  • Turquoise Ring

    Sacred Stories

    Separated from her husband, adjusting to parenting her son alone, nervous about finances, especially now missing the support of her mother, she went for a hypnotherapy session.

    “Do you have a piece of jewelry from your mom?” the therapist asked.

    She told the therapist, “Strange you should ask. I have my mom’s turquoise ring, but in the recent chaos of life, I have not been able to find it.”

    During the session, a memory related to the ring surfaced. She had been suffering with a ligament issue in her thumb. It was not healing. She put her mother’s ring on, and within one day, her thumb was healed. She knew the ring would show up and everything would be OK…

    Later that evening, she sent a photo to the therapist, with this message, “Look what I found!”

  • Found Dog!

    Sacred Stories

    Out for a bike ride, she met a woman who had a small dog on a leash.

    “Do you recognize this dog?” the woman asked.

    Stopping, she straddled her bike. The dog had been found the day before. The woman was out walking the neighborhood streets just looking for anyone who knew something.

    She snapped a photo of the dog, jotted down the woman’s contact information, and promptly put up a post on the local Pet-Lost-and-Found Facebook page. Very quickly this sweet little fella was recognized and returned.

    Had she not changed her route that day, she would likely have never made that connection. Whether we realize it or not, our paths are being guided. You have to love a happy ending!

  • Timely Delivery!

    Sacred Stories

    It was such a gift that someone was there to perform CPR on her husband when he collapsed. The most significant synchronicity was that the mail carrier who saved his life was running two hours later than usual, plus it was her first day back on the job after two weeks off!

  • Referrals

    Sacred Stories

    At 2:08 pm, she sent a text message to a colleague she had not seen in almost a year:

    “Sent a referral your way for relationship counseling.”

    At 3:03 pm, this was the reply to her text:

    “Oh my goodness. I just uttered your name to a client in my 2-3 appointment, and looked at my phone to refer someone to you just now. Yours was the first on my text messages! She will be calling you. The universe is incredible.”

    Whatever else we know about life, we certainly can appreciate the connections that weave us together, can’t we….

  • Barred Owl

    Sacred Stories

    Traveling to visit a friend in Florida, she missed the road and ended up on a two-track where she had a surprise encounter with a barred owl.

    This visit turned out to be their last; her friend passed away before they would be together again.

    Walking on the beach at home, she came upon a most unusual find: a dead barred owl. She was instantly reminded of the owl she had seen on the way to visit her friend, and she recognized this communication through nature.

  • Era of Peace

    era of peace

    She had driven out-of-state to attend the seminar.

    Settling into their seats, waiting for the seminar to begin, she told her companion, “Last night I had a dream that we got here and there were people here we knew. In the dream, I thought it was actual people we knew, but when I woke up I realized it was that, in reality, we know everyone at the soul level.”

    The woman seated directly in front of her turned around and said, “I had the same dream!”

    “Where are you from?” they both asked. They were from the same state, about thirty minutes away from one another. They soon discovered they knew several people in common.

    The seminar began.

    After the break, returning to their seats, seeing faces more clearly, her companion realized they had previously met!

    From Patricia Cota-Robles’ website, the words about the seminar seem significant, too:

    We are in the midst of a monumental Awakening that is taking place within the heart and mind of every man, woman, and child on Earth. This is true whether a person is consciously aware of it or not.

  • Date with Destiny?

    A couple in his wife’s class was bringing an out-of-town friend to the bike ride. “He rides your class,” they told him. “It would be great if you two can ride together, since he will not know anyone.” As it turned out, they did not connect.

    Nothing could have prepared him for the events of that Century bike ride. Just seven miles into the ride, the rider in front of him crashed hard, tumbling head-over-heels several times before landing against a fence.

    A handful of shocked riders (including an ER nurse) were the only ones at the site of the crash. They administered CPR while waiting for the EMTs to arrive. The gravely injured man had to be airlifted out, and later was pronounced dead. He was 62, and had just retired.

    All but one other of those who had been at the scene opted to give up on the ride. They were just too shook up to go on.

    “My wife is riding the short route, but she will be working SAG (support and gear) until 3:00. We came in one car. I would just have to sit and wait for her. I may as well ride,” he said.

    “I came with friends who are doing the same thing. I may as well ride, too,” the other man added.

    Introducing themselves, they discovered they were the two who had been intended to meet and ride together….

    As the nurse picked up her bike to load it onto the SAG vehicle, one single, beautiful, flower was perfectly poised in the spokes of her wheel.
