Time and space have been transformed into sacraments.
God has woven human and divine into the time of God: infinity.
We have an opportunity to be led into the life of Christ.
Out of the shadows of infamy into God’s transformation of the altar of these mysteries, there is no rock like our God.

Say : I’m sorry and admit your failure.
Then increase your soul’s vibration.
Experience forgiveness.

from Maria Loren

Dear Maryann:
I was thinking of you this am when making my oatmeal and looking at the painting which is a collage of your and my color pencil painting of fruits (hung in the kitchen). I believe the bananas are yours!
I think I’m sending you a laurel wreath this Christmas for you to wear to show your impending sainthood. Your long life has been blessed with so many sufferings; I wonder how much more purifying you need. Your mom lived a long life of fidelity too. Your daughter was sacrificed. Yours is a holy family. I am Virginia of Christ and you are Maryann of Christ, two sisters of wisdom still walking in poverty chastity and obedience.

Together we look to our destiny of the rest of our transformation from the love of power to the power of love; from the survival of self to the kindness to all. We are one in faith, hope and love! Deus Solis!

Love, Jeanne

Dear Jeanne,

Thank you for  your latest card.  I was mesmerized by the watercolor landscape in this card.  It got me thinking about maybe getting my watercolors out again and start painting but i can’t quite fit it in my schedule, right now.
Please keep me in your prayers.  After the hellish five years that I just went through, my body has finally rebelled.  The stress from Amy’s death, Bob’s sickness and death, custody of my grandchildren during the worse times of their young lives and the death of my brother who had been a boon in helping me with the children, my mammogram two weeks ago showed cancer again after 24 years of being cancer free from breast cancer.  It is not as serious as it could be but we are talking surgery and some follow up treatment but not chemo.  Just got the results of the biopsy today and still trying to reconcile myself to these new events.
Happy thanksgiving.

Love
Maryann

Believe in yourself, and have faith that God and the angels are with you. Ask them to help you lose the fears that block you from enjoying full faith.
The angels bring you a message today about trust, as they know you’ve had experiences in the past which may have caused you to doubt and lose faith in life. The angels however wish to bring you the message to keep the faith and to hold on to it, and this also includes self-trust too.
You may have made mistakes in the past, but these mistakes have served as spiritual growth lessons and have also brought you wisdom and knowledge about life. The angels will work with you today to help you have trust in yourself and in them, talk with them regularly throughout the day so they can support you with this, and this will also open you up to the signs that the angels bring around you today.
Sometimes we all need a little wisdom, reflect on the wisdom you’ve learnt throughout your life and pick one piece of advise that you feel could help someone. When you get the opportunity spend some extra time talking to a child or an adult in need of help and give them the piece of advise that you have learnt. You will find that the angels will create the right situation for this to happen, and this will come as an important message for the recipient.

Speak your mind with confidence, as you can create profound and wonderful change
The angels come with a message for you about how important it is to be yourself and to express your soul in a positive and powerful way. Your pathway may not have been easy to get to where you are today, but the lessons you’ve learnt have built up the strength and knowledge you need to now take the next step forward in your life and create wonderful change in your life and the life of others.
Through expressing your gifts, knowledge and talents you play your part in making the world a better and more peaceful place. You now have what you need to embark on the journey ahead, have faith and know that your angels are right by your side, supporting you and guiding you.

Today take action on one thing that can move you forwards into expressing your true and authentic self! This could be singing a song, playing a musical instrument, painting a picture, sharing your gifts and talents, giving someone advice, buying a pack of angel cards, wearing colourful clothes or writing a list of what you would like to achieve over the next 5 years.

Your tarot card for today is the High Priestess. It suggests that you’re learning through osmosis.
Your inner knowledge is brought to light by today’s tarot card, The High Priestess. She is the second card in the Major Arcana. The High Priestess knows the unknown truths about your life and indicates that you do as well. They are just hidden in your unconscious mind.
The archetype of The High Priestess is none other than the mysterious, divine feminine. She brings spiritual messages and wants to help you connect with your intuition and discover your unknown truths. The High Priestess wants you to know that you will understand everything you need to through osmosis.

The High Priestess represents your unconscious awareness. She wants you to go deeper within yourself. Take a closer look inside of yourself and trust your intuition to act as your guide. You will then see that you have the answers to all of your questions and realize there is no reason for you to have doubts or concerns.
As The High Priestess helps guide you towards your inner self and helps connect you to your intuition, you will gain hidden knowledge through osmosis. Osmosis is defined by the absorption of thoughts and ideas unconsciously.
You won’t realize you’ve gone through osmosis until it’s already happened. However, once you do, you will be able to tap into that newfound wisdom to gain a proper understanding of what you need to know.

