How to stay Connected when Everything’s Different

How does one write a newsletter to share plans for the month when everything changes from day to day? As many of us find ourselves instructed by officials to avoid gatherings, stay home, distance ourselves, it’s the distance that feels the most different.

We feel you. Barjon’s is built on connection – with our minds, emotions, spirits, each other, the natural world… The good news is, this is not changed. Rather, the change is only how we maintain our connections.

So this April, Barjon’s Book celebrates connections. Here are the ways we all can maintain our connections in this season of change:

1. Reach out for a quick pick-me-up

Barjon’s Books is available by email daily, and are checking and responding to our voicemail messages regularly at the store number (406) 252 4398.

Be sure to check our website or our Facebook page for the latest information on store hours. Whether or not the store is open to the public, we are more than happy to take orders and arrange a time for a doorside pickup.

Speaking of Facebook, we regularly share inspirational and conversation worthy posts. If you have an uplifting quote or idea, feel free to reach out and share it with us!

2. Let our intuitive readers be your guide

Our reader schedule remains intact, even as store hours change temporarily. Schedule an appointment online, and your intuitive reader will call you at the appointed time.

In addition, renowned psychic medium and long time friend, Sam Herbert has a special offer for phone readings to support you and Barjon’s in this season. We extend a special thank you to Sam for his incredible offer to donate half of his appointment fees to Barjon’s during this time of social distancing to help support our community connections.

3. Buy now, shop later

4. Share some magic

Laura Tempest Zakroff, author of Sigil Witchery, created a sigil of Needs Met in one of her classes. With her permission, we share it here with you, and for you.

She writes:

This is a shared magic sigil. You are welcome to use this sigil however you see fit that is in alignment with the intent of the sigil. Ideas for use:
– use on altar for ritual work to support the community
– place on candles (basic white candles are fine, but use whatever color you may feel drawn to or simply have available).

You can also use in conjunction with the Immunity Booster Sigil – which was created to help deal with the coronavirus.

 

PLEASE NOTE:
When sharing this sigil, please be sure to include the link to the blog post (https://www.patheos.com/blogs/tempest/2020/03/introducing-the-needs-met-sigil.html). The sigil works best if people understand precisely what went into it, versus just sharing the image and telling people to use it. The Needs Met Sigil is protected by the Creative Commons License

We encourage you to visit Laura’s blog post for more information on the details and how it works. For more information on any of Laura’s many authored titles, reach out to us at any time.

March Astrological Insights: A Time for Reflection

By Jen Freeman

At long last, Spring is here! But before that unmistakable surge of life force returns, we still need to navigate Pisces season. Pisces as the last sign of the zodiac is all about endings. It’s a wrapping up of the human experience, a time to reflect and to feel, to absorb and to receive the fullness of the last year. Pisces is the last of the water signs and the last month of winter. It is also associated with the last years of our lives, when we are no longer beginning projects but enjoying the fruits of our labor while preparing for our next great adventure of letting go into the Great Mystery through dying. If you feel yourself slowing down, needing to rest, to feel and heal, reflect and contemplate, you are right on time.

Mercury, the planet associated with the mind and communication, is retrograde until March 9th. A planet in retrograde refers to it’s apparent movement backwards from our vantage point on earth. When a planet is in a retrograde period, the functions associated with that planet are turned inward instead of expressed in the outer world. Mercury’s been dancing between the signs of Aquarius and Pisces, intensifying the “feeling is healing” quality of this time, inviting us to go inward and feel deeply. 

Your mind may feel fuzzy, have a hard time remembering info, and be more tuned in to intuition than analysis. This is an opportunity provided to us by the cosmos to let go into the Mystery and stop going outward for a period of time. Don’t worry—you’ll be able to pick up that thinking again in no time! For now, let yourself relax into your imagination, feeling into the possibilities of what you may create in this new cycle that begins with the Spring Equinox at 9:50 pm MT time on March 19th.

I love to go outside during the exact moment of the Equinoxes and Solstices and feel the energetic change. The shift from Pisces into Aries is a wild ride—I highly recommend it! It’s also a great time to set intentions, to ride the wave of creating new life that Aries represents. May you have a beautiful time resting and reflecting until then!

Rescuing Ladybugs, by Jennifer Skiff

Rescuing Ladybugs is a book that highlights the true stories of remarkable people who didn’t look away from seemingly impossible- to-change situations, and describes how their lives AND OURS TOO, have been enriched while they’ve worked to save others. 

Most children delight in interacting with ladybugs, butterflies, even ants. At a petting zoo, they marvel at goats, cows, and chickens. They often go on to lock eyes with a dog, cat, or hamster. Rescuing Ladybugs is about those moments with animals when we feel a connection.

In 1997 the author came face to face with a bear imprisoned in a cage, confined by a straightjacket. What could she do? She subsequently led a campaign to build the first bear sanctuary in Laos. Her experience is far from unique, as the compelling stories here show.

From Jaguars in Brazil and Mantas in the Maldives to chickens, rabbits, and pigs at home, humans are moved to rescue animals. As Skiff shows, each and every way we experience connection with our fellow creatures, and give voice to the voiceless, adds to our own well-being. The life force of animals, she reveals, can help one find one’s own.

These stories – including one starring Dave Pauli, speaking at Barjon’s this month – illustrate how we can break the barriers that have collectively caged and separated us to improve all  life on earth.
