I've had a small miracle! and maybe a big one, too!
Honestly. I still cannot quite believe it. I've been using reading glasses for nine or ten years. And with chronic fatigue syndrome, there is neurological damage because of some neurotoxin that affects your vision, so all of my vision had gone kind of blurry, not just my near vision.

But reading without my glasses was completely, totally impossible. If I got to work without them, I had to go downstairs and buy a pair.

Well, I am not wearing any glasses right now, and these are small letters on the screen.

I didn't use any glasses the entire day at work yesterday, and I even read the fine print on the back of a box of staples! You know, the stuff that said these staples are meant to be used in a saddle stapler? I read that without glasses!

I think this happened on my birthday, which was the third, which was the day of the full moon in cancer, which was opposite my 4th house Sun-Chiron and conjunct Uranus in 10th. I've also got Pluto conjunct my Mercury in the third but on the IC, which is also conjunct the GC thingey.

Anyway, I meditated and had all these strange feelings.

Later that day I noticed I could read without my glasses.

Today I was meditating. I usually say, "Thank you for taking from me that which keeps me separate", and sometimes I add other thank yous -- I had done that two days ago. Lots of thank yous for taking away lots of whatevers.

Today I said and thank you for taking away whatever is making me sick. I tell you, immediately I saw right in my head in that space where you see things "It is done", just big as could be.

I don't know, maybe I should keep that to myself. I have goosebumps.

?????????

I need to go find one of those little happy jumping-up-and-down thingeys. ah, yes. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce::bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

4. Thanks.

I'm still -- it can't be real, that's where I am. But I'm also not there.

I'm going to go outside, it is a beautiful day here. It is spring in my yard. The peonies and the bulbs are all coming up, unfortunately. I hope they don't get whacked. Maybe they won't.

The peonies really startled me. In northern New Jersey.

Oh, they did actually announce that we changed planting zones, from 6 (a or b?) to 7, I think. From the zone where it would occasionally get below zero, but never colder than 10 below, to the zone where it never goes below zero, pretty much.

Hmmm.


Anyway, I'm going out there to meditate a little bit in nature. We do have a lot of nature in our yard -- three ponds, lots of squirrels, chipmunks and birds. Some fish. At least one frog. But a tiny, very messy unfunctional house.

Bought the house for the yard.

Where is Votesomemore? Can we look at her chart with her roomy's?

Liz would say for him to fall in love with her like that, there must be some serious projection going on. Some "anima" business there.

I never got good at putting the whole thing together. Got stuck on all the separate little pieces.

10. Thank you.

I don't know his chart. I've posted mine here before. It looks like a mess to me.

I'll see if he knows his birth time. Think he was born in NEW JERSEY? I put that in caps, because there is a picante commercial. NEW JERSEY? I am Texas born and bred. So, see, it looks cute to make fun of New Jersey. Har. We eschew all things north east. That's the tradition, and we are stickin to it. Except when we talk about Howard Dean and the amazing things the Democrats are going to do. Even for us southern belles? Please?

Thanks for that thought. I would love Stella to look at my chart, but am too modest to ask. A modest Leo. hmm

But if we could make this a class project? I'm in.

edit: proofreading. Everyone who has any staying power in my life has been from the East Coast. I had one brief west coast thing. Current roommate, prior whatever that was, my son's dad. All orginiated on the East Coast! And I'm in Texas! They keep coming down here and harrassing me, right? Just kidding. Am I? I made my first husband move here. He was from freaking frozen Ohio! Ugh. He won't leave Texas now. Tried to drive him out, and he won't go. Californians even are moving here. So, this might be my moment to move out there and take their coast. If they haven't destroyed it yet.
yet edit again: No. There are some from actual Texas who stick around. We are more iffy.

Read thirdcoastactivist.org. And catch the wave.

Where they go, I will follow.

3. That was suggested to me by Sandra Ingerman.
She suggested I use the "Thank you for removing from me that which keeps me separate" one, and that one started me off on spontaneous kundalini yoga, which was startling, to say the least.

Yes, I cannot believe I am sitting here with no glasses!

I keep looking for them out of habit. They're not there. I don't need them.

7. If you want to keep
up with the people I know, it will take a small rolodex. Blame Divine Spirit.

So. This guy I had a fix with this past summer came over last night. He used to be a Mormon.
But what he described was a perfect Kundalini awakening. He called it, "feeling the Holy Spirit". But it started at his root and tore through the top of his head.

Interesting in that, the only other person I have heard describe the awakening was also a Mormon.
I kept asking my friend, what do they teach? How does that happen? He doesn't know.

Have you had that? How many here have expereinced it? I have not. It scares me. I have done a lot of breath work, which produces some amazing things. But Kundulini? Can't say that I have.

The word thing that Lil'D posted. Keep coming back to that. One word. "Together". I use it. That's what your affirmation reminds me of.

Even though I'm my same lonely self today, yesterday wasn't lonely and tomorrow won't be lonely. Which I attribute to the ho'ponoponopono affirmation. *I love you. I'm sorry. I forgive you. Will you forgive me.* Your's is a bit braver.

I have a book titled, "Take off your glasses and see". It is about people who recover their eyesight. With no surgery, thanks.

Thank you so much for sharing how that happened for you. I hope someday I'm willing and ready for the same miracle.

Your post also brings this to mind .. when I have stopped smoking, which is a persistant habit, it was revealed that the smoke was a way to cut myself off from other people. I'm not out of that. I still need it. It keeps me 'separate'. Your affirmation is very brave.

9. Just for your information, I've been posting Sandra's monthly...
transmutation newsletter at the beginning of every month ever since you mentioned her here.

I also really like what she says.

12. that is WAY cool!
i have had some similar experiences but never of that high degree

i had a horribly painful shoulder for months. i started visualizing it healing and asked for assistance

one day in the shower (about 4 days into the mediations) i was letting the water run on it and asked again and heard/felt a pop in my neck, a shiver went down my whole spine and I have been pain free since


basically the same thing happened about 5 years later with my hips


i'm so glad for you! well done!
