Welcome to this week’s newsletter and card reading.
I hope this finds you well and in good spirits.
With my readings First, I do my own interpretations then, I write what is written in a booklet I received with the cards.
TAKE YOUR TIME MAKING THIS DECISION
From the Archangel Michael oracle card deck
From Me:
This is interesting because Mercury is in Retrograde and when this occurs you are advised to hold off on signing any contracts.
The color white is very prominent and represents purity, kindness, love, etc. Take this time to love one another and spend time together doing the things you normally put off. Since you can’t rely on everything flowing correctly during the retrograde, you may as well enjoy time with others or accomplishing a task you have put off for a while.
Archangel Michael is looking to the past. He seems to be preparing to let go of what is old and create the new with the white foundation. This foundation is for creating new ideas and putting them into action. Remember to put off those final decisions until after the retrograde so things come together smoothly.
**According to the Old Farmer’s Almanac, Several times a year, it appears as if Mercury is going backwards. These times in particular were traditionally associated with confusions, delay, and frustration.
Perhaps Mercury’s retrograde periods can cause our plans to go awry. However, this is an excellent time to reflect on the past. It’s said that intuition is high during these periods, and coincidences can be extraordinary.

The Card Reads: Archangel Michael, please help me stay strong and relaxed as I approach this situation. Remind me to detach and step back, allowing the situation to naturally unfold. Thank you for protecting me.
From the booklet: You’ve asked about a situation where there’s confusion or indecision, and this card is a sign that you shouldn’t rush into anything. More information will be revealed as time passes, which will naturally guide your actions. There’s no need to force anything right now. The opportunity won’t go away if you don’t jump on it immediately, and others will wait for you.
Positive specific meanings: Don’t sign the contract yet – negotiate for a better deal • Slow down the speed of a new relationship • Ask more questions before saying yes • Investigate your options and alternatives • Don’t be pressured by other people, as they’re only thinking of themselves
Let’s talk Self Help, Spirituality and More
My interview with Jim ‘Bubba’ Bay: A Near Death Experience, Miracle on Hammertown Road recently aired and I am sharing his info so you can learn more from him.
**The night of November 15, 2009 is one that Jim “Bubba” Bay will never forget. Walking on a dark road in Pine Plains, New York, he stepped backward out of the path of an oncoming truck – and plummeted 14 feet down a rocky gully, breaking 23 bones in his body, including 11 ribs, 10 vertebrae, his skull and his left scapula. What happened next changed his life forever, and many of the readers who have read about Jim Bay’s story – as described in his book, “Miracle on Hammertown Road” say that their lives have been changed, too.
**”Bubba” Bay has been a lifelong resident of upstate New York. He is an author, inspirational speaker, Landscaper. He also has worked for many years at his family’s gas station. He has 5 children, Logan and Lauryn and Jon, and sons Robert and James Ulysses in Heaven. Bubba’s favorite activity, besides spending time with his family, is metal-detecting.
** Check out Bubba’s book, “Miracle on Hammertown Road” where he Recounts his Near Death Experience and His Passion for Life. Jim advises my listeners should come away inspired and seeing that maybe their problems aren’t so bad after all. Also their faith may become stronger.

My Journey
I apologize for not being up to date with my newsletter but I will be refocusing back toward it so you can receive my readings.
~~My new adventure is Organization and I will continually share my progress. I have accomplished a lot already and I can see the floor of my office!! At the same time I dismantled my Christmas Village in my living room. I am balancing how much I do in each room so it doesn’t seem as overwhelming to actually complete each process. I plan to use my own experience to become a professional organizer.
See my photos below! You can also see a video on YouTube as I walk around the office pointing out all the “stuff”.
