This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for January 04, 2009:
Wealth and money. When I was in private practice as a massage therapist, I felt uncomfortable getting paid. It's so less awkward to just get a paycheck stealthily deposited. It's something I sat with and witnessed in myself every time someone paid me or gave me a tip.
I'm working on accepting wealth. I think I've limited myself to a degree in my life in regards to money, and I want to turn that around. I'm slowly accepting that wealth is not a son - it's what one does with it and how one gets it that matters. All is flow. But I'm still working on asking for that from the Universe and my higher self.

wow how funny! i read the prompt question and said the exact same thing to myself. it may be that you love your job a bit too much not to give it away once in awhile too. I find that happens to me especially when i’m doing something i love that i know my community needs. (also, if it’s something i love that you need, it could never be bought, the money is a symbol of something that could be expressed otherwise)
another good meditation, I’ve found is to imagine people giving you what you would normally have to pay for instead. Maybe you know a farmer who will give you a few weeks worth of milk and produce in exchange, or private salespeople may trade (gift) you items you are looking for anyway (solar water heaters, a painting?)
money has a lot of intense karma and energy on it…sometimes the feel of it in my hand makes me nervous because of all the energy it brings, good or bad. It’s pretty important in our society now, but there are other equally powerful means to prosperity. One day we may bypass that $ymbolic ;) middle between exchange.
good luck [to both of us!]
