Today I chanted for a wedding. The wedding was small, about 35 people, and only family members were present. The Uncle of the groom passed away a few years ago after his body rejected his transplanted heart. The family and extended family are very close and his loss was deeply felt. He was a beautiful man.
Today, as the groom walked down the aisle, I thought of his uncle and how much the groom reminded me of him. I had no doubt his Uncle must be there in spirit watching the wedding and know he would have loved the day. I wasn't just remembering him though, I thought I might be sensing something. Over the past few years, I have begun to follow up on some of the things I sense to see if there might be more to the story. So in this case, my continued thought of " Gee, xxxx sure reminds me of his Uncle today" led me to speak to the groom's father. I told him of how I saw his brother in his son today. He told me that his son and his brother both resembled his father.
Hmm. Ok. But...was there more?
So I then went up to the aunt of the groom, who is the widow of the uncle. We have a nice repore together and I know his death has been very difficult for her. Anyway, I mentioned to her how much her nephew reminded me of her husband today. She smiled a knowing smile at me and said: "You know, today happens to be xxx'x birthday".
That was the missing puzzle piece. The nephew and the uncle now shared a special day together, wedding and birthday. I knew logically he would likely be present 'watching" the service, but this was the added layer to the strong connection I was feeling.
This was a reminder that those little "knowing thoughts" can have an interesting explanation but I must be willing to dig a bit deeper to find it.
I have been reading some passenger accounts about the Diamond Princess Cruise ship whip is under quarantine in Japan. 10 people have tested positive for the Wuhan virus and a passenger who disembarked a few days ago and has the virus now is the likely person who spread it.
So the passengers are now quarantined in their cabins and not allowed to leave. It is a 14 day quarantine. They had about 15 hours without any food on day one. of confinement as the food from the ship was suspect. The Japanese government has forebidden smoking of any kind. and those who smoke will have a tough time dealing with nicotine withdrawals. People who have a balcony can use it but those in an inside cabin are stuck there without fresh air or sunlight. Doors can not be opened.
After reading these accounts a song popped into my head and I could not get it out. I knew many of the words but looked it up to make sure I got them all.
It is such a haunting song.
Yep, it was definitely a message. Those poor passengers.
White Bird Performed by It's a Beautiful Day
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
In a golden cage
Alone
Across the long, black road
To the darkened skies
In it's rage
Just sits in her cage
Unknown
Or she will die
Dreams of the aspen trees
With their dying leaves
Turning gold
Just sits in her cage
Growing old
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
The sunsets go
The clouds roll by
And the earth turns old
And the young bird's eyes
Do always glow
She must fly
She must fly
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
In a golden cage
Alone
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
I am bringing up this thread again as it seems timely.
Over the last week, especially the past few days, I have had a sense of heavy anxiety and deep sadness. This is rather unusual for me and the last few times I have noticed this feeling, some major event took place, most recently the Turkish Earthquake. So, last night as this wave of sadness hit again, I went within myself and asked if it was related to me personally or something external. It felt it was not due to something personal and I made a mental note that something likely would be happening in the world soon. It was such a deep sense foreboding.
When I woke up I heard about the Libyan flooding and thought perhaps this was what I was sensing, the despair and grief of over 2,000 deaths and 10,000 missing people. Unfortunately, I sense that this is only part of what I felt.
So, I reached out to many of the moderators here on Jeanne's site and a few other intuitive people I know, to ask if anyone else had been feeling similarly.
Over 8 people were contacted and EVERY SINGLE ONE felt similarily. Some even more intensely than I have been feeling.
OMG! WOW! WTH? Were my firsts thoughts.
None of us have felt any resolution of these feelings yet either. We were also glad to know we were not the only ones feeling this way.
I am aware there is a big planetary thing happening though I don't understand much about it. I am acutely aware of all of the global climate emergency events taking place and likely these issues have something to do with this feeling, yet I believe there is more.
If anyone has anything they would like to contribute on this topic, perhaps you are feeling something similar or perhaps not anything remotely similar, I would love your feedback.
