My “Two-Minute” Video for this Week: Big News: Tristan Wallace Bredeson is on the Planet!

BIG NEWS!!! Our new grandson is here!!! Tristan arrived 3 ½ weeks early on July 31, letting us know exactly who is in charge of his plan. We’re all excited to welcome a new little soul into our family and into Mother Earth’s family. His arrival might not have followed his Mom & Dad’s plan but he is showing them who is boss right from the start. We will all be learning from this little one!
Tristan’s due date was in the Sun sign of Virgo but he chose to be a Leo, like Mimi & Papa (Rosemary and Richard). We celebrated our mutual birthday on Saturday, August 2 with 120 other entrepreneurs at the Red Elephant Stand, Speak & Profit Event. Tristan’s birth on Day 1 and our birthdays on Day 3 of the conference made it an event-full conference!
Did you know that babies choose their birth dates and times? They are working with Mother Earth and the Universe to arrive with just the resources they need to live their Life Purpose – that’s what the astrological birth chart outlines for them. They arrange to have all the help they need and the chart reflects this. Many other systems of self-knowledge also reflect the child’s soul’s intentions –numerology, Scientific Hand Analysis of the handprints. This is true for you, too. Have you looked at the resources you brought in with your birth? Your astrological chart? Your numerology? Your handprints? These tools help you to understand your challenges, your gifts, your purpose.
Another way to get some info about your soul’s intentions is to have a reading where we contact your guides and angels and ask them to outline what you need to know for your personal growth at this time. This is a good thing to do for yourself around your birthday. What do you need to know for your coming year? And, since it’s MY BIRTHDAY on August 2 (also my husband’s) I’m extending the Special Offer so that more people can celebrate with me by learning about themselves.
You can schedule a reading to get a message from your guides, talk to a loved one, or get some questions answered and receive guidance for your next step. Here’s where to request your reading: Add to Cart The reading can be in person (in Severna Park, Maryland), on the phone or via videoconference from anywhere in the world. I look forward to sharing my birthday celebration with you!
Every birth is a blessed event. We’re excited about the addition to our family! Hadn’t planned to include that announcement here 3 weeks early but ‘this or something better’ – we get to meet our Tristan earlier than planned!
Have an event-full week for yourself!

We can plan. We can organize. We can expect. And then Life Happens.
Have you ever had a plan, had everything organized down to the tiniest detail, and set your expectations on that plan working out exactly as you planned it? And have you had the experience of having little or big glitches shift things out of Plan A?
We have all had this experience. We THINK we are in charge of everything but the Universe sometimes (or often) has a different plan and guess who succeeds?
This isn’t about whether or not you should develop a plan of action to accomplish something. It’s good to have a plan. But do you become so invested in YOUR plan that you forget the ‘this or something better’ part of your request to the Universe? There is a value in learning to go with the flow.
We saw this with the birth of our grandson. His parents had Plan A, Plan B, Plan C and the baby decided to be born on HIS schedule, the way HE wanted to come into the world, with HIS CHOSEN astrological birth chart. He was born the day that a surprise baby shower had been planned for his Mommy. The surprise was his appearance in the world 3 ½ weeks early!
What plans have you developed that have seemed to go awry? How do you react when that happens?
Remember that the formula is:
Event happens. Then you React. And then you CHOOSE how you will respond.
Event (Plan seems to go awry). What is your REACTION? Anger? Upset? Depression? Denial? So many different emotions can arise and they can stem from previous experiences, even from your childhood. Reactions start at the unconscious level. But your RESPONSE is chosen consciously.
Do you allow your reaction to dictate your response? Or do you hit the pause button and give yourself a chance to consciously choose how you will respond? This is how you live a conscious life.
Babies choose how and when they will come into the world. Most of us accept that they have a plan of their own. But what about other plans that don’t go the way you want them to, or planned them, or expected? What if another person interferes with your plans? What do you do then?
Remember that you CHOOSE how to respond. You can choose to get upset and to stay upset but that isn’t a very resourceful place to be. Even if you do get upset, you can decide to respond by figuring out a new plan, to go with the flow.
Do you plan differently in your work than at home? Are you flexible in the workplace to get along with others but you are rigid at home because you want things to be just the way you intend for them to be? Notice if you operate differently and then ask yourself, ‘Why?’ Sometimes it is easier to adjust plans in the workplace because you are not emotionally invested in them and you are resourceful when you are in ‘work mode.’ But when you are at home, with the family or in a social setting, you might have stronger expectations that you have control over your life. Can you go with the flow? Are you willing to work on Plan B or Plan C?
If you are the opposite – going with the flow outside of work but expecting everyone around you at work to line up with your plan – what could you gain by adding some flexibility to your methods? What if Plan A was the goal but Plan B was also OK?
Think about this the next time you decide that your plans must go exactly as you arranged them. Those creative babies might have a mind of their own!
This or something better.

