Lately life has been kicking my butt. I went to one of my favorite online reading sites and came away with the following reading. I think it was pretty spot on.

Attaining Your Goals Reading

Use this reading to assist in reaching, or possibly even defining your goals for the future. This spread attempts to identify core strengths you will need and challenges you will have to overcome to attain your goals and correspond them to the Animal Spirit that best represents them.

Outcome


Bear

Bear represents a time of reflection and stillness—a time of entering the inner cave of Self to contemplate life's challenges. Bear often appears during times of confusion and unrest—those unsettling moments when you turn to everyone you know for answers—everyone except yourself. Go within, ask the hard questions—then listen.




Issues to Address


Turtle

Turtle carries his home on his back, and his question to you today is whether your life is weighed down with “things” that serve no purpose. Everyone loves buying stuff, but do you use shopping, spending, and the acquisition of “things” as a substitute for passion, conviction, commitment? It’s worth thinking about, isn’t it?




Goal


Snake

Has Snake slithered into your world today? If so, you are being asked to undergo a major transformation. Are you willing to shed your old skin? Are you willing to let go of people, places, and things that no longer have a place in your life? Snake will help you make the grand transformation, then slide into a new life that's brimming with possibility.




Issues to Address


Moose

Moose represents incredible strength and longevity, as well as the ability to see the future. Moose antlers are among the largest of the antlered animals, and are like psychic antennae—giving Moose amazingly developed hearing, smell, and depth perception. Moose is bellowing at you to open your third eye and stop pretending that you don't know what's about to happen.




Primary Strength


Spider

Spider represents a connection between past and future, to remind you that the web you weave today is the web you will inhabit tomorrow. Are you spinning a balanced future? Spider is also a creator, spinning stories just as easily as she does a web. Spider in your reading asks you to consider the future you are weaving—does it include your biggest dreams?




Primary Weakness

Polar Bear

Has Polar Bear lumbered into your reading? If so, he's reminding you of the value of being flexible. Polar Bear instinctively knows how to conserve his energy and will observe a situation before he takes action. Once he decide it's the appropriate time to move forward, however, he has the strength, energy, and fortitude to face whatever dangers lie ahead. Having problems making a change? Polar Bear is here to help, and his message to you is: Take heart, have courage, build your strength, then MOVE!

Summer's Bounty

Catch-Up

Not ketchup or catsup. Rather I shall post some random tidbits from the last two months.

Here is a few pictures of my dinner last night. I stuffed pepper's from my garden with cream cheese, because everything taste good with cream cheese. I also made zucchini boats that I baked in the oven and topped with marinara sauce.

What else? Well I love selling Norwex. It's been a great first couple of months and I envision it getting better and better! If you haven't heard of Norwex you can check out their website at www.norwex.com and then shoot me an email at mia.norwex@gmail.com to order. 'Cause you'll want to order after you know about it. I promise.

How are my chicken's doing? you ask.
Well they are very well, though are not laying yet. I've been telling them that they need to start pulling their weight around here and either start doing the dishes or lay us some eggs! Maybe it's the stress getting to them, but no eggs yet. I figure they will start laying once they get their castle next week. I suppose you wouldn't want to pro create either if you where living in a box down by the river.
I did trade off two Rhode Island Red's for two bantams about a month ago. One is a buff orpington and one is a black Silkie(named Sookie......can't you just hear Bill yelling for his 'dinner'?....Soookiieee......). It took a little while for them to get accepted into the flock but they are holding their own.
The really cute and slightly annoying thing about my chickens is that, come 8pm, they roost on top of my car. This was kind of cute until the day I thought I was being followed around by a bag of manure, that is until I saw the large blob of poop that had melted into the top of my door. Really really gross.

Norwex

I like the honesty, but now I don't like the cup.

Beware all ye who enter here

Try not to be fooled by the cleverly placed fruit loops or bulldozer. For you will surely be trapped under the well hidden basket of doom.

Treasure Map ....Check!

Last my family and a great friend sat around our dining room table and created our Treasure Map. Paper flew, laughs abound....fun was had by all.
My map this year is much more spiritual based, where last years was more material focused. Of course most of the magazines at the table where goddess magazines plus last years we'moon....so go figure. lol.
Everyone's year looks to be full of travel, financial abundance, love and spiritual growth. Should be fun time!

Did you do your map? I'd love to hear about it.
