Le Groseil (The Gooseberry)

We don't have these in Southern California. They are Gooseberries. I suppose if you needed them for a recipe, you could buy them frozen or in a can. Or possibly have them shipped.

In France they are quite common, and are called Le Groseil.  Everybody knows them.

They come in red

And they make delicious 'conserves'--I enjoyed them on my bread each morning when I was in Vouvray 

When I was at the market, I saw these, my favorite Gooseberries from Peru. I did not know the name in either French or English. I have only found them in Canada. With excitement, I bought two baskets!

And my family there scratched their head. What is this she likes? They have never seen them before, and most were not interested to try them. The ones that did didn't enjoy them like I do--so I ate most of them myself.

Today I am writing about the energy that is inside someone's aura. For lack of a better term, I am calling them 'Le Groseil', for the purpose of this discussion.

Everyone has an energy 'taste' or a 'flavor' that can be felt. This is how I 'name' my crystals--I don't 'give' them a name. In my heart, when I am with them, I feel their Spirit or Vibration, and when I talk to them (yes I do, usually with my mind), I refer to them by their 'Le Groseil'. I would know each one anywhere, just by the Vibration.

The important thing here is not to judge the energy, other than the briefly passing 'flicker' of whether the energy is 'compatible' or 'right for you Here and Now' or perhaps 'not right'.

When I read your comments online, or your things you post to others on your page or Twitter, I feel your Vibration--I get a good 'hit' of your 'aura' or 'Le Groseil'.

Just like with my crystals.

I may know you by name, and converse with you online, but in my 'senses' I 'pick up the feeling' that is there, both your 'mood' and your 'essence'. With each comment, with each message/request, and with each Tweet.

Whether you are aware of it or not, you also feel MY energy whenever you 'connect' with me and my 'Le Groseil'.

I had written about somebody whom, 'I had never given a second thought'. This person has a nickname for me online, a very flattering one, but because of the difference in culture and being a continent away, I thought this was from local customs.

Today when I first woke up, I remembered the conversation (in 140 characters or less, no doubt!) that led up to the nickname.

It was a new 'flavor' in his 'Le Groseil' that wanted me to get to know him better. So I private messaged. And got a flaming angry response. Are you trying to trick me?

I backed off. It was like, 'Dude, who pooped in your cornflakes?' I thought to myself. I wanted to run away. I think I did ignore all contact for a while. I also thought about my anonymity, and how posting in front of everyone like he wanted might put that at risk.

But I thought about it. After all this Lightwork, for so long of a time, there was only one who was 'sharing' what I posted in a pattern that made me realize 'he gets it'. Only the most helpful ones went through, and the not so spiritual ones were not passed along. It was him, the angry one.

I had never once read his page. Only thanked for the 'shares', if you will, to be polite.  It's etiquette. But then I knew I had to communicate one last thing to make the peace within my heart.

I explained to him, in a message, that the reason I wanted to get to know him is that it encourages me to  continue in my efforts as a Lightworker--as long as I was 'reaching' someone who was working for the same cause, it gave me the strength to go on! I didn't know better how to explain it, especially in 140 characters or less.

I was met with more anger.

And I countered it with, 'my love is stronger than your hate...'

After this, I got the nickname. There is a sweetness and a kindness to the 'Le Groseil' that I have never before experienced. It started with a congratulations in the form of a 'high five' that made me realize he was listening to my very soul.

Although we have never met, or even heard voice or seen each other, I know him by his Vibration.

This isn't enough to make a life choice; fortunately, this is not the time to make any major life choices. Not with the Energies as they are out there leading up to The Event. But the connection is meaningful to me Here and Now, and I hope perhaps in time, a friendship that is perhaps more, will grow. Even though I am certain past lives played an important part of the connection, all that matters is we are Here and Now.

The Gooseberries between us are right. And when they are really right, they have the opportunity turn into 'the butterflies' in in my stomach, the very nice ones everybody likes to have.

I'm in no hurry. I have all eternity to get it right.

And for today? Big plans! The Pantages with friends who have season tickets, and then dinner with my  family.

No matter what your 'task', 'assignment' or 'purpose' in your Spiritual Life, you may always take 'a little break' from time to time. Just like with studying, it helps you concentrate more when you return your focus back to it after the 'break'.

In the meantime, why don't you just stop and enjoy Les Groseils? (the gooseberries)?