Tagging a few others here, but would love a response from anyone who reads this.
Thanks!

@lovendures I’m back to school now and that’s kept me focused and away from my intuitive tendencies but I’ve felt it a bit around me - I think we’re going to have some hits and turbulence in the coming weeks. I don’t get the sense that it’s any one thing - just a bunch.
I felt overwhelming sadness energy here in NYC on 9-11. Mercury goes stationary on Thursday, direct on Friday. Thoughts and energy are usually heavy when Mercury goes retro and direct. We are universally processing the lessons we are learning and have learned. The good part is that it's over shortly and you'll feel a big release. Sending love.
@lovendures I did, on Sunday. I couldn't shake it. I felt a great sense of loneliness and unease. Totally out of character for me. But I felt like myself on Monday.
@lovendures, I talked to a friend about a month ago, telling her the brightness I've felt would come my way once dad passes, I didn't feel any longer. There's just been this general feeling of blah (not severe like gloom & doom). Her reply was there was just a hump I had to/would get over, and then I'd return to seeing the bright future I've seen for years. I've thought that part of it is the passing of my ex. I have no doubt he's very disappointed in himself over the way he handled this lifetime. He had another chance to deal with some of his karma (especially where I'm concerned-I believe this isn't our first life together) & he just repeated previous mistakes. I'll suddenly feel his regret (in the form of rationalization mixed with a drop of realization) and conflict with his living sisters (i e animosity towards me) and thought that might be what's been causing my unease. But I also find myself a little baffled as I check hurricane forecasts. They seem to be turning away from land which surprises me-like I'm expecting a disaster. I'll readily admit I'm not watching or reading any news as I've got enough on my plate dealing with dad's decline & my youngest's ongoing efforts to deal with his father's passing/estate. So my feelings of natural disaster could be the result of anything happening in the world & I'm not aware since I'm sort of isolating myself right now.
@lovendures I am glad you brought this up! I have been feeling similar lately as well (waiting for a shoe to drop), though I attributed this to my focus on the start of the school year (since my younger daughter had a rough time earlier this year.) I feel strangely shielded, though, like I am grounded and keeping balance as we move through each day, getting more into our routine, which struck me as different.
I also had a series of uneasy/bad dreams over the weekend (about 3 nights or so), which is unusual for me. It was to the point where I would get up in the morning and think, hmmm, why did I have another intense/weird dream? Again, I thought perhaps it was due to the intensity of my feelings towards my personal situation.
Like @cindy, I am checking hurricane forecasts and as you mentioned, seeing the news on the Morocco earthquake and terrible flooding in Libya (and Greece), but that doesn't feel like all of it. I think @dannyboy is onto something in that I feel it may just be a series of events or many things upcoming that we are feeling.
I like what @lawrence said about the planetary influences and hopefully we all feel a release by the end of the week.
@lovendures I have been feeling this way the past week... even had a dream about MTG that had me terribly upset but had to go to work Monday and that blew the details from my brain. She was up to her usual destroy our Democracy antics - then? Good ole Kev announced another impeachment movement amidst the turmoil of shutting down the government over the budget and Tubby Tuberville's obstructions to leadership for our military... and it's all about 🍊💩🦍 's ego and all of them stuck on their rearview mirror views . Last night I dreamt that they just clicked in to place the actions that will bring out the demise of the GQP as we know it ... and feel greatly relieved and happy this am. Had the stray thought ... let them finish and we'll clean up their 💩 easily enough when they have left.
TBS? Would it be ever so much better to be finished with their histrionics and not have to clean up after them? Assuredly... but... unrealistic. We must focus on more important issues while they play out their self implosion and be ready to move forward with a plan for our futures here on this planet while having a clean up crew on standby.
Also had a dream about Vermont... something happening there... but again ... the morning duties faded the details ... I have got to get another notebook and pen to keep by the bed to write these things down ... ones that do not encourage my cats to push off the bedside table 😂
I am thankful to feel lighter and less anxious today.
