Hi Everybody
Well, for those of you who are still wondering what hit you during May's Mercury retrograde, if you missed the original article you can read all about it here. Luckily this small planet is once again on it's direct course and things are slowly starting to come together, get repaired or start moving again... At least until September that is :)
My May had me reeling for the most part, but I'd stocked up on patience when the electrics went haywire, or the emails went missing or misunderstandings and miscommunications were the order of the day. 'Vasbyt' to the 30th I kept saying :) And here we are, in a brand new month with an energy that is starting to unwind and move fluidly again.
I started doing reiki on a horse last month, as much for my benefit as his, and it has been the most incredible and humbling experience. I can see why Kirtsy chose to work with the animals! They give as much as they get and their love is so pure and unconditional. There is a depth to them you don't notice through the day to day running around, and only in the quietness of gentle bonding do you truly see how much you can learn from them, and how much they have to offer if you would only choose to take a few moments to be still with them and receive :)
Firehawk has become as much my healer as I could be considered his, and it has been such an honour. So maybe I needed the halting energy of this Mercury retrograde to see what I am missing when I'm always on the go... Did you maybe find the same thing? Maybe we shouldn't wait for this planet to take it's much dreaded backwards course through the skies to see what we are missing, maybe we should take time out willingly every now and then to stop and smell the roses as it were... and if you don't get to it, remember there's always the next one in September... So when it rolls on again, don't wave your fists at the skies in contempt, but rather take the time that this energy affords you as everything around you comes to a halt and smile a while, take in the beauty of a sunset, and stop to smell those roses :)
For those of you interested in a healing path, we are running Gaea level 1 on the 20th of this month and Usui Reiki level 1 on the first weekend in July, so please visit the course diary for more information. Bookings for this months Pranic Indian Head Massage course have already closed, the next one available for bookings is the 9th & 15th of August.
Enjoy this months newsletter and have a stunning month!
Wishing you much love, light and happiness

Big Deals. Little Deals. And Paying Attention
It is cold this morning for May. There is a bird outside singing the word “procedure.” She sings it four consecutive times and stops. And then she sings it again. “Procedure procedure procedure procedure!” (Yesterday there was one singing “Etcetera. Etcetera. Etcetera!” My birds are so over “peep” and “tweet.” ) The deck is covered with oak tags from the heavy rains we’ve had. Among the oak tags are many soggy heaps of dryer lint. I had the brilliant idea to leave dryer lint out for the birds...more

On Global Warming
Polar bears stranded on melting icebergs, unable to make it back to solid ice, who then starve to death. It’s a terrible reminder of just how far humans have strayed away from Nature, polluting and destroying the balance of the place that is supposed to be our home...more

The Prophet on Buying and Selling
And a merchant said, "Speak to us of Buying and Selling." And he answered and said:
To you the earth yields her fruit, and you shall not want if you but know how to fill your hands. It is in exchanging the gifts of the earth that you shall find abundance and be satisfied.
Yet unless the exchange be in love and kindly justice, it will but lead some to greed and others to hunger...more
