Being able to truly "see"

Over the last four years, this blog has taken on some of the huger topics in life- change in jobs, the ascension, escaping from a physically abusive relationship etc. And some of the lighter topics- Vipassana meditation and a Holistic approach to life, service to God and humanity, goodwill, peace harmony, etc. For four years, I have handled the frantic pace of life, crazy work schedules, publishing guidelines for my book, and life in general. What I'm about to say will shock you- I'm leaving New York City. It's over. My karma with the Big Apple- is for all intensive purposes- done. I am doing this to preserve my sanity and start a brand new life outside the confines of the extreme polarity which exists there. Yes, and I am ready for a softer, kinder approach. Being a warrior will take a toll on you by the time you're 40. Success, ambition, relentless onslaught, dumbed down, desensitization, intensity- all these are words used to describe my experience of life in NYC. I'm happy to report it's now over.

Recently I ripped a contact lens. I had to wait an extremely long time for a pair to arrive and it drove the point home that I am basically blind without my glasses or contacts. I made a decision. I want to see. I want to "see" the truth. I've had glasses since I was 9. I came into this life with the gift of impaired vision, The reason I am calling it a gift is all of my other visible senses and non-visible senses had to work extremely hard to maintain a life in which I could get a "perspective" of life. That work is prepatory.  This morning, with so many problems with my eyes, I visited Derek O' Neill's SQ- Wellness website. I had to squint and hold the laptop way up to my eyes(as you can tell)- since there may be typos in this post. The quote is something like "The way to "see" out of the valley is to take a different perspective. Sorry if I' m skewering this Derek and SQ Wellness people, but I really can't see the screen clearly. As I am writing this, I had an allergic reaction to my contacts and my eyelids started to redden and peel. My eyes are uncomfortable, so I had to order new contacts.
 For the time being, I'm relying more on my hearing, kinesthetics, and spiritual senses.

 But then, I started to think, "Now really, why did I come into this lifetime with the inability to see? What am I missing? It could be said that nearsighted people tend to base life more on logic and thought, rather than faith and perception. We are narrow minded- yes. And our outlook on life is somewhat fixed and "myopic" In my case, this is of stunning proportions. By not allowing my soul to see, I have single mindedly narrowed my way of life, reducing opportunities and other ways of being. Yes, I'm assuming full responsibility for not seeing. Thus, if this is the logic, I can and will change it. I want to see. I will myself to see. Affirmations, healing,responsibility. Another spiritual breakthrough I had is that nearsighted people won't allow life to truly"affect" them, controlling every interaction because they inherently do not trust the world and God. In my case, this is also sadly true. Thouugh, to what level, I never realized before. At this late date and in an effort to regain my 20/20 vision, I am exploring options to heal myself. I belief I can reverse this. I want to be able to wake up and see the world for what it truly is. I now ask the Source and God for it's assistance in regaining my sight. I am ready to see the truth. It may have taken a long time, however, I am open to SIGHT:)!!!!

My favorites for Fall 2014- Voila!!!

Lets just say it was absolutely breathtaking to sit at Custo Barcelona's show this year, and I had fun.

My favorites for Fall 2014 are: BCBG Max Azria, Calvin Klein( of course), Caroline Herrera, Diane Von Furstenberg, Tory Birch and Michael Kors. Michael Kors silohuettes were like a breath of fresh air with his use of deep browns and some greys. Donna Karan's pieces looked a bit dated with all the sheer velvet panels and 70's dresses. The "Surprise"was Georgine. The Georgine Collection was very fresh, very New York -of-the moment, smart womeny and sophisticated.

After Ascension.. when the Dust Settles:)!!!

