2014- Best clearing finds: Peruvian Florida water & hydrogen peroxide

Peruvian Florida water: Simply the best. Much more pure than what is sold at the bodegas here. Thanks to a visiting shaman, I discovered it and bought it through shamansmarket.com

I diluted it in a spray bottle with water, and sprayed an entire carpet with it. The cats now smell like it. Bonus!

Hydrogen Peroxide- store bought 3%.. Clears and makes things shine. It restores things to their natural glow. After literally clearing so many things from stones to metal, I researched hydorgen peroxide uses and read everything I’ve found. I’ve since bought food grade and am using it. It’s an amazing curative. This is something you must educate yourself about. I will be sure to write about my findings after I’ve used it for 3 months.

So it’s been a little more than 3 months (it’s january 4th 2015), and I have been using the food grade hydrogen peroxide. I start with food grade 35% hydrogen peroxide and dilute it with distilled water until it’s a 3% solution. 35% would burn your skin. 90% hydrogen peroxide is rocket fuel! You can’t fuck around with this stuff, or use it casually. Basically it’s oxygen therapy. This is folk medicine at its finest. It’s too involved for me to expound upon. I do use it daily, in many different ways. If you are interested I can lead you to how to find more information for yourself.

Both of these products rate on top with Thieves essential oil blend. All a must in my toolbox.

2014 best home finds: Cleansing with oil

Have you heard of it?

Cleansing oil with oil. Leaves the face feeling amazing and balanced.  No matter what skin type, you can achieve balance by using oil.

Castor oil is a part of each regime, and the carrier oil differs with skin type. I use  1/3 Castor Oil to 2/3 Jojoba oil. There are many websites that have different oil combinations. You take the oil and rub it in using upward strokes. Let it set a few, then I use a beauty cotton pad which I drench in very warm water to gently press and wipe my face.  I do this before going to bed. Voila!

Putting two things together that don’t go: Conflict

Hello Hello Hello

I had an epiphany, an aha. I was troubled and I looked at it. I saw that I was rushing, and I caught it. What was I really in a hurry for? The thought was, “I didn’t make enough money tonight to stay this long and close up.”  Ahh. Well that may be valid in valuing my time, but not my energy. Then I thought if I had made money would I still be rushing. Likely. I see that we put things together, justify and defend things in this way. Make something mean something. It’s a trap. So, I wanted to be done, but it’s up to me to have quantitative moments. That’s like saying, now it sucks, but it will be better. There’s no better out there. The better can only be now. There’s no tomorrow, if right now I can’t be right now. Tomorrow will be a log jam from here. Conflict.

I’m declaring,  ” I will not be manipulated to make something mean something!” Everyone’s personal insanity. Dig in deeply enough and you can find what you’ve put together that gives you strife.

It’s Tower time

One of my favorite stories of all time.  The champion, Seabiscuit, who finally found his stride. It took an unlikely team of misfits who came together and understood this amazing horse with the big heart.

Have you seen a race horse at the starting gate who’s being held up? Have you seen how crazy they get? Do you ever feel like that? What’s the hold up? Where what you really want to do is fly! Together we are going to identify this. It’s time to let go.

I agree with a Zen way to get anywhere. Be simple, focused, and direct. The way of the profound is simplicity.

There is a call on Monday May 19th, at 7 p.m where letting go is the topic.

So, instead of going through a lot of hoops, the focus on this whole year is the Tower,  of letting go. Turning away, literally ignoring what doesn’t work. Pleading indifference to that which has been a struggle. Actually being uninterested in anything and everything that sucks energy away from what we are, what we want, and what will serve.

That’s the focus. Next is the Star, with a multitude of beatific showers of esteem, power, and love. It’s the abundance of a river with a clear direction and a velocity from the high.

The Tower

A personal tower story:
Snake oil. For me snake oil, is selling a promise, not an actual thing.
I, Andrea Rich solemly swear that I will not entrust my resources to any promises. Just because they worked for someone else doesn’t mean they will work for me, and my experience has been they never have. What has worked for me: buying a house, selling a house. Creating a product, selling a product. Someone believing in me and investing in me with clear and absolute understandable terms.

There is a business coach out there, Ramit Sethi who I’ve followed for awhile. He used to never sell to anyone who was having a problem paying their credit cards. Then a business coaching system came along that had such an amazing sell, that I chose it over Ramit.  I said yes, to their lofty promise. “you will be making 10,000 by July, I guarantee it.” It really wasn’t the right fit for me. I truly wanted a one on one business coach, yet signed onto the program, which included a little one on one. When I didn’t become a star pupil the business coach who I had worked with for a year showed little interest in talking to me beyond just wanting to sign me up for another year. They had their money.  Hard, expensive lesson for me. I am starting to get it. It’s freeing. I still follow Ramit on-line. He’s one of the few I’ve kept in my inbox. How funny. If only I had listened to Lulu, as she was hot on Ramit, and I was hot on the other. Whoa.

This is precisely why everyone has to find their own way. Know what you are looking for. This is also why I never make any promises. I am an educator in self reliance.

What’s happening????

I was fortunate to be in Florida for both passover and the eclipse on Monday the 14th.  After a wonderful weekend with my friend celebrating with the many people that flew in for her 70th birthday, we topped it off with passover at her daughters, then stayed up and watched the eclipse. What a great time. Now I’m back home, and this grand cross is scheduled for Tuesday. It’s going to be in the skies for about 6 months, and we all need to stay very present. It’s a potent time. There is a lot of information circulating about this event.

What I am sensing is this: whatever needs to come to the surface to be cleared will. Who will you be? Attached? That will be a problem. Take health for example. The linear way of fixing one thing after another, and giving over any power to another to be a part of this equation may not give results. The inner knowing inside every individual is being called to action now. Poor health is often the result of being attached to something that doesn’t serve. If we can observe whatever it is that we hold onto, this will give insight to what we are wanting to let go of in a very deep way. If we hold on we will be supremely challenged. So, that’s a practical perspective to look at if there is a sense of struggle. As simple and as difficult as this may be, it’s like the tower in the tarot. Letting go!

We need to really understand our own selves and get off the other. The focus is as always on ourselves. Take as much time as necessary in your cave, and emerge like a butterfly. Our filter is getting a tune-up. This very filter projects our movie onto the screen. This screen is is our contribution to life. It’s a great time to put the focus on the creation of new perspectives with a complete dedication to that, and settle for nothing less.
