Random Prayer for Intuitives

It's important for each intuitive, medium and healer to stay as clear and distant from our ego/mind as we can get. To be open to the Divine energies and keep our judgments and human perspective out of the picture can be a challenge. To that end, I've morphed the following prayer from several sources and a short meditation, to serve as a clearing house before giving Spirit messages to others:

Universal Spirit,
May all messages come now in the form of a blessing. May each communication be free from pretense and agenda, and for the highest good of all. Cleanse us of fear and doubt. We thank you for the Divine Light and Guidance.

November Musings

Most mornings I take a walk either around Hyde Park, or my preference, a short drive then walk around the newly created Mueller Lake Park. The site of the former Austin airport, the park sports good, winding walking trails, grass mowed down to a 1/4 inch of its life, large blocks of what seems to be a sturdy sandstone leading down to the lake. It's been a joy to see the pond/lake begun to fill with little ducks, and the two prize snow white geese...or ducks...are sweet to watch. Lately, the neon green wild parrots have begun to show up, can't miss them for their enthusiastic yappying, and it seems like they've found an urban paradise.

The crowning feature tho, is the fountian. Running constantly, steadily shooting a curve of recycled water into the peach morning sky, its thing I see as I drive towards my destination. A few days ago, I saw the subtle but unmistakable reflection of a rainbow in the waters' spout. As you've probably noticed, the hues of the rainbow shift and merge into one another, and between the colors, one can discern a glow, milky, then clear, but always radiant. This hue represents the etheric...the substance that keeps all together...spirit.

Rainbows are indeed special and fleeing things, a joy to behold. My first sight of an entire rainbow...the beginning, the arc, and the end, occurred at sunset at Nauset Beach on Cape Cod about a decade ago. It must have spanned at least 40 miles, taking up a good portion of the horizon. I was alone on the beach this late fall day, and realized the witnessing of this spectacular sight was a rite...a mark of passage. If, I thought, I was in an accident and left the earth plane soon, I would have felt satisfied, that a segment of my life and needed work had been completed. The thought itself shocked me...satisfied? Completed?

Of course, I've lived a full decade beyond that moment,creating a life, with memories and lessons I'm entirely grateful to have experienced. And there will be more...unless there isn't. But for today, to have an almost guaranteed rainbow show up in the fountain at the park (yes, depending upon the sun/time of day/etc), well, its a blessing in an urban paradise.
