Help Us Help Others – Update

Help Us Grow Our Services
To Help Those In Need

Spring’s Haven Summer Campaign

Over the summer we held a fund raising campaign to Help Us Help Others in need. We began our campaign on August 3rd and it ran through to Samhain on October 31st. We focused on requests we received from people who are shut-in at home due to illness or tragedy, as well as, military personnel who are looking for someone to talk to and who holds the same spiritual beliefs.

We shared A Story of Hope and A Smile Can Help Someone Survive to share how our efforts will help those we have heard from.

Our campaign was a success and we couldn’t say Thank you enough to our sponsors for their generosity!. We raised enough to purchase 1 ipad and expand our services for digital face to face consultations and counseling. We couldn’t have done it without our wonderful friends who supported our effort!

Prayers & Sympathies To Newtown, Connecticut

Dec14

Our Deepest Sympathies To The Community Of Newtown, Connecticut

Our hearts and prayers go out to the families, friends and the community of the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

Words seem inadequate to express the sadness we feel over the tragic loss of so many young innocent lives. Our sympathies, love and support we send out to all families and friends of those have been taken from this world too soon. We pray that the GreatSpirits welcome them with love and compassion. And that each and everyone touched by this devastating tragedy is illuminated and comforted in Divine Light. May you find the strength to endure and live on to hold their memories in your hearts.

I hope the following articles help those looking for ways to cope:
1. When Tragedy Strikes: When Bad Things Happen To Good People
2. Dealing With Trials and Grief

Springwolf holds a Doctorate in Divinity and a Doctorate in Philosophy in Spiritual Counseling. She counsels families and women of abuse.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Seven of Wands

Dec14

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Let the past go. You’ve done all you can and it’s time to move forward. It is what it is for a reason. You may not see it now, but it will become clear in 7 cycles. If you continue to fight for the past, you will prolong the sorrow. Change isn’t easy, but at this time; it is necessary.

Additional Insight:

Haven’t you struggled enough? You’ve been fighting the changes around you and trying to hold onto the old patterns for long enough. The Divine Universe has tried to show you the way to the path you should be taking, but you keep looking behind you. What has been is gone. Put it to rest and let it go.

You’ve mourned, you’ve become angry and you’ve struggled. Now turn all that energy toward what lies ahead and welcome the changes. Spread your wings and take the journey with excitement and joyful anticipation. You’ll be glad you did. And you’ll find yourself in a much happier and better place.

Allow all efforts you’ve made to change, to work its magik and manifest from Divine Creation. Let the wands wave and the inspiration of your spirit take you in the needed direction! You may just find, it’s not only where you need to go, but where you want to be as well.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Nine of Pentacles – Inverted

Dec13

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t splurge. Sit on what you have. The real important possessions are held in those you are closest to. It’s not in the material things you’d like to have. Those possessions won’t comfort you when you’re down, they won’t hug you when you need love and they won’t celebrate with you when you rise above the struggles. Focus on the quality of time together. The the quantity of “things”.

Additional Insight:

Our society is focused too much on what you have in the material world and not what you have within your spiritual world. Many people can’t afford to celebrate the holidays with giant presents under a tree, if they have a tree at all. The Cosmic shift in energy that’s occurring is helping to remind us of what’s really important. You can fight it and be left behind. Or you can allow the change to guide your steps and change your view.

Instead of being upset that you don’t have the latest gadget to spend time away from you family. Get out a game board and spend time WITH your family. Laugh together, share stories and memories. Go outside and walk in the woods. Point out the little things in nature that you’ve been missing all this time and remember what life is really about.

The love and compassion you share between each other is the real focus of the cosmic shift. Survival of the most spiritual isn’t about what you can buy, how big your house is, or how fancy your car is. It’s about how you relate to those in the world around you. Do you see them? Or can’t you see past the screen on you pc, tablet or smart phone. How many times have your kids said “Mom”/”Dad” and you ignore them because you’re focused on the next text message, or Tweet, or story notification on your phone?

Your survival depends on you. Not on whither or not you picked up and shared the latest bogus internet story. So disconnect and focus on the eyes of your child, the smile of your partner, or the love from your parents, siblings or best friend. These are the signs of abundance. Enjoy them.

Today is December 12, 2012 – Does It Mean Anything?

