Hello, everyone!

[Mystress]

Hello!
  I'm not back home yet, I just borrowed someone's internat connection to look in on you all.. seems like zero activity in this room since I left! LOL!!
  We are having a lovely trip, today I spent time wandering through the hotel of my dreams, looking at how much work it will be to make it livable again. That old building is pretty messed up, but I think most of the damage is cosmetic, peeling paint and softened plaster. Aside from the various bits missing that have been stolen over the years.. everything from copper pipe and wiring to sinks! There has been a lot of vandalism, but mostly of the theft variety, not much in the way of graffitti or anything like that.
 What has been very enjoyable is meeting the people in the town, and those in the nearby valley. Most have been warmly recpetive to the proposal I showed them, and that is very nice to know. Seems like I may end up on the economic development committee, which will be a good way of keeping abreast of local events.
 We have decided to stay an extra day, to celebrate solstice here. I want to draw a labyrinth in front of the hotel and walk it, and put some love into the place and the hotel. There are a few pagans around, and I have invited them to join me and druid in celebrating. Many of them are celebrating by climbing a local mountain.. that seems like fun, but they will not be back before we have to sail off, so it is a no-go for us. Still, it is nice to know they celebrate the sabbat.
  I still expect to be home July 1, so I will touch bse with you all again, then.. love and blessings!

hello beloved Mystress Angelique,

it is so great to see this unexpected message from you... i hope the weather has been better than it was for the first week of your trip... i almost suspected that you would decide to fly back and let druid sail back by himself after hearing about the aches and pains from the "sea air"...

i'm also extremely happy to hear that you are making such a wonderful connection to the OF locals... and especially that there are pagans celebrating the holidays up there... it bodes well for things to ultimately work out, and for your vision to manifest...

it is unlikely that you have been able to access your email... so in case you get to check into the Tearoom again, i want you to know that there is a special email message that i sent you yesterday... to give you a clue to what's up, the subject line is: "renewed commitment and obedience"... i will be joyfully working on revising the last chapter of the book with all of the changes you want as an action to demonstrate my change...  the work no longer feels overwhelming from my new perspective...

of course, this change in attitude and perspective made this Tuesday a very special one for me... thank you, Mystress... i know my nature a little better than i did before... and Queen Persina [my Divine Beloved] has merely laughed at me and teased me all the way through my dilemma... in making me a "Master Unto Myself", i am given me a new ability to submit more beautifully from a great place of personal power and freedom...

lovingly yours,    

percyval

[apologies to all my classmates who are teased by this email without really knowing what i am speaking about... i was just excited to get a message about this to Mystress Angelique as quickly as i could.]

Hi Angelique!

It's nice to see that you found your way to your hotel again. :-D   I'm sure it's fun for you to be there.
The area surrounding the hotel is really great, so natural (yes I know: rocks and rocks and rocks.. and waterrrr! .... and many trees too). That's the kind of place I miss the most.

Have you worked out what'd be the price for a hotel room for a week (or a month, a year? Even a life time?). I'd come with my wife! :-)

I hope you were not too sea sick on you way there (if I understand what Percyval wrote, the weather was bad).

Have fun and... one road peaceful and walk slowly on your way back (chinese ways of saying "bon voyage").

You are blessed.
I am blessed.

Augustin
(Goddess has it handled,
Everything is love.)

p.s. Percyval: we don't mind your personal note. It's nice to feel your excitement. Blessings. :-)

p.s.2 that's the first message I post in this tea room using my new Linux workstation. No more microsoft windows, no more intel! Yeepee! :-D
My wife *knows* that Linux is definitely better because she noticed that ever since I trashed win98 and use Mandrake Linux instead, I stopped beating my computer! (I guess win98 got me easily ungrounded, lol!)

that sounds great, Mystress... i plan on stopping by part of the time for both... but my chatroom stamina usually only allows for short visits...

Hi Mystress,

Welcome back! And yes I've been slacking, but boy have I been making progress in life!

I look forward to trying the chat - BTW I clicked on the link just now and got this message: Oops... You are not a member of the group Fire-Serpent_Tantra.

