Let go - I got it now...

Mon corps ne me ressemble plus, j'ai pris environ 70 livres en 1 an

Je reviens sur le "marché" des célibataires, j'entrouve la porte pour voir où j'en suis

Fin décembre j'embrasse le premier homme depuis W, ça aura pris un an...!

Je reprends confiance!

Retour au gym sereinement.

Rétrospective superbe, merci 2008.
Merci à tout ceux et celles qui sont partis(es), qui sont arrivés(es), qui sont restés(es) et qui sont présents(es), vous êtes des perles pour moi.

Moon River - Andy Williams and Henry Mancini

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after that same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

Lettre 14: Noun

14. NOUN, la Gardienne du Grand Oeuvre

- Valeur numérique : 50
- Signe astrologique : Le Scorpion
- Signification : Le Poisson
- Rayonnement : Vert émeraude soutenu

Notions - Clefs :

- La rencontre avec son Ombre
- Moments de grands changements, basculements...
- Apprendre la Patience
- La Vierge noire


Noun vient bousculer les anciennes habitudes, et il n'est pas toujours facile de réaliser la beauté de cet Amour qui nous interdit de nous endormir sur le Chemin, car il prend parfois la forme d'une épreuve déstabilisante.
Elle est pourtant l'alliée de notre âme de lumière qui nous pousse à grandir.

Dans les profondeurs de notre être réside notre Ombre, cette partie de nous qui nous fait peur, que nous n'aimons pas, et que bien souvent nous renions. Elle peut prendre nom violence, terreur, rancune, orgueil, égoisme...
Elle peut nous apparaître comme une bête hideuse qui se cache à la lisière de notre inconscient.
Noun nous invite à mieux comprendre notre Ombre, afin de lui faire goûter le pur Amour du Christ qui ne juge pas. Sans le savoir, cette part de nous-même aspire à la Lumière et l'appelle à sa façon.
Plus nous avons peur des ténèbres, plus cette peur les nourrit.
La seule clef est l'Amour qui démasque le jeu des apparences
et révèle l'appel désepéré de tout ce qui se croit non-aimé.
Sous une autre facette, cet appel peut être celui du corps de chair qui nous envoie un message. Nous croyons parfois qu'il nous fait mal, mais c'est nous qui le faisons souffrir, de mille façons, en oubliant qu'il a tant besoin de lumière.
Une maladie ou un choc physique est toujours un appel d'amour. Il est bon de parler à ses cellules, voir en elles le temple de la Vie.
Ainsi nous pouvons étendre notre bienveillance à l'Ombre de l'autre, qui ne pourra plus nous toucher négativement, car avec l'aide de Noun, nous pourrons traduire son expression négative en défi d'amour.

Blue Jay

The jay reflects lessons in how to use personal power correctly and efficiently. They remind you to pay attention and not allow yourself to be placed in a position in which power is misused against you. Those with jay as a totem need to heed this warning.

The bright blue crest on the top of a blue jays head links it to father sky, reminding those with this totem that true power must be utilized with integrity and balance.

Jays are incredibly resourceful. This can represent a need within you to learn adaptability for survival with the least amount of effort. Since the jay doesn't usually migrate and stays around all winter, it serves as a teacher who will settle in and work with you as long as you need it.

Jays are fearless and have been known to gang up and drive away hawks and owls. They know how to play the game of life and succeed. Jays reflect great talent, but that talent must be developed and used properly. If the jay has flown into your life it indicates that you are moving into a time where you can begin to develop the innate wisdom that lies within you. Jay is willing to teach you fearlessness, adaptability and survival but you must be willing to follow its lead and become "power through presence."

Beverly Hall, photographer

Always a profoundly spiritual person, Beverly finally struck out for divinity school in 1998. A self-defined "seeker," she was, she says, looking for a new identity, something beyond Beverly Hall Photography. She earned her master of divinity degree at the Episcopal Divinity School in 2002. “I came out of the closet as a believer,” she says of the experience. She also came away from her four years in Cambridge with an unexpected and renewed “appreciation for my art.”

That art weaves in and out of her spiritual life. It has carried over into the home she and her architect husband Sascha Illich have created on Tennessee Avenue in Madaket. Once just a fishing shanty on Hither Creek, she says “[their home] went from a tiny shack to a rather large extension.” Together they have masterminded there what she calls a transparent home”—where all windows look out on water or garden and the outside is as ordered and deliberate as extended “rooms.” “I’m always moving the ‘furniture’—stones, plants, trees, statues, tchotchkes—in the garden,” she says.

A lover of things in threes—of altars, of stones, of separation and integration, of silence, of prayer, and of safe places—Beverly, with Sascha’s technical skills and guidance, has made a “soul place,” as she calls it, of her garden and her home. With the exception of a few sassafras trees, she says, “we have rooted everything here.” Including themselves.Roots are of the utmost importance to Beverly. “My eye is restless. I am a restless spirit,” she says.

