The Miracle of Coincidence Part II: Wildflowers from Outer Space
This
is the second part of thetwo articles about opening your channels of creativity
in order to allow miracles to occur.
Many
years after the Coincidence, I was no longer in real estate and had begun working
at a local metaphysical book store. A whole new world had opened to me, as I was
exposed to new ways of thinking through reading the books, talking to the people
who frequented the store, and listening to my co-workers. During
that period of time, The Artist's Way - a book based on a twelve-step program
to help blocked creatives get unblocked - became very popular. Workshops based
on The Artist's Way were everywhere, it seemed. Luckily a local counselor/therapist
was offering one of the workshops and I quickly signed up. The
exercises in the class got me started on a creative project with my Coincidence.
One of the comforters was rarely used, since it was on the bed in my guest bedroom.
But the other one, which was on my bed, was getting old and worn. I decided that
it needed a bit of an uplift. On
a trip to an artist's supply store I discovered some felt-tip pens that were specifically
to be used on fabric. When the ink dried, it became permanent. "Perfect!" I thought
to myself. "Just perfect for my new project of brightening up my Coincidence comforter."
When I got home with my new tools of creativity, I sat on the bed atop the oldest,
shabbiest Coincidence and spread out my colorful pens. I began by using green
to trace the gently curving line of stitching on the comforter. It was perfect
as a vine on which flowers of my creation could "grow", or be attached. After
I had a good portion of the vine done, I began with the colors. I
had decided that this project was going to be an important tool to open me to
my creativity. So instead of trying to duplicate images I had in my head about
how flowers actually look, I began just creating colorful shapes. Then I added
some different colored shapes to those shapes, and so on. I just let my hands
and fingers move as they wished, and as they did so, the most incredible flowers
appeared. As
I became engrossed in this process, I could almost feel my Crown Chakra, the energy
center of inspiration, opening. I had never in my life experienced such creative
freedom... or such powerful creative energy. I
worked/played with coloring my comforter for weeks until finally it was finished.
When I was complete with it, I threw it over my bed and the title "Wildflowers
from Outer Space" came to me. Delighted with my first truly creative piece of
artwork, I signed and dated it with the year - 1997. Over
the years, the back side of it eventually became worn, so I covered it with beautiful
deep green velvet. To
this day I still have the Coincidence/Wildflowers from Outer Space comforter.
I snuggle up in it when I'm not feeling well - physically and/or emotionally.
I believe that it acquired the healing energy of love, both in the loving gesture
of my friend Ms. C when she gifted me with the Coincidence and during the lovingly
creative process of coloring the comforter with all the beautiful Wildflowers
from Outer Space. The
Wildflowers from Outer Space in all their splendiforous glory: Most
importantly, the gift I received of the Coincidence that turned into the Wildflowers
from Outer Space comforter was the opening of my creativity. Since that time I've
created many unique things including: - PolarBearWear
- polar fleece clothing designed for snowmobiling
- Online
and in-person metaphysical classes
- Stickman
Tai Chi ebooks
- Omnidimensional
Oracles - symbols, books
- Artistic

What
might you create once you open to your creativity? How might you expand upon the
creative energy that you now have?
To help you open to your creativity, here are some of my favorite resources that
were (and continue to be) humungous inspirations that helped me along my paths
of being creative. Perhaps they'll help you find yours: Love, Kathy

A
Magical Mystical Manual Wondrous
Tools to Enhance Your Life
YOU
are a magical, mystical being. You
have talents, abilities, and powers beyond those that you currently are aware
of or believe that you have. The most important of these is your ability to communicate
with your spiritual guidance.
However, because your spirit guides reside in other dimensions it can often be
difficult for them to communicate with you… and you with them. Thus, it's often
necessary to use certain oracles or tools, such as Tarot or a pendulum. Once you
learn how to decode their messages using these tools, communication between you
and your spirit guides becomes almost as easy as calling them on the phone. The
easy-to-understand instructions in this book expand your awareness so you can
quickly recognize and interpret the guidance being shared with you by your sources
of Higher Wisdom. As
you progress through the chapters and explore the exercises in this book, you'll
find yourself opening to new awarenesses about yourself and the many ways you
and your spirit guides are already communicating. And
you'll discover how easy it is to use these tools to help you recognize their
messages and interpret them. Available
