Book of the Month
The Map: Finding the Magic and Meaning in the Story of Your Life
by Colette Baron-Reid
Intuitive counselor Colette Baron-Reid is renowned for helping people create the purposeful and authentic lives they desire. In this fascinating book, Colette hands you the “magic wand” of your own awareness so that you can begin to perceive your life as a wonderful adventure, and see yourself as an enchanted mapmaker.
Enter a deep journey into your inner landscape and meet the imaginary beings that hold the keys to the wisdom hidden in your subconscious: the Wizard of Awareness, the Gentle Gardener, the Bone Collector, and the spirits of the psychological terrain you traverse, who know where to find the treasure in each experience. Discover how to tame the mischievous trickster Goblin, who locks you into old habits. Each of these aspects of your psyche has lessons for you, and each responds to your directions, for you are in charge of your own map.
You don’t have to feel lost or disoriented in this time of global transformation, or be at the mercy of the winds of change. The Map invites you to boldly claim your power to direct your journey so that you may find meaning, purpose, and joy. Step into the magic, and harness the extraordinary power within you to shape your destiny.

Tea of the Month

South Africa |
| Region: |

South African Rooibos meets Spanish lemon in this tantalizing blend. Mellow, astringent and dripping with juicy lemon. |
| Ingredients: |
Luxury organic rooibos, Organic dried lemon peel, Organic calendula petals, Organic natural flavors.
|
 Ah Andalusia, home of the beating southern sun, mythical origin of the rhythmic clapping and body twirling of Flamenco and the famed source of some of the world’s juiciest and plumpest lemons, in Spanish, limón. Andalusia…the name simply rolls off the tongue. It is believed the region, the second largest Autonomous Community in Spain, (something like a State in the US), got its name from the Moors. After the battle of Las Naves in 1212, the Moors, Spain’s Arab conquerors decided to name the place Al-Andulus, which in time the Spanish adopted as Andalusia.
The Moors gave Andalusia a considerable amount more than a name. A few hundred years prior to the battle of Las Naves, they also brought over the lemon, which like the name Andalusia, the Spanish would later adopt as their own. The Moors loved the yellow fruit. They couldn’t get enough of them really and so, throughout the 8th and 9th centuries, as they conquered much of North Africa, parts of Southern Italy and of course, Spain, they planted groves to ensure they might never have to go without.
The Moors were finally expelled from Spain in 1492, but their lemon groves remained. To this day, lemons are a firmly entrenched part of Andalusian cuisine and are served with virtually every meal. One of the most fabled growing areas is the Valley of Lecrin, which in English,The Valley of Happiness. In the valley, the lemon trees grow on ancient terraces accessible only by mules. A visit will show you the campesinos, farmers, trundling up into the groves and coming back with bushels, gleaming yellow for sale by the roadside. The fruit is juicy, delicious and tart – just like a wonderful cup of this tea. We’ve developed this blend to capture the mystique of this beautiful corner of Spain. Delight your taste buds with a cup or two the next time you feel like something a little exotic!
|
Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of Rooibos for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the pot, cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes. Pour into your cup; add milk and sugar to taste.
Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons of Rooibos into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the Rooibos. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the Rooibos into the serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.