Which brings to mind a favorite quotation of Beverly’s, from Albert Camus:

A work of art is nothing less

than this long journeying

to find again through the labyrinth of art

the two or three simple and great images

upon which, once, the heart first opened.

Lost - Michael Buble

Summer turned to winter
And the snow it turned to rain

And the rain turned into tears upon your face

I hardly recognized the girl you are today

And god I hope it's not too late

It's not too late

'Cause you are not alone

I'm always there with you

And we'll get lost together

Till the light comes pouring through

'Cause when you feel like you're done

And the darkness has won

Babe, you're not lost

When your worlds crashing down

And you can't bear the thought

I said, babe, you're not lost

*
Le soleil se voile d'un épais brouillard
Les feuilles dansent au vent
Puis, elle tombe

La feuille dorée, tombe
Elle est seule
Dans l'eau

Dans la peur
Dans le froid
À la recherche d'un bout de soleil,
Encore...
Elle oublie la chaleur,
Elle oublie,
Que Force et Brillance
Sont juste là

De l'autre côté...
Va t'elle s'y rendre

S'y envoler...

Crows - Keepers of the Sacred Law

Crows are the keepers of the Sacred Law and to have a Crow totem is very powerful.

Personal Integrity are your watchwords and your guide in Life. If you have a Crow totem, your prime path is to be mindful of your opinions and actions. You must be willing to walk your talk, to speak your truth and to know your life's mission.

Crow is a omen of Change. Crow lives in the void and has no sense of time, therefore, it sees past, present and future simultaneously. Crow merges both light and dark, both inner and outer. It is the totem of the Great Spirit and must be respected as such.

They are symbols of creation and spiritual strength. Look for opportunities to create and manifest the magic of life. Crows are messengers calling to us about the creation and magic that is alive in the world todayand available to us.

The Magician

Taking action

Acting consciously

Concentrating

Experiencing power

The Magician is the archetype of the active, masculine principle - the ultimate achiever. He symbolizes the power to tap universal forces and use them for creative purposes. Note his stance in the picture. He acts as a lightening rod - one arm extended up into the Divine for inspiration, the other pointing toward Earth to ground this potent energy. His abilities appear magical at times because his will helps him achieve what seem to be miracles.

What makes the Magician so powerful? First, he is not afraid to act. He believes in himself and is willing to put that belief on the line. He also knows what he intends to do and why. He doesn't hesitate because he understands his situation exactly. The Magician can focus with single-minded determination. As long as he remembers the divine source of his power, the Magician remains the perfect conduit for miracles.

In a reading, the Magician implies that the primal forces of creativity are yours if you can claim your power and act with awareness and concentration. This card is a signal to act and act now, provided you understand exactly what you want and are committed to getting it.

The Mastery of Love - Pick a card

If you can heal yourself, then you are going to be ready for a relationship without fear, without need. If you and your partner each work on yourselves, you will see how quickly progress is made. - Don Miguel Ruiz, The Mastery of Love

Un amour plus grand que l'amour

Frères,
Parmi les dons de Dieu,
Vous chercherez à obtenir ce qu'il y a de meilleur.
Eh bien, je vais vous indiquer une voie supérieur à toutes les autres.

J'aurais beau parler toutes les langues de la terre et du ciel,
Si je n'ai pas la charité, s'il me manque l'amour,
je ne suis qu'un cuivre qui résonne,
une cymbale retentissante.
J'aurais beau être prophète,
avoir toute la science des mystères,
et toute la connaissance de Dieu,
et toute la foi jusqu'à transporter les montagnes,
s'il me manque l'amour,
je ne suis rien.
J'aurais beau distribuer toute ma fortune aux affamés,
j'aurais beau me faire brûler vif,
s'il me manque l'amour,
cela ne me sert à rien.
L'amour prend patience,
l'amour rend service,
l'amour ne jalouse pas,
il ne se vante pas,
ne se gonfle pas d'orgueil,
il ne fait rien de malhonnête,
il ne cherche pas son intérêt,
il ne s'emporte pas,
il n'entretient pas de rancune,
il ne se réjouit pas de ce qui est mal
mais il trouve la joie dans ce qui est vrai,
il supporte tout,
il fait confiance en tout,
il espère tout, il endure tout
L'amour ne passera jamais.

Lecture de la première lettre de Saint Paul, apôtre, aux Corinthiens (12,31 -13,8a)

A note from the Universe!

Don't forget, to put a picture of yourself in your scrapbook or on your visionboard!

And whenever imagining the life of your dreams, do the same. Be there, in the picture. Feel the textures, hear the sounds, see the sights, feel the joy, and taste the double-chocolate-ice-cream-latte-mocha breakfast meal.

I'd hate to deliver your new Journey to the wrong person!

