September goals

I think that when I get the chance this month I should look at how we are going to be able to move up north.

I need to find out the rental price of properties in various locations and the cost of hiring out a van to get stuff up there. We would have to rent it out for a few days so that we can get everything up (we will be limited to the size van that we will be able to take up and I know that we will not be able to fit it all in a large van)

Been ill

I set myself a goal for last month and I have still not done it.

I was lazy in July which was why I did nothing then but I was ill in August so that was why I have done it this month.

I think I am going to have to rename this Blog again though. I would like to include my hoped for move to the north. That is more achievable at the moment and it is something that we can do in the next two years. I am hoping that once my partner has finished college next year we can start planning to make the move. Ideally we would be making the move next summer when the younglings are off school.

Tarot reading

I decided to do a tarot reading and see what it would say about me moving to Canada. I did a four card reading (past, present, future, final outcome) and this is what the result was:

Past: Ten Of Wands

Carrying a heavy load. I need to take care that I do not take on more than I can handle. Spreading myself too thinly could lead to both an emotional and spiritual low.

Present: Ace of coins

Windfall and gain. Material gain, prosperity and growth. Contentment, happiness and achievement. I will achieve success both spiritually and materialistically as well as gaining satisfaction.

Future: Seven Of Cups

Too many roads to choose from can slow the journey. Imagination and creativity are gifts, but I need to take care not to be distracted from my destination. Success and love will be found if I choose the right path but should I choose the wrong path my dreams may not be realized. I must make sure that I am not aspiring after materialistic goals.


Final Outcome: Eight Of Wands

Travel, a speedy journey. Ideas that swiftly become reality. I will receive messages and news. This will be a time for action. I must be careful that I do not act in haste as I could end up regretting them.

I think that is an interesting reading and I think it will be interesting to see what happens. That is why I want to write it down so I can look back and see how accurate it was.

Useful links

I decided to have a look on the British Expats forum to see if there was anything useful.

I saw a couple of threads that could be useful. They were threads about what you like and dislike about Canada.

I think it would be good to gain insight about what people like and dislike about a country. I think it is a good way to gain some insight.

Baie-Johan-Beetz

I found my map of Canada recently and I thought I would try asking my pendulum where I would move to.

After checking for a bit it said that I would move to a place called Baie-Johan-Beetz. I had a look on Wikipedia but sadly there is not a lot about it. There is a population of 95 so it is a pretty small place. I have looked at some pictures and it looks pretty. I am not sure what shops that are available, but there will be something but the houses look lovely.

This is the article:

Baie-Johan-Beetz

I did not find a Website for the town, but there is a tourist website that I found.

When I went onto Google Earth this was all that I could find:

At least there were some pictures that I could look at. These are some of the pictures that I found:

Goal for this month

I managed to find some sites for last months challenge.

I think for this month I should keep looking as well as from time to time look on the forum to see if there are anything useful about moving to Canada.
