Drinking Beautiful Water
““Water, the Hub of Life. Water is its mater and matrix, mother and medium. Water is the most extraordinary substance! Practically all its properties are anomolous, which enabled life to use it as building material for its machinery. Life is water dancing to the tune of solids.” ~ Albert Szent-Gyorgyi”
Hydrating…Enlivening…Refreshing…Healing…Inspiring…Honoring…Connecting
I made a discovery a few years back, and that was something that combined my love of art, health and gardening all together in a most amazing way. And something so simple yet so divine. The making and drinking of what I call, Beautiful Water.
How to make your own Beautiful Water
Making beautiful water is easy, it is cultivating the componants that can be the work! But even that need not be difficult. I make it a point of growing mostly edible flowers in my garden, so that they can be put into my water, salads, teas and healing essences. I use only organic soils and fertilizers. Here is what I used for this pitcher of Beautiful water:
A GLASS PITCHER IS IDEAL- I love to be able to see the water, and the flowers and plants form beautiful patterns and colors.
USE FRESH SPRING OR FILTERED OR WELL WATER- Clean good water is preferred, but use what you have, and the water will be uplifted.
GATHER YOUR PLANTS AND FLOWER WHEN FRESH- I use fresh flowers and leaves, not wilted. For the water pictured above I used a mix of Pansies, Dianthus, Mint, Lemon Balm, Petunia, Nasturtium flowers and leaves and Rose petals.

Creating beauty from the Heart, in the form of ART
Living an Enchanted joyful healthy life is our purpose, that is what Albert Einstein believed.
Find me in the flowers, under the blue sky, surrounded by the forest, dancing.
In the world of Gwynaelwyd, which means Holy Blessed homeland, and the place where my 13 wise women Oracles reside with their beloved community, the foundation of every day is joy, love, self care, creativity, nourishment, nurturing, exploration, and following the desires and guidance of the heart! ( find out more about the Oracle Council HERE)
Here is a quote that I was recently sent by my dear brother, and it is not only inspiring, but so aligned with how the Wise Women and my own heart advise me to live. You are here to be free to enjoy! Trust in that.
When Einstein gave lectures at U.S. universities, the recurring question that students asked him most was:
- Do you believe in God? And he always answered":- I believe in the God of Spinoza.
Baruch de Spinoza was a Dutch philosopher considered one of the great rationalists of 17th century philosophy, along with Descartes.
(Spinoza) : God would say:
Stop praying.
What I want you to do is go out into the world and enjoy your life. I want you to sing, have fun and enjoy everything I've made for you.
Stop going into those dark, cold temples that you built yourself and saying they are my house. My house is in the mountains, in the woods, rivers, lakes, beaches. That's where I live and there I express my love for you.
Stop blaming me for your miserable life; I never told you there was anything wrong with you or that you were a sinner, or that your sexuality was a bad thing. Sex is a gift I have given you and with which you can express your love, your ecstasy, your joy. So don't blame me for everything they made you believe.
Stop reading alleged sacred scriptures that have nothing to do with me. If you can't read me in a sunrise, in a landscape, in the look of your friends, in your son's eyes... ➤ you will find me in no book!
Stop asking me "will you tell me how to do my job?" Stop being so scared of me. I do not judge you or criticize you, nor get angry, or bothered. I am pure love.
Stop asking for forgiveness, there's nothing to forgive. If I made you... I filled you with passions, limitations, pleasures, feelings, needs, inconsistencies... free will. How can I blame you if you respond to something I put in you? How can I punish you for being the way you are, if I'm the one who made you? Do you think I could create a place to burn all my children who behave badly for the rest of eternity? What kind of god would do that?
Respect your peers and don't do what you don't want for yourself. All I ask is that you pay attention in your life, that alertness is your guide.
My beloved, this life is not a test, not a step on the way, not a rehearsal, nor a prelude to paradise. This life is the only thing here and now and it is all you need.
I have set you absolutely free, no prizes or punishments, no sins or virtues, no one carries a marker, no one keeps a record.
You are absolutely free to create in your life. Heaven or hell.
Is there life after death?
I can't tell you if there's anything after this life but I can give you a tip. Live as if there is not. As if this is your only chance to enjoy, to love, to exist.
So, if there's nothing after, then you will have enjoyed the opportunity I gave you. And if there is, rest assured that I won't ask if you behaved right or wrong, I'll ask. Did you like it? Did you have fun? What did you enjoy the most? What did you learn?...
Stop believing in me; believing is assuming, guessing, imagining. I don't want you to believe in me, I want you to believe in you. I want you to feel me in you when you kiss your beloved, when you tuck in your little girl, when you caress your dog, when you bathe in the sea.
Stop praising me, what kind of egomaniac God do you think I am?
If you want to thank me for giving you life, restore the wonder to your heart
I'm bored being praised. I'm tired of being thanked. Feeling grateful? Prove it by taking care of yourself, your health, your relationships, the world. Express your joy! That's the way to praise me.
Stop complicating things and repeating as a parakeet what you've been taught about me.
What do you need more miracles for? So many explanations?
The only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders.
- Spinoza
