Your Weekly Mantra: I Thrive From What Nourishes & Delights Me! www.tatianascavnicky.com

Seth  Doyle

Today fully wrapped up in my to-do list I found myself here, at your weekly mantra. Just before I started I turned my unicorn lamp on and made myself a cup of my favorite coffee. Bob Marley sings to me "I Wanna Love Ya". 

It's so easy to get whacked out with our lists and tasks. Yes we have people and things to attend to. But where are you on your list? Maybe right now you are so busy wrapping up your book for publishing, beloveds climbing at your feet and pulling on your clothes, or working on an important work project. Or coming home from a long day and all you want to do is veg out unconsciously.


Fill in your current state of affairs. 

Life...


Is luxuriousness a possibility in your everyday? Or play? Perhaps music could bring extra clearing energy to you and the housework or paperwork you simply must do. Light candles **safely** and put on some soothing music in the mornings or evenings. Ask your Higher Power to bring more joy and contentment to your everyday experience. Believe that Spirit is always looking to get your attention. Allowing your vibe to get high and expand attracts more support and unexpected gifts and miracles as well as the divinely radiant afterglow. 

When you can't get to the spa, or out to hang with your girls and your list presses on you, cast joy and magic on it. Studies confirm that pleasure and delight strengthen our immune systems releasing healing feel-good chemicals into our blood. Resentment over time has the potential to be poisonous.

Pleasure isn't staying up night after night or doing way too much of what you like. It's nourishing yourself. Pleasure is fully and consciously delighting in the bites you take of that dark chocolate. In fact in her book "Ageless Goddess", Christiane Northrup says studies show habits that aren't that good for us if performed and experienced in the sheer delight of rapture can actually be healing. 

It's feeling your way deliciously through a yoga session. It's an impromptu dance party with your kids with a secret intention to tire them out, loving it. Time alone with your honey is underrated. It's a full-on energy clearing meditation ending in deep fulfilling relaxation. It's saying the words themselves and letting them envelope you and fill your cells with heavenly feel-good light. Rapture. Delight. Luscious. Delicious. Ecstasy. Satisfaction. Love. 


It is also crossing those things off your list that you committed to doing. That can feel so good. That goodness and pride makes more good stuff and juice to keep you moving forward, but make regular deposits of coinage to your pleasure principle bank. The more treasure amassed the stronger and healthier your immune system will become. Constant stress and overwhelm can suck the juice out of your life and your joints. 

Really tragic things will happen in a course of a human's life so get off at the next stop and exit the crazy train. 

Be true to your desires. A road trip or spontaneous trip. Nourish yourself with an afternoon spent languishing lazily reading and nibbling on your favorite treats, a nap or ten glorious minutes of nothing. Pleasure calms your nervous system. Don't let the world out there convince you that rushing and pushing constantly is a standard of living to choose for yourself. We flourish and thrive in environments of balance, fun, rest and accomplishment. Take it slow and purposeful. Intentional and steady. Strategic with stealth.


These mantras are like personal notes to you. I am grateful and happy that you are here with me. If I can bring you an elevated experience....maybe even enchanted and a different way of looking at things I've fulfilled my intention. 

I would love to know what topics light you up and what you'd like to get more of to wet your spiritual appetite. Feel free to talk to me always in the comments below or chat me up here.

Stay tuned for October's Aries Full Moon Oracle Card Reading.

You don't want to miss my upcoming Live Event this Saturday! Details here


Have a lusciously delicious & divine week!

Crystal Alchemy: Sweet Selenite ~ A Must-Have Gem www.tatianascavnicky.com

Selenite is named after the Greek Goddess of the moon, Selene. This delicate, soft and serene crystal is one of "the" crystals to have around you to create peace, serenity and calm. Some crystals can disturb your sleep, but you can put this gem on your bedside table. Because Selenite is restful and soothing, it can be used for helping with insomnia. Try it out and see. Use it for clearing your mind and emotions, and to release stress. It does wonders for relaxation and meditation.

Selenite is a form of gypsum which means "liquid light". It can be white, peachy brown rose as “Desert Rose Selenite”, or orange and blue-grey. It is perfect for a baby's room or anywhere in the house you'd like to bring tranquility and stillness. I like the white and softer muted colors for nurseries and kid’s rooms. Feng Shui, “the ancient art of placement”, calls for using it in living rooms, bedrooms and the spiritual center of the house, the front left corner of your home. The one pictured above comes from my favorite crystal shop Kona Rock & Mineral on the Big where I used to live. I gave intuitive readings there and often recommended selenite to help with meditation and for clearing energy. I love a sweet selenite wand on my oracle card decks to keep them clean and clear in between readings.

