Synchronicities and Mysterious Arms That Support Us
This week’s blog features a fascinating series of personal oracles recorded by a schoolteacher and sent to me through my website. She shares how she noticed each one and then goes on to explain what inspired her to embrace those mysterious arms that were supporting her all along.
Here is the schoolteacher’s submission in its entirety.
There are several
parts to this sharing. The first is how your book came into my hands. I belong
to a book club and often choose not to get the monthly selection, or get it and
put it to the side until a time when that book “speaks” to me. Not so
with Everyday Oracles. I immediately ordered it when it was offered. I
began reading it the day it arrived, both highly unusual choices for me.
The next parts are
why this book needed to be in my hands now. I “know” how to listen and
how to hear the messages, but for the last many years, daily life has worn
me down and I could not consistently stay tuned in. Having this book come
into my hands at this time made reading it highly unlikely. I am an
elementary school teacher and the last weeks of August and the beginning of
September are busy and stressful. I have nearly finished the book. And
some very clear experiences have reminded me of how multi-layered our world is.
One morning, when
I had just begun the book, I was driving to work trying to quiet the racing
squirrel that lives in my brain. I thought, “I know oracles are
everywhere. I need to just relax and......” and there was the sign....a
beautiful brown doe gazing over her shoulder as I breezed by, quiet contemplation
reminding me that when life events are important a deer appears for me.
Okay, understood. I thanked the Universe and went on.
Besides being a
busy teacher, my family life has been extremely chaotic and overwhelming with
demands and needs. One particularly difficult morning, again, driving, I was
thinking of the book. Usually sky oracles for me had been in form of
rainbows or lights shining through the clouds, but this was a very rainy, grey
morning and I wondered about cloud messages and there it was....the universe
sent me a heart, one that remained there as I traveled, sending me the message
of love that I so needed to hear. I finished the drive thanking the Universe.
During these weeks
full of demands, I had been ranting at my husband that I needed someone to take
care of me. I was taking care of everyone else, expecting him to start stepping
up. After another heated discussion I picked up the book and on p.204 I read,
“You have a choice here. You can either open the door to the assistance that is
right there.................It is in these moments precisely that you can
experience mysterious arms supporting you - if only you are willing to feel
them.” There it was, right in your words. Again I spent the morning
thanking the Universe for such a clear message.
That same morning,
almost as if to make sure I got the message, as I l drove away from the grocery
store a sea gull swooped in front of my car, circled sharply and swooped
directly in front of me again. As I wondered what message the sea gull
was bringing I sensed the words, “We are here.” With heartfelt relief I
thanked the Universe yet again for sending me such clear and concise messages.
Thank you for
putting your words and the stories of so many others in this book to support us
in our journey. Thank you for helping me regain my sense of synchronicity.
Thank you.
My note to our teacher:
Your experiences along with the gratitude you express along the way is
truly inspiring. Thank you for
sharing.
