1. New Fairy Class Starts Soon!

Thank you for taking the New Class Poll! We have a winner! (For those of you sighing because you wanted an Advanced Animal Communication class, don’t worry. We’ve got a monthly teleclass scheduled in November on that subject!)

New Fairy Class! Let me take you on an adventure.

I invite you to enter deeper into the fairy world. Maybe you took the Fairy Beginner Fairy Healing class, or dipped your feet into Fairies 101 for a look, or maybe you just love fairies and they’ve been sparkling in and out of your life. The Fairy Tools class (part of the Fall Session) we’ll dive into new healing tools you can use and apply in daily, practical life, while having fun exploring different parts of the Fairy Realm.

We visit the Cacti People for targeted help, dive down deep with the Water Spirits, enter Indian Gardens to clear out holes, go to the fields of manifesting magic, head to the Pond of Mirrors, and visit the Flower Garden to heal with color. Sign up in the next two minutes (just kidding), but seriously, if you sign up this week, each student receives a FREE guided fairy meditation to play with later! Go here.

3. Sketchbook Saturday

It’s my R is for Roses from the Healing Fairy Alphabet.

I love roses! When I moved here to my fairy castle I was pleasantly surprised to find several rose bushes in my yard. At the time, I really needed healing on all levels and just being by the Roses I am convinced has helped me. Roses lift us up from whatever pain, bad mood, or circumstance we are facing and give us a higher perspective so we can think again and see things clearly. Can you pick up some roses today to help you heal?

(I was so happy with the finished card, I used it for my header image!)

4. Fairy Uplifters

When you need to lift your spirits up, up, here’s my suggestions.

Grab for something squooshy and soft.

Look for the little miracles in the yard.

Eat pie.

Be creative and make something fabulous.

Think of pumpkins. You can’t be sad when you think of pumpkins.

6. In the Yard and Non-Negotiables

This week I explore my non-negotiables.

What’s a non-negotiable? I’ve been learning from my backyard. When I rented my Fairy Castle, it was the yard that I fell in love with. I dig roses and there’s quite a few, including the kind that smell really good. This backyard is like a little park I can sit in with my Emma Lou and swing back and forth as we admire the beauty.

When I water the plants, I watch their little leaves reach upwards in a smile. When I forget, in the inhospitable Arizona heat, I will find leaden leaves and a definite frown. It’s simple, but I am those plants. When I nurture and feed me, I pump up with color. I’m a shiny, happy thing. When I forget to water me, well…

But here’s the thing. I’ve taken in through my adult life some seriously faulty beliefs–that messed-up perception I talked about in my last post. It’s taken awhile and lots of work, but I am seeing those beliefs that include:

only when I make enough money will I deserve to have some rest

only when I give what others want will I have support

only when I work 80 hours a week and show I’m responsible will I get a pat on the head and what I need

Yuck!!! I am seeing that none of these beliefs work for me. I am sure you have some ONLYs in your brain swirling around. These need to be pulled! And in their place, I plant my non-negotiables.

In order to thrive as a Ronni plant, I need those non-negotiables. Having this yard and visiting Indian Gardens frequently I realize with certainty I MUST have constant interaction with Nature. It’s not lazy or irresponsible to take time out in Nature. On the contrary, I find it’s productive: I’m balanced and less emotional or reactive to other people’s stuff when I have time in the yard or the forest. It also feeds my creativity and my curiosity, which becomes many classes and books.

And in my usual, creative, visual fashion, I’ve been creating a chart to keep track of my non-negotiables (each drawn into a circle) as they come along. (To see it, Go Subscribe to My Newsletter.)

If I follow this line of thought, I also look at what waters me and what doesn’t. Translated, this means, what supports me and what doesn’t? Where do I feel SEEN, HEARD, SUPPORTED and APPRECIATED? Where do I feel ignored and forgotten, unimportant, or even poisoned? Let’s not focus on those weeds, just pull em’ out!

What are your non-negotiables and where do you feel watered?

8. It’s Spring and time for flower essences and fairies

It’s Spring! It’s Spring! And being outside for me in the forest or the garden is like food for me and my fellow “half-fairies.” Can you hear the call of Nature? My trees are getting their first little buds, the rose bushes are showing some life, and the birds are returning to my backyard trees. I can feel my spirit sigh in relief.

All this bursting of Nature is inspiring my fairy detective spirit. It’s not enough for me to just sit in Nature, I want to learn from it. I picked my first dandelions to make a flower essence the other day and was guided to make a few crystal essences according to their colors.

My first choice of flowers to buy at Home Depot was Pansies. Pansies are so wonderful for healing any sadness or heart issues. I grabbed the colors I was most attracted to — really striking white with purple insides. Their energy feels amazingly calming and wise. I am sure I will make an essence from them with permission. I need to go back there — Home Depot — problem is, I’m like a kid in a candy store there. I get that flower-high-thing going and it’s a little hard to leave. It feels like Home, so that store is correctly named. If I could, I’d probably go home with a hundred dollars worth of flowers. Hmmm…that’s an idea. Time to record my findings in my Repertory pages. Last year I made the purple pansy essence. This one feels somewhat different.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————-

If you love flowers like I do, and are a bit of a fairy detective filled with curiosity, my new class, Flower Essences FEC100 starts on Friday in Fairy Online School. Head on over to that page to sign up.

