As per Merriam-Webster:
*Magic - a power that allows people (such as witches and wizards) to do impossible things by saying special words or performing special actions
*Miracle - an unusual or wonderful event that is believed to be caused by the power of God
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is.” ~ a favorite quote of mine attributed to my friend, Albert Einstein. The way I see it is that we, people, are all part of God, the Universe or the Creative Source – however you wish to address the One Who is accurately unnameable with human words. So when people take godly action with “special” intent, magic and miracles are the result. Every One has magic in them and Every One is capable of manifesting miracles. That being said, I’d like to share with you some enchantment and delight in my experience.
Months back, I was still raw and recovering from the intensely disconcerting challenges I managed to open 2016 with. Earth Angels were hosting me in their warm home as I was in my “cocooning” process… Read previous blogs: Let It Go & Have Courage and Be Kind. It was a rare glorious sunshiny morning on their beach. Rare because, in that part of the world, much of the year the mornings begin foggy or overcast. Although I was doing my best to focus on and appreciate the sand under my bare feet, the warm sunshine on my skin, the hypnotic sounds of the waves…..my monkey mind kept taking over. “How could I have let myself get sucked in to such a dark situation?! Why didn’t I stop when I saw the red flags? I know I was following my guidance….maybe it wasn’t so reliable after all. Maybe I couldn’t ‘read’ anything. Maybe I didn’t have those ‘special’ abilities I’ve shared with a few others. Maybe I’m making all these things up.” Yup, the mental chatter continued ripping into me in spite of my constant efforts to shift my attention to brighter topics. Simultaneously with the “maybe I’m making all this up” nonsense tormenting my mind, I saw a mental picture. A heart ruby ring surrounded by tiny diamonds appeared. I was a bit confused as it looked like the heart shaped ruby ring I have often worn for years. In fact, that one graced my left ring finger as I walked. Again the mental image showed me the ring under the sand. “Yup, I'm really losing it now….this is all a figment of my fertile imagination!” I told myself. Still mentally berating myself, I almost continued walking. Then curiosity got the best of me. I took a step back and moved the sand where I “saw” the ruby heart ring beneath. Lo and behold I picked up a ring….with a heart shaped ruby surrounded by diamonds, extremely similar to the one I was currently wearing on my hand only there was a small piece of the band inside missing! Upon closer examination, the similarities to mine were uncanny.
It could have been made by the same company/designer as the one on my hand that had been lovingly gifted to me a couple decades ago. Sharing my miraculous story with a confidant in an effort to determine the meaning of this broken heart ring, she offered, “You are the treasure”. My sister added, “…that most people don’t see”. It was a treasure that most folks would not have seen indeed. The story goes on and on with a number of twists and turns along the way. It ended up being repaired and now I wear it also on the opposite hand as the other. When I found it I was totally doubting myself and my abilities. This was a direct result of allowing myself to be broken down earlier in the year second guessing everything Icomplete and have access to the Infinite powers of God and the Universe as long as I remember and align myself in the proper manner to that energy.
Another Entity – Familiar – Energy that I align with is that of my playful Dolphins. It is impossible for me to even describe in human language my relationship with them. I “know” more things with them. My own power is enhanced and remembered more acutely through them. Near my Dolphin family, I feel an indescribably joy that fairly bursts from inside me. The secluded tropical beach home of my dreams is unquestionably near them as you may remember in Baring My Soul and Planting a Dream. The last time I was in their physical presence was in Hawaii toward the end of last year..Aloha and Mahalo I even had the magical opportunity to swim with them up close and personal – or, would that be, dolphinal? Whatever you call it, that was an intimate, almost outer-worldly experience. Yes, that is how I want to feel every day! That felt as close to my “natural state” as ever.
As mentioned earlier, we all have magical capabilities that include connecting with Dolphins, or whoever we wish to connect with, even when we are not in their physical presence. Spiritual or telepathic communion can be just as potent, if not more so, when we discover how to get on the same energetic wave length. Glimpses and snippets are all I personally have achieved at this point in time leaving me longing, at other times, for their uplifting loving company. Anne Gordon De Barrigon is a friend who hosts Whale and Dolphin retreats and observation trips in Panama and other locations. She knows how to communicate with our cetacean friends telepathically as well. This particular message from the Dolphins via Anne left me feeling they were in my presence again/still. My finned family has magically visited me in a number of other ways as well. Ready for one more story? Alright, I’ll keep it short and sweet.
While I was in the “right” place at the “right” time a number of weeks ago, the urge arose to travel back to a location where nature nurtured me more. I also longed to be in my Dolphins' physical presence. Starting to peacefully make plans to be on my way, my life turned on a dime once again. Literally, within an hour’s time, I knew without a doubt what my next mission was. Although thrilled with the clarity and prospect of making a positively magical difference, it wasn’t going to be anywhere near “nurturing nature”. Going to my new “assignment” in the octave of my magical birthday (Aloha), my dear friend and host mentioned she had a birthday gift for me. Keep in mind when we got together a few days before, she didn’t even know I was going to be in the area and suspected from a fb post when my birthday was. I was speechless when she presented the hand carved wooden sculpture she’d acquired from the artisan. Deeply moved to tears, I was sure the Dolphins were reminding me, through her intuitive kindness, that they were and are always with me.
The recent proverbial icing on the cake happened a few days ago. While having wistful thoughts about being with my dolphins I saw a message in my email. It was a glowing image reminding me of their constant presence via my friend. Maybe you feel the joy and connection with them too as you gaze upon this picture….
Please also feel my profound gratitude as you continue on this journey with me. Your support and love mean more to me than you know as well as the many ways Dolphin Energy is reflected from within your own hearts. Infinite oceans of blessings my friends…..
P.S. But wait! There's More! The day after I posted this, another dolphin miracle occurred. The intuitive, kind lady who gifted me the exquisite wood carved dolphins has an amazing son. He just returned from a cruise and was thoughtfully presenting his mom with gifts from his travels. To my surprise, I was called into the conversation. The young man had brought a gift for me! This was astonishing enough but the actual gift really put me over the top. It was a glass cube with a laser etched figure inside.....a mermaid riding a dolphin!! Realize he doesn't know me much, didn't consciously know a thing about my dolphin connection and was totally unaware of his mom's dolphin gift to me previously. I am soooo grateful for all the beautiful people in my life streaming joyous dolphin energy!!