Tallyho,

Ombres et Lumière

« Ami Photographe. À toi qui peut crier la beauté sans rompre le silence. À toi, voleur de lumière, qui emprisonne le temps sur la pellicule. Apprends-moi à voir d'un oeil nouveau le vieux décor de ma vie. Fais-moi aimer le petit matin, le soleil du jour et les ombres de la nuit... »

Woodpecker spirit

When a Woodpecker totem enters your life, it indicates that the foundation is there and it is safe to follow through. It will stimulate new rhythms. It reflects a wakening of new mental faculties.

You may be so wrapped up in mental and spiritual activities that you've neglected the physical. Listen to your body's rhythms and sounds and heed what it is telling you.

Those with this totem often find that their path in life will not always conform to society's standards and that their personal unique rhythm needs to be honored. Woodpeckers teach us to honor our personal truth and move through life with perseverance and inner strength. By staying grounded in our pursuits our goals can be obtained.

The woodpecker is known as the Earths drummer. Drumming is the heartbeat of mother earth and is associated with shamanism and the ability to move into other dimensions at will. For those with this totem the woodpecker represents self discovery. As they peck into and through trees and dead wood, hidden layers of ones psyche are revealed. Those with this medicine are good analysts and have strong mental capabilities. They make excellent psychiatrists and psychologists. Woodpeckers are active birds so caution is advised to maintain balance when reviewing any situation or issue. Too much analyzing can result in procrastination.

The woodpecker is able to find food hidden under layers of bark and wood and teaches us to dig deeply to find truth and deceptions. Woodpecker energy is associated with prophecy and the ability to see deeper than surface lies.

Woodpecker is telling us that even if something seems difficult to do, not to give up. To do what works, even if it is unconventional. To set your own pace, your own rhythm.

When Woodpecker bores into a tree in search of the beetles and insects which provide her sustenance, she uses her beak and head to drum out the holes and uncover her meal. This symbolizes the need for one with Birth Totem Woodpecker to gain emotional perspective, to learn when detachment is needed, to literally use her head instead of recklessly following her heart.

This is the process of integrating the emotional Center with that of the Mind/Physical, and a challenging task for one as sensitive and prone to bouts of overwhelming emotion as he. Yet when true discernment can be found, learning when to give freely, and learning when another is merely tapping a life sustaining vein without returning energy, then Woodpecker may find the rhythm of his own true Heartbeat, and make the leap across planes to greet an integrated Self.

Les symptômes de paix intérieure

Les symptômes de paix intérieure, Par Saskia Davis, 1984

· - Une tendance à agir spontanément au lieu d’à partir de peurs basées sur des expériences antérieures;

· - Une habileté indubitable à prendre plaisir à chaque instant;

· - Une perte d’intérêt à juger les autres;

· - Une perte d’intérêt à se juger soi-même;

· - Une perte d’intérêt à interpréter les actions des autres;

· - Une perte d’intérêt pour le conflit;

· - Une perte de l’habileté à s’inquiéter (ceci est un symptôme très sérieux);

· - Épisodes d’appréciation fréquents et exaltants;

· - Sentiments de satisfaction quant à la connexion aux autres et à la nature;

· - Attaques fréquentes de sourire;

· - Une tendance accrue à laisser les choses se produire au lieu de les faire arriver;

· - Une susceptibilité accrue à l’amour offert par les autres, ainsi qu’un élan incontrôlable d’en offrir.

AVERTISSEMENT : Si vous présenter quelques uns ou tous les symptômes ici énumérés, veuillez comprendre que votre condition de paix intérieure est peut-être si avancée qu’elle soit dorénavant incurable. Si vous êtes exposé à quelque personne présentant n’importe quel de ces symptômes, vous vous exposez à vos propres risques.

Diane Arbus - Photographer - 1923-1971

Soon after Arbus began her studies with Lisette Model, she began to devote herself fully to documenting transvestites, twins, midgets, people on the streets and in their homes, and asylum inmates. Arbus's pictures are almost invariably confrontational: the subjects look directly at the camera and are sharply rendered, lit by direct flash or other frontal lighting. Her subjects appear to be perfectly willing, if not eager, to reveal themselves and their flaws to her lens. She said of her pictures, "What I'm trying to describe is that it's impossible to get out of your skin into somebody else's.... That somebody else's tragedy is not the same as your own." And of her subjects who were physically unusual, she said, "Most people go through life dreading they'll have a traumatic experience. [These people] were born with their trauma. They've already passed their test in life. They're aristocrats." Arbus's photographs drew immediate attention from the artistic community. She was awarded Guggenheim Fellowships in 1963 and 1966 to continue her work. In 1967 her work was mounted in the New Documents show at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, along with the work of two other influential, new photographers: Gary Winogrand and Lee Friedlander. For the most part, the exhibition received extremely good reviews.