Peace and kisses,

 Progress in life is important! the program is supposed to ingrate into your life.

 Yes, I did! But I got a sore body, aching joints that I have only just figgered out is due to mildew allergy! Thank heavens, I was concerned it was arthritis or something nasty.. sailboats get mildew, because they are close to the water and damp all the time. I mostly ignored it during the month away, but when it persisted after I got home, I became concerned. So, now I need to detox..

hey, I'm no slacker! lol. I'm on lesson #41. Solstice time was a little rough cuz I had some old stuff leaving. I started a new homeopathic treatment and was really physically clearing my illness thang out... bleeeech so I haven't read {your lessons} for a week or so. I'm on hold for the moment. Universe will give me the go ahead again soon.

all things in good time.

I'm glad your back, your presence was noticeably absent on the lists. I'll try and get into the chat, I think that's 9pm CT?

Also Angelique, I've found that pure {not mixed with olive oil} essential oil of oregano {the wild stuff, not cheap store oregano which is actually sage} helps clear out the body of any viruses, molds, bacterias, parasites, etc. It's a natural antibiotic. Works awesome. I'm thinking it will eventualy replace medicinal antibiotics which are begining to no longer work. ya' know?

Uh.. Rebeckah, you only joined on May 27.. 41 lessons in 5 weeks does not allow much time to integrate the information into your daily life. Suggested speed is one lesson per week! That would be a different kind of slackin'... ripping through the lessons too fast without acting on the information.

Solstice time was a little rough cuz I had some old stuff leaving. I started a new homeopathic treatment and was really physically clearing my illness thang out... bleeeech so I haven't read {your lessons} for a week or so. I'm on hold for the moment. Universe will give me the go ahead again soon.

The Shaktipat from all of those lessons would have brought up a lot of stuff, too.. Did you read the lesson on pacing? Dunno about the universe, but I would like you to go back and study the stuff you zipped through and make it manifest for you. I'm glad you are a keener, but I am concerned you will not be ready for the graduation ritual, at the pace you are going. Maybe a lot of that stuff was familiar to you, but you cannot have had much time to solidify your relationship with the Divine Beloved, and the next lessons are the heavy stuff. You will need the support of your DB.

Thanks.. nice to know I was missed, but it was also gratifying to see how well the lists run without me. I have no idea of time zones..

Thanks.. I'll keep that in mind. I use a lot of oregano, anyhow. Propolis and grapefruit seed extract is my favorite antibiotic replacement.

I now created mine and have set times for

Vancouver is indeed GMT -7:00 now....

Thank you very much for thinking about me. :-D
I can tell you that you were right about Friday morning (in a funnily psychic way): it is indeed a good time for me.
The point is that Thursday night for you IS Friday morning for me. Since you are GMT-7:00 and me GMT+8:00, I am 15 hours ahead of you. The chat planned for (your) Friday morning would be 1 O'clock in the morning saturday and I have to get up early saturday to work. If the chat is held anyway, I might come to that one too, but I can't promisse.

Anyway, unless I run into problems with my new box, I should be there on (your) thursday evening.

Thanks for everything.

That would be a different kind of slackin'... ripping through the lessons too fast without acting on the information.

You still callin' me a slacker? GRIN!
I'm teasing. Well, I have encountered alot of the information in the classes before on my path. and I've been reading your posts for over a year on various lists, and you have posted alot of the class info before in various places. So, not much of the info itself needed to be integrated because it already WAS. This has been VERY repetitive for me so far.

As far as the energy goes, I'm already k awakened, but wanted to take this class because I think you have great knowledge to share. When reading your posts on k list I always found myself going *yea, I know that, that happened in my life* but then I understood what it meant in a different way. Something about validation of my experiences through another having similar experiences or sumthin. giggle.

I'm not reading the links right now cuz I wanted your personal viewpoint on things. I was planning on going back through and reading some more of the links later on. Since I know that there's a grad ceremony, I'll make sure to do that before the ceremony. Plus I can't watch the videos cuz my sound card is broke. If that makes a difference or not? I don't know.

