Friday Blessings ✨
Yes! Bless this family. We got a Christmas🎄 miracle! He was able to come home a few days. Thank you jesus! Best Christmas Gift!
So the other day I came up with "gardening blessings" for my mom's garden.
May your peanuts never be eaten by squirrels again
May you continue to grow corn with popcorn kernels
May your peas never be dehydrated (I said that as I looked at a pea that look dehydrated)
May no one curse your fig tree
May you continue to grow things accidentally
— ALIGNMENT.
you're at the right place right time💐
✨🍂🪔 Blessed SAMHAIN 🪔🍂✨
May your honor those who passed this year and all the ancestors
May the thinning of the veils allow for the wisdom of the ancestors to imbue you
May you be intimate with your darkness and find inspiration and resilience in it
May recollections of what has been fuel your attunement to and excitement for what is to be
May the turning of the year shower you with peace, clarity, strength, vision, and joy
May your Soul's wishes manifest as plentiful as seeds of a lush pomegranate
May the new cycle come bearing abundant fruits, gifts, and rewards for you
May you find wholeness and bliss in honoring all your relations, mother Earth, and Self
May you joyfully embrace the infinite cycles of life - birth, death, rebirth
May this Samhain cleanse your mind, heart, and being!
A happy New Year to all of you! May the New Year 2021 bring you more love, happiness, and blessings!
Stay Safe & Blessed!

Daily attitude of gratitude
Today I am thankful for the rain, but not too much rain as there was a lot of flooding north of here. I am thankful that my parish is only a couple of blocks away and I can always attend Mass easily every Sunday. I am thankful for the peace that I feel during this rather transitional time for me. How about you? What are you thankful for today?
On Being Poor
This is going to sound a bit weird, but as a Catholic I am thankful that I don't actually have a lot. I am not attached to what I have either because none of it is worth much. There is a blessing in being poor. It means that my focus can be elsewhere. I am not talking about abject poverty here, because we have always had enough, and we often have a bit more than enough. I am saying that it is a blessing to be content with that. It is a blessing to not be able to look lustfully and enviously at what I cannot afford and what I do not need anyway. I have learned not to care about such things. I wonder if I had a lot of money, if my life wouldn't be a lot tougher from a spiritual point of view. To be content with enough, with what you have, and to have what you need, truly is a great blessing.
Being raised in an atheist household has actually strengthened my love and appreciation of Christ because even as a nonbeliever child I still could feel his presence when in need!
Cultivating a Life of Gratitude, Appreciation, and Countless Blessings

It's easy to get caught up in our daily routines and forget to appreciate the simple joys that surround us. However, taking the time to acknowledge and express gratitude for the blessings we have can bring immeasurable benefits to our lives. In this blog post, we will delve into the transformative power of gratitude, appreciation, and counting our blessings.
1. The Power of Gratitude:
Gratitude is much more than merely saying "thank you." It is a mindset and an attitude that fosters happiness, contentment, and overall well-being. When we focus on what we are grateful for instead of dwelling on what we lack, our perspective shifts, allowing us to see opportunities and possibilities previously overlooked.
Practicing gratitude regularly has been scientifically proven to reduce stress levels, improve mental health, enhance relationships, and even boost physical health. By acknowledging the good in our lives - big or small - we create a ripple effect that positively impacts not only ourselves but also those around us.
2. The Art of Appreciation:
Appreciation goes hand in hand with gratitude; it involves recognizing the value and worth of people, experiences, nature's beauty, and everything else that enriches our lives. Taking a moment each day to appreciate the little things can lead to profound joy amidst life's challenges.
Expressing appreciation towards others strengthens relationships by fostering trust and connection. Whether it's a heartfelt compliment or a thoughtful gesture showing someone how much they mean to us, these acts of appreciation can make a significant difference in their lives too.
3. Counting Our Blessings:
Counting our blessings means consciously acknowledging all the positive aspects of our lives – from material possessions to cherished memories and personal achievements. While challenges may arise along life's journey, focusing on what brings us joy and fulfillment can help us navigate through difficult times with resilience.
Keeping a gratitude journal or reflecting on our blessings at the end of each day allows us to cultivate an attitude of abundance. It reminds us that even amidst hardships, there is always something to be grateful for. By shifting our focus from what we lack to what we already have, we create space for more blessings to enter our lives.
Gratitude, appreciation, and counting our blessings are powerful practices that can transform our lives in remarkable ways. Embracing these attitudes not only enhances our own well-being but also cultivates positive energy within our communities and beyond.
Let's make a conscious effort to express gratitude regularly, appreciate the people around us, and count our blessings every day. As we open ourselves up to a mindset of gratitude and appreciation, we'll find that life becomes richer, more meaningful, and filled with countless reasons to be thankful.
Remember: Gratitude is the key that unlocks the door to a truly fulfilled life. Start today and reap the rewards tomorrow!
Harnessing the Power of Today's Solar Eclipse and New Moon

