Just Beachy


Today it dawned on me that everything was going to be okay. Whew. What a relief. I am very thankful for that knowledge, for that comfort.

The life I desire, my ideal life, is being created by me and because of me - right now. It is manifesting piece-by-piece, bit-by-bit.

And that’s just beachy.

Have a wonderful weekend. See you Tuesday because Monday is a holiday.

Beauty

It never ceases to amaze me at the sheer amount of beauty I experience each day. It can be small (like a tiny baby squawking) to big (like the moon) and I am consistently enchanted and intoxicated by every shape and form beauty takes.

Beauty gets me high. I’m not afraid to share with you that I am also quick to cry from it because I often find it so overwhelming. It’s my kryptonite. Yes, beauty overload. I’ve always been like that. It can bring me to my knees in a heartbeat. Barely a day goes by when I don’t shed a tiny tear of joy from the beauty I encounter.

Part of Conscious Creation for me is creating beauty. It adds a heightened state of engagement for me. I love feeling and sensing beauty at every turn because beauty is a component of joy. And I’m all for creating more joy in my life. (Aren’t we all?). Note to self: this journey needs to be enjoyable.

I try to find beauty everywhere and anywhere. The more unexpected places I find it, the more I cherish it. We are all attracted to beauty but our definitions of it can greatly vary. Just today I was noting the beautiful green iridescence on the back of a common fly on my balcony. The shimmer and richness in the sunlight had me hypnotized. And then off it flew. Too soon I thought, though. I would have liked to soak up a little bit more of that colour detail. I find the house in this picture exceptionally beautiful because of its age, its character and the stories within her walls. To others, they may find the house ugly, old and beaten up.

To each his own.

I’m feelin’ it…I’m loving it…there is so much beauty in this world. It's at every turn.

Hey - what was the most beautiful thing you experienced today?

What is the most beautiful thing you created today?

The Matrix


I was watching THE MATRIX today. It’s one of my favourite films. Oh, that fabulous Wachowski team!

It made me consider how bold they were to deliver such a profound message of consciousness and theology exquisitely encased in a blockbuster commercial Hollywood vehicle. Bravo to them. It is brilliant work IMHO – a classic.

It allowed people to “see” the illusion of physical reality.

It allowed us to open our eyes and our minds.

Without question, film is a powerful medium. I think this work made consciousness, theology and philosophy readily accessible to the masses in a highly appetizing form.

I also think that many, many fans toyed with exploring the concept of reality vs. illusion more closely by pondering “what if…” questions and scenarios.

In the words of Morpheus… “The Matrix is a world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.”

Hmmm. I feel that I am only now *really* seeing. Powerful stuff to be sure.

Blue Sky

The “biggie” I was waiting on, my home refinance, came through! Somebody pinch me. Hello.

I got the call and in I went to sign the papers early this afternoon. I am a bit shell shocked because even the manager I was dealing with was quite surprised at my approval! It was a real long shot, honey. Trust me on this one. I will spare you the many twists and turns to where I find myself with respect to my housing. We’ll chat over a drink sometime. Yet here I am, having accomplished what seemed like an impossible feat.

In many ways this seems like a magnificent breakthrough. Things are manifesting true to my desires. It’s spooky good and cholcolatey delicious.

I am joyful and ecstatic and beaming and happy.

This Conscious Creation business has, ahem, legs. Blue skies ahead.

Genuine Gratitude


Yesterday I lost track at how many times I gave thanks for how much I loved the day.

The summer weather was perfect for me. The BEST I can recall ever as an adult!

The ultimate combination of sun, sky, heat and breeze.

It triggered a profound harmony within me.

The strong feelings of BEING ONE, HAPPY and PEACEFUL made for a euphoric experience. These are some of the feelings I strive for everyday. Makes me a very happy camper.