11. Weird dream tied into old lesson

I recently had a really wild dream that my bed was outside (probably my desire to live in Indian Gardens). It was a comfortable brass post bed, but I looked down to find I was surrounded by weeds all around me. I started pulling them in exasperation, but then I noticed I had pulled out a few daisies–that which I love!

I was talking to Bill the other day about this dream and we both nodded our heads in confusion.I figured it was telling me that maybe I wouldn’t like living outdoors after all. But I had the real meaning of the dream all along.

Here’s the funny part…reading an old post and lesson I had written about being thrown off by negative beliefs and planted bad seeds that looked like weeds, I had my light bulb moment! How funny my own lessons would make it into dreams to teach me again. And, what a good reminder and warning that what I was feeling was those bad weeds overtaking the yard and I was not only ignoring the precious buds coming up, but I had pulled them mistakenly out of the ground!

Cool, huh?

(I reposted that lesson below.)

14. I am grateful for…and fairy philosophy

Sometimes we start the process of being grateful when we notice what we are not grateful for. It’s spiritual to be cranky. I can lapse into complaints and feel sad for what I don’t have this holiday season. I am missing my loved one, and family and friends who are far away. The problem with forcing yourself to be positive and only think “good thoughts” is you don’t have that moment to be human and FEEL.

Whenever I am feeling sad, it’s best to just feel it so it relieves itself and the feeling is honored.

THEN I can be grateful.

I teach in my classes FAIRY PHILOSOPHY that I have learned. That philosophy is find the joy in the moment to lift your heart by being excited and happy about the little things. I’ve pretty much had this philosophy in my fairy soul since I was very, very little. We used to be able to do this easily as children.

So, although I am sad and grieving, I can be grateful when I look at my life and feel the fur and warmth next to me of my beagle mix, Sarah, who is elderly and still hanging in there at 14 years old! I can giggle at Emma Lou being silly playing with an empty water bottle.

I am well-taken care of in my life and have friends who love me and are always there for me. To be loved is an amazing thing.

I have lots of art supplies. (always a good thing).

I have community locally and on the internet. I have amazing students and clients who are wonderful people and animals.

But more importantly, I have a pumpkin pie in my refrigerator that I will probably eat all week long. And THAT I am truly grateful for.

I am reminded that finding the little things, keeps me in the present. It’s only when I look backwards that I feel old pain. Find the treasure underneath the rocks.

Fairy blessings,

16. Reconnecting to Everyday Joy and Miracles this week

Back in 2005, I started Fairy Online School. I was burnt out and tired in my intuitive biz from all the sadness I encountered, and I was going through lots of psychic, expansion changes. I needed support for my sensitivity and quite simply, a little joy to raise my spirits back up. In came that delicious fairy energy, and with it, my love for Nature, and the discovery of my first flower essence I created to heal.

What exactly is fairy energy? I believe we all have it deep down inside. It’s that joyful, playful part we had as children. It’s interested in discovery and gets excited over finding an inch worm on a leaf. It’s grounded in Nature and in our environment and our senses. It’s also that little bit of silly that has you laughing at inappropriate times when you need the humor the most.

This time of year, I always think of my mom, who crossed over in 1995, but is still a pretty active, visiting spirit.  When I was growing up, my mom shared with me the little delights in the world–collecting tiny toys for the holidays; having a hidden stash of candy to dip into; noticing the picture in the clouds; following  that cute, little inch worm on the leaf; and enjoying a good story. It’s the little things we can focus on to bring back the joy into our lives to keep us afloat when everything else in our world is crazy, and boy, life sure has been crazy!

I told my good friend the other day, if this is really end times, I want to go out drawing, snuggling my dogs, eating pizza and cupcakes every day! That’s the fairy way.

Fairy Online School is the marriage between that re-connection we have with the spiritual world that is filled with miracles, awe, and support, and the creating and enjoying with fairy energy as we learn!

I invite you to join us with the many from all over the world reconnecting to miracles, to those we think we lost, to new friends of support this Friday when Fairy Online School starts its new session. Develop your natural, intuitive abilities while having fun, and most importantly, reconnect to you! Head on over to this page to reserve your space in the classes of your choice that start Friday. (Go sign up for my newsletter, Fairy Blessings, and you receive a special fairy discount on classes).

