WhollyMetaphysical Newsletter
What’s in this newsletter: - After my intro, we have the inspirational quote for the month, a card reading – miracles, The World Drum Project, members’ special offer and a short piece – What if it was you? plus bits & pieces of interesting information and news.
Hello, last month I was talking about time, with its apparent speeding up and of course for many of us, our evident lack of it. Life really does seem to be getting busier. It is definitely getting more interesting! There is so much going on, but have we taken the time to notice what is important and what really adds value to our lives.
In our rush for ‘the good life’ have we taken a moment to consider our Mother Earth, our place upon her and our continuing time together?
The issue of the world’s environmental plight is too vast for any one of us to deal with individually. Even our governments seem stymied. Yet, if each of us does our bit, that is look after our own backyard, and move some of our consciousness towards the matter, then bit by bit we can make a difference!
The World Drum is journeying around the world on its mission for peace and the environment and the survival of humanity. We are fortunate that it is stopping off during its spiritual journey through Australia at our place “Akasha Keep” in Queensland. Here we will participate in the worldwide chain of ceremonies, and two of these will be held on the 12th November, one at 2pm and another at 7pm. If you can join us, we would love to see you here. Unfortunately booking will be essential. So to book or find out a little more information, please contact us.
Read all about The World Drum in the article below.

Inspirational quote for the month:
The miracles of nature do not seem miracles because they are so common. If no one had ever seen a flower, even a dandelion would be the most startling event in the world.
Author unknown
Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.
C.S.Lewis
I couldn’t make up my mind, so we have two. (Ron)

Card reading:
For a great many years now I have been inspired by Denise Linn. I have found her to be practical and down to earth whilst being inspiring, so when I spotted her Soul Coaching Oracle set in my bookshelf I knew it was the set to use this month, to add to our wisdom and monthly guidance.
A card wasn’t actually selected, for as I picked up the accompanying guidebook it opened with my finger inside at the page for Miracles.
Card meaning: Miracles occur in your life every day. Watch for and embrace them. As you notice and accept the small wonders in your life, greater gifts will grow in abundance all around you.
Your soul wants you to know: Expect miracles. Praise and celebrate them when they appear, no matter how small. Be open to allowing the Creator to solve challenges for you in mysterious and wondrous ways. Trust that everything is unfolding graciously and perfectly in your life, and let go of fear and doubt! Don’t limit the way that miracles can appear in your life by having expectations. Be open for them to appear from sources beyond your imagination.
Affirmation: My life is a miracle.

The World Drum Project is all about uniting the world in a call to save our environments and ultimately to save ourselves. Founded in a shamanic view of life, the aim is to bring attention to the critical situation for Mother Earth – The web of life is coming undone and will bring catastrophic consequences.
Starting from Whitecougar’s vision and participation between several people, The World Drum has been created by Birger Mikkelsen, the Sami medicine man and drum maker, and sent on a spiritual journey to participate in worldwide ceremonies. And two of these will be held at Akasha Keep, Lowood, Qld on the 12th November: One at 2pm and another at 7pm.
The aim is that through ceremony and participation, people may awaken to the plight of Mother Earth and humanity, and wake from their lethargy and indifference.

What if it was you?
This story has been around for a long time I’m sure. Events the other day brought it back to my attention, and it was this that prompted me to share it as a reminder to us all. I was sitting watching as the human parade went by and noticed most people had glum faces. I started to smile as people passed by, and this seemed to spark a light of life in most. While I was doing this I still managed to stay with my thoughts and the matters I was contemplating. Amongst them was the reminder of this story.
A young man was at his wits end; he had lost his job, smashed his car, the bank was about to repossess his house and his wife had just left with their young child. As far as he was concerned, life had gone sour and was no longer of worth struggling with. As his gloom and desperation grew, he decided to end it all.
He was making his way to a well known suicide spot, determined to end his misery and his life. As he was making his way he was replaying events in his life in his mind. Among these were a few of the more positive and life enhancing kind.
What if he thought, what if there is more to this than just my current state of affairs? Is there a chance my lot could improve? Is there a chance I can start over and make something of this life?
I know what, he thought, as I make my way towards my jump, if just one person nods or smiles at me, I won’t jump and I‘ll give life another go! But if I don’t encounter a person who smiles or greets me in a friendly way I’ll jump.
What if it was you he met?

Bits and Pieces.
Another thought on time. We appear to be talking a lot about time. The introduction into the last newsletters has been about time, talk of end times and ends of cycles and calendars. In a heart to heart with a client it became apparent that she was keeping herself extremely busy and short of time so that she didn’t have any time to think. In this way she could keep herself insulated and safe, or so she thought.
In her case she was very unsure about what the future may bring. So if she kept her head buried in the sand by being so busy, she wouldn’t have to confront her fears. But here’s the thing – by taking back some time and discussing and learning more about the future issues she was hiding from, her life took on a more positive and balanced view.
She no longer needs to be so busy and to hide. She can live more in the now and enjoy the day to day unfolding of her life.
This is the thing we are all here to do. To move more and more into the fullest expression of who we are with love and joy in our heart. To live our life and to live it well. And of course the only place or time we can do this is NOW, not yesterday and not tomorrow.
My question for you is – where is your attention and where do you spend your time?
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Thank you for all the feedback we have had about the newsletters and the video posting about 2012. Many of you found this enlightening and informative. If you haven’t had a look yet, may we encourage you to do so.
Also, a few newsletters ago we asked for suggestions for a name for the newsletter. This has not been forgotten, we just haven’t come up with the right one yet. So if you have a contribution to make, please do so.

Health, Happiness, Love, Success and Prosperity.
