So, on my journey of a new - or dare I say, fated - life path, I'm working towards becoming a certified Angel Reader (hopefully, soon to be followed by certified Fairy Reader). In order to receive my certificate, I need to do 4 Angel Readings...and I'd prefer to do readings for people I don't know, and VERY preferably, like-minded folk like the wonderful enchanted folk I've chatted with here! :-)

If you'd be interested in receiving a reading, please email me. Thank you so, so very much!!!

After so many months of not working, I finally found a part time job working front desk at a relatively successful spa in LA.  It appeared to be a good fit seeing that I'm working towards my Esthetician license, and there was the opportunity to be trained in all of their treatments and be ready to DO all of them by the time I got my license.  Fabulous, no? 

Everything was going well the first week ~ even in handling difficult clients, I was able to let it roll off my back with ease.  This past Sunday and Monday, however, not so much...not as easy.  There were one too many difficult clients, very literally yelling and SCREAMING at me...or should I say, TO me?  (*note: I was going to include these stories, but am SO tired of retelling them)  Whether these situations were the cause to a spiked fever and dizzy spells within my body, or whether it was simply some other dis-ease, I had to call in sick the next day (Tuesday). 

Later that day, the front desk manager called, leaving a vague message: "If you can, please call the spa."  Umm...???  I decided I'd call the following day.  ...I didn't call.  Feeling better, I went out all day, enjoying the beautiful weather. 

At 7:30 this morning, I made my 20 min. drive to the spa, with sneaking suspicions that I was called the other day for the message that I was not needed on Thursday...or that I was fired.  Lo and behold, when I arrived at the spa, and pulled out our "Keep Me in the Know" binder (which includes our work schedule), there was a change in the schedule...and I was scheduled as OFF for the entire week, including the weekend.  I alerted my trainer about this; she found it very strange.  An uncomfortable silence followed.  Awesome.  Given that a couple of more girls have been hired, I very well may be fired.  If that's true, a shift in the universe must have happened.  I created and started my own "side" business while I was out sick.  Kicking off my business is my Integrated Energy Therapy (IET) service!  Soon, I'll be adding hot stone massage therapy, reflexology, and Advanced IET.  Three friends have already contacted me to schedule sessions, and I'm looking forward to my business growing!

An email I sent to my lovely life coach this afternoon... :-)

I had a couple of interesting discoveries this morning...yes, MORE!!!  How ridiculous is that?! :)  As I washed my face and put on a little "greek isles" fragrance this morning...and thought about Andrew's sister telling me yesterday how people WILL actually believe that I'm really Greek once I marry Andrew (they're Greek), I froze as I looked at myself in the mirror and thought "Oh my go****hink I spent a past life in Greece!!! ...could explain my interest in Greek Mythology...I don't really care for the 'roman' version of it...all there is to me is GREEK mythology."  I could see myself in Greek robes...during the past life regression with Tina and Mark a couple of weeks ago, each time the angels took me down to the beach, I was in a flowing white dress...very Greek-like.  The other discovery (more major than that) is that as I looked at myself ~ seeing myself as a Greek woman or a Greek goddess or something, I then saw myself as others might of seen me in another time...as a witch.  Something in our conversation yesterday spurred me, I think.  While, I didn't resonate with being burned at the stake, thinking about Salem, or just thinking about Massachusetts in general, it ALL started to come together.  When I was younger, I wanted to live in Massachusetts.  I even looked at colleges up there when I got older; I applied to Boston College.  I was even attracted to Boston men for a while ~ haha!  ANYWAY ~ I thought my attraction to the state was because my parents met in Boston, both of their families when they moved to The States, moved to Boston (or just outside of Boston).  And I had family who still lived up there while I was growing up.  They all moved away eventually...but then my favorite aunt and uncle (originally from Boston), who lived in Richmond, VA and Fairfax, VA (near where I lived in D.C.) for about 9 years, are moving BACK to Massachusetts by the end of the year.  Massachusetts always fascinated me...along with witches, as I told you yesterday.  I always wished to be a witch; a good witch.  I was obsessed with this HBO movie when I was growing up called "The Worst Witch."  It was about this young girl who goes to a boarding school for witches, and she was TERRIBLE at it! :-)  I loved "Bewitched" (still do), and wanted to be Tabitha (the daughter) ~ twitching my nose all over the place.  One Halloween, I dressed up as a witch.  Even though it was "unoriginal," almost every year, I wanted to be a witch.  My mom always scoffed and said "Why do you want to be a witch?!"  And of course, there's my obsession with Harry Potter. 

In my last email to you, I told you that when I took the Doreen Virtue quiz, I was "teetering" on being a Wise One.  Honestly, it originally came up that I had more "trues" in that section than "falses."  I was surprised by this...and didn't even know what a "Wise One" was until I googled it.  I didn't understand it...how *I* could be a Wise One.  I went back to look at the questions for the quiz...and knew that two of my answers I was unsure of; it could be true OR false ~ for example, it asked if I studied astrology or tarot...well, I never "studied it-studied it," but I have an interest in it.  I take astrology quizzes, I read my astrology, etc.  So, that's why I said that I was "teetering" on being a Wise One. 

