It's Lugh- witchy icky nah nah
It's the end cusp of lughnasadh.
I must say I'm not feeling too well. I took the day off work today to rest, relax and head up to the Doctor's to find out what this cough/cold thing is all about. I was convinced that I was getting better, but in the last day I'm feeling worse, and I kept myself up most the night coughing and also bouts of heartburn. I'm not doing that bad, it just seems to be lingering on and on. I'm not convinced it's a cold I have come down with.
I don't know if I've ever talked about what I do for a living in my journal? I'm a technician in a Network Operations Center for a huge global wide telecom corporation. It's a high pace, high stress environment. I work on the team taking the inbound calls. In fact I have strayed away from speaking about my job in the public eye because I never know if they could be reading this at some point and we have to maintain a certain level of governmental security clearance. So I cannot discuss that any further.
I've been training new people at work for the last two weeks straight ever since I got back from vacation. Last week my lead was out and I was by myself on the phones , training and coming down with this icky stuff.So I've been shoved into a half of my cubicle trying not to cough on my trainee and the guy who moved into the spot next to me for the last week and half.My body is just letting me know I need a 'me' day.
Perhaps it's spirit just telling me to stop the break neck speed I seem to always be functioning at. If I'm not doing three too much, I'm probably stuck in a bed incapacitated and let me tell you there is no in between usually. Today though I'm not totally bed bound but I'm also not having a day where I want to be around people.
On a side note I'm really worried about using the phrase 'We need to water'. In the last 2 years every time and I'm not even kidding (every single time) I tell my husband that 'we need to consider watering the lawn' we get rain in 12 hours or less. I said it yesterday evening , today I wake up and it's raining a bit. Last time I said it it was 104 degrees without a cloud in the sky last week. Within an hour and half the sky clouded over and it started pouring. We didn't have rain in the forecast and there was a 0% chance of precipitation. It just keeps happening.
If I say 'water' it comes! I should have tried that when I was stranded in the desert in Death Valley on our trip back to Austin last year. Did I ever mention that? Ohh that is a story all by itself. So this 'water bringer' thing began happening around the spring of 2015 when we were in Carson City. I've been forbidden from saying the phrase by my husband, and that includes 'we need to wash the car', as it rains every time. I'm not sure if perhaps I sense it's coming and say it , or if the Earth is just answering my call. Here you readers are probably thinking I'm one the gullible types who believes in anything and everything. I really don't, it's just these incidents happen through my life experiences that make it impossible to deny my connection psychically and spiritually to these situations, and there are always plenty of witnesses to attest. At this point I'm sure a great deal of people reading this think I'm crazy.
The worse thing about being a shaman is the shaman sickness. It's hard to heal yourself.
I'm burning the candles, and honoring the light, one of favorite scents -- myrrh is pulsing the air. I'm just going to wrap up, relax and head over to the doctor's this afternoon.
