Wow, that was quite a storm last night in Southern California. For a minute I wondered if I was perhaps in Kansas with those insane winds?!
No matter how crazy the weather, I love how the Earth smells after the rains. As our energy is cleansed after a bath or shower, it's like the Earth has had a beautiful cleanse overnight.
Everything smells fresh and new this morning, and I feel an exciting energy in the air. I know the animals feel it too!
Today on my morning walk, I saw a squirrel balancing on a pole soaking up the sunlight.
Then I saw a fluffy rabbit, who followed me as I bounded along the boardwalk path.
A hummingbird flew straight up above me until he was just a tiny spec. He hovered for a few seconds and then flew straight down towards me, dipping right in front of my face. He flew so fast, that I only caught sight of his bright pink chest. I asked an elderly gentlemen who was walking by at the time if he saw it too, and as if on cue, the hummingbird did it again. We both grinned, it was absolutely delightlful!
Further down the boardwalk, I noticed how muddy the waves looked today. There were no surfers in sight, so when I saw a large black object inside a wave, I took a closer look.
It was a massive dolphin surfing the waves. It even jumped playfully over a few waves, I was in awe and smiling with glee. Of course, I didn't get a photo or video of that, (it's kind of dolphin code, that the minute you get your camera ready they disappear from sight).
Some of you may have noticed that planetary energies have been pretty intense for the past week or so. If you're highly sensitive as I am, you'll have been feeling the full effects. With full moon coming up in a few days, energies are becoming even more powerful.
Getting outdoors into the sunshine and nature helps me to stay on top of my game. You too can decide today that YOU control how you feel from here on out. Always remember that you are not your thoughts, let them come and go, but don't let them dictate your mood.
If you feel overwhelmed, then splash some water on your face and go into nature for a little while. You never know what amazing things the universe has up it's sleeve, and you won't find out unless you go outside, tune in and see for yourself!
I know, that each and every time that I make the effort to get outdoors, nature rewards me with something miraculous! I already can't wait to see what tomorrow's walk will bring.
I wish you all a wonderful week ahead, I'd love to hear how nature has delighted you lately.
Much love to you ALL!