Today Is 12/12/12

Today even Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson got into the excitement on Twitter. At 12:12 he sent a tweet:
@neiltyson If you happen to enjoy the uniqueness of 12h 12m 12s 12/12/12, then don’t forget 12h 12m 13s 12/12/12. It’s just as rare.
He timed his tweet pretty well too. It was sent at 12h:12m:13s on 12/12/12. Truth be told, I started writing this post at 12:12, and thus the publish date/time looks pretty good too. 😉

And he wasn’t the only one marking the occasion. Our local NBC News station here in Richmond rang in the moment with party horns and cheers. For them it was 12:12:12: on the 12/12/12 on NBC12. You can’t make this stuff up people.
@AndrewFreiden Wish you were here!!! pic.twitter.com/nyBOe62w.

For many this unique occurrence was simply a good time to break the work or school day up and have a little fun. The repeated pattern is cute, unique and it won’t happen again for 89 years. For others who believe in Numerology, it’s a time to mark the occasion with spiritual energy, cosmic interpretation or psychic prophecy. Continue reading →

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Three of Wands – Inverted

Dec12

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Read the fine print today. The devil really is in the details. Remember if it’s too good to be true, it probably is. If you can, avoid signing contracts today. Give yourself time to read them over and look at what you’re getting into. Don’t let desperation lead you into a bigger hole.

Additional Insight:

Sadly the world is not filled with compassionate businesses. Be careful the deal you’re handed is benefiting you equally as it is for the person making the offer. Sadly some will try to use your stress and anxiety to turn a phrase that sounds great for you, but in the end gives them the upper hand and chance to take something away from you. Maybe even something you thought you saved.

Asking for help isn’t easy. In fact, It’s Hard…Asking for Help. But let those who are choosing to give you help, burden you with guilt. They have a choice to help or not. No one has twisted their arm or held a gun to their head. So if they help you, it’s their choice to do so. Be gracious, say thank you and show your appreciation. But don’t take on additional burdens simply because they want you to feel deeply indebted to them, or to have some power over you.

For today, simply watch your back. Take your time. Don’t rush into anything. Don’t let others pressure you into the deal by saying it won’t be here tomorrow. If it’s meant for you, it WILL be there tomorrow. Trust in your instincts and that the Divine in your life really IS working on your side. Even if no one else is.

Something To Remember About Compassion

Dec11

It’s Hard…Asking For Help

It’s hard to be positive when you’re faced with such negativity.
It’s hard to smile with joy, when anger is sent your way.
It’s hard to stand up to challenge, when so many kick you while you’re down.
It’s hard to shelter those around you, when you’re at the bottom asking for help to get up.
It’s hard to be compassionate, when others compare their inconvenient trials to your desperate struggles.

Is it no wonder that those who are at their wit’s end, pull away, ignore the phone, delete the emails, cry in private and fall out of your life? Sometimes those in struggle can’t take that one more hateful word, one more comment of guilt, one more blame they had no control over.

Remember someone always has it worse than you. And they’re not responsible for the choices you make to help them or not. Don’t assume others don’t know about your sacrifices. Don’t accuse them of being ungrateful, when they’ve said thank you or they appreciate your past help. No one “wants” to ask for help. It takes a lot of strength, courage and humility to turn to others. Don’t smack them down for it. You maybe their last and only option.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knave of Cups – Inverted

Dec11

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Hold steady today and allow the Divine energy around you to cushion your path. You’ve had enough hard knocks. The Divine in your life is guiding your path upward though you may not see it or feel it right now. Don’t make rash decisions or give up on your options. It will be ok.

Additional Insight:

You have a lot going for you under the table, even though you can’t see it. Allow the positive energy you’ve put forth all year to create the path you are to be on. What you “need” and what you “want” may not be the same thing. But you are being guided to a better place and to a place that needs you as much as you need to be there.

You done your work and put forth your dreams and desires. Now stay the course and allow that energy and effort to manifest as it’s intended. Giving up, changing direction or tossing it all away because it’s not working out as quickly as you want it to will only set forth blocks in your path.

It’s not a time to do nothing. Don’t sit there and expect things to appear out of no where. You still need to move forward with the plans you’ve been working on. So make the phone calls, keep the appointments, meet the deadlines you set. But don’t work against those things out of frustration or a defeated attitude.

Hold still for a moment. Take in a deep breath and release the stress. See the success of your path being showered with yellow rose pedals to celebrate your success! Visualize it. Feel it. Know it. And it will be.

If you need additional focus, don’t forget the 5 Minute Alignment Meditation practice. You can do that meditation every morning to set your day on the right path and gain guidance for where you need to be and the direction you need to go through out the day.
