Judgement – An effective distraction from our own crap piles

On a small island we get to see community with the good and the hmmmm challenging, and it’s very easy to observe and be impacted if we so choose, because there are so few of us.

This week I’m hiding the bedsheets, the ropes, the lashes, making sure there are no hangin’ ropes on trees. It’s been a week of judgy, judgy, judgy …… blame, blame, blame …… should, should, should……. on FaceBook or should we say, FacelessBook, say what you want without having to look the person in the face.

…….. and yes I am not innocent in this, my Itty Chitty Bitty Committee/Monkey mind/Internal dialogue has been in on the action, yeee haaa! We are sooooo entertained, there’s so much to judge, and now I even get to make a blog post about it……

What I have noticed about myself this week, I still distract myself from my own crap by induldging myself in judging others.

What I noticed was that every judgement I had was related to something about me that was unresolved, not forgiven, in need of some healing ……. yes, yet again, the journey continues.

So when that awareness arose to the surface again I thought ……. (Man I love my dots, okay no, just distracted again)

  • Perhaps the only love the addict experiences daily is from their dog, and is the only thing keeping them alive
  • Perhaps the logging is to pay for someones end of life care as they have Alzheimers
  • Perhaps someone choosing to not get vaccinated is the choice that keeps them alive

Perhaps none of the above is true ……..

What is true is that I can’t possibly know, and I’ll make a more positive impact on myself and the world at large, by healing myself and going out into the world a more healed being, rather than sitting in judgement of myself and others. That will just lead to more icecream (I Scream) and unhappiness, which is such a waste on a beautiful island full of beautiful people.

Faux pas accomplished, forgiveness hmmmm?

I’ve been pretty vigilant in watching where I’m putting my attention so that I stay out of fear during these times and focus on what brings me joy and is important in my world. So today after a meditation I went to do my groceries. We have a small grocery store here on Gabe but they have been awesome with wiping things down, controlling the flow of folks in the store, writing happy sayings in chalk on the sidewalk as you come in and out and also putting tape down on the floor indicating the flow of people traffic as well as marking out the 2m distance everywhere.

I’m now in the meat section and a woman comes up and stands right next to me, yes right next to me. Out of my mouth comes ‘Seriously!’ Now this wasn’t the interested ‘Hmmm Seriously?’, or the I can’t believe it that’s so interesting ‘Wow Seriously?’, no this was the ‘What the f__k dic_hea_ ‘Seriously?’, yup a whole lot of anger and incredulity spewed out of my mouth before I had a chance to filter it, all in one word. She looked at me (I’m not sure with shock or not), but I realized I had just sent a whole lot of anger her way, so I tried to reign it back in with ‘Please watch your distance’ in a neutral tone (I think). She was angry and stormed away, oh well shit happens. Also I’m apparently not quite as zenn as I thought!

What happened next was what interests me. As I was driving home, the guilt over sending that much anger her way, when she may have just made a mistake having perhaps been in lala land and not even noticed where she was going, and I had also made a mistake in the grocery isle not seeing the ‘arrows’ on the floor for people flow, and gone the wrong way until I saw them. So mistakes happen. I then started sending her forgiveness and love via the ether, I did it a few times to balance things out. Then I realized I needed to forgive myself, hmmmm not so easy. Much easier to forgive her than myself.

It reminded me that in our shamanic teachings we always forgive ourselves first, as the flogging of ourselves over mistakes has such an impact to every moment. Also when we don’t do our forgiveness work the mistakes and the guilt over them accumulates snowballing into all kinds of nasty consequences in our lives.

So a reminder that mistakes are normal, it’s how we learn and grow.

Self Forgiveness is essential to learning from those mistakes, and getting better at not flogging ourselves over them.

I’ve taken a chill pill figuratively speaking, done my forgiveness work and now all is well in my world again.

Your Mind is Your Bitch, You Have the Power!

So don’t go getting all bent out of shape, the term ‘Bitch’ here is gender neutral and a metaphor people!

Adapt this post to where you live. If you live in a city, break things down to your local community and/or circle of peeps.

Duh

So is the sky falling? Well no, we definitely have serious shit to get through, but if you allow your mind to focus on fear, panic and the constant barrage of media announcements, well ……….

Then you are ‘The Bitch’ of COVID-19 and I don’t know about you, but I’m bigger than COVID-19 and I’m not allowing a friggin’ virus to take my power!

So yes,
~ Do your due diligence in finding out the facts
~ Take necessary precautions
~ Be a fabulous Gabriolan and take care of each other (Vancouverite, Torontonian, etc.)
~ Checking on those at risk or alone
~ Then let it go.

