A couple years ago, especially after visiting Ireland, England, and Scotland (on our Sacred Celtic Journey with Patricia McGivern), I found myself using symbols daily in one way or another—mostly as my signature in social media comments.

Why?
Perhaps due to the spiral symbols of Knowth and Newgrange informed me sooo much (and reconnected me to the Reiki power symbol I use when sending love and healing vibes to someone (or myself). Or because of my natural spiral curly hair! Ha!
Spirals



Some of you remember I treated myself to this energetic Celtic pendant that I have worn everyday since I bought it in Dublin, Ireland. That’s when we took our second trip to Ireland (a few months after the first trip), because I had won the Newgrange lottery to go into the chamber for Winter Solstice 2019—also, by the way, the last days the public has been allowed in the chamber!

Now, since I may never get back to Scotland again, I have Connected with a wonderful new friend who lives in Edinburgh Scotland and makes these beautiful pieces: Enya James.


Enya, kind soul she is, also included a bracelet! you can follow her on Instagram and Facebook too!


Churches
Today, I was cleaning a PartyLite church I had bought from my daughter (back when she used to sell PartyLite stuff), and the thought hit me:
“I don’t even like most church buildings or temples, etc because WE humans ARE THE CHURCH!”
So, why don’t I just clean up this statue = graven image and give it away?
Hmmm.
And I sat with this thought while I went back to work on some documentation.
A couple hours later, a thought (or Aha moment) dropped into my mind:
“Because it reminds me of my daughter, my past experiences while attending the church ⛪️ of my youth with my family, my grandfather and uncle building churches, AND the chapel at Rosslyn!”
I will let it go. And I will know the right time for me to do so. And I will gift it to someone with lots of love attached, instead of my current vibration of, “I don’t like church buildings.”
You may remember some of my previous church rants/posts like this one. Enough said about that.
I actually have more recent notes about stuff I just learned that also pisses me off about how some church buildings are built by the congregants financial contributions (and hands on TIME), but then when the building is SOLD, the head church or corporate church or whatever you want to call it, KEEPS ALL THE MONEY!!! Grrr. S
“Sheila, quit your bitching!”—is what I have to tell myself. All those contributions of money and time were given freely of the people as a tithe or service to God. But then what does the world church do with the money? Grrr! “Sheila, Let it Go.” ❤️🦋🌀〰️🔥🙏☯️



It ALL belongs to God.
Right.
And Omniscience SEES ALL.
God will deal with the money grubbers.
Okay.
Hmmm
Blessed BE.
It’s not up to me to resolve the injustices of the world. Hopefully, those churches will feed the hungry and clothe the naked. God knows they don’t want to house them (in their locked churches). ❤️🙏🤦
Perhaps the stones are more my “church” anyway? Stonehenge sure Connected me. Inner heaven to the peace on Earth (during my meditation there). And I am eternally grateful. ❤️🦋🌀〰️🔥🙏☯️

When I first started doing Reiki 30 years ago, I did not think much of the symbols. I didn’t think they worked. I have long since changed my mind about them and the power that symbols old.

I just so happened to have written the following to someone on another platform who posed a question about symbols tonight that I will share:
I am drawn to seashells, snails, ferns, and anything fibonacci (fractal) related. As to me it proves Intelligent Design. I am drawn to symbols of the spirals, especially the neolithic triple spiral engravings (glyphs) on the stones of Knowth and Newgrange in Ireland.
I am drawn to gnomes, dragons, Celtic mythology, caves, waterfalls, giants, faeries, moss, and trees. I gind the trees or root systems of trees are especially fascinating.
30 years of Reiki! Wow! Wonderful, Brenda!
