Love is Bittersweet
Sunny and Gizmo shared time close together this morning. Sunny was preparing to take off on a new adventure. Gizmo wanted to follow. She was doing wingers as if she was going to follow, but she wasn’t ready.
Gizmo spent the day watching and waiting. Then decided to go to bed early before sunset, seemingly resigned to the prospect of spending the night alone. Jackie must have noticed the early bedtime. She came back to offer comfort. Ordinarily, Gizmo would have got out of bed at her arrival, but he didn’t move.

She knows how it feels. She offered Gizmo some loving attention and searched the skies from the front porch. Major life changes are hard for all living things who Love one another. It’s hard to let go of an old life.
God knows how we feel. He will check in to let us know everything will be okay.
Romans 12:15
“Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep.”
We can give thanks for an Abundant Life and for the Power to Feel Love, even when it’s time to let it go. Maybe sorrow will be turned to courage for Gizmo to take a leap of Faith.
Deuteronomy 31:8
8 The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
MULUC is an offering of Faith and letting go of our way, giving thanks that God’s Love never changes.

Galactic Tone 3: Action. Three is basic movement and communication, which begins as a vibration. Three energy is very eloquent in all types of self-expression. Communication is how Three establishes a point of agreement between any point “A” and any point “B”. Three persons are rhythmic to the core and are often restless, as motion is their nature. By working closely with the energy of Three, any person becomes more able to predict motions of all kinds.
Offering/MULUC: Also known as the sign of water. Ceremonially, Maya use water as an offering in baptisms and purifications. These ceremonies are done to bring about a collective strength, adaptability and harmony. In sincere appreciation, Offering people gladly give more than they ask for themselves. Offering persons are dynamic communicators with great intelligence making them excellent employers. Like a shaken vessel of water, Offering people regain equilibrium quickly. Also like a body of water, there may be deep undercurrents of emotion and hidden dangers. Others perceive these as hidden agendas in offering people and so extend them little trust and may even slap blame on them.
A GOOD DAY TO: Offer appreciation for all of creation.
Cherokee, The River/YUN’WI GUNNAHI’TA: The River is symbolized by The Milky Way, the Gihli’Utsun’stanun’yi “Where the Dog Ran” to gather the souls for Heaven. The River is the minion for Grandfather Moon. Long Man is the personification of the River stretching from the mountains to the lowlands, speaking to those who can understand. People of this sign find “sermons in the stones” and good in everything. These souls march to a different drummer, driven by inner volcanic forces. The River is the “Fountain of Life” and represents the fluid of the cosmos to fluids in the body, with the energy to clear all karmic debts, personally and on a mass level with fluidity and grace. The Moon controls our fluid cycle, to clear and understand emotional issues. When you take this step to clear the emotional body, then you are ready for transformational energies at the next level. As humans, our actions are ruled by our emotions, the key is to understand the connection and honor the emotions.