Magical Properties of Selenite

*Especially good for Zodiac signs: Taurus & Capricorn

*Planet: Moon 

*Element: Wind

*Chakras: Crown, Higher Crown & Third Eye

*Vibration: Number 8

*Angels: Gabriel & Haniel

*Goddess: Selene

Crystals need to be cleared from time to time, some more than others. Obsidian never has to be cleared. It automatically clears itself. Selenite, like kyanite and lepidolite cannot be put into water. Cleansing your crystals under moonlight can be a beautiful full or new moon ritual. Clear them every other month, or every season. The difference in how they feel will be amazing, very much like when you wash your favorite sweater or jeans. They feel brand new again.

I also recommend clearing and washing your daily jewelry and pieces you wear often. Psychometry, the ability to read inanimate objects works off this principal. Energy and vibration can be read off an object that belongs to someone, or a deceased loved one. A person’s energetic blueprint or vibration is carried in the crystals and objects that belong to them. 

I am often asked if crystals really do anything for us. I have done performances and workshops in crystal shops and it can be really hard to stay grounded. A lot of them together make a room hum and vibrate. How do you feel when you are out in nature? How does sitting by a beautiful stream filled with smooth pebbles and stones sound? Heavenly right? We are connected to nature and all of its elements. Its elements exist inside of us. The air is our breath. Our blood is water. Fire is the heat inside us needed for digestion and assimilation. Spirit is space in and around us. The Earth element is our bones and muscles. Crystals are of the earth.

We are taken away by the ocean's waves because we are 70% water. Looking up into the night sky's stars take us to dreamy otherworldly places, yet we are made of those same stars. Lush green forests connect us to the earth element. So how can we not be touched by crystals? Make Selenite your go-to crystal for rooms that need softening and quiet. Have one in your car, or at your work desk. I have a big chunk of rose quartz, “the love crystal” in my car, another soft and blissful stone. Combine these together for full-on peace, love and serenity.

Your Weekly Mantra ~ I Bless My Future Because I Can www.tatianascavnicky.com

Via 

It's so easy to let our minds mill over things that aren't so good for us, causing stress, or worry. Our minds are always thinking. That's what they do. It's easy to let them just go off and wreak havoc if we let them. Anne Lamott said it so well! "My Mind is a neighborhood I try not to go into alone." 

Rumination is thinking about something over and over, that is upsetting and not positive. Rumination refers to the tendency to repetitively think about the causes, situational factors, and consequences of one's negative emotional experience. ~ Nolen Hoeksema


If you tend to be a worrier or not, focusing on what you want keeps your mind thinking about exactly that, and not what don't want. The morning is a good time to think about how you want to feel, and what you are up to in life. Our deeply creative subconscious mind is super receptive in between sleeping, and being fully awake. Before bed is too. Keep your most important goals with you, maybe in a pretty book, written on a card, or on your tablet or phone. 

We have all had those days where we wake up tired, and we are not feeling it. First thing when you wake up is the best time to say, "I bless my future because I can." Add I feel good, or I am confident and I easily get things done today. Everyone I meet is cheery. There are lots of things to be grateful for today. 

I was inspired by Super Soul Sunday for this week's mantra. Joel Olsteen talked about the power of I AM. This is an ancient practice and I am thrilled he is preaching about it. It will take you far. Thinking good and affirming thoughts blesses us, and our future. We have the power! Try it this week and let me know how you do. 

Hope you have a beautiful week.

Weekly Mantra ~ I Look For The Good Stuff www.tatianascavnicky.com

Now we know that just two minutes daily of looking for the "good stuff" can change the playing field of life. Simple techniques like keeping a gratitude journal can help take away the "blues" or the "blahs". But maybe you aren't into keeping a looking for Mr. or Mrs. Good Stuff journal. Maybe your version of grateful goodness is walking your dogs or cooking dinner for your family. 

Pleasure is an essential nutrient that you need, each and every day, to become and remain healthy. ~ Dr. Christiane Northrup, author of Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom

Anytime you do "stuff" that feels really good to you in a healthy way, you are feeding the sunshine within you...the goodies in your cells respond well to pleasurable experiences. A party of feelgood chemicals like dopamine and serotonin will show up. Christiane Northrup calls nitric oxide the "spark of life". It's released from high levels of 
pleasure like sexual intimacy and by just thinking of yourself as sexy and vivacious. Stress cuts away at these feelgood chemicals and our health. 


Do what makes you happy. Watch the sunrise or sunset. Spend quality time without cell phones or computer guests. You don't have to meditate or journal. I love too...but that's good stuff for me.  Follow your bliss? Yes...look for the good-stuff. It can only make this week really good.

My 2016 Forecast is still mighty good and reduced till the end of January. Feel free to contact me about a session or book yours now before
the 31st. 

Magical blessings of lots of Good Stuff!

