The Best is Yet To Come

-
Tonight is the longest total lunar eclipse in over 120 years. And there's been a lot of hype about how this eclipse will bring endings in massive proportion. It can indeed be a turning point if you want to see it as so.

In my life, I kept thinking well I just quit my job, moved across the country, after having sold or given away nearly all my belongings. I am pretty much sitting on empty. I really don't see how much more can end in my life.

However, when one is at zero the next questions is always "what do I fill my life with this time"? What I chose before did it bring happiness, did it honor me, did it fulfill me? Much of it did not. So, I am being very selective about what I am going to let in this time.

In doing a lot of soul-searching, I am trying to figure out what exactly do I want my new life to look like? What I discovered about myself is that I need constant change and adventure. And if I love change and adventure so much, then I really don't want another 9 to 5 corporate job.

Currently, I am living with my sister in Haddam, CT. But I would love to travel the world and write. I've been trying to combine those two passions for near 30 years. Maybe between the July 27th Lunar eclipse and the Solar Eclipse on August, 11th that dream will be realized or at least I set a plan in motion to make it a reality!!!

What's your dream? What needs to end in your life? If you are sitting on empty, what do you want to fill your life with going forward? Make it good! Fill it with joy and passion!

Living Abroad - Year One

-

 It’s been nearly a year since I arrived in Poland. I thought to teach English to foreign language students, but the Universe apparently had other plans. And I can finally say I have firm footing here living abroad. Krakow, Poland - Wawel Castle A lot has happened over the last year, which seems to have flown by. I came here through the sponsorship of a TEFL business. I wasn’t all that impressed with the support, and low and behold, that business lost its ability to sponsor work permits in Poland. The announcement came in late December with an end date of June 30, 2022. So, I had some time to figure out what was next. In the meantime, I have been working as a content writer for several businesses in Poland.  Some of my other colleagues attached to the English TEFL business were severely impacted. There were over 400 teachers from all over the world, from Africa to Canada, that came here to Poland under this business sponsorship. Since the US had an agreement with Poland, I was...

Krakow Three months On/Lion's Gate

Over three months have passed since I moved to Krakow. I arrived before my fall internship to get acquainted with the city and life abroad, and besides not being able to speak Polish, it's been quite easy to settle in here. I found a place to sit in a cafe and write with WIFI. It's actually right across the street from my flat, Cafe Stockholm . They just added on a back patio and increased their menu to include lunch.  And because my flat is centrally located, everything I need is literally a five to ten-minute walk. I've found a place right around the corner that has coffee beans from all around the world. There are also two high-end wine stores located on my street and are less than two minutes from my building.  Last month I had checkups with my new doctors and got my prescriptions filled without a hitch. And if you want OTC meds, just bring your bottles to the pharmacist and they will give you the Polish equivalent. The people here are more than happy to help out in any...

The Power Couple – The Empress and The Emperor

-

 If both The Empress and The Emperor come up in a tarot reading, it means this is a power couple! Why are they a power couple? They both rule over their empire. They both have manifested success in their lives. They are both happy in their own right. They can both stand alone successfully when not together. The Empress sits on her padded throne with her abundance all around her. Her crops have just started to sprout out of the ground before her. On her left side is a stone with the Venus sign denoting her as the Devine Feminine and representing true love. She has a lush forest behind her with a flowing waterfall on her right side. The sky is a bright yellow signifying her happiness. She also stands for fertility and the beginnings of manifestation in your life. Her gown is dotted with red flowers, denoting passion, and is white, symbolizing purity. When she appears in a male’s reading, this foretells true love. As The Empress is also the divine mother in the tarot, she can al...
