Mindfulness - Lucy, The Four-Legged Spiritual Coach

 Mindfulness is about living in the now. A core message of the Tarot cards is being totally present as life is happening. For instance, the Five of Cups points out the folly of crying over spilled milk.

Admittedly though our monkey minds keep jumping back to the past or fretting about the future. That's why welcoming a four-legged spiritual guide into our lives can be so helpful.


For me that has been Lucy (her new name post-adoption). I had been blessed to meet up with her at the Summit County Animal Control Shelter, based in Akron, Ohio. The gal knew how to "sell" herself. Immediately when they brought her out into the lobby she made friendly eye contact with me. Nothing too intense. About 10 years old, the Warden had found her stranded on the streets of Akron.

It was in the Meet and Greet room that Lucy immersed me in kisses. But there was no "overselling." She sensed she had sent her message. She parked herself near my chair.

As Lucy has embedded herself in my daily life she forces me into the present. I can't play with the future, for example, by doubling up Lucy's walks and ballgames today because I have a very busy tomorrow. She can't and won't align with futuring. 

Also, I get it that the treat of driving together to the lake and spending hours by the water can't be "stored." In the now Lucy also anticipates other treats the day after the lake fun.

The same being totally present is what Lucy is all about emotionally. She was all-sad-faced when I was at the computer a bit longer than she liked. But the minute she picked up the shut-down button she was all glowing eyes. 

It's sad in doing Tarot readings to observe that too many, tormented by the past and anxious about the future, don't allow their four-footed companions to teach them the deep lessons about life. Instead, they almost resent the nowness of the walk that has to take place and the reality that "good times" can't be stored.

The Elite Psychics - Cassanda Vanzant Provides Solution for Getting Clarity, Finally

Image
  Ever since The New York Times saluted the Tarot in April 2021as a tool for self-awareness and introspection, there has been massive interest in psychic readings. More recently the media designated psychics as the new therapists. However, that left those seeking guidance in a pickle. The issue is: How to select a psychic who is 1) authentic 2) caring and 3) will provide the results you need.  Long-time psychic Cassandra Vanzant observed that confusion. Her Ah-Ha moment was to develop a fresh approach to the "delivery" of the psychic connection. That is The Elite Psychics.  Excited about this breakthrough development in psychic services, I requested an exclusive interview with Vanzant.  *************************************************** THE ELITE PSYCHICS Q: With all the internet psychic sites to choose from, what makes your site, The Elite Psychics, different? A: I’ve worked for quite a few of these psychic online companies. Most prefer quantity over quality. ...

Aging - Holding On To Sense Of A Self

Image
  The Wall Street Journal fingers retirement for the epidemic of a loss of self among the aging.  However, the process can kick in as soon as anyone senses they are no longer young. Gone is their youthful self. Denying aging, they don't invest in creating a new self - and continually bringing up to date that identity. By time there is a shift from a demanding career to part-time, freelance, entrepreneurial or no work there is no emotional, physical and spiritual platform to keep building on. In the Tarot there are myriad cards which salute moving on and breaking free from the past, even though there is so much uncertainty about the present and the future.  My favorite card for that is the Eight of Cups. It is commonly called The Walking Away card. I prefer to refer to it as The Walking Toward card.  Cups symbolize emotion. There is certainly lots of that in leaving the past behind. The mountains stand for the unknowns. The sitting position recommends not rushing the...

We Are All Paul Weiss - And Now We Are Different

Image
 Paul Weiss has been the tipping point.  The Executive Order by the current administration - the third issued - got to us. How vulnerable we all are to power. Forget the grade school lessons about what America is about. Forget how university deans caved during our counterculture protests.  Yes, and forget "rights"  as being sacred. Here's what we now know. The key driven in that EO was that a lawyer who had been a partner at Paul Weiss years ago - Mark Pomerantz - had landed on the US President's enemies list. Of course there were other things about Paul Weiss, such as its mission for diversity, which didn't sit well with MAGA ideology. But that stuff probably was small potatoes. Pomerantz was the trouble spot. How obvious it became: We are all Paul Weiss.  Conversations I have with tarot-card clients, what I read in the media and what's turning up on professional anonymous networks Reddit and Fishbowl scream one message: Everyone can be a target for politica...