Also, I think the later sections are what's really gonna be new to me and need integration. I follow my guidance as to pacing, and it's been just fine. Where I'm at now is like new information so I'm going slower already.

: The Shaktipat from all of those lessons would have brought up a lot of stuff, too.. Did you read the lesson on pacing? Dunno about the universe, but I would like you to go back and study the stuff you zipped through and make it manifest for you. I'm glad you are a keener, but I am concerned you will not be ready for the graduation ritual, at the pace you are going. Maybe a lot of that stuff was familiar to you, but you cannot have had much time to solidify your relationship with the Divine Beloved, and the next lessons are the heavy stuff. You will need the support of your DB.

What's a keener? I'm not planning on doing the grad ritual until I feel ready for it anyway. I'm not trying to zip thru the class for any particular reason. Other than the begining material was very repetitive for me. How do you know the lessons are NOT manifest in my life already? Just cuz I'm in your class? Yes, there's something here for me, and it's mainly in the sections you haven't written yet. smile.

And, my DB has been with me for a very long time already. It was just like an external guide I talked with. That lesson it moved into me more permanetly, {which is silly to say, since it's always in there. LOL.} instead of me refering to it as an outside force guiding me. Know what I mean? We've been communicating for years now already.

I mean no disrespect of you or the class, or others, but not everybody who takes your class is a spiritual newbie, or k asleep. ya' know? OK, well I'M not. And you KNOW Goddess has it all handled. If I was going too fast something would come up to slow me down. At solstice time my illness flared, and I respected that as a sign on many levels of my life, and slowed many different things I was working on. Like I said, I hadn't read for about a week or two, so I've already slowed down.

sheesh! I suppose I could have forgone all this defensive ego crap and just have said Goddess has it handled? LOL. But, I felt you deserved some explanation. Or I felt the need to defend myself? LOL. I know what I'm doing. Ooo, sounds like half a book title? giggle. oo, bad fairy me! lol.

And, it's nice to meet you finally.

: BTW: those bracketed i and /i are html code for italics.. I use them to make the posts easier to read, so my writing looks different from the students.
: Blessings!

thanks for the tip, I figgured that out when I saw you use html code and realized my first post was in italics. Sorry it was so hard to read. Doh!

Actually, I appreciate the explanations. :)Reassuring.
I feel some ~perhaps misplaced~ responsibility for my students progress, and so when you seemed to be zooming through I was concerned. I have known that there would be more advanced types taking the course, for whom a lot of the lessons would be old hat.. but how do I identify them? There were other students who did zip through without integrating, and had to be reined in.
So, sorry for seeming like some kind of den mother.. Do what you feel.

Thank you for being kind. I understand you're having karma comming back at you from everybody who does take your class, so, I think it is best if you are more over protective. Somebody could possibly have more stuff released than they can comfortably process. And in a weird way you are responsible. Which you know. I'm thinking that too much karma releasing and not clearing out may end up manifesting as illness in the body? Is that right? If so, that's some insight into what happened to me years ago. hmm.

I will admit, I had an issue in there too, which I've addressed. Actually, it was a wonderful *omen* for me. GRIN. So thanks for reflecting that to me.

I have no idea how you can identify anybody who's already done any work, other than putting in some comment about it, but that might prompt people to want to go too fast when they may not have thought about it before? I dunno. A pre-class quiz? Oh NO!  lol.

: Thank you for being kind. I understand you're having karma comming back at you from everybody who does take your class, so, I think it is best if you are more over protective.

Thank you. It is a delicate balance. If I worry about taking on too much karma, the fear blocks the flow.. and that is when I tend to get overwhelmed. So, I try to walk the middle path. Doing my job as guide while holding the perspective that Goddess has it handled. I do what I can do and She does the rest.

Somebody could possibly have more stuff released than they can comfortably process. And in a weird way you are responsible. Which you know.

Yes.. that is the hard part of awakening.. Goddess won't give you more than you can handle, but sometimes all that you can take, to push your limits. The only real pain of awakening comes of resistance, and it is in the nature of ego to resist, so some resistance is inevitable. My job is to simply offer the words the ego needs to hear, to surrender.

