Hi Nora, I think of you and Jon every day, as I have an eye on California weather, I have family and friends in the Bay Area. It must be something else! Having lived in Ireland I remember never letting rain curb our style, walk, play tennis, ride your bike, sure. But there's something about the torrential nature of the rain you are experiencing that would have me staying indoors. My father inherited millions and within 10 years had gambled it all away and died owing millions, his house had 4 liens on it. He even used emotional blackmail and abuse, screaming, insulting, etc.. to get money from us, his children. Even from us when we were teens! So needless to say I've had to do a very conscious job to heal my relationship with money= abuse, money=power abuse, and about 6 years ago I really got it!!!! My wealth lives within, it is my 5D connection, my beauty, my creativity that lives within, and ever since I REALLY understood and felt that I have been blessed with more money in my bank account, a sense of security, not stressed, etc... And even despite that, these times we are in right now, test me every day, to remember, my wealth lives within. These are crazy times, where I can spiral to feelings of insecurity. Today again, I have a meeting with my editor and I really have to be talking myself into feeling happy. So even without the upheaval you guys are facing, man I feel it too. I love you so much and LOVE this forum for connection.
Thank you so much for all you have shared. I can relate.
Extra thank you for the reminder that my wealth lies within. I know this to be true and do feel very rich when it comes to so many things. I am thankful that we have more than enough, which we do, and yet, I have held myself back from having more due to such similar experiences to yours.
I hope your meeting goes great, and I love you too.
Yes, I have heard you say many times about our wealth lives within your words validate(d) this as something I KNOW. I guess it's a good thing we keep this knowledge alive and repeated. Love you!
Love this authenticity here. I too have a dwindling bank account and am facing hard financial times, but having lived life to the fullest since covid arrived, I am the happiest I’ve ever been with no regrets.
Meanwhile, the rough waters of the North Sea threaten our Dutch borders and the people living near them everyday 🌊 and will the rain ever stop!? Is perma-grey the new light? 😩
I too have been thinking -- most uncharacteristically for me -- about my failure to do all the grownup things I'm supposed to do to plan for a responsible future. I've always figured, you know, if I end up broke and living under a bridge in my last years, well, f*ck it. I'd rather have a life of adventure and freedom and a crappy final few minutes of the movie than the reverse. Lately, for some reason, I'm having Anxieties about it in a way I haven't before. I'm not sure why, but I do hope it goes away before I do anything drastically responsible.
"I do hope it goes away before I do anything drastically responsible." - LOL
I feel like the collective anxiety is magnified right now, for good reason. What we're doing (I'm not talking about you and me, but systemically) is not sustainable.
See, that's the thing. Nothing I do that would be responsible would actualy be responsible because there's no way to be resopnsible without sacrificing everything in service of it and living a slave life. And that defeats the whole purpose of, well, everything.
I too am dealing with relationship issues and money issues right now. The financial fears coming up at this time make sense because Venus is also about money, not just the love and beauty she is known for. So Venus in Pluto would bring up those concerns and underlying doubts. Thank you Pluto and Venus?? Okay not really, but I do appreciate the comment from Susan about remembering our wealth comes from within. If it wasn't for the P's explaining that so well I would normally have to roll my eyes at that one. But now I'm ready to hear it and have it shift something in me, each time a little deeper.
For me , it really cemented, when I realized the aspect of me as a human, even , is connected to infinite possibilities. It is without doubt in me since I FELT that.
It’s not soggy here, but it’s chilly! My Monday was productive, but that’s not really where it’s at, eh? It feels like I tell myself it’s okay to move forward one step at a time, but I’m holding back a deluge of emails, tasks - things I wish I had done already, responded to and so on. I can only be where I am. Radical acceptance. My wealth comes from within. Thank you, Susan. Love to you, Nora, & your family as you navigate these waters.❤️
Thanks for this article. I love that picture of Jon and the furry babies. Money issues are up for me as well, but they tend to stay up. It is something that I’ve been working on for years. Unfortunately it’s the one major issue I can’t seem to feel okay within myself about. I know that I too, am prioritizing, some freedom and happiness over practicing law and earning more income. And every day I’m thinking should I try to get a full-time in the workplace job instead of my part-time remote two jobs so we can get out of debt. I’m hoping this year to get some clarity around my future earnings and what my work will look like and as you said, it doesn’t help that we are living through late stage capitalism and everything costs so very much.
I think this week I’m trying to go within more or have been going within more and considering how I’m feeling, the future, and the future of our planet. I think that I am living in a constant state of anxiety or fear of the future when I know I need to focus more on the present.
I’ve also been thinking of you and the fact that you are deciding where to move in all of the flooding you’re getting. Sending you and Jon and the fur babies love.💜
We are all good here at our house and neighborhood as far as the rains go. It's been pretty perfect for most of the Ojai Valley. Other places have had it way worse.

Such wisdom, thank you
❤️ well, entirely inspired by Nora's post.
But may I shamelessly and inappropriately invite you to also be part of our little community on the red abbess?

Thank you for steering me to this.
