Toward a World that Works for Everyone
When I was a little girl, my grandparents moved in with our family. It seemed a perfectly normal thing to do, as the child of immigrants, but it was an odd set up for the other kids in my neighborhood. They only saw their grandparents once in a while, but mine were a second set […]
When we feel unsafe, we often feel afraid. The fear from feeling afraid restricts us and can lead to feelings of unworthiness. When we feel unworthy we restrict the Love from Source, the energy of Source, the flow of life force through our minds and bodies, and our vibration lowers. By facing into our fears and […]
The other night, I was watching a movie with my husband after shoveling out from the snow storm. We were both exhausted from our physical labor and wanted something light to watch. We settled on the movie, The Replacements with Gene Hackman as the coach chosen to lead a team of strike-breaking football players, and […]
It’s funny to think back to 9-10 years ago and remember how I conceptualized ‘awakening’ and ‘enlightenment’ then. At that time, I see that I thought of it in terms of an escape from the mundane or even unpleasant reality I was living in. My thought process was something like, “Once I’m enlightened, I’ll be […]
We’ve all come to this here and now equipped with inherent abilities. This is the ‘tool chest’ we were born with, the one we have that is an expression of who and what we are as beings. We’ve come equipped with bodies capable of intelligence of mind, of emotion, and of spirit. Along the way, […]
Ok, what’s up with the dissolving memories? I’ve been having this interesting phenomenon present itself to me for several years now. It seems to be accelerating too. Once again, the reports from my peers are also hinting at the same process going on for some of them on some level too. For those who’ve been […]
(Continued from Part 1.) So what can we do when a flood enters? When weird thoughts occupy the mind, or uncomfortable emotions suddenly change our state of consciousness and cause us to drop in frequency? What I do is to go into solitude and cut-off from all outside input. I command all fear-based energies and […]
The second chakra, of the 13 chakra system that the Council of Love teaches, is our center for creation of the cosmetic repair, the regeneration of Gaia, of Mother Earth. This chakra is the the color of clay, of the red rocks of Sedona, of old brick, the red mud of the Mississippi. It is where […]
All humans are empaths, it’s part of the human survival kit to feel what others feel. Some people are more aware of and sensitive to their empathic nature and others less. It’s only when there is a disease like Asperger’s Syndrome, Autism or dis-social personality disorder that we don’t constantly read people, according to our […]
Come and sit with the Buddha, under the bodhi tree, and breathe. Breathe compassion. Did you know we take thousands of breaths a day, literally over 20,000. . .? With the deeper understanding of compassion comes the realization, as the Buddha tells us, that within that are thousands of opportunities to receive and send compassion […]
These new energies have presented some very interesting challenges for all of us. There seems to be a whole lot of doors popping open, invitations to move forward with projects, lines of communication appearing, miraculously and suddenly appearing, in fact, in seemingly perfect synchronicity. At the same time, there’s this consistent undertow of the pulling […]
(I’m posting this, my personal story, in two parts, as it is rather long.) Part 1 In the interest of transparency, let’s talk about the nitty-gritty. Let’s talk about the money sent in to the Hope Chest and some of how it gets spent in support of a team member. This is the story of […]
Part 2 Fast forward again to the end of 2013. Remember we’re talking about the money here and who receives it and why. After another year of service, of giving 12+ hours a day each day to serve community on a volunteer basis, my husband and I were challenged by fate to survive without his […]
Be good! If you’re like me then this phrase may bring up childhood memories. These memories are of the sort where I was (according to me) going along minding my own business when all of a sudden I would have some adult sternly admonishing me. “Be good!”, and there I’d be, wondering how, once again, […]
In the early phases of my training as a devotee of a pagan path; on my way through the years to become an initiated and fully trained autonomous priestess, I was given many rituals. These rituals were very beautiful to me and they helped me to integrate the tools I needed to manage my unruly […]
