Lady Heather's Domain: My life in a Nutshell

So this year my seeds of intent were: This year I had 4 seeds in my apple. So this year my seeds of intent are: And for this next year I got 4 seeds of intent and they are going to be: 1.  Continue to get healthier and try to get all blood tests into the normal range. While I stumbled a bit, I was able to find out my heart is healthy and I am doing pretty good with my blood work. 2.  To increase my speaking and work towards becoming a speaker. I will be speaking at an event in November and continue to speak at Sacramento State. 3.  Continue to follow the path the Goddess has put in front of me especially when it comes to being a therapist. I am learning to take what comes and work with it.  The Goddess is providing a wonderful learning experience with the path she is leading me on. 4.  Start figuring out how to move from Sacramento. I now see it will be harder than I planned, and I know for at least a year or so we need to be here in Sacramento...

The Hunter's Full Moon or Blood Full Moon is the first full moon after Mabon (Autumn Equinox).  The Hunter's Full Moon is named because the full moon give light to hunters tracking their prey before the cold winter settles in.  They are able to stock up on the protein they will need to make it through the winter. In October, we see the Blood Moon travel through the sky. This moon is also called the Shedding Moon or the Falling Leaf Moon, depending on where you live. In many places, it's the Hunter's Moon - it's no coincidence that hunting season is in the late fall. Coming right before Samhain, this is a time when the nights are crisp and clear, and you can sense a change in the energy around you. My daughter will be released from jail really soon.  A new chapter will start where I will not know where she is or what she is doing and that is tough - letting go will be really hard for me.

  This year I am really working at making healthy decisions.  Next week I will have foot surgery so that I can walk better and get myself back on track.   I am feeling pretty good about my life at this point in time.  I am working on myself emotionally and professionally.  My husband and I are still in love and I am looking forward to the weather cooling.   Let peace go where we let things go and let everything we let go, leave us with the knowledge and experiences we need for the future.

This is the time we finish reaping our harvest.  Seeing what we actually gained for all of our hard work. Its time to finish bringing in the harvest and start decideing what we are going to do with our harvest.  Will we reinvest it, use it, trade it... so much to decide.  It is also a good time to see if what we harvested was really what we needed or wanted.

Today I went to court to give my victim's statement re: my daughter's burglary charge from her burglarizing our home. Below is my statement. There is now a 5 year no contact order in place. I hope she gets her life together.   To my daughter Grace, Nearly 16 years ago you came into my life. I struggled to be the mom that you needed. I know I wasn't perfect and I have made plenty of mistakes. The worst day in my life was when I got the 1:30 am phone call by a man who was torturing you and was going to kill you if I didn't give him the money. 5 hours away, I had never felt so helpless, neither Bakersfield nor Sacramento Sheriff's Department could help me help you. I thought after all of that, things would change, but they didn't. 2 weeks after that horrible night, you broke my heart by breaking into our home. You allowed others to invade our home to party, trash it and steal from us. You stole our car and the credit...

This is the time we start reaping our harvest.  Seeing what we actually gained for all of our hard work.  These are my seeds of intend this turn of the wheel: 1.  Continue to get healthier and try to get all blood tests into the normal range. 2.  To increase my speaking and work towards becoming a speaker. 3.  Continue to follow the path the Goddess has put in front of me especially when it comes to being a therapist. 4.  Start figuring out how to move from Sacramento. And I am reaping: 1  I am continuing to eat healthy and to walk.  I have had some backsliding but I will get back to where I want to be. 2. I got to speak in front of other therapists about how to work with transgender clients. 3. I am going with the flow knowing that is the path that the Goddess put me on. 4. I am looking into options on how to move away from Sacramento, but realize at this time it will need to be put on hold.

  Time goes so fast.  It is now Lughnasadh.  We celebrate together as we all work to bring in the harvest.  This year my harvest has just started coming in and finally it is positive.  We were able to take our 2nd Alaskan Cruise in July. We were able to go to Oregon and I saw one of my clients and now I am going to Seattle to a conference.  I am really starting to enjoy my life. My son is doing well and starting his 4thyear of college and will start a 4 year college next fall. I am licensed and loving my new clients.  Hoping to start to get on insurance boards sometimes soon. It will be interesting to see how the rest of this year's harvest will be.