Well, after the dust settles over what we know in the present New Age World as the "Ascension", we now know and feel tangibly that we are different.
More empowered, we are alive in a world that is consciously creating evry second of every day. This is truly living! Dalai Lama has said some amazing thing about this age of our lives. Satya Sai Baba has passed from this mortal coil and we are expecting his Holy Re-incarnation soon. My teacher, S.N Goenka who taught the ground-breaking meditation, Vipassana in the 50s, 60s, and 70s and 80s, has left his physical body. Nelson Mandela, a being who surpassed his life plan, has passed. Folks, we have a bad-ass of spiritual beings and avatars on the other side pulling for the next transformation of Love. Fundamentally, we are changed. Being in the presence of Love does that. There are some very beautiful healing energies on the planet. The Rising Star system is one of them. Another amazing healer in New Orleans is Rachel Collier. Rachel is a Reiki Master, Licensed Angelic Teacher & Healer, and on her way to become a Rainbow Reiki Teacher as well. Rachel's teachers are Walter Lubeck, Frank Arjava Petter, His Holiness the Dali Lama, Sandra Trimble, Tianne Lastra and the greatest of all of her teachers- Nature, Mother Earth herself. She comes highly recommended and heals the whole of New Orleans. But not only that, Rachel's Angelic healing classes are rocking the house! One of her students Vanessa Patino says, "It's a very powerful class." "All of the angels are souped -up and amplified in Rachel's classes- this is no ordinary Angelic healing! She holds the keys to training a new paradigm of very powerful Angelic healers. All the other metaphysical methods I have previously used hold no candle to this method!" Vanessa is trained as an angelic healer, NOLA/NYC renowned psychic and energy healer. She owns a business: Readings by Vanessa.
Rachel Collier is ready to accept students for 2014 classes. Rachel's website is : www.waychillreiki.com. Vanessa Patino's website info is: http://www.tumblr.com/ReadingsbyVanessa

We are ready to be transformed!!

The business of day-to-day affairs this past year has been somewhat heavy, with planet Saturn's influence making our lives wrought with obstacles. We have seen a transition in 2013. And finally, a breath can be breathed.

Last night, Nelson Mandela passed from the physical earthly plane on. His transition sparked a outpouring of love and goodwill all across the world. In the sign of Sagittarius which we are in, the higher welfare and humanity of the world is upgraded. This is a push for all to open their hearts and recognize a true spiritual and moral human being who fulfilled his life purpose. And when you hear thew sound of that click, it is difficult to keep quiet. SO everyone has been touched and guess what?

From what I have seen since last night, when certain spiritual masters leave this plane, they complete the circle. We just had Satya Sai Baba, Teacher of Vippasana S.N. Goenka, and last night, Nelson Mandela leave the earthly physical plane. My analysis: We are definitely ascended and now, we will receive an upgrade. Also, last night, the intensity of Rising Star healing system was through the roof in New York City. Which shows me that the people are ready for liberation. Are you ready for liberation?

Pluto goes direct! Whoa! Astrologers everywhere take notice!

Ok. So, I thought hey- the ascension process is over. We are all happy. We are all in unison and loved. And, whoa.. here comes Pluto. Pluto is a strong force- to say the least. Pluto is a force of transformation. It goes direct and last week, Sept. 20, 21,22 and hey.. forward movement. Pluto is intense. Now Pluto effects your chart in specific to where it is. I have Pluto natally in first house and boy.. did I feel it!!!!! The last week has been intense. My advice for everyone is to make sure your destiny fits your identity. And honey..if it doesn't, HOUSTON.. we got a problem!!!!

Fashion is back.

NYC re-instates itself as the fashion capital of the world. I see leather- black- everywhere.

 

 

 

 

 

The Real New Yorkers are back!

Guess what! Fall is here. The Real New Yorkers are back! Yep.. I'm waiting for Bravo to come out with that show. You know, when you spend a certain number of years in NYC, you get the bonified status of being a real New Yorker. You shrug off shit other people( bridge & tunnel ppl) get flustered over. You accept everything with a grain of salt. Flamboyancy is mixed with sarcasm. You basically get over it.

I'm extremely proud to see the REAL new Yorkers are back. We enjoyed the Hamptons. We enjoyed upstate. We traveled all over. Fall is here. Fashion week starts in exactly 11 days. We are back! Thanks tourists. We won't miss you at all.
