美國眾院民主黨提出彈劾川普案下週將表決,若通過川普將成美國有史以來第四位遭彈劾的總統(Trump is fourth U.S. president to face impeachment as Democrats unveil charges)。impeachment (n.彈劾)來自動詞impeach (v.彈劾)=字首im-(=in-表into)+拉丁文pedica(表fetter上腳鐐,內含字根-ped-表foot腳),讓人上腳鐐就是要控告、舉發罪行,就是impeach,加名詞字尾-ment就是impeachment彈劾。(★impede妨礙、expedite加速執行,都有字根-ped-表foot)

expedite動詞 在 阿聖的魔法咻啦啦碰 Facebook 的最佳貼文
聖加速儀式進行的非常順利!
在儀式之前還做了小五芒星放逐。
整個儀式過程中我都在不斷的冒汗
馬上體驗到《聖加速》的效率與速度!
聖加速在救援方面非常有幫助
祂名字是Saint Expedite
Expedite英翻中的詞義為
動詞:促進、催促
名詞:暢快的、緊急的
所以顧名思義,聖者在緊急時,需要一切暢通時絕對會給你神來一手的協助與幫忙。
聖加速在祈求願望方面很廣,但大多人用在財富方面的願望比較多,原因是祂相對應日子是周四,剛好是木星的日子,但其實在各種需要暢通、緊急、促進、催促的願望,都可以向祂祈求!
但前提是:你也願意為自己的願望付出努力與100%的責任!
我曾經幫一位朋友做過緊急魔法儀式,那天我忙到累到極限,準備了很多東西和儀軌,儀式完成後三天,他打電話來說:「儀式沒效啊!都沒工作來找我!」
他許的願望是『希望我能在最短時間內找到工作,能有盡快有收入!』,但他卻誤以為儀式做完後,老闆就會駕車到他家門口恭迎他來公司上班,所以他連履歷都沒丟出半封…
我常遇到類似狀況,但我大多都會柔性引導他找到自己的責任,再搭配魔法的力量後,才能感受到那順水推舟的力量與祝福。
另外我魔法老師之前寫的資料中提到過,聖加速除了可以做:
財富、商業、金錢、事業外,
還能幫助我們解決紛爭、訴訟調停、讓原本停滯的事情加速不拖延、使其蛻變。
最後一個是→讓你的仇敵瞎忙到虛脫!!!
簡單的說就是打小人,讓你的仇敵因為忙碌而無法繼續中傷攻擊你!(這超棒的啊啊啊!)
所以今天也將聖加速的魔法膏拿到祭壇上一起助聖,這瓶魔法膏就是能協助上面說的的各個層面相關的願望。
這週真的是神速體驗營,我參與了粉紅超跑的遶境,今天又做了聖加速儀式,一天後我還要飛去杭州找超有智慧與效率的濟公師父。
真的是非常有效率的一週啊!
聖加速膏我會等儀式蠟燭燒完後再上架,數量目前有88個,準備這麼多就是希望每個人都能有一瓶,這瓶搭配其他魔法產品,可以大大提升效率唷!
另外叮嚀:
緊急魔法雖然有效率,但相對會犧牲一定程度的品質,所以不建議所有願望都強調要緊急神速,有些事情需要時間慢慢醞釀、仔細觀察、檢討調整、溫煦薰陶~才會出現最棒的結果。