A constant thread with Conscious Creation is expressing thanks. This process immediately shifts energy to the positive and is a clear marker. I believe that by expressing thanks & praise, the positive energy radiates out to produce even more of the same: more positive creations, more positive experiences, and more gratitude. I also feel that this practice really should be done on a daily basis (even several times a day). Some people even keep a journal. I think Oprah does this, actually. OH – and don’t forget to add a smile! No faking. The Universe can spot a faker. When that happens, I think it quashes the vibe and intention. And that means no creation manifestation. Highly counterproductive wouldn’t you agree?

I am grateful, ever so grateful, for experiencing within what I did yesterday.

:-)

Might I ask you what is one thing that you are genuinely grateful for today?

All good.

A Biggie


I had a good indication as to a huge, personal manifestation of mine yesterday. It’s very important to me and is actually on the top of my conscious creation list as pertains to my home. I’m rather stressed about it and am trying to quell my anxiety. Every time a negative thought about it enters my head, I immediately replace it with the positive outcome I desire. And I smile. The smiling is a nice button to it. If this item manifests, it will be a biggie. I will feel like I conquered a giant, imposing obstacle.

And now here's a small manifestation I'll report on. I recently signed up for an organic weekly food box delivery right to my door. I love organic, I love the convenience and I love that a lot of the produce is grown in the province. When I got my first order I thought it was a little light for $37.00 sooo… I started thinking about what I really wanted. I want organic weekly fruit and veggies that I can hand pick from a great, wide selection with more value for my dollar and close to home. Now I do have a couple of nearby groceries stores that carry organic produce within about a 5-10 minute drive of my home, but the selection is pretty limited. That’s what led me to the quest for the food box in the first place. Well the value isn’t really there in the box but the selection is. A dilemma.

Out of the blue today, a couple of my girlfriends I was with asked on a whim if I had ever been to their local grocery store. I said no and we decided to head over to pick up a few items. It’s only a few blocks from their house. And that makes it about a 15 minute drive from my place with light traffic. They mentioned it used to be an old Italian grocery market that is now just a regular indie local grocery store … and are you ready for it? They said I would probably like it because it carries a great selection of ORGANICS.

Hello.

I got to tell you, it was impressive. Quite a lot of nice and varied selection. And you know what is really nice? They even have a scale. I can’t tell you how frustrating it is in stores nowadays because there are no scales to weight food. I'll have to go back one more time, but I want to be sure I'm really happy with it. I could do my major shopping there early on Saturday mornings and then do my little picks ups of basics on Monday and Wednesday at the other places closer to my home. How perfect. But it does look pretty great.

I have been to my girlfriends' place well over one hundred times. We talk about everything. And a lot about food. I can’t recall a time we have ever brought up this place. The fact that it is synchronized with my new food box delivery… we’ll, hey, that’s highly suspect, wouldn’t you agree? The timing is impeccable.

I wanted to illustrate a very large manifestation and a small one with details. Albeit the big one is still a work in progress but once again, the Universe gracefully and seemingly automatically aligns my desires. Seeing as these are still early days into my one-year study and experiment, I’m trying to remain rational and objective, but I’m soooo happy.

Have a wonderful weekend.

OBUL


What’s the biggest, best, most powerful force is the Universe?

OBUL - One Big Universal Love.

Love, baby, love.

Give me an L.

Give me an O.

Give me a V.

Give me an E.

*** This feeling, this force, gives Conscious Creation meaning.

Face it, without meaning, it’s all hollow. What would be the point?

Put your dreams out into the Universe fuelled by LOVE.

Watch your creations grow before your eyes.

Now click the link and start creating.

We all gotta lotta lovin’ to do. Step to it.

Playing


Let me ask you - which are you?

Logical or Random?

Deliberate or Impulsive?

Rational or Intuitive?

Mary Ann or Ginger?

LOL - I love to play. Most likely that is why I love the arts (because my work is really play). I have been lucky to find a few like-minded wonderful playmates along the way and the journey has been soooo much more fun.

I would have to say from my initial Conscious Creation study that “right-brained” individuals may indeed have a the edge over “left-brained” individuals in this deal. Elements such as imagination, improvisation, and “the sky is the limit” attitude seem to behoove us in making and taking risks without fear of scolding or embarrassment. Those daring dreams then take flight and then manifest.