Your Weekly Mantra ~ Mother Nature Always Heals Me www.tatianascavnicky.com

“Perhaps being amidst the undesecrated beauty of the wilderness meant that I too could be undesecrated, regardless of what I'd lost or what had been taken from me, regardless of the regrettable things I'd done to others or myself or the regrettable things that had been done to me. Of all the things I'd been skeptical about, I didn't feel skeptical about this: the wilderness had a clarity that included me.” ― Cheryl Strayed, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail

At levels we are not aware of Nature...Mother Nature has her way with us. At her oceans, rivers streams and lakes we are affected. We are after all 70% water. We literally melt and merge. She touches our Soul. 

Eco-therapy as it's now called has been known to help alleviate depression in tandem with other methods of traditional treatment. And it can boost energy levels up 20%. 

It makes me so happy to see picnic tables outside of corporate buildings for people to sit. I am lucky to live right on a park and on my walks I always see people eating lunch in their cars or at one of the tables. I can't tell you the joy I feel sitting underneath the huge and beautiful trees that have protected me and my house all these years. 

Recently I had to have a tree cut down in my yard. I was devastated at the thought of doing away with my friend and confidante. I put it off for two years. Turns out it wasn't an ash tree but a boxed elder whose roots had torn up cement, making their way towards the foundation of my house. It would continue to grow taller, wider and rounder. 

During my recent trip to Kona I made arrangements to have it cut down. I just couldn't be there. Thank God I still have the four amazing oaks so close, that still shade and protect my property. 

The picture above was taken at Honaunau on the Big Island of Hawaii. I was on a mission to get back there. I needed to be there at the water's edge to make sense of things not at an intellectual level, but at a spiritual level. 

This week take time to be outside every day if you can even for a few minutes. If you need guidance on something set that intention. Say a prayer or sit in the shade of a tree or by a lake and do nothing. Let Mother Nature do her thing. She loves you.

Mind Blowing Mercury Retrograde in Gemini ~ www.tatianascavnicky.com

Has your brain been on meltdown mode? I finally put two and two together today. Mercury has been in retrograde in my rising sign of Gemini. I am a Virgo Sun also ruled by Mercury. Even as I write, my usual text color is begin overridden by some cosmic force and my computer is getting ready to update. Typically I don't pay too much attention to a mercury retrograde phase unless I am intuitively guided to. 


Geminis, Virgos and Capricorns too might be having a time of it mentally because they are very goal oriented. If Mercury is in your astrological chart, in either of these signs you may be on meltdown mode. The rest of you...body and spirit then gets the trickle down effect. 


Some of the symptoms you might be experiencing are difficulty thinking things through, and finishing sentences. The thought of having to organize paperwork, apply for a loan or mortgage could send you over the edge into zap zone. You may crave lots of time alone. Certain issues that have taken up residence in the back of your mind, are flashing lights. Deal with me and listen to me. If you work-out you may feel all you can do walk and yoga. Spinning or  high-intensity training could feel like a marathon.


This could be cleansing of mental crap that you realize just doesn't serve you to go over and over in your head. Right now surrender. Dinners with friends, pleasure seeking, being in your body, long walks in the park alone and rest will get you through to the other side. It's over tomorrow but it's effects will linger a bit. Use what is has shown you. 

Did you feel this retrograde phase? Did it hit you hard? I'm wondering what you may have taken away from this one.

How To Feel Better Instantly With The Violet Flame ~ Energy Magic www.tatianascavnicky.com

Via

I don't know about you but I've been feeling so sensitive! The energy has been heavy. If you are extremely clairsentient which means "clear-feeling" you may have felt an extra blast of intensity. Check out my free "Ignite Your Intuition~ Superpower Series" to see if you are clairsentient and for more tips on managing being empathic. 


It's time to shield and clear your energy. The violet flame is a universal purifying technique used for exactly this kind of cosmic-energy fog. 


I've chosen an image with red and orange in it for additional grounding. The amethyst crystals pictured here are part of Kona Rock & Mineral's new "Beautiful Spirit Collection" from Brazil. I used to do readings at this shop when I lived in Kona. There stuff is hand-picked and curated from around the world.

Here's what to do:
Center yourself. Take a few deep breaths and close your eyes. After a few deep cleansing breaths open your eyes and step into the violet flame image pictured. 

Let yourself be surrounded in the color. Feel it saturate you down to the marrow of your bones. Be here as long as you need. You may want to close your eyes. If you are very visual  or clairvoyant, you may want to keep your eyes open visualizing this image as you clear and cleanse your energy. 


When you are ready, slowly open your eyes and feel the surface beneath you. Feel your feet on the ground. Ask your angels, especially Archangel Michael for protection and shielding. 

Be sure to watch the Ignite Your Intuition~Superpower Series  to see what your intuition style is. It's so exciting to see how you get your intuition whether through deep emotional sensitivity, being visual or through profound deep-thinking. It helps you make better decisions!

Feel better!
Divinely Yours,
XoTatiana