OK, it is not quite our birthday month! But when I have to share my birthday with my husband (and my brother-in-law) I really have to get my time in! And the sun is in Leo after all! So, I am celebrating a day early starting July 31 this year!
I am extending my offer for a very special “Reading with Rosemary” through all of August. Go here to purchase.
And every day is your birthday; make your choices and celebrate!
What fun we’re having on our trip to Florida! We are visiting family and friends along the way before we get to Orlando. Will we see you at the Red Elephant event, “Stand, Speak and Profit” there? I won tickets for us to attend this event and so it precipitated a drive south and some important visits along the way. I hope to connect with people and information that will make the next event we present to be the best it can be.
We celebrated the New Moon in Leo on Saturday, July 26 at 6:42 pm Eastern Daylight Time. If you have attended a Possibilities Playshop you can check your Playbook to see what your theme is for this New Moon cycle. If you haven’t attended the Playshop yet, we’ll be announcing the next one shortly.Pay attention to your intentions for this New Moon.Leo energy is powerfully sent to us via both the Sun and Moon at this time. Take some time to reflect on your purpose and how you can move forward in manifesting that purpose in the world. What helpers do you need? What new insights can you gain? Jupiter is giving us a chance to expand our visions and take advantage of great opportunities. Keep your eyes and heart open!
At The Oracle Speaks Event last week The Divine Feminine gave us some great guidance about Children, Compassion and Crystals, all focused through the lens of Self-Love. This was the Leo event and we’ll be offering The Oracle Speaks Events at least once during every Sun Sign throughout the year. In these events I channel The Divine Feminine and there is always great wisdom and guidance for living a Conscious Life.
If you weren’t able to join us, you can get the audio recording here and listen to this important message. Link to Purchase. When you participate live, you get to ask your questions, general or personal, and you can join us in person or via the internet. Watch for the Virgo event!
Tomorrow’s post is a video clip from last week’s event so that you can hear what The Divine Feminine started teaching about crystals. They gave us some more information on crystals in last Friday’s post. Is it time you paid more attention to crystals and how they can help you in your life?
Hope you are enjoying your Summer and that you are giving yourself time for Self-Love and Play! Celebrate Leo and keep roaring!

A message from The Divine Feminine about Crystals:
“Dear Ones,
The Crystal Kingdom on Earth contains many molecules that have come to Earth from other parts of the Cosmos. These molecules are carriers of multi-dimensional wisdom whose time has arrived to be shared with the people of the Earth.
Not all people alive at this time are ready to hear the Wisdom of the Worlds as transmitted by these crystals, and, so, they will deny the value or, indeed, even the idea of crystals as messengers. They will dismiss crystals as ‘new age fads’ or ‘just fancy rocks.’ When you hear this from a person, or if you feel this yourself, know that this attitude comes from a fear of the challenge of personal growth. If you are connecting to these words then, Dear One, you are ready for personal growth through a personal relationship with the Crystal Kingdom.
We will not give you here a compendium of theories about crystals and their physical, spiritual or emotional properties. There are many sources for material on these topics. We will, however, tell you here how you are to interact with crystals to gain the most benefit from them.
To begin with, the crystals that are available to you have traveled to you from many distant locations on Planet Earth as well as some that traveled to Earth fairly recently from beyond her atmosphere. All of these crystals, whether they began on earth or are sourced from elsewhere, are the Crystal Children of Mother Earth.
Crystals carry in them energies given to them by Mother Earth, either from her core or through her atmosphere. Just as a human baby became ‘a human’ by taking its first breath of Mother Earth’s atmosphere, so, too, did crystalline structures that came from elsewhere in the Cosmos become Children of Mother Earth when she kissed them as they traveled through her atmosphere. The crystals that have grown within Mother Earth are being birthed into the service of her human children as they are appearing above ground to work with Mother Earth’s human children.
This work with humans is to help them grow in their understanding of themselves and of how the Cosmos works.
In your home, place crystals where you feel they want to be. Choose crystals by using your intuition, by paying attention to how you feel when you hold a crystal or view a picture of it. Notice if your first impression is that a certain crystal ‘appeals’ to you, or that you keep finding yourself being drawn to it, or picking it up and not wanting to put it down.
Choosing a crystal is the first step.
Choosing where to place the crystal is the next step. Do not criticize those who would use a crystal ‘for decorative purposes only.’ They may not know or appreciate the deeper properties of the crystal but it will share its benefits with them even if only at an unconscious level.
If you are ready to connect with, to communicate with a crystal, then hold it in your hand or place it near/on your body and dialogue with it. Learn what its message is for you. Be aware that it may take several visits to get the complete message transmitted and that there might be additional messages from the crystal at a later date.
The crystal will let you know where to place it. If you feel that you haven’t received any information about placement, then set it down wherever you choose. It will be the right place. And be prepared to move crystals around when you feel like doing so.
There are many theories about clearing crystals and we would tell you to choose whatever method feels right to you.
At another time we will teach you about crystal grids and their energy.
Go now and learn from your crystals.
And So It Is.”

