Hidden in Plain Sight: How to Attract What You Want in Life

You can't fool Parent Nature. But she sure can fool you. What a beauty she is -- wowing us with her spacious skies and purple mountains majesty, and taunting us with her tantalizing tapestries of flora, fauna and frolicking creatures. From the spine-tingling glacial lakes of Last frontier to the heart-warming mystical canyons of Arizona, I've intimate several of her better creations. Nature and I have been really intimate. I felt I knew her secrets. Boy, was I wrong!

I admit, I only wanted her for her looks and the way she does me feel. It ne'er occurred to me that Parent Nature has a deeper, much compassionate, protective side. I unnoticed her whispers that she has gifts for me -- treasures much valuable than gold. And I was blind to the clues she scattered on my path.

In my youth, if Parent Nature told me her wild birds could manual me back to a lost path, I'd have felt she was nutty as a squirrel. Knowing that I wouldn't listen to her, she sent a arch sage to get her message through my thick skull. The Native American medicine man asked a simple question: "Did you cognize that rattlesnakes only bite "civilized" folk and leave social group folk alone?" I felt the "crazy" priest had a few rattles loose in his brain. But his words were intriguing. "How could that be?" I wondered. "Why would-be a snake choose to bite several folk and leave others alone?" His derisory claim haunted me.

Unbeknownst to me at the time, this bold assertion propelled my life into a new direction that would-be take me off my better-known map into unmapped territory. Parent Nature was luring me in. I was the cat. She was the nip. She was determined to get my attention!

A Helpful Hawk

My 1st clue to the guiding, caring aspect of Parent Nature occurred once a bird led me back to a hiking trail I'd lost. I'd gotten simply about 50 yards off the path, heading in the wrong direction. Suddenly a bird screeched. Looking up, I spotted a low-flying hawk circling intently over a particular spot. An investigation was in order. Once I arrived at the spot he was focused on, he flew off. Wow! I found myself standing smack in the middle of the lost trail! My winged friend had delivered me back to my path.

Dancing with Danger

Mother Nature had simply begun to arrange my understanding simply about the inner workings of the natural world. She arranged for me to experience security in situations that are ordinarily unsafe for humans. To protect their offspring, wild boar ordinarily attack folk who intrude into their space. Once I astonished a family of 40 wild boar with babies and they were much curious than hostile toward me. A poisonous scorpion crawled harmlessly over my foot without showing any inclination to sting. During a long close encounter of the cunning kind, a pack of coyotes sniffed me, checked me out thoroughly, and then went nonchalantly on their way. And I stomped my foot inside an inch of a nesting rattler -- without triggering a bite or even as a rattle. Now I have the confidence to walk -- and even as sit -- peacefully inside a couple feet of resting rattlesnakes.

Ah, Parent Nature and my "crazy" medicine man -- their ingenious game plan was bearing fruit. The clues I was picking up from my unmapped journey were beginning to form a fresh image simply about how life actually works. I could now see that situations that appear dangerous are not always the case. What else surprises did Parent Nature have in store for me?

The Sorcerous Mystery Tour

Hidden in plain sight is a sorcerous space simply about which native tribes sing -- and "crazy" shamans teach. This place is real, physical and tangible. The core nature of this space explains why birds manual you back to your path and snakes bite several folk and not others. It's a earth of wave energy and attraction. To enter this new land, we need only to truly "see" what's right in front of us.

Are you available for an extraordinary journey of discovery and adventure?

Bugs 'n Bunny

Have you ever been buzzed by a light mosquito hawk who's trying to get you to notice her? Landing next to you, she waits for you to talk or play with her. After several minutes of intimate conversation, you're available to go on your merry way, but the persistent bug circles about you, stopping you in your tracks. She perches on the nearest flower, wanting much interaction with you. Why'd she do that?

Here comes Peter Cony hoppin' down the bunny trail. Once he spots you, are you so highly strung and agitated that he disappears quicker than you can say, "Abracadabra?" Or, are you so relaxed and available that old Pete hangs about to get a bit closer to you?

What does the difference between a creature wanting to hang with you, or get away from you? You do the difference.

Pickin' Up Nice Vibrations

The Beach Boys herbaceous plant simply about it: "Good, good, good, nice vibrations ... giving me excitations." Bugs and bunnies feel nice about folk who give off nice vibes. Once you are in a state of openness and trust, animals feel open and trusting about you. Once you give off fearful or threatening vibes, animals feel fear and either come away or feel vulnerable and defensive. It's up to you what vibration you put out.

Lady mosquito hawk enjoyed bathing in your elfin energy and came back for much intimate interaction. On his 1st visit, Mr. Cony felt the harsh quality of your energy and disappeared. Later, once you were feeling happy, Pete was available to do the Bunny Hop with you.

Attracting Love

Our emotional state affects not only our appeal to insects and animals, but likewise to humans. Else folk respond to our vibration in exactly the same way as bugs and bunnies do. The ambience that attracts wild critters is the same ambience that attracts folk and circumstances to nurture us -- like being beloved or supported. The ambience that attracts a serpent to bite us is the same ambience that attracts folk and circumstances to "bite" us -- like being rejected or betrayed.

Have you detected that once you are in great spirits, your conversations with friends are much fun and clear? Folk want to talk to you in the grocery line or gather about you at activity -- simply like Peter Cony who wants to hang about and soak up your vibes. Or, are you so upset and irritated that folk can't wait to get away from you -- and are looking for an excuse to disappear into a rabbit hole?

Getting the Goodies

When we pay attention, Parent Nature always guides us towards connection, harmony and support. She shows us how our emotional states affect every aspect of our lives. Our vibes determine our security and success in life.

Mother Nature is still having her way with me -- and I keep coming back for more. I'm grateful she sent the "crazy" medicine man whose intriguing question led me to see the earth with fresh eyes and an open heart.
