thanks everyone

the little tigermoth is doing extremely well - loves the milk bar and to sleep between his mama, dadio and baby paps. Tribal bed

will concot a suitably papillon birth story soon - it is still sitting weaving itself around the fabric of the Yurt and within the bushel of my mind. Thanks Glitter

I just realised yesterday that the Yurt is atm my "church"... spirit home and I have visited here often while birthing and so forth, having some great visualisations to sorjourn/journey with in RL!

Great to chat melsy... we talked 40 minutes

Hey congratulations Paps, sooo good to hear of the safe arrival of ds. ((((((paps and family)))))) take care and hope you all do ok in the forthcoming weeks, will send you some energies, cos always like 'shell shock' feeling at beginning of new member to hte family eh!

Take care of yourself Paps, most important to remember U ! I wish i was doing meds etc when mine were that young, being in touch with inner self would of meant me not losing touch with the importance of 'life'

Take care and hope you enjoy and are very happy.

I've baked some luverrrrllllyyy cookies for everyone to celebrate!

((( hugs to all )))

iris66 · 30/11/2005 19:24

Huge congrats to you and your new DS Paps! May love and light surround you all. Am blowing rainbows round and through the yurt roof in celebration (((((hugs)))))

Paps birth announcement

Have had some good visualisations and cleared what minor debris there was about the change from home to C-Section birth. Glad that I have adjusted so well and that I can welcome change as inspiring and enjoyable! A spiritual adventure

Iris... how is your transverse unborn spirit doing? Can we / I help in any way?

Sax big (((()))) hope you are doing okay. Bonds or feelings you feel you may have missed out on with your dd were meant to be, and they show you how you can be so with her today

I did not have the same unspoken communication with baby paps that I do with Tigermoth, but that is part of the learning curve of spiritual life and parenthood

Have a good day everyone and here is a big cake to celebrate Tigermoth - who flies with his "L" plate attached with the Yurt children before coming down to land for bf and sleep with his mama

chIRIStmasfairybigpants · 02/12/2005 09:55

Oooh Paps. Such a wonderful experience with Tigermoth - your little starman. Fab cake too, have brought some elderflower wine with extra sparkle to help the celebrations along

TY so much for your thoughts about my LO Paps. Luckily, he moved ceph early Wed morning so I'm hoping he'll stay there now. Am currently meditating on a birthdate for him iaw my hypnotherapist's suggestion. TBH LO told me his date many months ago but we'll have to see whether he sticks to it!
I've put some extra logs on the yurt fire so it's nice and snug for when you and Tigermoth pay a visit.
love and light x

Papillon · 02/12/2005 15:16

Lovely fire Irisbigpants Great name! I need one too... but cannot think of anything yet.. any suggestions?

Great news about your wee soul LO moving ceph

Glitterfairy how are you doing? I have been dropping wee spirit stones from my cliff top meditation spot into the hot pools for you and the sunflower man. You have sunflower man, I have starman/tigermoth

glitterfairy · 03/12/2005 18:31

Oh Paps thanks for the cake. Sunflower man still doing sterling work and have a friend who ahs recommended a homeopath and healer for me at the moment. I am going to visit her in the next few weeks and see if that doesnt bring me some inner peace as well. I need to make myself very strong for this now and I think the time has come to get in touch with my hippy side again and am thinking of doing a meditation course as well.

Tigermoth is in a little crib sized flying boat I see and the others are looking after him as well. He is gorgeous Paps and I am so glad you have adjusted to difference so well. My boy was the most snuggly and mum loving of them all as a baby.

glitterfairy · 04/12/2005 19:40

Lovely to talk in rl today oh sage one!

Have had a reasonable day in the yurt and land of the bong tree. Then it all became magical when paps landed a magic kissing stone on my head which burst into a thousand glittery stars and cast an aura of protection around me.

I am going to carry that aura tomorrow when the fallout from my weekend may occur.

I am going to be sitting in rl in a dark theatre whilst my son flies about in Peter pan the panto but here I will be watching him flying whilst sunflower man brings me my sherbet and the other children laugh and play on the golden sands wiht the dolphins.

