Tickles and Sparkles #10

January 15, 2008

Greetings from Julie at Tickles and Sparkles,

I am so excited about this edition of Staying on Track by Staying Positive. WHY? Well once again, Mercury goes retrograde on January 28, 2008 and ends on February 18, 2008.

Now I know I usually tell about all the things that can happen during this three week period that affect us all in somewhat negative ways. This time I would like to take a look at all the things we can do this time to make life better while Mercury Retrograde is taking place. Many people seem to think this is the worst time ever but by preparing for it and making time to do the things we need to get done like finishing projects we have started earlier we will feel better and better about this time. So start making a list of what you need to do during the Retrograde.

Some examples of what to do:

· Clean up your office

· Back up that computer (I recommend doing this before the retrograde)

· Clean out your closet and give away what you really do not wear any more.

· What about the leftovers from the Holidays hiding in the back of your refrigerator.

· Finish up that project you started last year.

· Call all those people who are still waiting for you to return their messages. (clear off your phone recorder)

· Detail your car a good wash and wax will make you feel so good when you drive down the street. Tell your car how thankful you are that it is running perfectly. (I talk to my car and it even has a name)

· Wash your windows.

· Clean outdated things from your kitchen cabinets. 2005 is really outdated!

· Shred those old papers that are cluttering up your home.

I am sure you can think of many things you can do to clear out old energy from your home and life. If there are people in your life that you no longer desire to associate with, why not write them a letter and then do not send it but burn it to let them go. Sometimes it is better for us to let go without saying anything to hurt someone’s feelings. While you are writing that letter write another letting go of all judgment of others and burn it to!

As always do not sign any contracts or legal documents during this time if you can avoid it please do so. Do not buy any electronics during this time as break downs are possible very possible. Buy them after the retrograde please! Same goes for cars, boats and what ever.

Love

Last week I wrote about sending out love and saying the word love through out your day. I would love to know how it is working for you.

I received an email from one of my readers which was quite wonderful here it is:

Julie,
You sure know how to hit home runs!

For the past 2 days, I was feeling tired and kept having fearful dreams.

I was worried and had no energy, then... today

I heard someone say on TV, "Love can be the greatest, and also the most painful."

It reminded me of your newsletter.

So I though about it like this...
Love is an emotion;

Love drives us to do crazy things sometimes.
Love can't be forced by commitment.

You can't make someone Love you,
You can gift Love from your heart,
Love can be transferred with only a smile,
Some people think money can by Love,
Sometimes Love can cost you everything.
It is difficult to let love go.
For me... real Love is my puppy.

Cathy

Thank you, Cathy for sending me this wonderful email.

Love is what you create it to be.

It is an emotion that is limitless if we chose to believe in it.

I believe in Love and the powerful ways we can use this wonderful emotion, feeling and word to make life better, better, and better for ourselves and others.

Remember that Love starts with you if you give it out it will come back in many wonderful unexpected ways.

But if you hold love in you may never have the experience of receiving for you are a vessel and when you are filled with love and do not give it out then there is no room for more to come in and soon your vessel will dry up and become empty. Give out love and it shows up in miraculous ways filling your vessel daily.

Affirmation of the week:

As I give out love to all people I encounter each day.

I now feel the joy of my expression of love towards others.

It is filling my heart, soul and mind with joyful thoughts and feelings that are love’s Divine gifts to me.