Aloha and Mahalos,
Namaste,

What 5D Feels Like

A German Tourist feeds a Giraffe at the Safari Park

This Giraffe is the 'star' of the park and always in every official photo

This is because of the perfect heart-shaped marking on her neck.

Can you imagine feeding a Giraffe? It is one of the coolest things you can do on earth--and for a moderate fee, you can go on the back of the truck at the Safari Park in San Diego (actually, the suburb of Escondido) and feed Giraffes acacia leaves on a tour.

The energy is electrifying to be near such a beautiful creature. The connection truly amazes you, and you experience joy so much you never want to leave.

Positive feelings like this are very much what it is like to be 5D and higher. What dimension am I? I have always understood on this assignment I am 6D working on reaching 7D. However, recently I read some of my channelled notes in my personal journal. When I was with an Ascended Master, I think, Jesus (yes, I see him. He is VERY handsome, too. And nice!), when I asked him what dimension I was in, he said 'Seven' but held up NINE fingers on his hands at the same time. As such, I haven't got a clue about what dimension I am currently in; I just know 'we are not in Kansas--3D--any more'. ; )

Here are some of the things I am starting to notice about myself that are 'different':

• Life is a drama-reduced zone--most things don't shake me. Only being exhausted and my kid trying not to get ready for bed gets me upset.
• I find I am a little impatient with him--not others--for jumping to bizarre conclusions and needing extra explanations for 'what is going on'. This is because I am understanding things in a social context (which he doesn't 'get') as well as telepathically. Having to 'stop and explain' something that is obvious to me is an annoyance.  It is not his fault--I think he asks because he is like 4D and wanting to understand but I am like 5D and feel like I am being 'held back' by his questions.
• Others at work are starting to notice how I 'let slip' with information that I have 'accessed' with my Higher Consciousness--for example, 'How did you know? How DID you possibly know THAT?' when I shared about the new trampoline park near my home with a single dad who had just not been able to go to his local one yesterday because it was full. 'I picked up the phone!' he said in astonishment.
• My appetite is less for meat and more for higher vibrational foods. Alcohol has lost its 'appeal' --I now skip wine with dinner routinely--me, the Sicilian! My friend 'was done' one day with 'ganga'--something I had loved her unconditionally for and accepted as a life-long thing for her but had been sad because it would hold her back spiritually from the most advanced levels. This is a miracle! Both of us are experiencing life-style changes due to incompatibility of lower vibration substances with our higher Vibration. 
• Sometimes I experience stretches of time where I feel like I am not breathing and yet not uncomfortable. I do not know if it is physiologic, or if my focus is so intent that it escapes my notice.
• I manifest and co-create. Biggest example: friend I am getting to know has a career WAY different from mine. I was just wondering 'where did he go to school and who was his teacher?' Not one week later, I met his teacher, the founder of the school, at a lecture at his work. The Universe Provides.
• I didn't used to mind chores. Now I would rather focus on 5D things. So unlike before, I go through my chores quickly, much faster than before, just to 'get them done'.
• I have a pervasive sense of calm in everything I do.
• Paying the bills seems to be such a bother--it seems antique and unnecessary. Kind of like a 'throw back' from 3D. I still have to put together the tax documents to file for my extension. Ick.
• Yesterday I found time for something I enjoy--there was a small 'respite' in my home-work-family situation. I worked in the garden in the front yard, watering and trimming, to much happiness. And I also made a vinaigrette. Usually I just pour oil and vinegar because I am in a hurry. I always make my own salad dressing, without a recipe. This salad was raw and delicious--green lettuce, fennel cut way thin, and a little bit of capers. The vinaigrette had red wine vinegar,  olive oil, salt, pepper, and a little dry mustard. And I cook by 'feel' with 'guidance' and never measure properly, just like my Nanna Angelina did. I find this incredibly enjoyable to do.
• I have a sense of 'working with Spirit' and consulting for guidance with them when I need advice. Yesterday I had a decision to make, and I used my keychain as a pendulum before I got into the car. It was very helpful to 'touch base' and then have no regrets on what I was supposed to do.
• I feel like hugging people. At work and at home. Much more so than usual. And I do.
• Others are looking to me for example, at work, and 'waking up' before my eyes. They notice 'something is different' but do not understand exactly what is 'happening' to them. But overall, everyone is more supportive of each other and more willing to work together as a team.

Soon you are going to see changes like this in your life, too.

Namaste,
