Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate!
As a vegetarian since age 19 (that's 34 years and counting, in case you haven't guessed my age by my hair color), I was especially excited to get a phone call from my sister in California last weekend, as she and her husband were on their way to the Farm Sanctuary for the Festival of the Turkeys. This is an annual event at a farm where abused farm animals are cared for and allowed to live out their days peacefully and in comfort.
Part of the annual event is a ritual where the people feed pumpkin pie TO the turkeys!
My sister is the "Healthy Living" blog writer for the San Francisco Examiner, and posted a video of their experience at this link:
Farm Sanctuary
The brief talk at the end by Compassionate Cook Colleen Patrick-Goudreau is especially inspirational.
I hope all are enjoying your own versions of this holiday -- and my deep gratitude to each of you for sharing in this journey with me.
Blessings,
Pam

Grounding
It seems that doing a grounding exercise is particularly important now. I've had two occasions in the past several days when odd physical symptoms went away as soon as I did a visualization of sending a grounding cord from my second chakra into the heart of the Earth.
Happy New Moon, everyone!
Happy New Moon, everyone!

Pluto-Saturn symbols
Already this morning, a few interesting events that seem symbolic of the square between Pluto in Capricorn and Saturn in Libra:
- I awoke to find that the clock in our bathroom had stopped overnight (Saturn rules time, Pluto rules the elimination/cleansing process).
- While walking our dogs at the park, we watched a crow, flying very low, chase a squirrel all the way across the parking lot. Crow represents integrity and our willingness to walk our talk (Saturn) and Squirrel indicates the need to release clutter on all levels (Pluto).
- And, it is no surprise that my husband and I had a minor disagreement (Libra rules relationships, and Capricorn rules authority).
So, starting the day off with fanfare!

The quiet before the storm?
The air feels very still this morning, and the feeling of anticipation continues. Tomorrow (Sunday, November 15) is the first Pluto-Saturn square, representing a tension that is ready to be released. The question, of course, is where and how, and what effects we will feel.
I find it interesting that the intermagnetic field is southerly this morning, and fairly strong -- which means the solar wind is more easily able to enter Earth's atmosphere, bringing us new information and energy directly from the Sun. Perhaps it is providing us with the ideas and creativity needed as we move into the changes ahead of us. It does feel supportive of our progress -- so this may be an especially good morning to remain open to insights and ideas.

The 11-11-11 portal
Yesterday was 11-11-11 (2+0+0+9=11), and I'd love to know your experiences.
For me, I woke up feeling "buzzed" -- as if I had an infusion of caffeine, but without the jitters. That feeling lasted all day, until I had an energy treatment in the late afternoon that took me in a slightly different direction.
My first client of the day said she was also feeling very energized, and that it was a "no-coffee-needed day." My second client said that her day had been so busy, she hadn't had a moment to sit and consider that the energy might be moving differently than usual.
That heady feeling has continued in some form today (Thursday), the sense of not really being connected to reality as usual. I've spent the day doing readings, which often leaves me feeling a bit other-worldly anyway. But I'm sensing this is more than "just" the after-session buzz.
So what are you feeling since Wednesday? Anything to report?

November
This new month has been feeling quite different than the last, almost from the first day. October now looks to have been a plateau -- not without events to consider, but a time when many unfolding situations seemed to pause in their process.
This week, by comparison, has involved a lot of movement, and that feeling of anticipation continues. Situations that had been off radar for much of October are now building again, ready to move to the next stage.
We're going through a vibrational upgrade, and next week is evidently a time when we'll feel the energy strongly. Be sure to take care of your physical body by getting plenty of rest, eating well and taking in lots of water. And if emotions come up, feel them but don't attach to them by trying to explain them or justify them -- and then let them go.
Evidently, anger has an initial burst that lasts about 90 seconds -- and then, if we don't hold onto it, it just dissipates. Perhaps the other negative emotions have a similar process.
One way to deal with fear is to change it into excitement. They're the same feeling in the body, actually -- it's just how our mind interprets the feeling that makes the difference.
We can either feel fearful of the unknown, or excited about new possibilities. A great time to practice that shift point!

Setting -- and stating -- our intentions
We all are aware of the importance of setting intentions -- but what may not be realized is the importance of saying them out loud.
Our minds are constantly going this way and that, perhaps thinking positively for a while, then slipping into negativity, then bouncing back again, perhaps when we've realized where our train of thought was leading our energy. So it's a good thing that thoughts themselves don't carry the same power energetically as the spoken word -- otherwise, our lives would be in (more?) chaos, trying to keep up with the conflicting thoughts.
That's one reason why our guides and higher self must wait until we clearly state our intentions before stepping in to help us manifest them. And, they must also abide by the rules of free will, which dictate that we must consciously request assistance before it can come to us. And that's where speaking our intentions aloud is vital.
A recent channeling by Marlene Swetlishoff offered some specific words to use for those who want to participate actively in the energy shifts underway. I've adapted them to fit my needs, and have been finding them a powerful way to begin each morning. If you're looking for some statements to use for your own intentions, I offer these, for you to adapt as suits your needs:
Today, I request and receive downloads of high vibrational energies, DNA upgrades and activations, the activation of my dormant DNA strands, and new ideas, solutions and creativity. I ask for this for the Highest Good of all concerned.
Today, I request that the veils of forgetfulness and the veils of separation be lifted from me, in perfect Divine timing.
Today, I intend to align with the new Earth reality of harmony, love and joy. I embody my own Light Body and see my heart chakra radiating Golden Light. This light radiates out into my higher chakras, creating a great column of Golden Light. This light assists me in aligning with the Highest vibrational frequency levels.
Today, I wish to increase my frequency level. I call to the beings of Divine Light who are assisting me to help raise and magnify my vibrational frequencies. I wish to hold and anchor these higher energies until the next time I will be working with and requesting the increase of these energies.
Today, I call to the beings of Divine Source Energy who are assisting me to help me create, embody, express and emanate the frequency of Love.
And don't forget -- speak your intentions out loud, and with a strong knowing of the power behind the requests you are making.
Blessings to all,
Pam
