Just a reminder today about kindness. Even though the world is in panic mode right now doesn’t mean that kindness and compassion should take a back seat. The little things still matter and we can still do things for others. We can all make a difference and bring cheer and hope even during difficult situations.
Good Morning Beautiful Souls, grab a cup of your favorite morning brew and start things off with “Today’s Inspirations”. I hope you find something here that will make you feel good or help you on your path today.
Blessings, Cat

Spirit Library: Vital Part (a message fromKate Spreckley)
We are in a significant cycle of humanity’s growth and evolution where the cosmic cycles of the universe are merging to birth a collective integration of awakened consciousness. Thus this is a time where a new era is being birthed.
Ostara, the spring equinox, falls around March 21 in the northern hemisphere. It is a season of balance, when the light is equal to the darkness. This is a great time to celebrate the rebirth of the soil and the land.
MBG: Feeling Stuck? Shake It Up With This Ritual For Earth Signs
Earth signs are the dependable, wise, and stable group of the zodiac. Tauruses, Virgos, and Capricorns are known for their grounding energy, their trustworthiness, and reliability—and potentially, their love of routine and stability.
1. A sense of inability to act in a given situation, usually with regard to love. If the paralysis was total, then the dream may fear taking a certain action. It could be whether or not to declare his love, propose marriage, or break up. If the paralysis was only partial, sexual inhibitions could be the problem.
2. The dreamer may feel inhibited or blocked from moving ahead with plans for major changes in her life due to circumstances beyond her control.

Pioneer Thinking: Making Candles from Old Candles
Ever wonder what to do with the little bit of candle wax left at the bottom of the candle jar? Do you throw away the candle wax when the wick has burned down? Well, stop throwing your money away. Candles have not lost their usefulness just because they have burned down so small they are no longer safe to light. Candles can be re-used. I am going to walk you through a four step process of how to make new candles from used ones.

________________________ Patheos-Pagan: Irish-American Witchcraft: ‘Celtic’ Paganism and Ancestry
I’ve seen a noticeable uptick in the last several months among US-based Celtic* pagans (in particular) of the idea that ancestry is in some way essential to a Celtic pagan spirituality. I’m going to be honest: I find that idea concerning, so I decided that I’d write about it today and try to dig into the concept.
“What is this self inside us, this silent observer, Severe and speechless critic, who can terrorize us, And urge us on to futile activity, And in the end, judge us still more severely, For the errors into which his own reproaches drove us?”
— T. S. Eliot
How do you talk to yourself? Would you talk that way to anyone else?
Our thoughts create our reality. How do you typically think about yourself? Do you berate yourself for being stupid, sloppy, forgetful or insensitive? Do you watch yourself with interest, respect and compassion? Stay alert to your self-talk and let go of judgments that don’t serve you.
“Self-acceptance is my refusal to be in an adversarial relationship to myself.”

Animals
“Some animals, like some men, leave a trail of glory behind them. They give their spirit to the place where they have lived, and remain forever a part of the rocks and streams and the wind and sky.”
-Marguerite Henry, 1953
My favorite movie in 2003 was “Seabiscuit.” The horse was as much a character in that movie as the people that his human co-stars portrayed. You could feel Seabiscuit’s love and determination shine. He faced hard times, and overcame tragedy, and contributed so much to the people who came into his life. It’s an amazing story, and one that shows the important lessons we can learn from animals.

Today’s quote is about letting go of the things we cannot control and to some extent priorities. Every day we struggle to cram as much into our day as possible. The truth is that we don’t really need to. The key is in learning that it’s okay to say no and change our routine. Too often we continue to do things out of habit even when we no longer need to do them or even enjoy them. As you go about your day look for the things that weigh you down and let something go. Create a little extra space, after all, you deserve to shine!

Spring is the time of year when the cycle of life, death, and rebirth is complete. As plants bloom and new life returns, the theme of resurrection is ever present. As Ostara, the spring equinox, arrives, it’s the season for that which has gone dormant to become revitalized, alive, and reborn.

“We humans should never forget our capacity to connect with the collective spirit of animals. Their energy is essential to our future growth.”

Whether or not we have pets, or an affinity for animals, we need to show them our respect and appreciation. We are all in this together – “all” meaning every living creature on this planet. It troubles me that some of our beautiful animals are being so badly mistreated. We have a responsibility to allow animals their space in this world, and to not interfere to the point of causing pain and even extinction.

Healthy body, healthy mind. We all know that both mind and body benefit from being active. However just like the body also benefits from periods of rest so does the mind. An overactive mind happens for many reasons such as stress, anxiety, worry, or even anger just to name a few. While meditation can work wonders there are times when it just doesn’t cut it. Try finding an activity or project that has absolutely nothing to do with whats going on in your head. Just let your mind be still, breathe and strive for stillness.