If you allow yourself
to keep this virus
as the focus of your attention
then that is where you will be.

Day in and day out,
creating stress in all your bodies,
mental, emotional and physical,
this is what impacts your immune system
making you more susceptible to disease.

So part of necessary precautions from my perspective is:
~ Keep calm
~ De-stress
~ Kick paranoia to the curb when somebody coughs
~ Has just been in Vancouver
~ Or has a cold,
~ Don’t take all available resources out of the grocery stores etc.
leave some for others.

We are Gabriolans,
we have a long history of taking care of each other,
of supporting each other,
let’s keep doing that…….

Not giving in to fear and panic.
Even if some of us get sick,
we will get through this better
by being our usual kind compassionate selves.

One of the reasons I have stayed on Gabriola
was for exactly this eventuality,
that when the shit hits the fan,
I know there will be community support.

So …… step up,
take control of your brain,
your internal dialogue,
watch what you watch, read, say and do.

I’m not saying it’s easy,
but I do think it’s necessary for me anyway,
to keep living and not just start existing
as COVID-19’s Bitch!

Bite me COVID-19 I am a warrior! AND no-body’s Bitch!

Pay It Forward Act, Saves a Life ~ Mayan Daykeeper Ahaw

Tomorrow we start a new 20 day cycle. What’s the focus your guess is as good as mine.

In Pickering, Ontario on July 18th 2017 a man who was in the habit of paying it forward by buying a coffee for the person behind him in a Tim Hortons line up, had no idea that his simple act of kindness would help shift a persons feelings and stop them from ending their life. We usually don’t see the ripples we make, but this story illuminates how being your best self changes the world, whether you see it or not. From DurhamRegion.com here’s the story.

humane, humanity, pay it forward, kitten, daisies, medicine wheel, shamanism, mayan, daykeeper, ahaw, cycles, time, completion, end, all-seeing, healing through ceremony.com, michele fire-river heart

Mayan Daykeeper Ahaw ~ The essence of Ahaw is completion, culmination, realization, integration.

Ahaw may be experienced as a sense of completion.
This experience may include understanding
the causes and effects that led to this moment.
Ahaw offers the awareness of how completion
relates to the entire cycle of life.

Ahaw’s days are opportunities to see situations
as they fit into the bigger picture.
It is a good time to consider the necessity of certain events
and their involvement in something larger than their immediate effects.

People born on a Ahaw day are sensitive to the cycles of time
and respect the importance of being timely.
They naturally accept that everything plays a part
in something greater than itself.

Found library book is returned by a stranger with a note ~ Today’s Daykeeper is Kawak

Finding a lost library book on a plane, a man returns it to the library with a note and a heaping serving of integrity laced with generosity. His actions are rippling out into the world, serving as an image-maker to us all. Little things can make a profound difference.

From Upworthy.com here’s the story.

Mayan Daykeeper Kawak ~ The essence of Kawak is immediate transformation. No heads up, sometimes a change that we don’t even notice happening, it just all of a sudden has happened.

You may experience Kawak
as an immediate shift in consciousness,
a powerful force or a loud violent noise.

On a day with Kawak as Daykeeper,
you are invited to acknowledge and respect life’s mysteries and
all that is beyond your power and control

Those born on a Kawak day
feel a part of something that is beyond normal consciousness.
Their deepest motivations often remain a mystery even to themselves.

Dive Deep Into Kindness ~ Today’s Daykeeper is Etz’nab

 

From a special blog called Be Robin Hood comes a wonderful story of a marine who at 20 years old lost both his legs in an explosion in Afghanistan. Suffering with PTSD as well this marine found serenity in scuba diving and is now teaching it to others. This form of therapy is called ‘deptherapy’. Click on the link above for the full  story.

Mayan Daykeeper Etz’nab ~ The essence of Etz’nab is letting go. Releasing what needs to go in order to birth something new. Sometimes this will be dramatic other times gentle, either way change is the order of the day.

When present, Etz’Nab may stimulate
a powerful awakening to anger and the need for change.
It can appear as rage or the destruction of an old form.
Through sudden events and changes,
Etz’nab may provoke you to be more present in the moment.

Etz’nab days provide an opportunity to detach from
obsolete motivations and future expectations.
You may want to voluntarily arrive in the present moment.
Recognize that when someone or something outside you
appears to interrupt you by demanding your attention,
you are being invited into the moment.

Those born with Etz’nab as their Daykeeper
are people who recognize and express the need for change.
Their actions often challenge the status quo and
can create change for themselves and others.

