333 - Divinely Guided



Well, it certainly didn't take long for this to show up for me. Not even 5 minutes.

I used to hate the number 33. It was a very depressing time for me at that age. Then when I was 40, my perception completely changed. It was when I learned that 33 is a sacred number (refer to what it says right below the picture). There's more to its meaning than that because it refers to the single digit number 3.

I chose this number and then it chose me (it came to me quickly) because a few people have talked about them seeing the number 333 several times today.

Master Number 22 - The Master Builder

I began noticing the number 22 in 1997. Fast forward to today and it's as though the number has been following/guiding me through out the years. Because of its mystic nature, I don't know if it's possible to give a clear explanation of it's meaning for my life when it's not in my numerology chart. I do, however, take into account the meanings that it has been given and then I accept what resonates with me and discard the rest.

Everyone has a story. So, if you are interested in numerology and synchronicity, remember that ultimately, your experiences and perceptions are yours and yours alone. As are mine. Our stories and our experiences will be unique, and yet they can be similar. The deeper you go, the more unique they'll be.

A few years ago I took the task of writing something about the Master #22 on the 22nd of each month on my blog. There were only a few months when I didn't have anything to post. It was highly energizing and a lot of fun. Since this year is more than half over, I'm not going to commit to repeating that task. Now, I will post something when I am inspired to do so. New experiences will lead me to make that decision.

For today, though, I do want to share something from an expert, which I am not. Some of what she wrote is new to me. Some that I had never run across online or thought of myself. Such as the master numbers being in conflict with each other. It makes it more interesting and therefore, more reason to study.

Below is a snippet of the article by Felicia Bender, The Practical Numerologist

"Your Life’s Purpose:

To become a master teacher and change people’s lives in a practical and tangible way.

The Master Number brings with it an intensity that is undeniable and “ups the ante” substantially. I’ll say that you’ve come with a higher spiritual purpose, no matter how you might define that. The Master Numbers bring with them a higher vibration.

So what does that mean for you on a practical level? It means that you’re here to “master” your life. It means that you have some significant strengths and more intense challenges. The bottom line for you: It’s not easy!"

Seek and Find

Spirit led me as I photo journeyed my way through Instagram. With no specific focus nor destination, I continued searching and reading. I had no plan to post anything on my blog and yet, here I am.

I don't normally know immediately what the message is when it comes from the Universe as a synchronicity (as this is). What I do know for sure is, to pay attention to all meaningful coincidences that feel connected to each other. I use the word "feel" because that's how I experience synchronicities. There is an energy through each sign/symbol whether it's an object (a feather, for instance), a number (or a series of numbers), an unexpected encounter with a stranger or someone I haven't seen/spoken to in a long while...and many more examples.

I've seen this quote many times in the past 7 years. I must say, this time it is different. This time there is a message for me, synchronistically. I just don't know what that message is right now. I've learned that the messages sent by the Universe (God, Spirit, angels) don't always come quickly. Some take much longer. Rather than minutes, hours, or days, they may take weeks or months.

If you're not a patient person, this is a good way to practice developing patience. Ideally, the best way to wait for the message(s) to be revealed to you is to let go and flow and remain in a state of flow as much as possible. What hinders us from being in that state more often than we do? One culprit is the ego-self. The ego-self is that which wants to keep us away from our True Self (soul). Ego (E.G.O.= Edging Out God) thrives on chaos and conflict. Just look at the president.

I have no right to judge because that's been my experience for so long, I've lost track of the time. It's been pretty dark in my world. So dark that many times I doubted there was any light left in me at all.

Oh. I just read the quote again and reminded myself of the wall I had been slowly building around my heart. I'm not ready nor willing to tear it down yet. It's not complete, but it's getting closer to being so.

I've built and torn down so many walls around my heart, it's become like second nature. This is the strongest one yet. So strong that it'll take more than one miracle to even begin to release one brick, which may be how the wall falls down. Brick by brick. Crumbling as they're broken on their way down, to a heart that has been broken over and over again.

Just an fyi...some hearts are never repaired. Some take just so much until there is nothing left and too much damage has been done. I don't want to be one of them.

The Master Leads

Wat Xieng Ngeun

True words aren't eloquent;
eloquent words aren't true.

Wise men don't need to prove their point;
men who need to prove their point aren't wise.

The Master has no possessions.
The more he does for others,
the happier he is.

The more he gives to others,
the wealthier he is.

The Tao nourishes by not forcing.
By not dominating, the Master leads.

~Lao Tzu~

Description of Love

Staring At The Sun

A true lover is proved such by his pain of heart;
No sickness is there like sickness of heart.

The lover's ailment is different from all ailments;
Love is the astrolabe of God's mysteries.

A lover may hanker after this love or that love,
But at the last he is drawn to the KING of love.

However much we describe and explain love,
When we fall in love we are ashamed of our words.

Explanation by the tongue makes most things clear,
But love unexplained is clearer.

When pen hasted to write,
On reaching the subject of love it split in twain.

When the discourse touched on the matter of love,
Pen was broken and paper torn.

In explaining it Reason sticks fast, as an ass in mire;
Naught but Love itself can explain love and lovers!

None but the sun can display the sun,
If you would see it displayed, turn not away from it.

Shadows, indeed, may indicate the sun's presence,
But only the sun displays the light of life.

Shadows induce slumber, like evening talks,
But when the sun arises the "moon is split asunder."

In the world there is naught so wondrous as the sun,
But the Sun of the soul sets not and has no yesterday.

Though the material sun is unique and single,
We can conceive similar suns like to it.

But the Sun of the soul, beyond this firmament,
No like thereof is seen in concrete or abstract.

Where is there room in conception for His essence,
So that similitudes of HIM should be conceivable?

Poetry by R. Tagore & Hafiz - A Cosmic Lover's Choice

I've recently been having quite the adventure which has repeatedly blown my mind. And yet I remain perplexed at the mystery and wonder of it all. Do I dare say it's a cosmic lover's adventure? Whatever it is, it has brought me out of a darkness that I had begun to think was eventually going to show me death's door.

And yet here I am.

I first became aware of the passionate poetry of Rabindranath Tagore and Hafiz about 6-1/2 years ago. And perhaps it's due in large part to this cosmic journey of love that it's able to reach the deepest recesses of my Being.

Soul penetration.

"Love is an endless mystery, for it has nothing else to explain it." ~ Rabindranath Tagore

"Stay close to any sounds
that make you glad you
are alive." ~ Hafiz

"Love adorns itself;
it seeks to prove inward joy by outward beauty." ~ Tagore

"I have estimated the influence of Reason upon Love and found that it is like that of a raindrop upon the ocean, which makes one little mark upon the water's face and disappears." ~ Hafiz Nonduality.com

I chose only those which feel good to a cosmic lover.

Love and Synchronicity,

Diana
