The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And, because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change until we notice how our failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds. Author: R. D. Laing Source: NoneJust the
The sun is rising here in the hot Phoenix sky. The colors are brilliant as Father Sol rises up over the mountains tops in the horizon. Yet as we continue to look, the mist, the fog lets us see this beautiful scene in different colors, different ways, perhaps here a bear, perhaps another cloud an eagle.
The way we look at things, looking at every aspect of the situation, can help us realize there are 2 sides to every circumstance. We can observe all the negative parts of the problem, failing to see the positive in these things. All things in our life has negative positive, opposites, male, female, Even a car battery has a negative , positive, a plant has male, female. Being very observant to something, even just one thing positive in an unbearable situation many times can make it seem just a little more bearable, just a little more easier for us to have hope, and peace about it. Many times just observing how it affects others around us, observing their spiritual growth. Being conscious of both sides gives us a clearer picture, a better idea of what to do next. Observe the little stuff without sweating it, while seeing the whole picture as well.
Animal totem:Bear: reflection, introspection, strength, giving ourselves inventory. Bear goes into the cave to hibernate, letting this medicine think about what has happened, how to proceed next. Bear medicine gives us strength to rest, then go forward toward our goals. If Bear is our totem we do have the visions, the strength of our dreams to give us answers for what is next that we should do.
Herbal magick: Blackberry leaf: Blackberries are prominent all over my property on the Buffalo River in Tennesse. All along the undeveloped 18 acres, beneath thorns, high weeds, in the brush, the big luscious beauties are ripe right now. We have to use waders high to the thigh, so we don’t get snake bit, or chiggers ( oh they are awful) but the juicy fresh fruit is high in antioxidants, vit C. and E. The tea or wine is sweet, with the ability to ward off the darker moods, thoughts or spirits that want to plague us. Using the leafs in tea, or work sends evil back to whoever would send it to us.
Blackberry Cobbler:
1 cup all-purpose flour 1 1/2 cups white sugar, divided 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt
tablespoons cold butter 1/4 cup boiling water 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1/4 cup cold water 1 tablespoon lemon juice 4 cups fresh blackberries, rinsed and drainedDirections
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. In a large bowl, mix the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Mix in remaining 1 cup sugar, lemon juice, and blackberries. Transfer to a cast iron skillet, and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Drop dough into the skillet by spoonfuls. Place skillet on the foil lined baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until dough is golden brown. From allsrecipes
Tarot card: Devil He comes in with temptation. There is lust, lies, anger, jealousy, the devil shows us hate and many hurtful things. When devil shows up, we know that everything is superficial, physical, greed, anxious actions have been taken. This card is not to be taken lightly and can be quite hurtful depending on the surrounding cards. When it appears in a reading, be gentle, tactful, as the seeker is hurt.