How will you know when you’ve experienced osmosis?
The High Priestess represents the divine feminine found within. She is connected to your higher self and is here to act as your guide. The High Priestess wants you to try to communicate with your higher self, so she can help you learn how to trust yourself and your intuition to show you the answers you seek.
Following the guidance of The High Priestess to connect with your higher self will help you reach new levels of enlightenment. You will then realize that you’ve unconsciously learned the answers to your questions through osmosis.

What can you do to better connect with your higher self?
Here are some ways you can find and strengthen that connection with your higher self to unlock your inner wisdom and discover your unknown truths.
Gain self-awareness through meditation and mindfulness. When everything is moving fast, it’s hard to notice your surroundings, let alone evaluate critical situations or information. Meditation is a fantastic way to slow everything down, even if it’s just for a couple of minutes.
If you feel like you don’t have time to meditate, you should know that you only need to take 10 minutes out of your day to do it.

Mindfulness is a form of meditation. It involves becoming hyper-aware of your thoughts and feelings. You completely slow down everything around yourself and focus on each sensation you feel. Concentrating on your breathing is also an essential part of achieving mindfulness. Doing so can help you connect with your higher self.
Write down affirmations to help better connect with your higher self. Using affirmations is a fantastic way to help manifest your goals in connecting with your higher self and gain access to your inner wisdom. Affirmations are statements you make for yourself to help bring positive changes to your life and the way you think.

Start by writing down your desired affirmation on a piece of paper. Put that piece of paper in your pocket, wallet, or purse, so you’re able to carry it around with you. Throughout the day, take a couple minutes to chant and really focus your energy on your affirmation. Feel it and believe.
Doing so can help put you in a more positive state of mind, making it easier to connect with your higher self.

I beseech thee, O Yellow Pages…
by Barbara Hamby

I beseech thee, O Yellow Pages, help me find a number
for Barbara Stanwyck, because I need a tough broad
in my corner right now. She’ll pour me a tumbler
of scotch or gin and tell me to buck up, show me the rod
she has hidden in her lingerie drawer. She has a temper,
yeah, but her laugh could take the wax off a cherry red
Chevy. “Shoot him,” she’ll say merrily, then scamper
off to screw an insurance company out of another wad
of dough. I’ll be left holding the phone or worse, patsy
in another scheme, arrested by Edward G. Robinson
and sent to Sing Sing, while Barb lives like Gatsby
in Thailand or Tahiti, gambling the night away until the sun
rises in the east, because there are some things a girl can be sure
of, like the morning coming after night’s inconsolable lure.

In Turkey:

Are there hidden tunnels

underneath

from one house to the other?

Would you like to prowl your neighbor’s privacy?

Hold it in your teeth?

Squares bring conflict, tension, and challenges  to the surfaces so we can process them and move through them.
Uranus is all about freedom, expansion, individuality, and sudden changes that affect all of humanity.
This series of squares has been challenging your outdated systems and structures that no longer are aligned with your individual energy, Jeanne DeLoca, or the energy of humanity as a whole.
This is purposeful so that you can let go of everything that no longer serves you on the new path you will be forging in 2022 during the Year of the Water-Tiger.
You have likely felt all year that you have been shedding parts of yourself that no longer fit the life you want to live.
And the window between now and the final square on December 24 is the perfect time for you to dive deep and prepare yourself for the huge shift from metal to water energy, Jeanne DeLoca.
It is the perfect time to uncover, truly see, and process truths you have been hiding from yourself and to absorb all of the vast information that has been hidden from humanity as a collective.
This final square will help you remove the biggest obstacles that are still blocking the bright new abundant future that is waiting for you in 2022.
And Uranus will help you develop your intuitive and psychic gifts, expand your consciousness and your heart chakra, and far more easily connect with the energy of the collective as a whole.
It is a time for the revelation of both personal and collective truths and the exposure of any type of self-deception, hidden agendas, and lies on a global level.
By utilizing the final energy of the Metal Ox Year and the last of the Saturn – Uranus squares, you will be able to let go of the remaining restrictions in your life that are holding you back with your finances, your home situation, your career, or health issues.

The Verge
by Annie Lighthart

Reason is a fine thing, but remember there are other ways
to live: by instinct or passion, or even,
maybe, by revelation. Try it. Come around again to the verge –
that place of about-to-open, near where we comprehend
and laugh and see. Why shouldn’t something marvelous
happen to you? Take even an occasion like this:
A man reading at night looked up at the window to find
a moose looking in, interested and unafraid
with quiet dark eyes. He reports he has never been the same;
he finds the ungainly and miraculous everywhere.
He said it started the next night in the empty window
as he watched his reflection looking right back through.
He said he saw his own beauty, how even in his same old face
the quiet eyes were curious and ready to be true.
