What an amazing weekend this was for me.  Unplanned, unplugged and unforgettable!  It seems the most soul-shattering events occur like this...something I need to share with you all.

.

The Dancing Cranes Imports here in Salt Lake City is one of my very favorite places, a venue of peace and spirituality where anyone can visit, spend an hour or the day soaking in the metaphysical to feed your soul.  I spent an afternoon in this amazing place just browsing their inventory of crystals, jewelry, chimes, incense and other wonderful oils and scents, etc.  Sitting just to one side was a palmist.  She offered her services reading palms, providing guidance and validation of the spirit.  Of course I had to take advantage of her and immediately plopped down in the chair reserved for her clients.  A friend had his read first and I was astonished at how insightful she was (details...not generalities that can be improvised) about him and his talents, gifts, etc.  My turn came along and I requested a little different service.

.

"I want to know about my past life, if there is one," I blurted out. 

.

Her response was a knowing smile and she dropped silky oil over my palms, then began the reading.  Looking into my current life, she gave me guidance.  Advancing to my soul, she gave me hope.  Then to my past life...or rather LIVES as I was to find out.  I kept looking for something to validate my uncanny knowledge of the 18th Century sea, those magnificent tall ships and (of course) pirates. 

.

It didn't come....but what did present itself to me was the valuable knowledge that not one lifetime is key but rather ALL the experiences that have brought me to this one.  This is the information I wish to share with you. 

.

Watch for the moments of recognition, those images and impressions of things long past but intimately familiar.  Acknowledge them as part of the creation of who you are.  Give thanks and move forward knowing you are exactly where you need to be at this time.
