Insurmountable Opportunities

Seed: Insurmountable Opportunities

Walt Kelly (August 25, 1913 – October 18, 1973) was an American animator and cartoonist, best known for the classic comic strip, Pogo of “We have the met the enemy and it are us” fame. That’s true, and so is this quote of his.

“We are confronted with insurmountable opportunities.”

I love the oxymoron implied in these words, and the lesson they imply. Opportunities, dear one, abound, ay, but there’s the rub. Do we take them as opportunities? Or do we, instead, opt for problems, difficulties, even, in New Age-speak, challenges. Opportunity arises only as we see it as such.

Opportunity means we get an appropriate chance to change something we want to change. The trick is, in the midst of the ‘problem,’ to a/ figure out it is an opportunity and b/ figure out what within said opportunity we are getting the chance to change. The secret to the process is to slow things down—waaaay down.

So the next time insurmountable opportunities confront you, slow down. Figure out what you want to change, and change it.

Be magical,

Apprentices

In fact, apprentices galore.

So, dear reader, did you know I take apprentices? And what, exactly, does that mean?

I thought I’d put it in writing.

First, I don’t take apprentice classes. I take individual apprentices. There isn’t a particular curriculum that I put apprentices through. It’s customized for each one.

Here are some of the menu options:

You can learn …

Tarot

Astrology

Numerology

World Scriptures

Metaphysics (with privilege of ordination and doctoral conference)

Medical Intuition

Hands-on Healing (Reiki)

Shamanic journeying

Past Life Regression

Soul Retrieval

or any other mystical thing your heart desires.

I put together a program individualized to each student.

The process is usually a year and a day—the standard length of a witch’s training program. Sometimes it lasts longer; sometimes less. It all depends upon you.

At this moment, I have seven.

If you belong on this roster, shoot me an email or give a ring.

Apprentices are fun.

Today is the Day

No, really, It is. Or, it is if you think it is, and that’s the only thought about it that matters.

Whatever you’ve been waiting for, do something toward it today.

Today is the Day

By Dani Sutliff

Observations from the Queendom:

“The world will not fall apart if we step into our grace and express our vastness. It is more likely the world will stop falling apart when we do.”

- Geneen Roth

What if I told you today was the day?

The day to step into your grace and express your vastness?  The day to make a commitment to live YOU in all your bodalicious uniqueness.

Today.

Starting now.

The day to quit hiding and/or pretending you are anything less than the magnificent creature you are; to sit at your own knee and hang on your every word; to be totally and fully intrigued by your mystery and enthralled with your wisdom; to delight in your deliciousness, and to marvel at how well life looks on you; the day to giggle with coquettish glee at all that makes you divinely, curvaceously, abundantly, woman; the day to laugh loudly at your own jokes; to quote yourself and to be inspired by the vast and unlimited potential of your inherent creativity and passion.

What if I told you today was the day?

Today.

The day to follow where your heart leads, to say yes to yourself, to grab the brass ring with both hands and hold on tight; to give away a little less and hold on to a little more; to do what you want to do and not do what you don’t want to do.

The day to park yourself smack dab in the middle of YOU and savor every single second of every single bit of you.

What if I told you today was that day and that no one else can tell of your fire, paint with your words, or sing with your voice like you in the middle of you?

That the world needs you to express you.

That I need you to express you.

Right now.

Today.

Would you believe me?

Would you do it?