Papillon · 05/12/2005 07:30

Fabulous to talk to you (((((glitterbabe))))) Hope you like the new thread I started for you and may it be full of tongue, cheek and wisdome !

So glad that my aim was pure and divine and that the glitter magic kissing stones connected with your crown chakra. I feel that they have cast good protection around you and when I feel you need some more I will again cast it aura upon and around your life so that it encompasses Sunflower man and all your darling children.

I also threw one far and wide into the land of RL to your unhinged mate - to reduce his feelings of anger and his need to find satisfaction in revenge and button pushing. It will not constrict him, but help him find new breezes to walk with.

Wonderful that ds is flying about in PeterPan... how wonderfully we do unconsciously connect here and in RL with the Yurt pirate ships! It is an honour and I give it much blessings and respect.

xxxx

Melsy SPEAK!

glitterfairy · 05/12/2005 07:55

HI Paps hun am sneaking a post in whilst organising lunch boxes in rl.

It is strange the weird connectedness of things. Ds gets captured by pirates in Peter Pan here they are all friendly and fun. The priates ship has strong sails.

Thank you for your protection I need it today as I am fearful of what may come. I am glad you sent one to xh as well as he needs to become calmer and more at peace but I fear that this will take many years to accomplish if ever.

In the end I have a sanctuary and my childrens support and there is no other greater blessing.

Sunflower man is nodding and has beckoned me to the shores of the lake where my horse awaits to take me for a gallop out onto the vast prairie where I will blow all my cares away before another day listening to the mer folk and watching the children laughing and playing by the shores wiht the dolphins.

HAve a wonderful day paps in the yurt I have left you a carrot cake!

Papillon · 05/12/2005 08:04

Yum thanks so much.

Speak to your fear terror place tonight while in bed. Was just talking to a friend about terror as it happens 2 days ago and I suggested to her to make friends with her fear. To see it as an okay aspect and that terror is a form of protection - because it guides you to watch and stalk where the terror lurks in RL.

Here is a little stone for your pocket, hold it over your heart today when your feel the fear coming and think of the Yurt It will protect you and instill you stand in your love power place and say

I am not willing to accept the terror another trys to make for me. It is their terror, their responsibility and I draw a line that cannot be crossed.

xxxx

glitterfairy · 05/12/2005 16:09

Yes and the terror is never as bad as you think my imaginary terror is so much worse. I am keeping your stone for tomorrow many thanks paps! xxxx I will talk to my fears this evening in bed as I feel much much calmer today.

It must be your protection.

PapsisShamanSantaSwissMiss · 08/12/2005 07:03

Paps has been astral travelling away in the Land of Slings, and returns today to her cliff top space of reverie.

From my high viewpoint I can see far and wide, past the Yurt, over the land of Bong to the Coast of Coromandel. Each place has its own aura and stories to tell, lessons to smile upon.

Under me like babes in their nest is the hot pools, the lie up against the cliff amongst the Rimu trees and before them is the lake. The pools bubble with ever renewed life and sustenance for all who bask and soak it is rewarding waters. The steam from the pools rises and curls in the air like a magical wand spreading warm fuzzy to the far and beyond places we share.

To the left is the place of the waterfalls. One which falls directly into the lake. This is place known as dropsinthe lake. A great place for swimming with the dolphins. Just around the corner is another waterfall that sits nestled in the rocks and ferns. Many beautiful orchids dwell here as do the rainbows of Iris and the glittered fairies.

The Yurt stands at the edge of the forest and can be glimpsed if you concentrate and see through the protective mists that swirl and wrap the Yurt in its magical sepia fronds.

Can you see more of our land? We can draw our land all the time in our minds for meditation and visualisation

glitterfairy · 08/12/2005 07:54

Ah Paps I see you there throwing your magic stones which burst around my head in a halo of starry protection. I feel blessed to be here today.

There is a lake where I am which lies silent and still at the moment although it can be stormy and dark which has its own magic. The lake is surrounded by mountains which are capped with snow and whose tips are reflected in the lake.

