I rushed to my phone with my morning coffee to see whether you'd replied :) Again: fascinating! And double ouch re. that serial killer warlord. I believe that our interest in loving and caring for "our" cats must have some occult aspect to it. I wonder whether anyone has written on that topic? I mean, I have dog companions too and love them dearly. But my relationship with the cats in my life is significantly different. I have never thought of them as pets, for instance. There's just something about cats that sets them apart, and the whole world recognises it. How people react to that recognition tells a lot about them, don't you think? Of course you do, look at your incarnations!

I am bracing myself for the day I start remembering past lives, if I ever do. Do you also do any Scrying?

As to why Harry and Meghan are plastered all over, paid PR of course. Paid for Awards too. She is a big fan of The Secret and to be fair, look what she has manifested for herself. I'm just not convinced that either of them believe in paying the price for what they get. Your recent post documenting a conversation among lefty witches saying that karma only exist for those who believe in it, comes to mind...And you are absolutely correct, of course it's a matter of bread and circuses for us here in poor old Blighty.
On that point: I am planning to blog on the ongoing collapse over here. It's fraying around the seams very rapidly. Following your advice, the theme will be on finding the pearls for gratitude in there, and also how I as an average working class slob manage my own collapsing in place. With added cats of course.