“…self-contempt never inspires lasting change.”
— Jane R. Hirschmann and Carol H. Munter
I can suck myself down into a deep, black hole when I focus on what I think I SHOULD be… more loving, sexy, productive, whatever. Thinking I should be something else means I’m not good enough now. This is poverty thinking and a guaranteed way to be miserable.
I can let go of this suffering by accepting WHAT IS. I can say, “This is how I am right now and that’s okay.”
When I first tried this, I could say it but not believe it. Then I began to experience the freedom this perspective brings – just by changing my mind! Now I’m beginning to believe it. What a gift!

“Animals are such agreeable friends — they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms.”
-George Eliot, 1857
The animals we are most familiar with are our pets. At some point in our lives, I’m sure we’ve all had at least one pet. I certainly have had quite a few, and I learned something from each and every one of them. Suki is the cat who lives with us right now. I can’t really call her “mine” because she is very much her own cat! There is an unconditional love that happens between pets and companions; it’s very comforting. If only we could all be such agreeable friends.

Facing challenges is a part of life and when we face them we have a choice of how we deal with them. We can ignore them, freak out over them or meet them head-on and say “let’s do this!” When we meet them head-on we find that our mind is calm and we are focused on making things happen. This ultimately helps us to take things as they come and go with the flow which opens the doors to new opportunities.
If March comes in like a lion, it will go out
like a lamb.
If March comes in like a lamb, it will go out
like a lion.
-old weather saying
The March moon is called the Storm Moon (medieval England), probably due to the fact that March is known to have some major storms caused by earth changes brought about as spring approaches. The weather saying above is an old one and you have probably heard someone use at one time or another. According to the Old Farmer’s Almanac ” Some skywatchers believe that there’s a heavenly connection. The constellation Leo, the lion, is rising in the east at the beginning of March, hence the “comes in like a lion,” while Aries, the ram, sets in the west at the end of March, and so “will go out like a lamb.” Other names for this moon are Fish Moon (colonial America), Sleepy Moon (china), Windy Moon (Cherokee), Big Famine Moon (Choctaw), When Eyes Are Sore From Bright Snow Moon (Dakota), Moon of Winds (Celtic), Palolo Worm Moon (New Guinea), Full Sap Moon ( for tapping the maple trees), Full Crow Moon (the northern Indian tribes said that the cawing of the crows meant winter was ending), and the old settlers called it the Lenten Moon and considered it the last full moon of winter.
The Storm Moon of March is the herald of Ostara and Spring. Winters snow will soon give way to spring rain. The first of the seasons’ new growth is already showing, the days are longer and the Sun is climbing higher in the sky. So too are we experiencing new beginnings and new growth. The time has come to clean and prune away the old debris that keeps us from moving forward. This much needed inner spring cleaning provides us with a new outlook and helps us to bloom, even during difficult times. Magical workings, meditations, and healing should focus on personal growth and rebirth during this moon.
To enhance your magical endeavors try wearing the colors of spring, greens, yellows or lavender, and adorn yourself with aquamarine, bloodstone, quartz crystal or jade. Use the scents of honeysuckle and apple blossom to create springs essence of hope and vibrancy to your altar, home or workspace.
Good Morning Beautiful Souls, grab a cup of your favorite morning brew and start things off with “Today’s Inspirations”. I hope you find something here that will make you feel good or help you on your path today.
Blessings, Cat

The sages all say that the path to liberation is found in entering the stillness within. To experience that stillness, we need to be willing to regularly stop the activity for a while.
How do we do this in a busy life? We set our priorities. Perhaps it means giving up a TV program or using a coffee break to grab a few moments of solitude. Perhaps we have to ask our partner, relative or neighbour to give us 30 minutes of time away from the kids. If we really want something, we can make it happen.

Evolution
“The whole process of evolution, for the Spirit, is an awakening to the truths, and the means of implementation of those truths, that are eternally present in itself.”
-N. Sri Ram (1889- ?)
Evolution in this case means growth, and especially spiritual growth. In the definition above, evolution seems to be a natural process – an “awakening.” Whether we wake up gradually, with the light of dawn, or suddenly, with some kind of an alarm, we do wake up. It is in the awakened state that we are productive. And in the spiritually awakened state the infinite possibilities of the universe are as much a reality to us as the start of a new day.

Our ego focuses on how we are different from the rest of the world. We connect with soul when we experience how we are the same.

Evolution
“A vital force is active in every individual and leads it towards its own evolution.”
-Maria Montessori (1870-1952)
If our purpose is to learn and to grow, then evolution is inevitable. We are drawn towards that which challenges us, which strengthens us, which supports us in our endeavors – all of life is evolution. We can’t turn it off. We can accelerate the process, by putting ourselves out there and experiencing what life has to offer and by making things happen for ourselves. And we can embrace the process, and enjoy the process, because we know that it just gets more wonderful and exciting and fulfilling as we go along.

Daily Tarot: The Sun
You can expect to have that long-anticipated ‘ah-ha!’ moment regarding your love life today. The Sun’s rays are far-reaching and they are able to bring relevant details to light that haven’t been able to come out in plain sight in the past. Vanity has no place when it comes to the new knowledge you are suddenly privy to. Use it wisely and with proper restraint.