This throwback video is only back to July 13. Here is a clip of Rosemary’s Oracle Speaks Event when she channeled The Divine Feminine. This is a short, but complete piece of the message on how best to set boundaries. Enjoy!
PS: The entire recording, video or audio, of The Oracle Speaks Event is available on my website:
I want to begin my comments with Rosemary’s ending to her Exploration:
This is important 21st Century work for each human being. Love yourself. Be Who You REALLY Are. Be the Light. Write your own story.
…and create your family; “we are family”! This is a lesson I have learned and continue to learn from Rosemary. It started over 30 years ago (we celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary yesterday!). We came together with kids; Rosemary had a daughter and I had two sons. From the very beginning we made a conscious choice, and from then on a conscious and valiant effort, to blend and create a “nuclear” family of the five of us. And it worked. Today our 30-something kids could not be closer if they were blood-related. We are family!
And we each have our extended families. I met Rosemary’s at her sister’s wedding. The vibe is dominated by Italian ancestry; my Norwegian/Swiss (northern) ancestry was welcomed in with open arms and big hugs. My cold northern blood melted right in to this southern love. Meanwhile my family remains pretty much in tact in Wisconsin – that Norwegian blood just likes it cold! I love them, visit (in the summer/fall) now and then. We are family!
And then we have our ultra-extended family that spans the globe from here north into Canada, east to Europe, south to Australia, west to China. We have grandchildren here in Maryland, another on the way in California. And then there are our adopted grandchildren/god-children spread all over from England to Florida and far beyond. Our younger friends with children just seem to know: we are family! (Of course, the children know it immediatedly!)
We are about to begin a fun trip to Florida for a work-related conference in Orlando next week. On the way (we are driving) we will stop in Raleigh, NC to visit with our youngest child, catching up with that part of the nuclear family and his delightful girl friend. Then it is on to Brunswick, GA to visit long-term, but not seen in years, friends; and even though there is a serious back injury in the picture here, we are compelled to spend the night – “you are family.” Then it is on to Tampa to visit more friends and one of our adopted grand/god-children. After the Orlando conference it is on to Amrit Ashram to visit a nephew and Gurudev. We are family!
And my story goes on. It is still unfolding. We have more family members to meet; they are out there waiting for us. As Rosemary says:
…write a NEW story! You have permission. You are Lady or Lord Creator of Your Own Truth! Love yourself enough to be the creator of a fine life story. Be the ancestor of a legacy that makes you proud and smiling today.
Be the love. Be the light. Go meet your family; they are out there waiting for you! Be the ancestor of a legacy! And remember:
We are family!

CRYSTALS AND YOU – Richard’s Commentary
July 30, 2014 — RichardAs I write this we are in Florida visiting friends on our way to a conference in Orlando. The items we brought, combining housewarming (our friends moved here recently) and host gifts, are crystals. In fact our son, who has been collecting crystals since he was two, sent a special quartz crystal he had found in Raleigh, NC, to our “adopted grandson”, aged 6, as a special connection. We are all tapping into the “wisdom of the worlds.”
Here is the paragraph from Rosemary’s channeled message from The Divine Feminine that I most resonate with:
Not all people alive at this time are ready to hear the Wisdom of the Worlds as transmitted by these crystals, and, so, they will deny the value or, indeed, even the idea of crystals as messengers. They will dismiss crystals as ‘new age fads’ or ‘just fancy rocks.’ When you hear this from a person, or if you feel this yourself, know that this attitude comes from a fear of the challenge of personal growth. If you are connecting to these words then, Dear One, you are ready for personal growth through a personal relationship with the Crystal Kingdom.
Many people are awakening to this special and “personal relationship.” We have another friend in the Annapolis area who hosts a crystal grid and sing bowls meditation once each month. These experiences are some of the most powerful meditation experiences I have had recently. And I am pleased and impressed by the number of young people who are attending. Several help with the hundreds of pounds of crystals set up each month. They are clearly ready for the “personal relationship.”
What does this mean exactly? I can’t explain it with rational thought or logical words. These are feelings. There is a vibrational experience and sensibility that works on trans-rational levels. It could be loosely compared to intoxication, but it is a trip of the mind/soul/spirit rather than a chemical trip of the body. And there is a Universe of “information” available on these trips. I am still processing my last experience with the crystals.
Do you have a crystal with which you resonate? If so you can simply sit with it. Hold it in any way that feels comfortable. Let your mind drift. Follow your breath. Then begin to gently tune in to the crystal. This is usually a very subtle process; a sensitive attunement with the energy radiating from the crystal. It is a delicate “listening” experience…listen with your entire person, especially inside. Tune out the five senses and “listen” with your heart. After a little while set the crystal aside and record what you experienced.
If you need to find a crystal to discover a “personal relationship” you can simply locate a “rock shop” in your area; you can find very inexpensive and yet powerful crystals almost anywhere these days (the Crystal Kingdom is seeking these relationships). Go into the shop in this “listening” mode described above. First sense the overall feeling of the shop. If it feels dead, low energy, or if you sense any negativity from the shopkeeper, choose another shop. But in my experience it is rare for a shop with crystals to have negative energy. To find “your” crystal simple scan the collection in the sensitive mode, listening with your heart. The crystal will call out to you!
Of course, if none of this makes any sense to you, you may not be ready for this “personal relationship.” And that’s OK too! We are all growing and developing at our individual rates. Remain in flow and patient!
For all of us, in all stages of development, the Crystal Kingdom is blessing us with their energy and messages!