Conceiving your biggest, wildest dreams empowers you and ignites your reality. I have a strong feeling this is a key element...

Come.

Play.

What's Next?


Today I caught myself thinking… what’s next? What’s next in this adventure for Miss Mag? What is the NEXT conscious creation?

Well, I couldn’t really think of anything. Ahem. Yeah. Odd.
A new Mac laptop would be sweet, but I’m not bent on it. So would a new pair of boots for autumn. Again, if it happens, nice, but it’s not a must. Really, I think I have everything I need at the moment. I live simply and beautifully and it’s enough for me. I’m good.

You know what I have been thinking about? You know what I feel is really important right now? The BP Oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. It is massive. A catastrophe of world-altering proportions. I catch myself thinking about Mother Earth and all the devastation to the planet because of this. It is painful to think about it. I can’t even look at the photos and footage.

Whenever I have a quiet moment, I close my eyes and send positive mental vibrations to the site. I send a healing white light and envision the seal holding.

Can I ask a favour?

Can you just take a minute and mentally send positive vibes to “seal & heal” this disaster, please?

Mastery?

I have the distinct feeling the Universe is toying with me.

Or am I toying with the Universe?

Yes, that’s it. Whoopsie daisy.

I am choosing. I am creating.

I put out a very quick intention on Friday night before I headed out to socialize and had it manifest in a delightfully unexpected way. And in short order. It was a yummy one, too.

;-)

Clearly I don’t even come close to any sort of mastery of Conscious Creation. I’m just a babe in the woods. What is odd though, is that I can’t help but be struck at how automatic and seemingly easy this process appears to be.

What has changed?

My awareness? My belief? My action?

I think it is a combo platter of all the above with a cherry on top.

My goal is to develop a spiritual discipline in which I am able to easily and successfully consciously create every positive experience thereby producing my best reality in this lifetime. I wholly accept this.

Now sit tight.

I must also accept that I create every negative experience of mine. This is a little more difficult to own. I don’t mind sharing with you that this past year has been one of the worse ever for me. The only year to surpass it was when I lost both parents within ten months of each other. I was utterly devastated. As I write this, I am only just now emerging from a frighteningly dark personal period.

Ultimately I am of the mind that ALL experiences are necessary for me to create and grow. Regardless of my path, pain, joy, love and fear are all equally excellent teachers.

And I know I am, without question, 100% responsible for EVERYTHING I experience.

Is mastery even required then to have this process work? It seems to me to be working just fine as is. If I desire the really big stuff like World Peace, do I have to shave my head and live in a cave? Well, lol, I don’t think so. The magic it seems is that anyone can consciously create. No PHD required. At least that’s my professional spiritual opinion. And I'm jazzed about all of it.

TGIF


Thank God it’s Friday. My first blog week under my belt. Whew. This whole blogging world is new to me, so to actually get through the week is an accomplishment.

I had a good day yesterday and more manifestations. Yes. Lovely. I know I am on the right path.

A little story to go along with the photo today. I hear a variety of birds all day long next to my home and love it. What I love even more is if I get a glimpse of one sitting on the ledge – especially from a cardinal – it is a rarity. I have been living in my home for four years and I bet I can count on one hand how often a cardinal has rested on the ledge and I managed to spot it.

Last night as I sat on my balcony before sunset, I was hoping that a cardinal would join me so I enjoy the view a little more with company. I did my best to ask, to manifest, to consciously create it. Twenty minutes later, nothing. Ugh. Disappointing. Wellllll, first thing this morn, I happened to have my camera in hand and I heard the distinct and beautiful chirping. I quickly looked outside and, lo and behold, a cardinal sitting on the ledge! C’MON… I had to laugh. A slight delay in my conscious creation request, but clear validation to me!

Isn’t he handsome? What a way to start the day.

Lesson 1: Keep the Faith.

Lesson 2: The Universe works at its own pace.

Lesson 3: Enjoy the ride.

Have a great weekend and I will touch base on Monday.

