Continued on my obsession with Saturn in Libra this weekend…
and watched FIERCE LIGHT film online…
…and a Youtube series on 2012 things both “troubling” and “uplifting…”
…and cleaned and swept, and fed the goats all this food from my mom’s house…
and celebrated my Ate’s birthday(!!!) and joked with my mother…
read up on the beginning of the 6th night according to Mayan Calendar Sciences…
and picked up kalyanamitras from the airport…
and viewed pics of the Berlin Wall 20th Celebration “tomorrow…”
and now…am trying to unwind for the night…
another big work week ahead…
Sending good thoughts out there to all my family and friends near and far…
Calling forth all that supports us to do our work in this lifetime…
ISANGHAMAHAL

PROTECTORS & GUIDES

AHO!

AHO!
in breath…
Out breath…
Metta…
Santi,

From Twitter:
Being depressed is a sign that ur mind is stuck in deep selfishness arising from wrong expectations. ~tsem tulku rinpoche
Dear Santa clause, for Xmas i want to SAVE THE WORLD FROM GLOBAL WARMING, DEFORESTATION & DESTRUCTION OF ANIMALS. P.S. and meet madonna.
Being urself is one step closer to the actual real enlightenment of a Buddha. So go for it!~ tsem tulku rinpoche
Blaming others is the ugly head of insecurity rearing itself up again. ~tsem tulku rinpoche

Saturn!
Again and again!
All good, I’ve accepted, all good, you are a teacher-friend.
Saturn enters Libra now and I’m trying to resource myself to understand its energies and qualities. Here are some sites I’ve visited and found some clarification:

Saturn in Libra moves through my 6th house.
Also, as a Sag rising, it is moving through my 11th house (or something like that!) I don’t really know all the details, but I’m tryna learn!

Good morning…
Setting a motivation…
Tasks of things-to-do heavy on the head already…
(and a breathing space in between, here and there…)
Establishing self in the present moment…
May the day be well…

Breathing…
remembering to breathe…
letting the tension and stress and mind-work take over…
forgetting that which is the Awareness over this present moment…
Beginning again…
Returning…
Stopping…
Releasing…
Breathing…
Calming…
Or mentally distracting…
again and again…
beginning again…
over and over…
the effort to lean into the moment…
as it is…
just like this…
Seeing everything dissolve into the breath
and the Awareness that lives in the breath…
One moment at a time…

Breathing in the fullness of Life with all of its bells of mindfulness…
to appreciate what we have in the present moment and stop to dwell in this refuge of gratitude…what a wonderful cause for happiness!
Seeing myself take the path of new beginnings, again and again and again…
what a wonderful cause for happiness!

To guide…
To be…
To vow…
To be in community and respect the community always…
To remember love always, in all ways…

Met with Soul Shamanic Sangha friends today to check in before the last three months of 11 Gateway Year arrives. We “made” it this far. This is it!
What will flower within us as the 11 Gateway Year comes to its completion?
What will be the emergence that appears?
What surprises will wake us up into more JOY and BEINGNESS?
How much can I ALLOW to happen without me participating in the DOING?
Will I surrender before I enter?
How much Karma will I bring into the Gateway?
Will it even survive upon entrance?
Will I? Will my small-self i survive? Will it hide somewhere I cannot detect or will not allow myself to detect? Will I be an accomplice to its survival and validation? Or will I allow the fullness of Being to completely burn away