19. Signs You Are Too Disconnected from Nature

It’s been too hot to sit in my yard. 104 degree days in Arizona make me woozy and my head wompy. I was surprised I’ve been getting guidance to find time to go outside anyway. When the girls and the turtle and I finally made it out to the yard, I was appalled by the amount of weeds there were. I think my rose bushes missed me; they were sad-looking. I plopped myself down on the rock floor and began pulling weeds one by one. Emma Lou, my basset girl came running over licking my face in excitement. She was so happy I was outside, finally. I felt embarassed, even a little guilty. Fairy girls NEED nature. It’s right up there with thrift-shopping, animals, and hugs. I hadn’t even noticed I was so disconnected with Nature until I saw the signs.

1. I’ve been neurotic. Now, keep in mind, I was half-raised by a neurotic, loving, worrying, jewish grandmother, so…I have my moments. But I was truly in “hamster wheel” thinking that went around and around with no resolution.

2. My energy was not grounded. I could tell this because my empathic sense was picking up EVERYTHING. I felt pulled into everyone’s story wanting to help and comfort. I couldn’t tell what was mine and someone else’s. It was just me flying around in the tornado like that cow in the movie TWISTER.

3. Because I was neurotic and not grounded, I was affecting my dogs who were worrying more too. They seemed much more relaxed from just a little backyard exposure.

4. I didn’t feel super creative. This is an abnormal state for me. I ALWAYS feel creative. There’s always ideas running around in my head of what I can make or do. I just didn’t feel like doing much of anything. It’s probably the heat, but definitely because I haven’t had yard time.

5. I was missing fairy energy. I only felt half joyful. A tiny, tiny bit silly. I needed to fill up my container with that good fairy buzz I get from being in the yard.

We hung out in the yard for a few hours and Sarah wandered around while Emma barked at the turtle trying to get him to play with her. The heat was rising so we made it to where we are now, hanging out on the couch with me writing. I think even a small dose of Nature is needed for me everyday to stay sane and happy. How about you?

—————————————————————————–

Incidently, two more weeks until the Fairy Healing the Feminine online class. I am currently writing a cool lesson in picking weeds from your life.  Go sign up now!

I’m totally digging this new class I am creating. Originally presented in a teleclass over at the Animal Spirit Network, I’ve embellished and added and morphed it more. I wanted to ask Nature how we could heal the feminine sides of our Nature especially when we are all so used to pushing ourselves and being so hard! This is the old way of doing things and doesn’t work. We need new tools.

In this very cool class that is now taking sign-ups and starts only a month away, we will cover:

Well, go rush on over and sign up!  Buy the class in July and take advantage of the lower rate special! Click here to sign up and buy.

Day 4 of using the new Arizona Pine essence.

The pattern of yucky feelings have moved into the healing pattern. Woo hoo! It’s been subtle after all the cleaning out of what was the block. This essence is definitely for blocks to feeling you deserve.

Today thoughts came through of what areas in my life I fall into complacency and feeling like, “Oh, what the heck. Might as well give up. I don’t matter anyway.” Yuck! Even sounds icky to read, huh? But it’s a good question. Where in your life do you not feel you deserve to have?

Experimentation continues….

——————————————————————————————-

For those of you who dig the fairy detective path, check out the Fairy Detective Certification/Mentorship, or the Fairy Beginner class to get started playing with and experimenting with flower essences.

I was guided to make Tree Essences right now. And, much like the exercise in my Rocks and Trees certification program, I am making the essences of trees found in my yard, which I probably need the most. This essence will be part of a series Tree Essences for Support.

My first essence is a leaf essence from my front yard’s Pine tree. He’s a dashing fellow with a strong presence and with lots of pine cones being born. I will share my journey with the essence in this blog as I share my own fairy detective explorations.

I took the first sip yesterday and boy, does that baby go to the heart of the matter. Holy moly! It’s an essence for healing shame and self-esteem like most Pine essences heal. But I know that every tree is different, so this Pine will have its own “take” on healing that theme.

First sip tasted good. I felt the essence go straight to my heart/chest. And then I heard “Oh, Ronni. what now?” I also heard the self-recrimination thought, “I’m such a screw-up.” Whoa. The essence had pushed up the yucky stuff.

I felt this way for a few hours just observing and hoping it would subside. But it was clear the messages were these old messages from when I was a kid. Heck, the voices even sounded exactly what I heard as a child, and the funny thing was, I had completely forgotten ever getting these kind of messages. I even wanted to make it better–those voices– by creating some kind of order in my environment, at that very moment. I started to clean out and straighten my desk drawers, for goodness sake. It was interesting to see how those kind of thoughts led to my wanting to control and make better, and then yelling at myself when I couldn’t fix things. I kept hearing this tree’s essences was for helping with feeling you deserve good things. That must be the positive healing pattern I am working towards.

Day two.

Took the essence again this morning. Things are already shifting. Had amazing insights into the “shame” issues. As a sensitive, I have learned how to take on the blame of what is others’ issues or faults to create peace in my environment. How unbalanced. I feel a peace coming over me realizing this.

Nature is so powerful in its healing. This beautiful Pine tree is giving me this amazing gift and it is simply in my front yard. I wonder if everyone is so sensitive to Nature healing or just some of us who are open to it. Maybe just fairies. :)

Research and experimentation continue…