Around the edges of the lake are ancient oaks and some old pines. The shores are sandy and the water is warm enough to bathe in. In the lake are magic fish each one a rainbow of colours who speak only in rhyme and sing a magical song of peace and hope. The fish will swim with you if you want company but otherwise only surface to sing and speak when summoned by a question or an unasnwered need.

glitterfairy · 09/12/2005 16:41

THank you for oyur wonderful pictures paps.

I have a mild headache and sunflower man is soothing me with a cake and some seeds.

PAPSisShamanSantaSwissMiss · 09/12/2005 17:03

Mild headache here too and have had a very busy day with lots of kids running around and adults to entertain.

We had a beautiful green split pea soup with vegetables and fresh bread for lunch. Made such a big pot that I am bringing here to the Yurt. We also had alfalfa sprouts on bread. The kids all loved the sprouts and I said they were all cows chewing on their cud!! So healthy!

Looking forward to sleep tonight! But first I dive gracefully off the cliff tops into the deepest hot pool for a soak. Some stones follow me down so the splash reverberates with glittery protection and refreshment.

glitterfairy · 09/12/2005 17:21

Ah the refreshment is what I need. Slept well last night wiht my rose quartz next to my bed. After my remedy also feel tired but am off to see ds in the panto tonight.

May take the space to visualise my glittery protection and you diving in hot pools. Later as I drift off I will find a space where the dolphins sing and my tired head rests on a nest of moss amongst the glitter stones by the shores of the lake.

PAPSisShamanSantaSwissMiss · 11/12/2005 16:30

Glad you enjoyed the ultra-violet jewel from above

Tigermoth has shown his home of the West in Peru, today he shows you his home in the South, Aotearoa. My brother tells me he is third break at Raglan! and in the quiet of sunset HERE

He is the waves of the South and the river and trees of the West and the Yurt enjoys turning and travelling towards these sacred spaces.

While Tigermoth surfs and contemplates, I sleep in the Yurt upon cashmere and silk

PAPSisShamanSantaSwissMiss · 11/12/2005 17:38

TTTTAAAAMMMMBBBBAAAA

How ARE you ??

Here is a strawberry sherbert specially 4 u!!

Tamba · 11/12/2005 17:53

Hello

I heard you shouting Paps lol

I am good I feel like i have really changed lately, even down to the clothes i wear! Its so strange! Its like i have fallen in love with dh all over again and i have so much confidence and I am secure that i am a good person and that i look kinda ok! I dont know where its come from, I am wearing a Skirt today!!! sounds really silly, but its only in the last couple of weeks that i would have worn one cause i would have thought my legs were to fat or my bum to big etc - but they arnt and it looks nice! (have hippy patterned tights on too ) realised that my hair is nice too (i was always teased about it in school so had a complex) its down to my waist and ive been putting in in different styles, wearing big chunky earings etc - i would never draw attention to myself before. I bumped into some old 'school friends' yesterday who I was mates with but always felt they didnt like me and i wasnt good enough but seeing them now i was really fine and and and.. i could go on all day lol

Whats changed?? Whatever it is, im enjoying it!!!

sorry about the ramble I havent been on the computer much lately, have been reading alot

Tamba · 11/12/2005 17:54

BTW - I am eating sherbert atm - not strawberry though but close

I loved the piccies of your lil man!

PAPSisShamanSantaSwissMiss · 11/12/2005 18:21

I was going to say raspberry at first...

you will have to send me a pic of yourself... now that I have "revealed" myself to you!! Great you are falling in love all over again

Tamba · 11/12/2005 18:42

its rasberry!!

OMG at piccies - I havent got that confident yet lol (also dont have a didgital camera )

PAPSisShamanSantaSwissMiss · 12/12/2005 10:19

I need to learn not to second guess myself because my first guess is the right one. But logic the all powerful medium of society elbows in on the intuition!!

Me and the lurkers will have to imagine you instead Tamba, in your flowing skirts and nose stuck in a book!!

Great to hear you are evolving inside and out! I look back and see in myself, also many life stages and different apparel statements
