Can you hear me now?
With Sahara dust and fog the morning felt extra cozy. The dust and light show mixed together bringing a variety of colors to the beauty. The dust coming from across the globe reminds us we are all connected.
Although the full moon was hidden behind the clouds, the lunar energy felt strong. The chatty flock of gulls was large today which may mean the winter gulls could return early this year.
Wispy clouds added to the romantic and ethereal feel of the soothing sunrise. An osprey on a boat brings us the message of energy. She said, “I’m not talking but I’m sending a message, can you hear me now? You see, much can be said without actually speaking.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Angel in the sky
WOW! The colors and cloud shapes 30 minutes before sunrise were the star of the sunrise. Can you see the angel on the left flying to the right? The chatty flock flew in with wings and hearts open ready to connect.
The soft wispy clouds, sweet colors, floating angel and gulls came together to remind us to keep our hearts and wings open to soak up the beauty all around.
I’m off to do an Ocean Float, wishing you all a magical day!
Bird’s eye view to know just where to dive in!
The stillness of the morning brought us a serene start to the day. 30 minutes before sunrise Jupiter was visible in the sky with just a few soft pink clouds.
A chatty flock flew in early for bath time and connection. As the sun came up it looked like a golf ball being teed up ready for the long fly down the fairway.
Ospreys flew down the beach in the same flight pattern, spaced apart like a busy airport. One looking at the fish I was near brings us the message today.
He said, “I’m here to remind you to float above your current situation and get the bird’s eye view. You see, a broader perspective can give you new information and help you know just where to to dive in.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

New beginnings come by releasing the past
A boisterous frog choir filled the air waves as I walked to the beach. Pink and white wispy clouds filled with sky transporting us to another world.
Low tide brought another reflective sunrise giving us a heart opening vibe. A chatty flock flew in early to grab a bath and hang out. Perfect waves rolled toward shore with a strong current, hoping just a few pelicans.
After sunrise A squirrel and a mourning dove on the roof came together to bring us our message of the day. The squirrel chirped, “I’m here to remind you to let go, no need to hoard your nuts or anything else for that matter. Trust there is enough.”
The dove said, “I’m a message of new birth, freedom and hope. Together the squirrel and I encourage letting go so you can be free. Let the new beginnings come by releasing the past.”
Wishing you a every beautiful day friends!

safety is a super power
As I walked to the beach I could see Jupiter and Mars in the sky surrounded by a picturesque sky.
When I reached the ocean, the flock of gulls were already gathered ready to get squeaky clean. The pre sunrise sky filled with pink fluffy clouds reflecting on the wet sand.
As the sun came up, the color theme switched to a gorgeous golden glow filling the air with warmth and hope. The wet sand brought us another reflective and stunning artful masterpiece.
After sunrise a mom and baby dolphin were in the lagoon. They bring us the message of nurturing, safety and play. The calf said, “My mom is very nurturing and makes sure I am safe. This combination gives me the courage to be my unique self, relax and play. Providing safety really is a super power.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Lulls are purposeful
A refreshingly cool layer of fog hovered above the shore before the sunrise. Other worldly looking clouds on the horizon soaked up the pastel colors.
Wet sand reflected the majestic sunrise giving us another heart expanding start to the day. Light ray jetted out of the clouds giving us a hopeful vibe.
Surfers waited in the calm and silky ocean brining us the message of enjoying the lull between waves. The waves said, “We encourage you not to confuse the serenity between waves as boredom. You see, the quiet time is purposeful. It’s a time to reflect and rest so you are ready to catch the next wave.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Be open to shifts that help you soar higher
Wow, the sunrise was spectacular! The sun came up snuggle between two clouds creating a light funnel jetting light into the blue sky.
Perfect waves called to the surfers who came from every direction. The ocean was peppered with surfers waiting on a ride.
3 swallow-tailed kites circled above just after sunrise. This was a real treat, the first time seeing them at the beach. They said, “We bring the message of trusting your intuition. Use your inner GPS to follow the path that aligns with our true self. You’ll know because it will feel really good.”
A dragonfly was flying between the kites adding to the message she said, “I’m here to encourage transformation, be open to any shifts that will guide you toward your life’s purpose.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Even when you feel fragile, you are strong
With the absence of a breeze at first light the stillness was palpable. The ocean was clam except for perfect waves rolling toward shore 2 at a time.
Fluffy clouds formed the shape of an other world city hugging the sun as it came up to greet the day. A chatty flock of gulls and a couple egrets flew in for breakfast as the sun came up.
A sand dollar at the edge of the ocean brings us the message today. It said, “I have many messages such as unity, abundance and strength. I am here to remind you that even when you feel fragile, you are strong. I am also a message of abundance of all kinds, reminding you to be open to blessings.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Use your inner grace to flow
The morning started out dark and cozy with a wall of cotton ball clouds soaking up the pretty in pink pre sunrise glow. A chatty flock flew in early ready to get squeaky clean in the warm ocean.
When the sun came up, it lingered to give the ocean a kiss goodbye for the day. Fishing boats headed out in hopes of catching snapper.
After sunrise while standing on the dock, an eagle ray (I think) glided by bringing us a the message of grace and fluidity. She said, “Whether I am glided under water or leaping into the air, I am here to encourage going with the current rather than fighting against it. Harness the current and let the momentum carry you toward your heart’s desires.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

