Just curious...

1. I'd buy one ticket. All it takes it one ticket to win if you're...
supposed to win. I'd always wonder otherwise.

3. Yeah, that's what I did. Because, what the hey. But now...

I don't know. I guess I should cross this bridge if I come to it, as they say, but...I'm having conflicts about what to do with the money should I win it. Lots of conflicts. Especially because, I know this sounds CRAZY, but a lottery win, or a situation that allows me to come into "sudden money" would explain some of the weird things that have been showing up in other readings I've had done in the last year, not to mention all of those prophetic dreams I've had about winning the lottery. I mean, I guess I shouldn't be stressing about what and how to deal with a lottery win until it occurs--except, I've already read a lot about the best ways to keep a lottery windfall should it, er, befall you--but, still. Seriously conflicted. The conflict boils down to: a private life, with a plan for security, "squandering" the money on my own interests, (and doing "selfish" shit like attempting to take care of lingering health problems as well mapping out a retirement plan) or...blow it all to help Progressives and needy folks. I'm conflicted, everyone. I don't think I could do both.

4. Should it come to pass, we'll help you deal with that terrible burden ;-)
Seriously though, I've daydreamed on many occasions about this very thing myself. I'm having trouble understanding why you can't take care of yourself and others with the money...For instance, I decided that if I won the lotto, I would use it to help train more healers. In my daydreams, I imagine how how many new friends I would meet who share our passion for the things we talk about on this board. I imagine how good it would feel to use the money for something that would just continue to grow and help and heal people. I imagine taking care of my own needs too (I would love to have my own llama farm one day) but the most happiness I see coming from my work helping others. It would give more meaning and value to my life, and it's what my heart wants. Just ask your heart what it wants and I'm sure you'll make the right choice.

And good luck with your numbers !!!!

5. Since you are God having a human experience in this dream
you are entitled to spend your winnings just as frivolously and materialistically - or in any other way - that you may wish.

6. Aw, thanks for the support. Truthfully, I think I will wind up "hoarding"
my winnings. That, in my vision, is the best way to do the most good for the greatest number of people.

7. Okay, for those who voted for a "spell" for clarity/increased odds of win,
Edited on Tue Feb-28-06 10:11 AM by BlueIris
what spell would you use? I seem to recall people telling me on this forum that burning a green candle after carving the substance of your material desire on it can bring material gains; I've also heard people say that meditating with a piece of amber has helped them with employment and materially-oriented goals. Anyone else?
