“An apple a day may... but a peach a day can ...”

“An apple a day may keep the doctor away, 
but a peach a day can make you live forever”. 

“Inhale the breath of life”.

My first thought (read about my immediate response to when a color is revealed to me here) http://secretrulesforattainment.blogspot.com/2017/09/i-am-genius-and-so-are-you.html is that of something I heard recently and use in my daily ritual. It is this: “We breath in grace and we exhale gratitude”; or we should (my note added).

OK, the phrase in quotes is taken from Inna Segal; one of my mentors. If you want to know more about her work, please feel free to do your own research. From here out, this article is from my perspective (and that of the Universe) and I may come back to get and share a few things from Inna’s perspective. Now let’s find out why you chose “peach” and how this has significance for you today and beyond.

Wikipedia explains the symbolism of “peach” and states In Chinese mythology, Peaches of Immortality (Chinese: 仙桃; pinyin: xiāntáo;Cantonese Yale: sīn tòuh or Chinese: 蟠桃; pinyin: pántáo; Cantonese Yale: pùhn tòuh) are consumed by the immortals due to their mystic virtue of conferring longevity on all who eat them. Peaches symbolizing immortality (or the wish for a long and healthy life) are a common symbol in Chinese art, appearing in depictions or descriptions in a number of fables, paintings, and other forms of art, often in association with thematically similar iconography, such as certain deities or immortals or other symbols of longevity, such as deer or cranes.

This site is worth checking out; it’s interesting perspective about the peach states:
The meaning of the dream symbol: Peach

Because it blossoms early, the peach-tree in flower is a symbol of Spring. The same line of thought - rebirth and fertility - makes it also a Chinese emblem of marriage. The Momo or festivals held in honour of peach-blossom in Japan seem to reinforce this with the twofold notion of purity and faithfulness - peach-blossom symbolizing virginity.

Often both the tree and its fruit are symbols of immortality. The peach-tree belonging to the Siwang Mu, the Royal Mother of the West, every three thousand years bore fruit which conferred immortality. The Immortals fed upon peach- and plum-blossom or, like Koyeu, upon the peaches which grew on Mount Sui. Sap from peach trees, the Pao-p’u zu relates, makes the body luminous. Folk art assures us that the peach brings ‘a thousand Springs’.

Now let’s explore the “color” peach and its meaning.

Again Wikipedia seems consistent here.

Meaning of peach. The color peach represents immortality in Chinese civilization because the peachtree of immortality, long thought to be on a mountainside somewhere in the Tian Shan mountains in western China, is a key concept in the mythology of the Taoist religion.

Knowing this, peach has great significance in the fifth item in the list of the Major 8™ (M8/5) which has to do with “living a life and leaving a legacy”.

So here’s what you can do today to “inhale the breath of life”.

Purchase peaches and appreciate the aroma. Leave them out in a bowl today, keep one at your desk all day long and every once in a while, breathe in its fragrance. At the end of the day, go ahead and eat it but first “bless” it, and affirm out loud that by eating this peach you acknowledge its attributes of a long and successful life. Purchase a peach cologne or perfume. Burn peach scented candles. And because the “secret of living” is giving; give peaches today. Especially give peaches to those around you who are ailing and to those who have been diagnosed as terminal. (As John Demartini says in the movie, The Secret, “incurable means cureable from within”).