When we feel safe we thrive
Ahhhhh, a pretty in pink first light color show along with a cool breeze gave us a fall like sunrise. A small flock of gulls flew in early with their wings and hearts open.
2 gulls said, “We are here to encourage lifting each other up. You see, we flock together to share the journey and we feel safer when we are together. When we feel safe we thrive.”
The sky art mirrored back on the still water was truly breathtaking. The mirror image of the swirly sky art added to the heart expanding vibe of the day.
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

A snuggly kind of day

Let go so you can soar!
At first light the air was still, the ocean looked like lake Atlantic while the fluffy clouds soaked up soft light. Tide pools reflected the heart opening beauty in the sky. The sun eventually made its way through the clouds to brings us the sweetest bronze light on the calm water.
Pelican Highway traffic was light gliding in both directions over the perfect emerald waves. As they floated by they said, “Use the energy of the waves to make your journey easier. Feel your way to the sweet spot, you’ll know it when you feel supported and things feel easier.”
On the way off the beach I ran into 2 mourning doves who were very chatty. When I asked the one in the photograph what her message was, she tilted her head and said, “I’m a messenger new birth. I also symbolize peace, love and freedom. I’m here to remind you to let go of any anchors so your heart can soar!”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

This moment creates your next moment.
The morning started out extra cozy with cloud cover and minimal color. The colors came to life after the sun made it up from behind the wall of grey clouds.
The clouds reflecting on the tide pools and wet sand were mesmerizing. Egrets came to dance through the water grabbing breakfast.
Pelican Highway looked gorgeous as they floated along the shore above the emerald waves. Dolphins surfed and chased fish, enjoying a few leaps too!
The egrets, pelican highway, and dolphin came together to bring the message of trusting in the timing. They said, “Trust people, places and things are lining up, sometimes it’s happening behind the scenes.”
The egret went on to say, “Stay present in the moment. You see, this moment is creating your next moment. Keep your focus on the here and now and let the magic unfold.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode - Dolphin Impersonates a Shark
Yesterday I had the pleasure of relaxing with M and Charley, 2 male dolphins.
M went to grab a fish in the shallows, when he returned he showed off his best shark impersonation. I think that was his way of saying sure we live in the shark bite capital of the world but we dolphins too!

Loving yourself helps others
Mother Nature did it again, bringing us a magical sunrise using every crayon in the box. First light started with a pretty in pink glow. With the absence of a breeze, the stillness was palpable.
The soft clouds, reflections and beautiful colors created an ethereal masterpiece to start our day. A few gulls showed up to paddle around int he tide pool and get squeaky clean. One of the gulls and a solo egret got together to bring us the message today.
The egret looking at his reflection said, “Go ahead, Love the one you are with, fall deeper in love with yourself. “ A gull sending out ripples with her open wings and heart said, “Yes! I agree with the egret! You see, when you love yourself and keep your heart open, you send out ripples of love to others.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

One step at a time with focus
WOW! 30 minutes before sunrise was truly breathtaking. Pink ribbon shaped clouds stretched across the sky reflecting on the water and wet sand. Soft waves rolled into the tide pool adding textures and depth to the Monet looking sunrise.
When the sun came up surrounded by hugging clouds it stayed for just a few minutes before disappearing behind the veil of soft clouds. The mixture kept the morning cozy and serene.
A handful of gulls came to enjoy bath time while a solo egret looked for breakfast bringing us her message.
She said, “The reason I am such a good hunter is I am deliberate about taking each step with focus. I relax into the present moment and take one step at a time toward my goal.”