As I journaled, I examined my present life...A week or so ago, I was confused to as why I chose my parents to be my parents (or why they were chosen for me) if I was indeed a MerAngel.  I then realized that my dad could possibly be a mer-fairy...of course, not totally recognizing that fact. ;-)  He loves lakes, ponds, woods... he enjoys nature, and he's very playful.  My mom...on the other hand...while she can joke around and lighten up from time to time, she's mostly serious.  Practical.  But looking back on it all this morning...I think my mom was either my mom in my past life as a witch or she was an older sister; she was someone who looked after me, and someone I looked up to.  Even though my mom is conservative and pretty grounded in "reality," (a) I know she does believe in spirits, and (b) she also LOVES Harry Potter ~ she even reread all the books after reading the 7th.  So, in looking at why my parents now are my parents, I needed someone from that life and from my mer-life to be with me and look over me in this life.  My dad, I think, was probably a good ol' uncle or distant cousin of some sort, but someone I truly loved in my mer-life.  Things came together more as I thought about what might've happened in my life as a witch.  I think I died young, as a teenager.  Like I said, I don't think i was burned at the stake.  What, I think, might've happened is that I committed suicide.  I think the people in the village found out or accused me of being a witch and had sentenced me to death, but before that could happen, I drowned myself.  I have a fear of drowning ~ for some reason, I feel like that would be the worst way to die...even though, I know burning to death would be horrible, too!!!  Drowning scares me more.  Funny that I should think that in knowing I'm a Mer-Angel...but putting that together with my life as a witch, maybe I knew then that I was from that realm, and perhaps I thought that in drowning myself, I would be back with my mer-family.  I'm also wondering if I might've used a knife or some sort of razor to cut myself ~ my wrists, neck before I jumped in because knives and razors give me the chills ~ especially seeing or the thought of it slicing the wrist or neck...uuugggh... There's a scene in "Psycho" where he's determinedly washing blood off his hands, and that seems eerily familiar to me.  Also, going back to the burning at the stake ~ I was in a show called "Camelot" back in 2000...the show ended with Gwenyvere burning at the stake.  I don't exactly remember how they staged it, but I do remember the stakes being up, and they might've put her up there, then closed the curtains, darkened the stage, or had a skrim for the burning scene.  But it creeped me out...looking back on it, I might've remembered that being my "fate" ~ the fate I decided to run away from.  Oh, and funny enough, I was in my high school production of "The Crucible."

Then looking back to when I was a baby...or at least the stories I heard about when I was a baby...I cried A LOT.  I wouldn't go to anyone BUT my mom...sometimes my dad, I think.  But definitely not anyone else.  I would wail and scream.  Hm, could be a similar thing to what you went through in not trusting any adults.  This past also could explain why my parents didn't have me join the community pool, or have me around a lot of water activities ~ except for swim lessons.

This realization...especially with my mom, made me cry quite a bit!!!   And it seriously made talking to her today a lot easier than it has previously.  My mom and I usually talk for quite a while despite the feelings of differences I feel between us.  We don't typically lack in conversation, but at the same time, I still don't tell her everything because I know she won't understand.   Today, though, even though I still didn't tell her everything, the conversation was much easier, and I was able to "look" at her with even more love because I know that she was my support system back then...and she really still is now.  Her over-protectiveness and over-concern of me is just her way, and it will always be there.  And really, this is something I should know or have known, but I like knowing that it just always has been...even going back to Salem Witch Trials time.  You know, I think there's even a part of her that's upset with me for leaving them like that.  I think she believed that the ruling could've been overturned. 

And the fairy card I pulled this morning..."Trust Your Instincts."  ...Wow.

Oh, I'm so glad I stumbled upon this website!!!  The perfect place to connect with like-minded people and post my blogs while I go along my spiritual journey.

About three weeks ago, I purchased my first set of oracle cards, Healing with the Fairies by Doreen Virtue.  Along with it, I got her Healing with the Fairies book.  What an eye-opener!!!  Since then, I've been searching for my origins.  Talk about a lot of googling!  There has been *a lot* of information thrown my way these past few weeks; it's amazing the amount of times I went back and forth figuring out which realm was my home.  Even more amazing was typing in the same words in the search engine and having NEW websites pop up since yesterday.  I think the fairies and angels believed I was ready!  So, these past few days have been much clearer, and I'm closer to settling in and accepting that I am a MerAngel.  Of course, I want to make sure that it's not my ego talking, but I feel that if it were my ego talking, I'd either be saying I'm a Fairy, MerFairy or a straight up Mermaid. :-)

More later...

Blessings!