More Woo Woo


LOL… great day yesterday. Simply great.

Before I got out of bed I continued my new ritual of spending a few minutes in giving thanks to the Universe and creating my new day. In my silly little way, I glibly put out that I wanted to receive a free gift – a little something (like a cup of tea), without prompting it from someone.

Two guesses at what transpired – and the first one doesn’t count.

Yup, it happened. In fact, not only did I get one gift, I got THREE! I got a free small replacement make up container (which I intended on paying for upon entering the store). I also got a free drink from an old friend and I got a drink and appetizers with another fab friend. Verification 101. Whowouldathunk?!

To be clear, I have had experience manifesting things like a parking space or a phone call in the past (before THE SECRET came out, I had a friend that shared this info with me but in a very loose, low key way). Last week when I had the revelation about consciousness and creating, this stirred something very deep within me, and hence the start of this blog to study and discover this vital arena. When I got the fairly big coup last week that I focused on, I then reverted to the small stuff like yesterday and indeed, I have the confirmation to keep moving forward. It is all unfolding like an exquisite flower blossom. I FEEL that sense of connection: the sense of ONE.

I have ordered about a dozen books about metaphysics, quantum theory, and Conscious Creation from the library and am eager to get my bony hands on them.

I am excited, I mean REALLY excited at the possibility of all this. It feels like Christmas to me. Quite magical.

One of my poems: I DWELL IN POSSIBILITY by Emily Dickinson

For years I have had a magnet with this title of my fridge door.

Do I BELIEVE we have ultimate control to create ANYTHING?

The answer is a resounding YES.

Have a great day.

Posing Questions




The one sticky thing I have come across in this whole Conscious Creation arena is the business of questions. I tend to ask a lot of questions but what I am finding is that the questions I am posing are leading to more questions. Hmmm. Questions, questions and more questions. An example: How do I change my future? Conscious Creation. Fine. Got it. If I can change my future, then how come I can’t change my past? And how can I change the present? (After all we only have the now). Also: How come some creations manifest quickly while others take much longer? (Is there a way to expedite? Am I missing paperwork?)

I like to adhere to a KISS policy (Keep It Simple, Sweetie), so there is no need for a long-winded and/or abstract scientific or mathematical response here. I like to get to the heart of the matter and I want to feel satisfied with an acceptable answer that resonates with me.


I am starting off with the big picture – WHY ARE WE HERE?

Like any diligent student, I’m covering the basics: Who, What, Where, When, Why, How

Who – We are divine spiritual beings; we are ONE

What - We venture forth and take on a human being form

Where – We come to this earth plane in the universe, complete with parallel dimensions

When – In this particular lifetime experience, in a new human reincarnation

Why – TO EXPERIENCE; to create, to grow, to actualize and to learn about our “self.”

How – Via 1) relationships and 2) experiences


Looking back and re-reading this, I do feel content and satisfied. It’s a good start.


And, c’mon, who is kidding who? I know things are about to get much more complicated, lol, and with many more questions needing solid answers.


Keep smiling.

First Manifestation - Go Figure


Happy to report that the item I had been focused on for the past week has manifested itself. Very speedy. All good. I am thrilled about it and it has given me fuel for my creative fire. Now I am focusing on my next creative manifestation (a biggie) and will see how this plays out. I will keep you posted.

These experiments, although informal, are measureable. They are supported by results. It happens or it doesn’t – simple.

I was thinking that I have had some outstanding, life-changing work reach my hands over the many years. One of the best (and most important to me) was CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD by Neal Donald Walsch. If you have not read this, I highly encourage you to pick it up. This is a must read. I also felt THE NEW REVELATIONS was remarkable.

I do feel that we are ONE with God and are divine. For those that think this is blasphemous , do not pass go, do not collect $200.00 – read the two books I quoted above and then get back to me. I think it may change your outlook.

I believe that we are spiritual beings who choose to come to this earth to have a human experience. Earth is the toughest school going and we should all be commended on even attempting this, brave souls that we are...

So good for all of us – Go Team Human!