Baby elephant rescued, it’s mom acknowledges rescuers ~ Today’s Daykeeper is Kaban

Having grown up in Africa this one tickles me pink. Elephants. Their size alone makes them interesting, once you learn a bit more things get fascinating. I have added a link to a very comprehensive site about elephants below. I would invite you to read it another day however, as this 20 day cycle is about our positive acts, so for today let’s leave it with this lovely story about a baby elephant rescue.

From sunnyskyz.com A grateful wild elephant mom acknowledges the humans that rescued her baby. (This is an assumption of course, but one I like)

Here’s a site with tons (pun intended) of info. Elephantsforever.co.za

Mayan Daykeeper Kaban ~ Kaban’s essence is the human mind, it’s processes & abilities. Plasticity, the positive & negative effects of thought, computational ability.

Kaban may be experienced as mental cleansing,
possibly mental clarity, and, often, mental overwhelm.
On a Kaban day, you may clear your mind
by watching the movement and content of your thinking
without attachment or judgement.
This will enable you to think more clearly
and focus your thoughts on a higher level of consciousness.

Those born with Kaban as their Daykeeper
tend to have unique mental abilities
with a potential to be clear thinkers.
Those talents can be used to access higher levels of consciousness
and effectively resolve conflicts and complex problems.

humane, humanity, halloween, dogs, pumpkin, mayan, daykeeper, Kib, solitude, balance, interdependent, healingthroughceremony.com, michele fire-riverheart

Mayan Daykeeper Kib ~ Kib’s essence is solitude.

You may experience Kib as the need for solitude or the desire for separation.
Being alone is often necessary to unwind
from intimate or entangled interactions with others.
Kib’s gifts are given to those that can be alone with themselves.

On a day with Kib as Daykeeper,
you may want to find time to be by yourself
or focus on what you can do by yourself alone.
It is an opportune time to separate yourself
from people and things that no longer serve your current needs.
You may feel much better after bringing certain things to a final conclusion.

People born on a Kib day often experience
their most profound revelations in solitude and usually work best alone.
Even in the presence of others
they are able to maintain an independent awareness of self.

Random Acts of Kindness: RAK ~ Today’s Daykeeper is Ix

Disclaimer: I am a wee bit cranky this morning. Trying to find people doing nice things humane, humanity, mayan, daykeeper, Ix, messages, spirit, meditation, inter dimensional, spirit, receptivity, fawn, healingthroughceremony.com, michele fire-river heart for others, well it’s starting to get me down. So this morning I thought I had a brainwave, random acts of kindness. Well you’d think that there would be tons of random acts of kindness listed on a Goggle search, but no. What there is, is tons of information on doing random acts of kindness. Blogs telling you what would be great random acts of kindness. Apparently there is a Random Act of Kindness day, known in our modern communication code as RAK. Which to me immediately makes me think of ‘Being stretched out on a ….’ not a warm and fuzzy feeling.

However apparently it was a great success according to social media.
– RAKDay was the #1 ranked hashtag until noon and then remained among the top 5 trending hashtags in Canada
– We had over 4.8 MILLION timeline impressions and a reach of 2,181,753 people
– 45 local community organizations participated
– Over 250 communities across Canada got involved

So here’s the website go crazy.

This photo because I just need a little happy this morning, and it makes me smile.

Mayan Daykeeper Ix ~ The essence of Ix is the ability of  the spiritual realm to communicate in the physical realm. An ability to communicate in both.

Ix may manifest as an awareness of spirit
and what may be considered supernatural.

On an Ix day, you may want to be more open
to messages from the spirit world.
It is a good day to contemplate who you are
in dimensions of life other than just the material and physical.

Those born on an Ix day
have the ability to perceive the spirit within.
They can respond to this spirit
and receive it’s communication while in the physical world.

Mayan Daykeeper Ben ~ The essence of Ben is our connection to our ancestral lines. Ben is that feeling of family, the warm cozy one. I know that is not true for all of you, however families are created in many ways, through blood, through choice, through friendship.  In all cases you have an opportunity to learn from your interactions with your families.  Ben holds the energy of interdependent family relationships not co-dependent ones.

Ben expresses in the human experience as
the awareness of family, including both ancestors and
the future potential of the family.

On a Ben day, there may be a general focus on the family
or other dependent relationships.
You may feel more intimate with others around you.
Be careful not to engage those close to you in obsolete family patterns.

Those born with Ben as their Daykeeper
are often responsible and devoted family members.
They may assume the responsibility of being the caretaker of the family
