A Blessing of a Car
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. I guess I’ll have to be nicer to people who drive luxury cars, now that my daughter has one, albeit a vintage car. Especially since I got rid of my so-not-me Mercedes almost 2 years ago, I’ve had a lot of disdain for other people…

Something Real? Uranian Relationships
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. I must have tapped into someone today, because the gamut of emotions and how fast I moved to and through each one was phenomenal and they weren’t really my own emotions. I recognize that, and it’s important that I do so I can distinguish and…

Reconnections and Summaries
Mercury in retrograde has a way of bringing back people from my past. This one certainly did. A woman who was my best friend in college has reconnected with me. I’ve seen her only once or twice in the past 20 years, and I think the last time was about 16 years ago. We have…

Positive Exchanges
For the past 10 days, Shannon’s been stalking a 1986 BMW. She’s had good feelings about the car. She’s burned a candle or two. She’s done her research, too, checking out the Vehicle Identification Number, its maintenance history, online forums by same year and same model owners. The car itself seemed to call to her.…

Shields Up!
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. Twice now, I’ve passed a traffic accident where people died and I felt the energies so intensely. I knew, just knew. Today, I left work early to take Shannon to the bank to get cash to buy a car. I got caught in a storm,…

Nothing In Life Is Certain Except….
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. It’s said that nothing in life is certain except for death and taxes. Let’s add rising insurance costs to that. Yes, I just got my projected property insurance bill for the house (not including on my car plus whatever clunker Shannon gets). The news has…

Do Locations Push and Lure?
Just as I’m feeling a strong push away from the town I have lived in since 1985—hurricanes, thefts, vandals, the prospect of jobs leaving the area, few or no remaining friends here, my girls wanting to go elsewhere—I’m also feeling a strong pull toward Central Florida. Toward what, I don’t know, but there seems to…

Meditation, Pre-Occupation, and Sexy Dream Men
This meditation was different. In so many of the others, I’m aware, looking around, and so intent on what everyone else is doing. More out of curiosity and eagerness for knowledge than fear or judgment. In this meditation, I’m the one who’s preoccupied, barely aware of what’s going on around me. From the Bookshelf Rite…

Did You Feel That?
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. I’m a nervous empath today. I don’t like this feeling. Something’s going on today, something that built up to a fever pitch around 3 PM. It’s still going strong. But I don’t know what. It doesn’t affect any changes today. I know that much. From…

Turnaround Is Fair
Every so often, this happens, and I have to wonder. Am I being fair? Should I give someone another chance? While helping with a special project this week, I spent more time than expected with three different men, all single. They laughed—genuinely—at my jokes, chatted openly, complimented this and that. Dropped a few hints to…

Ace of Cups?
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. I’m not spending much money these days, but when I took the girls shopping tonight for school clothes, I indulged in a couple of new, er, bras. No leather or fur this time—just luscious laces. I’ve always had a bit of a love affair with…

Blown Away
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Curves. This note accompanied a mix CD, a gift from my daughter, and quite possibly the most touching thing I have ever read in my life. Or heard. I love the way the music goes from somber to…light and Disney and optimistic and so full of…
