Haha I had to hold myself back! But I love the idea of using magic when I clean….might make me actually clean. 😂

This post also reminded me of the power of space clearing. I grew up in a Sikh family, and my parents would hold a 3 day prayer event at our house every year as a sort of end of year blessing for the house and family. It would mean that we'd move all the furniture to make way for guests, and have 3 days of people coming to listen to prayers, food being cooked, and generally have a focus on spiritual practice and the rest of life would be put on hold. Although I wouldn't say I'm religiously practicing myself in the same way, this time had a profound effect on me, and I'd remember that feeling of the house tangibly feeling 'cleansed' and 'reset' after the event was over. It felt like all the stagnant energy had been cleared out, and we all felt ready for a fresh start to the year. It really felt like magic. In many ways, ideas around magic, and prayer / intention / space clearing really do feel like one and the same thing. Now, at the end of December, I go on a mad cleaning and space clearing frenzy, and play lots of spiritual music, and its my 'light' version of what I grew up with. I just ordered this book - excited to dive into the pages!

Because Erika is 42, I have to note that until her birthday, she is the answer to Life!! The UNIVERSE! And EVERYTHING!!! (Vide Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) Ask her to use her power for GOOD.
