Had grilled salmon for dinner and the cooking fumes are still lingering.
Window open and scented candle burning.
Pity I don't have an air extractor.

Ah well ... it was good though
I'll bake next time

Feeling sleepy after the acupuncture.

Can't see the Lady Moon , but I know she is there.
Maybe I'll muster up enough energy to work on my vision board

see ya tomorrow

40 minutes. FLASHED by - it felt more like 10 minutes and I don't think I dozed off !
Had an attack of the giggles while lying there

Dipped into David Richo's " how to be an adult "

A psychologically healthy person needs the sustenance of the 5 A's

ATTENTION
ACCEPTANCE
APPRECIATION
AFFECTION
ALLOWING

ALCHEMY is the transformation of something into its opposite and happens in a container. A vessel , a crucible in which the lead of the ego can be transformed into the gold of the Higher Self. *thinks what a fantastic analogy *

Our identity cannot grow in isolation , because we are diological by nature

Only in the arms of someone can the first ' I am ' be pronounced, or rather risked "

D.W. Winnicott , Psychiatrist

Jung says that the longing for the spiritual is as strong in us as the desire for sex. I say, that authentic soul- to- soul- heart- to- heart -sex IS to experience the spiritual, the Divine .

The recurrent need for " the perfect partner" is a strong signal from our psyche that we have work to do on ourselves. For the healthy adult there is no such thing as a perfect partner except temporarily or momentarily. No one source of happiness exists , nor can a partner make life perfect . A relationship cannot be expected to fulfill all our needs ; it only shows them to us and makes a modest contribution to their fulfillment . We ask: ( I ask ) Could it be that I would not have learned what I needed to learn if I had met the perfect partner ?

The perfect partner is the mirage we see after crossing the desert of insufficient love

WOW .. *mira ponders awhile *

Only kidding .. nothing to moan about , apart from dentist's nagging.
They keep sending reminders and phoning ... as if I didn't have enough with my very own inner nagging voice STREUTH !

Right , moaning over .....

From my dream last night

I'm in a huge place ,
Olympic stadium size place
walls and partitions can be changed
for different functions
We are to see wild animals
lions , tigers
and the idea is to be as close to them as possible
without getting hurt or mauled.
Lots of people
We are directed all the time.
I am a little uneasy about being so close to the wild animals
but trust the organisers that adequate safety precautions have been taken.
At one point there is a panther .. some kind of big wild cat and a little lamb in the same enclosure and seem to be ok about it .
( sounds promising , dunnit ? ...lion lying down with the lamb )

Some big cats appear and mingle with us.
I touch one on the back while I can feel another is holding my foot lightly in his teeth.
" OY ! " and I tell the trainer who tells me everything is ok and moves the cat along.
One of the guards gives me a little Life-Light Ring ( healing gadget ) to wear on my fingers.

" Here - you will need one of these " he says and it makes me feel safe.