What do we really want?
True Desires vs. Borrowed Desires
By Ma Ananda Sangavasini, Reiki Master & Intuitive Life Coach @ the Divine Mine
.jpg)
Just a few days ago I had to go to get my phone charger replaced. I went to the store, and as I was scanning the shelves, not quite sure what to look for, a very friendly store clerk approached me, asking if I needed any help. I told him I was looking for a phone charger. He helped me find one, and along with it he assured me that I should cancel my existing phone plan with a competitive provider, that I needed a new, much better phone plan with them that came with a nice new phone including a new charger and a whole pile of other things that I knew I did not need. If I would not have been clear I would have walked in with the idea of getting a phone charger, and walked out with a whole lot of other things that I did not intended on getting. The story continues….
My next stop was at a soap store as I just wanted to get one bar of soap. Again it happened; the friendly store clerk told me that if I get two bars of soap I will get a nice dish with it – for free!
These stories are just to illustrate the movement of the wavering mind; these situations are perfect ‘outward’ reflections of what is going on in our inner world most of the time. We set out to do one task, one errand, and end up being distracted, finding ourselves getting or doing things we did not intended to at all.
Paramahamsa Nithyananda describes this process beautifully in his book “Living Enlightenment”. He describes the “borrowed desires” and the “true desires” in depth in here. Here is a quote from the book: “There is a difference between our true desires and ‘borrowed’ desires. Our true desires are called our “needs”. Borrowed desires are called our “wants”. In other words, some desires are innate, and some desires are accumulated.
Let us look a little more deeply into the nature of borrowed desires. Let us use an example we can all relate with. You are watching a program that gets interrupted by a commercial about some food or drink item. Upon seeing this you suddenly think:” good idea! I am actually kind of hungry or thirsty”. Before you know it you find yourself wandering off to get something to eat or drink. Like this, over many years, we take on many of these borrowed desires unconsciously. We are told that we need this car, this house, that spouse, and all kinds of other things to bring us the eternal happiness. The thing about borrowed desires is though that they never bring us the happiness that society promises.
What you can pick up as a spiritual practice is this. When a desire arises in you, just watch it with awareness. Where did you pick up this idea? When did the desire arise? Was it due so a cause? Along with these questions, which you can write down, bring your awareness inward and notice what is really going on in your inner space. What emotions are there? How does your body feel? Just this process will bring a lot of clarity in you. You will learn a lot about what desires are innate, and which ones you picked up! It is a fun exercise that I recommend for anybody. When we bring awareness into our lives that is when a big transformation happens.
Sangavasini will be facilitating SOUNDS OF REMEMBERANCE on Monday, May 9th, REIKI LEVEL TWO on Sunday, May 15th, and a LIFE BLISS MEDITATION on Sunday, May 15th.

Sun in Taurus 2011
By Carl Klimuk, Astrologer, Master Herbologist & Wholistic Practitioner @ the Divine Mine
Aries
If your feeling a little lazier this month or your spirit just isn’t into working too much or too hard it’s because you’re in self pampering mode. But it’s not just about getting a massage or indulging in some good food or even spoiling yourself by buying something that you want. This period is indeed to enjoy all of those things but with the purpose of gratitude & appreciation for all of the good that life offers. This is a good time to explore & expand money as well, through investments or exploring new ways to make or earn money.
Taurus
This is a highly social period for you Taurus! Catch up with old friends or make new ones! Don’t be surprised if you find yourself getting invited out more often, you also have the urge to reconnect with friends & family. Get involved more with groups or organizations.

Ways to Pray
By Natasha J. Rosewood, Author, Psychic Coach, Spiritual Healer, Workshop Facilitator, TV and Radio Personality
Sometimes, life gets to be just too much. Whether we are dealing with attempting to intervene with a beloved but hopelessly destructive person, help faraway victims of tsunamis or simply get our computer to cooperate, those feelings of helplessness can get us down. What's a person to do?
Surrender, first and then pray. But—you might ask—what will praying really achieve?
Many people don't really believe that the great one in the sky will grant you your wish. That's possible. Not all prayers are answered in the way we request. Sometimes, it's the way you pray that gets results.
Try this:
• Envision your desired outcome.
• Demand that the universe fulfill this need. Sometimes simply asking does not work.
• Feel the emotion of excitement, relief and gratitude of your desired outcome.
• Affirm in your mind that having this outcome is for the highest good of all concerned.
• Decide on a date by which this outcome will materialize. E.g. Friday at 3.00 pm.
• Let go and trust that your prayer is on its way.
• Relax until it is delivered.
Why does this work? Our thoughts are magnetic. What we decide we deserve will be ours. In my world, we are budding co-creators with God/The Universe. Life continually challenges us to step into our highest power—our happiness and joy—and use our imagination, thoughts and intentions to create our highest possible potential. So pray away.
Natasha will be visiting the Divine Mine again May 13th - 15th to perform readings, past life regressions an facilitate a workshop. Click here for more information.
