Dear Yogis,

We had a great yoga lunch on Saturday – our last for the year. Folk absent due to flu, but a “newbie” so all is well.  Maybe you can join us in the new year…?

THE TAROT PICK FOR THE DAY…  Sometimes I pick from MOON CARDS, not just my own (I use the deck I am drawn to).  They are very simple cards – ask Dr.Google.  The card I have chosen for today is THE ORB.

What the Orb Means for Me Today

The Orb card reminds me of my infinite potential,  It is a welcome encouragement to pursue an opportunity for spiritual growth and self-reflection, embracing the challenges that come along with this spiritual journey,  stepping stones to a higher state of consciousness. It also serves as a reminder not allow yourself to put others onto pedestals or follow too closely what the group demands. Remain open to the wisdom of the universe and trust in the unknown, for it holds much untapped potential.

 

HOME FRONT:  I upgraded my set top boxes.  It was a bit of a trial, but it is done.  I lost all my beautiful recordings (trust no-one, although foxtel did say it was a “no-option” position).  

WHATS ON.

Dear Yogis,

Don’t forget our last Yoga Lunch for the year this Saturday at 12 noon at the New Moon Saloon. Woodend.  Please let me know if you are coming if you haven’t already done so.  

 

THE TAROT PICK FOR THE DAY…

Sometimes I pick from MOON CARDS, not just my own (I use the deck I am drawn to).  The card I have chosen for today is FIRST QUARTER MOON.  This refers to a new phase in my life, deepening commitment and encourages me to move forward with courage and positivity.  I have the power to transform this new way into something profound and exciting.  This card is a beacon of hope, transformation and joyful exploration.  It tells me to keep moving forward with courage and determination.  Have you chosen your card? (you can confer with Mr. Google)

 

HOME FRONT:

I like watching television and there have been memorable shows over the last couple of years which I have recorded BUT I am being forced to upgrade my set box, and I will lose them all.  There does not seem to be a way to save them – I will miss them and will look at the recording device on the new set box in a different way, and try to find way to record, the things I love in another way.  What a nuisance.

OPTOMETRISTS

My eyes have always been important to me, and I thought with good nutrition and yoga I was doing the best for them.  I thought the proof was that I am no longer sensitive to sunlight!  Yesterday I had my eyes tested, no measurable change since my last test 5 years ago!! How time passes, however, the optometrist said something in passing I needed to know.  She said that I should be wearing sunglasses because they protect my eyes against cataracts which can be grow when there is an abundance of UV interference in the eyes.  It is not just about sensitivity – it is PROTECTION.

So now I have taken my sunglasses out of the bottom drawer, ordered a new pair, and am very happy – Anna Wintour stand back.  Here is the new me.  I will photograph when I have my new sunglasses – please get yours out of mothballs. And make sure you are getting plenty of B1 and fish oil.

WHATS ON.

Dear Yogis

At last I have finished the TAROT with Chakras and Numbers. EVERYTHING DIVINATION. I have included all of my deck, the Revelation Tarot, plus the Gates and Guardians, PLUS CHAKRA REFERENCES, PLUS I have included the entire PENDULUM COURSE – All in one package.  60+ pages – the biggest book I have put on the web.  You can download it for only $25.  What a terrific Christmas gift.

 

THIS MORNING THE LIGHTS WENT OUT  I know that we will have to deal with this more and more.

If you watched “THE REAL COST OF NET ZERO” you will know that we are in for even bigger electricity costs and problems as we lurch into the alternative “opportunities” for “FREE” energy. You are grown-ups and know by now that nothing is free.  Nothing!!.    The sun only shines during the day, the wind doesn’t blow all the time.  In the alternative energy plan, windmills, thousands of them, will march across deforested hills and countryside.  The photo to the left is a hotel in the desert – they are fine. No windmills.  Thick walls, millions of gallons of easy access, clean artesian water,  sunshine most of the year…  that is not you and me.

Using the waves in the ocean could work but no-one is speaking of this, clean coal could work but politicians with vested interest in huge electricity prices are just not interested,  and are planning to destroy LoyYang our last power station to guarantee their earnings.  They can afford to come off the grid – they can afford huge reliable home battery sources, but we cannot.  Be careful what you vote for.  Australia is already slipping backwards,  we can’t afford to let more of our industries go overseas, or sell our gas so we can buy it back at inflated prices.  Check out the “pollies” –  they have vested interests, their spare cash invested in alternatives,  no matter the cost to you and me.

Microsoft has just purchased FIRE ISLAND nuclear power station in the USA. Why?  Because they know they will need cheap, unlimited,  reliable energy and water to keep their lights on and the profits rolling in.  Nuclear will give them this.

Trump is illiterate, a misogynist, dreadful in many respects, even a felon, but he will bulldoze everyone to get the lights back on at prices the middle and lower/ impoverished poorer classes can afford..  He knows that without clean coal, without gas and oil America (like Australia) will go down the gurgler.  Think about it..  If we go down this road to an “alternative future”  we really will be (as Keating said) “A banana republic”.  

It is not “alternatives or…” I think we need a mix – “alternatives and….”, we need to embrace our environment plus the mineral deposits, clean coal and advances in these energy sources as well as alternatives.  As Buddha says – we need to take “THE MIDDLE PATH”.
