The Romance Of The Drive In At Home

Drive in movie theaters might be a thing of the past.  The romance of sitting outside snuggled up with your sweetheart in your car, just isn't as popular as it once was.  However, modern technology allows us to do this in a much different way today.  Today the two of you can take your iPad, download a movie from iTunes and then snuggle up on your deck and spend the night outside watching a movie and being snuggled up.  Times and Technology might change, but romance will always be around.

Talk w/Your Body (Ways We Communicate w/Lover 2 of 8)

Touch, lean into, and smile....

Part 2 of 8

           Body Language – Paying attention to our partners’ body language can tell us if he/she is interested in what we have to say, if he/she is bored, if he/she is angry and so on.  Some obvious signs include when our partner folds his/her arms, turns away from us, does the eye roll, draws a long breath, etc.  More positive body language may include leaning into us, making eye contact, nodding the head.  When we pay attention to our partners’ body language and even our own when listening to our partner we can discover a lot more about our level of communication.

Speaking Kind Words

The Magic of Water

We often talk about using water in different ceremonies; therefore, we are sharing the following article for some more info :) 

The Magic of Water

By Lillie Ruby

Water has been a place of magic for centuries. It is the place where folklore speaks of fantastic creatures and beings. There are Water Sprites and Mermaids, Spirits of Pools and Waterfalls, even River Gods. Sacred springs were the homes of Goddesses while the oceans were populated by a powerful deity carrying a trident whose anger stirred up storms, tidal waves and sank ships. Zeus and Thor were renowned and revered for their thunder, lightning and rain. Even Jesus created magic by parting and walking on water. Water has always been seen as containing much more than minnows and sharks.

Bards and grandmothers alike spoke of rivers that took boaters into the Faerie Realm or rain puddles that offered windows into faery homes and other worlds. Ships crews were warned through legends that they might actually fall off the earth-an obvious reference to the faery legends.

Even today, religions have created a traditional image of crossing the river when a person dies. This too is based on legends of the past- of trips down rivers to the Underworld, ofCrossing the River Styx. Here, again, a person travels into another realm, be it the Underworld, or Heaven. Even the ritual bathing of the dead uses water to clear the soul of lower level vibrations and help it move to other realms.

While we know ancient burial sites often contained vessels that apparently held seeds and water. It's possible they were more symbolic than practical. Archeologists claim that burial jars were to feed the dead on the other side. Instead, perhaps they were symbols of reincarnation-the seeds of new life and water to help the soul recreate itself in human form; the magic of life renewal.

Celtic Goddesses Danu, Cerridwen and Morgan Le Fey were not only associated with intuition, magic, prophecy, faeries, healing and magic, but each had symbols associated with water. Danu was associated with all symbols of water; Cerridwen with the cauldron, a vessel where things were created by magic and Morgan Le Fey by a hand extending a sword out of the water. The Ace of Swords in Tarot is reminiscent of Morgan's symbol and it too represents creation.

Water has always been considered the creative element of life-the magic of life. Babies are born with a gush of water and religions use water for rebirth-a ritual form of magic. Folklore from around the world tells of life springing forth from primordial waters. Crops are born of water as are the finned creatures we eat.

The power of water to conduct energy was known long before we learned not to stand in a pool of water and plug in the fan. Seers of the past knew it could increase the power of spiritual energy and help channel wisdom and spiritual insights. That is one of the major reasons they used water in different ways to divine and to be connected to the Divine. It is also the reason natural ponds, springs and pools were considered open doorways and windows into other realms- magical places to be utilized to connect to the Divine and to create.

Water amplifies psychic abilities. It helps move the mind into altered states of consciousness where the creative mind then begins the creative process and manifests our desires. Scientists may believe water to be hydrogen and oxygen (H2O), but to the Seers of old, it was High Octane for creating magic.

Don't YELL At Me (Ways We Communicate w/Lover - 1 of 8)

(Above = Ummm....probably not the best way to communicate!)

Part 1 of 8

There are numerous ways we can communicate with our partners.  You may not have considered some of the ones we will share over the next few weeks.  We do not all communicate the same; therefore we should not expect our partner to communicate in a specific way.  We need to learn how he/she communicates best and work with that.  At the same time, it is important for both partners to make an effort to meet in the middle.  Communication and adjusting our way of communicating should not be one-sided.  It takes both of us wanting to communicate to truly re-open and/or keep those lines open. 

Below I am going to touch briefly on eight different types of communication.  Consider how many of these you incorporate into your relationship.  If they aren’t there, could you pay more attention to them and increase them?  Changing just one aspect of your relationship ultimately changes the entire relationship.  This means that one by one you can transform your relationship.  All communication can build trust and a deeper bond in your relationship, but I believe that a good combination of the different types is very important for both of you and for your relationship as a whole. 

 Talking – Talking is the most obvious way we communicate with each other and perhaps, may be the only way some consider when discussing communication.  Yet, there are far more ways that we communicate with each other than just talking.  Talking is not easy for everyone to do and we need to take that into account when considering how best to communicate with our partners.  Does your partner interrupt you when you are talking?  Do you change the subject and cut-off your partner?  Do you feel that your partner really listens when you talk?  Another factor to take into consideration is that the meaning of words can vary even for two people who are very close.