 It is a question of levels.. chakra dimensions. In the world of duality, I take on responsibility for guiding those who follow, as best I can. This is the agreement between teacher and student, I am where the buck stops.. Yet, I know well from being a pro-Dom, that I really cannot be responsible for what someone else does. Free will is Goddess Law. I can only lead those who chooose to follow. Thus, the disclaimer in the intro to the course.

 In the higher chakra world of non duality, there is only one of us and everything is as Goddess Wills... and there, it does not matter what I do, or even if this course exists.  Everything is perfection. When I lived entirely in a world of non-duality, I could not teach. Teaching requires judgment, and I could not, everything was perfection. Nor was there anything to teach.. Stuff just, Is, no need for explanations or to tell stories about it. All roads lkead to Goddess, there is nowhere else to go. Everyone is God-dess and if they do not see that in themselves, that does not change the truth of it.. it is just how they chose to play the game.

 Yet.. my slaves who I had left behind in the world of duality, my lists called to me to re-engage. I knew they did not need me, they needed nothing, being Divine.. but they did not know it. After a time, bliss got boring, and began to appear selfish. The Divine in them, a reflection of myself called me to come back into the world and complete on the aggreements I had made, to lead and to teach. No matter that it is illusion, a game. It is the only game in town, and it is love.
 So, I led all of my slaves into the Light, one by one... except for a few who chose not to let go of the illusion, and wrote this course, thinking that by doing so I could discharge my obligations and return to non-duality. Doesn't really work that way, of course.. in creating this, I committed myself to continue teaching.
 Yet, I am at peace with it. I have found the balance between living in non-duality and engaging duality. I see Goddess in everyone and everything, most of the time.. and I do not really know who is not enlightened, till they communicate in some way, to tell me of where they think Goddess is not. I try not to judge, so much as reflect judgments back to the person they came from.. a mirror for them to see themselves in.. and they reflect me, too. It is beauty.

Tuning in on my students, on my return.. lol!! Like schoolchildren who slack off and start throwing paper airplanes when the teacher is out of the room, a mixture of guilt and playful glee. I felt it, so I addressed it. Truly, it does not matter.. Life teaches, Goddess teaches through life itself.. that was my path. Yet, if they have committed to completion, then it is best for them to complete.. to keep the aggreements they made with themselves. Letting themselves down is bad for self esteem. Not loving to Self.

So, I'm thinking that too much karma releasing and not clearing out may end up manifesting as illness in the body? Is that right?

Yes. The body and the spirit are joined as one. If the messages from Spirit to surrender are not being heard, or if there are too many for the ego to process, then the body begins to speak in the language of illness. Uusally, it is not so much a question of going too fast for the body, so much as getting stuck on one issue and blocking up the flow for the ones following. You could say, illness is the spirits way of shouting when its gentler messages are not being heard. Not always.. some illnesses have other karmic purpose in shaping life events.. but, usually dis-ease is a sign that something is not released that must be released.

If so, that's some insight into what happened to me years ago. hmm.

: I will admit, I had an issue in there too, which I've addressed. Actually, it was a wonderful *omen* for me. GRIN. So thanks for reflecting that to me.

: I have no idea how you can identify anybody who's already done any work, other than putting in some comment about it, but that might prompt people to want to go too fast when they may not have thought about it before? I dunno. A pre-class quiz? Oh NO!  lol.

Actually, the original design for the course was to have a quiz every few lessons... with getting the right answers required before you can access the next page.  I never got around to creating the quizzes, but a new student recently wrote to me that he previewed all of the lessons on the day he subscribed. I do not approve of that, so I may install the quizzes after all,  to prevent it from occurring again. Aside from that, there is a kind of essay test before the graduation ritual.. you need to satisfy me about whether you are ready for the Grail, before I will allow access to the ritual page.

 I would like you all to congratulate Carla, who is likely to be the first graduate of the online version of FST!
 Uh.. guess I'd better get off my butt and write the next 2 sections of the course!! LOL!! Hm.. I think I might wait 2 months tho, summer is here!
 Blessings..