October 14, 2023
Today marks an extraordinary celestial event—a conjunction of a solar eclipse and a new moon, captivating sky gazers worldwide. As the moon passes between Earth and the sun, momentarily obscuring its radiant glow, we find ourselves in awe of nature’s grandeur. But beyond its visual spectacle, a solar eclipse holds profound significance for our spiritual and personal growth. In this blog post, we will explore what a solar eclipse entails and discuss ways to harness its power.
Understanding a Solar Eclipse:
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon aligns perfectly with the sun, casting a shadow on Earth. During this alignment, the sun's light is blocked either partially or completely for observers in specific regions. A total solar eclipse is exceptional, enveloping viewers in near darkness as the moon covers the entire sun.
Harnessing the Power:
While experiencing a solar eclipse can be awe-inspiring by itself, many cultures believe that these celestial events possess transformative energies capable of enhancing our lives. Here are some ways you can harness this potent energy to enrich your spiritual journey:
1. Self-Reflection and Introspection:
Solar eclipses symbolize fresh beginnings—times of immense possibilities and transformation. Utilize this moment to reflect upon your life journey, goals, and aspirations. Embrace introspection to unearth hidden talents or areas requiring growth and improvement.
2. Setting Intentions:
During this powerful cosmic alignment, set clear intentions for manifesting positive changes in your life. Write down your desires, dreams, or goals that align with your authentic self. Focus on clarity while envisioning their realization.
3. Meditation and Mindfulness:
Engage in deep meditation during the peak moments of the eclipse to cultivate mindfulness and connect with universal energies. Visualize yourself absorbing the empowering energy emitted by the celestial convergence—the unity of sun and moon—and allow it to permeate every aspect of your being.
4. Cleansing and Letting Go:
Eclipses also signify a time for shedding old patterns, beliefs, or habits that hinder personal growth. Perform rituals like burning incense, smudging, or creating an intention-infused bath to cleanse your mind, body, and spirit. Embrace the opportunity to release negativity and make space for positive transformation.
5. Rituals and Ceremony:
Engaging in rituals during eclipses can be deeply meaningful. Light candles, create altars adorned with crystals or other sacred objects, and imbue them with intentions that resonate with you personally. Allow these rituals to deepen your connection with the celestial energies present during this extraordinary event.
Today's solar eclipse and new moon offer us an exceptional chance to harness the transformative power of cosmic alignment. As we witness nature's awe-inspiring spectacle, let us not only marvel at its beauty but also seize this opportunity for self-reflection, setting intentions, and embracing positive change within our lives. By immersing ourselves in meditation, mindfulness practices, cleansing rituals, and ceremonies tailored to our spiritual preferences, we invite the profound energy of the eclipse to enhance our journey towards self-discovery and fulfillment. Embrace this unique occasion as a catalyst for personal growth—allow yourself to be transformed by the magic of today's solar eclipse and new moon!
