Daily Aesop's Fables:

The Fox and the Grapes

A famished fox crept into a vineyard where ripe, luscious grapes were draped high upon arbors in a most tempting display. In his effort to win a juicy prize, the fox jumped and sprang many times but failed in all his attempts. When he finally had to admit defeat, he retreated and muttered to himself, "Well, what does it matter anyway? The grapes are sour!"

Daily Aesop's Fables:

Mercury and the Sculptor

Once Mercury wished to learn what men thought about him. So, he disguised himself as a traveler and entered a sculptor's workshop, where he began asking the price of the different statues he saw there. Pointing to an image of Jupiter, he asked how much the sculptor wanted for it.

"A drachma," said the sculptor.

Mercury laughed up his sleeve and asked, "How much for this of Juno?"

The man wanted a higher price for that.

Mercury's eye now caught the sight of his own statue. "Most likely this fellow will ask ten times the price for this," he thought. " After all, I'm heaven's messenger and the source of all his gain." So he asked the sculptor once more what he wanted for the statue of Mercury.

"Well," said the man, "if you give me what I ask for the other two, I'll throw this into the bargain for nothing."

~ Those people who are too anxious to know what the world thinks of them will seldom fetch the price they set upon themselves. ~

As a reminder to everyone, when dross comes out as result of purification, it will temporarily bring up difficulties in life related to the dross you are purifying. Do extra cleaning with High Priestess Lydia's light scanning method, to clean the spiritual dross which is brought to the surface and clings to your aura. 2-3 times per day extra during, and up to 1 week after completing a Deep Purification Working.

Besides spiritual matters, tackle issues which prop up in your life to permanently overcome them. Dross brought to the surface gives you the chance to properly overcome life situations related to the spiritual baggage you previously carried deep inside your soul and transform yourself to a new state.

Through purification you are reborn.​

Daily Aesop's Fables:

The Hawk and the Pigeons

Some Pigeons had long lived in fear of a hawk, but since they had always kept on the alert and stayed near their dovecote, they had consistently managed to escape their enemy's attacks. Finding his sallies unsuccessful, the hawk now sought to use cunning to trick the pigeons.

"Why", he once asked, "do you prefer this life of constant anxiety when I could keep you safe from any conceivable attack by the kites and falcons? All you have to do is to make me your king, and I won't bother you anymore."

Trusting his claims, the pigeons elected him to their throne, but no sooner was he installed than he began exercising his royal prerogative by devouring a pigeon day.

"It serves us right," said one poor pigeon whose turn was yet to come.

Daily Aesop's Fables:

The Frogs who desired a King.

A long time ago, when the frogs led a free and easy life in the lakes and ponds, they became disgruntled because everyone lived according to his own whim, and chaos reigned. Consequently, they gathered together and petitioned Jupiter to let them have a king who would bring order into their lives and make them more responsible. Knowing how foolish the frogs were, Jupiter smiled at their request and threw a log down into the lake.

"There is your King!" he declared.

This log made such a splash that it terrified the poor frogs, who dived under water and into the mud. No one dared to come within ten leaps of the spot where it lay in stillness. Eventually, one frog, who was bolder than the rest, ventured to pop his head above the water and watch their new king at a respectful distance. When some others soon perceived that the log was lying stock-still, they began to swim up to it and around it. At last, they grew so bold that they leaped upon it and treated it with the greatest contempt.

Dissatisfied with such a tame ruler they immediately petitioned Jupiter a second time to grant them a more active king. This time he sent them a stork, and no sooner did the bird arrive than he began seizing and devouring them one by one as fast as he could. Devastated by their new king, the frogs now sent Mercury with a private message to Jupiter, beseeching him to take pity on them once more. But Jupiter replied that they were being justly punished for their folly and that maybe next time they would learn to let well enough alone.
