Ben?

#SpiritSign

Night Dream
...flash... people living in luxe buses in the mall parking lot...
...driving around, wandering around inside, I met a tubby guy, dark hair, in his 40s.
His brother and parents were there too, seeming proud that he was interested in me.
He walks me to my car, telling me about a restaurant he wants to take me to.
He has me writing down his name on a piece of scrap paper. It's Benny (with a y, not ie) I say to myself.

IRL
I wake up. The TV is muted and "Celebrity Name Game" is on. Courtney Cox from "Friends" is playing charades to get the contestant to say "Ben Stiller." I mentally tell her to mention Ross' son, Ben, from her show. She passes.

I turn the channel. As I'm thinking about my dream and wondering if there's anything to this Ben thing, I realize the character on the screen of "The Young and the Restless" is Dr. Ben Rayburn, but I didn't notice at first because he goes by Stitch.

I open my email, reading the first one by Benebell Wen. Think nothing of it.
I turn to facebook and search Ben. First name that comes up is Benebell. Oh...! BENebell.

All of this within 30 minutes...

Alright, Spirit-Team. Let's see where this goes!

Even More.... it keeps coming
Ben = a rat

Seven Times Seven of Water

 

Personally, when I see the 7 of Water my intuition is pointing out how blessed I am with so many amazing ideas, plus nudging me toward focusing on the highest/best one for best results.

Got it. Choose the best one and get on with it, right?

What does it mean, though, when the 7 of Water keeps showing up? Is Spirit screaming, "yes!, do .this." all the more? Or, is Spirit pointing out that I don't exactly have the message right yet?

This all started day before yesterday when my Sacred Writing Assignment from Sofia Wren lead me to draw upon the tarot. Along with the Nine of Earth, I pulled the 7 of Water from the Anna K. Tarot and I did not resonate with the message at all, which, according to her LWB was of being "delusional." I journaled about my own meaning, and then backed my own intuition up with the meaning given in the Gaian Tarot LWB, which I totally resonated with; "Narrow down your options and choose one dream out of many."

Later, I posted just a picture of my writing and Sofia Wren validated my own intuition even further. She too had pulled the 7 of Water and her interp is "Dare to Dream Big!" Resonating!!! Message received.

Then, yesterday, at Toucan's with Dean, hanging there together were seven lovely lanterns, so pretty it caught my eye. I wanted to take a picture, but thought the patrons might think I was photographing them and not be very happy about it.

Then, today, in Robert Moss's stream, as soon as I read this, it clearly spoke 7 of Water to me once again.

I'm reading, 

Choose the highest best. Make it easy. Do what I love the most.

Coming full circle, the Seven of Water and the Nine of Earth show up together on my Epiphanies Tarot collection stream.

Sometimes Spirit is willing to keep presenting an important message until I'll finally get it.
What do I love the most? What is that thing that is fun and easy?

Enjoy the Now and Be Excited about the Next

Last night, I played along in Robert Moss's "Coincidence Card Game" 

as part of his 12-week Active Dreaming course.

The way it's played is everyone submits a dream or memory
of 100 words or less to be made into a random oracle card.
Then, each of us receives one of those oracle cards in answer to a pre-written question.
Then, we post our first impressions and let other students throw in their "if it were my card" intuitions. 

Here's the advice I received from our group:

So, in drawing all the tens in tarot with lessons of ten years ago in mind...

(I'm having a hard time bringing up memories from 2006.... so I'll just write about the first memory that comes to mind for each card)

Tens... full circle, ends connecting to new beginnings...

Memories of the 10 of Earth = deciding to retire from QP

Lessons = giving in to the desire to be home with family

Memories of the 10 of Fire = responsibilities 

Lessons = realizing what's really worth it in my life, and not

Memories of the 10 of Air = the affair

Lessons = blessings and burdens of being human, respecting freewill, valuing honesty and connection, and knowing new boundaries

Memories of the 10 of Water = my dad living with us, and moving out

Lessons = deep appreciation for family

I'm remembering that period in my life as the best of times ~ worst of times.

In answer to my request for guidance on being popular and profitable in my biz:

I'm feeling that this is a wait-and-see time of endings and new beginnings, a coming full circle, a time to decide what's really worth doing... and not doing.

So, for now, I'll just stay tuned, and know...

"I am enjoying the now and excited for what's coming next."
