Horse Sense....

 

 

So there's been lots of horses this week so far, and they'll be a whole heap more before I'm finished this week, because it's Karaka tomorrow and Monday.

But you know, there's been little bits of magic so far.  Some of my outside horses I helped breathe.  That's cuteness - one had a throat chakra blockage so I removed that, another literally couldn't breathe properly because she was shaking, that was special.  I love that tummy to tummy touch.  There's a particular kind of magic to bring the Energy down from there, and another one, I just touched.  She's pregnant and I could touch-count her ribs.  We just touched.  I can't do anything big with these horses, nothing that is going to go Wow! That's pretty impressive or even, That's above-averagely good.  But still, this is my life and I will take whatever I can.  

I've spent this afternoon slowing into the Energy though, baking in the sun, sitting in the Silence, having mini naps and reading books because tomorrow's Karaka and I'll be working.  I'm looking for 2 kinds of horses, seeing if there's repeat faults and/or anything I might need to correct.  Also, pairings.  It's always super fun.  I started sitting a little in left field this arvo, but then again I've dealt with some seriously base Energy and the just downright stupid, today.  

Anyway, even as I've started writing this, I can feel the sun and my truth working it's magic.  I can feel myself coming back into myself.  A good nights sleep and I should be ten foot tall and bulletproof.  

Mares is super cool.  I'm so proud of how she is.  I'm starting to play round with vitamin, minerals, herbs etc again.  I know she's looking great but I consistently need to be running with the Energy.  And I'm hearing the Energy changing, so I need to change too.  I tried adding an extra bit of feed, opened the bag, put it in her feed and was like, That's not going to work.  I was right, Mares left it.  That's a bit of a bugger, considering I used half of one large scoop and then gave the rest of the bag away.  As soon as I know something is not working for Mares though, I don't use it.  It's wasted time.

To be fair though, we're now working in such an extremely specialized way, it's easy to see when or if, something is working.  And quickly.  

I swear, hand on heart though, that the horses know when humans are doing their best for them, even when you get it wrong.  

They know and try and help you.

Mares is also letting me play with her foal.  Now that's some crazy kind of magic.

Karaka was cool.  There's a special kind of magic around this place and it was super fun once again.  I said, Hi! to a few people but to be honest, I was so late getting there, I didn't get there until about 2.30.  I literally am getting up and the next minute, Boom! it's 10, 11 o'clock at night.  There is no room to breathe.  But I'm so pleased I went.  I was right about a couple of things.  Anyway, it was a flying visit, hopefully more time tomorrow but even if not, it's been good.

Our little Blue Rose is a rockstar.  I love her!  Fenny's not doing so well with taking to Motherhood, she still needs to be hog tied.  However, I live in hope, haven't been gouged yet and have learnt soooooooooooo much.  

I got a bit pissy this arvo when I tried a new way though, I put Fenny's food down and tried feeding with no halter.  It did not work.  She was trying to gouge little Blue, then kick her and generally was a pain in the ass.  I took the food away, hopped in the car and went and did something else.   Well, seriously, there's so much something else that I have to choose from it wasn't hard.  Went back about an hour later, and we fed at dusk.  Thank Spirit for my most amazing neighbours, Tui and Chris.  They have, and continue to be, my saving grace.

We live in hope for a good result tomorrow.

Ooooh, almost forgot, have started taking a few video's with the mini's.  Today was first day, trial and error, mostly error with lighting, placing etc but hopefully, I will have some vid's up in the next day or so.  

This looks like it's going to be one hell of a year.

The next time I have a good idea, slap me.  No, seriously, give me a tap on the side of the head and tell me to snap out of it.  This last week has been insane.  

Every moment that I am awake is crammed.  With horses, clients, cows, calves, dodging kicking cows, avoiding being gouged by said cows horns, horses, clients...and then repeat.  And repeat.  

On a good note, I haven't been kicked or gouged by said cow.  Although to be fair, that's more through luck than good management.  I LOVE my neighbours Tui and Christine, and my friends up the road Geoff and Aria, though.  Spirit knew what they were doing when they put us in this house.  It is only through their constant support and help that we are getting a successful end result.

I have started taking the odd video of the mini's.  I'm not too happy with how they're coming out, I'm not getting the soul of us.  I'll keep playing around though and see what happens.  I do however, put the video's up although I normally take them down after 3 or 4 hours.  That kind of works for me.  

Suz has been a bit naughty.  She's like, I run Peanut and I'm like, I don't think so... so her and I are re-setting boundaries.  The other little ones are a bit Meh! at the moment but we're coming up to Full Moon and it's super hot so you know, it's ok.  

Karaka Day 2 was good.  I didn't get to stay consistently because of timing (or lack of) but did get two definite sessions there which worked well.  No horses for me however, it was really good.  I'm fairly pleased with how things went, the Energy got large for me at the end though, I always hear the desperation which upsets me. However, I got what I immediately wanted, a few things I didn't and have put things in place to get the other information I need.

And of course, there was the odd surprise just to keep me on my toes.

So, that's been our week:  It's insane.  It's crazy busy with people and Spirit and horses but it's more than that, people are writing their own stories for me and it's not what I originally thought 12 months ago.  This has been surprising.  Not bad, just different.  It's kind of like everyone's got past the whoo stuff and we've finally got the magic.  

Or not.

But I'm so busy it's ike a tidal wave, and I'm just being swept along, trying to keep my head above water.  I guess I'll see what's left at the end. 

Yeah, that kind of feels right, writing that.

Wishing you much love my friends and of course, my humans.

Caps, me, Spirit, Az, Ralph, Chew, Suz, Peanut, Fenny, Blue Rose, Flash plus 1 and of course my darling Mares, and baby Mares.

Fenny still not voluntarily feeding Blue, but we live in hope.

** Mares is on new vitamins and minerals.  I'm feeling pretty great about things but it's still too early to tell with Mares, although early indications are positive.  

Who am I kidding?  Mares and I love playing around with new vitamins and minerals and herbs.   

*** And the big question this week has been, Why won't you just use a feed which has been scientifically researched and made to give all the vitamins and minerals a horse needs, in the correct doseages?  

Me:

Why won't you listen to your horse?
