For someone so sure she’s made for joy, I’ve certainly been in a rotten mood lately. I can’t seem to shake a mood of agitation, frustration, and downright anger, ever since Sarah Palin came on the scene a few weeks ago. I keep chiding myself for being so reactive, so activated by something as petty as politics, but thanks to this article, I feel much better. If you’re interested in some of my thoughts about Palin, check out my other blog here.
Which leads me to the next thing I know for sure: I am some kind of tuning fork for some kind of vibe.
Whether it’s cosmic reality, the unseen spiritual realm, or the collective unconscious, I sense things from time to time that are beyond me. The political shadow that Chopra writes about in Huffington Press, is part of what’s been bothering me. There are deeper, more primal forces being released in this campaign, reflecting a crucial time in the history of our society, that are floating around in the air somehow, and I sense them way before I can identify them. Knowing this helps my mood significantly. Vague as it may seem, I resonate with something out there.
Back in April at a Newfield Network weekend, we did an exercise designed to demonstrate how connected we human beings are to each other. Simply moving around the room, looking into someone’s eyes and saying, “I am you,” and receiving the same in return, generated a sense of that reality. By the time the exercise concluded, I felt a tangible resonance in the room, almost a hum, or a harmonic vibration – I kid you not. I felt this sensation in my body, heard it in my mind, and felt it in my heart for the next 12 hours.
If you’ve ever played around with a tuning fork and an acoustic sound board, like a guitar, you’ll know what I’m referring to. My husband used to use a tuning fork for his guitar. After the instrument was in tune, he would pluck a string and then put the tuning fork on the sound box of the guitar, and, without striking the tuning fork, it would begin to sing along with the vibration of the string. That’s what I felt like in that room in April – I was resonating with something that had come into tune, and I literally felt the vibration for the next 12 hours.
I’m not sure how to explain this, or what to conclude from it, but it’s just something I know for sure.
That article helped me too, as did this post. Thank you.
Everything is energy. Everything is vibration. Our piddling little perception fools us into thinking otherwise, but there’s no fooling what we are all feeling these days.
Whenever I’m in a rotten mood, I go outside and either dig in the dirt or pull up weeds and voila!, I feel in tune with the positive energy of the Earth, which I guess is also known as being grounded. I am so fortunate that there is no end of dirt or weeds since I am pretty much on house arrest.
I hope you are back to feeling joyful. I can’t quite imagine you in a rotten mood.
Yes, the world as we know it is falling apart at accelerating speed, but there will always be dirt, thank Universe.

I haven’t been timing your posts, but 12 days seems like a really long time. Are you okay? Is your family okay? I realize that if you are in a crisis, I am not on your speed dial and might never know. I’m hoping very much that you are all fine.
