Opening to Receive

04 Sep

Yesterday I was at a great yoga class where the teacher kept saying we do yoga to know how to handle crisis. Later I said, well, that may be one reason. But yoga is union with the Divine, and learning to receive is key. You can learn to receive God, to receive the Good. You can learn to deserve. It's not just about crises. She laughed and agreed. Expand my ability to receive You Oh Divine, may I open to receive all your blessings and goodness. Expand my capacity for love, pleasure, joy and happiness. May I know my own...

THE HOLY EARRING REUNION (and Mercury moves out of shadow)

30 Jun

Ok if you use my books, you know signs come in the craziest ways. You just have to notice. And if you follow the fB page (http://www.facebook.com/toshasilver13), you may remember a few weeks ago, as Mercury was going retro, I accidentally broke a vendor's mirror, then bought a set of earrings to make her happy. When I got home, I found one of the earrings had vanished anyway. All typical cuckoo Mercury. Well, this past Friday was important (not only because of Marriage Equality) but cuz Mercury returned to the degree where it was BEFORE that crazy retro started in...
