Repeat after me. All is well, and all is well, and all is well. Take a nice deep breath and open your mind to the possibility that everything is exactly the way it is. And be okay with it. Parts of it are actually very good. Most of it is good. Take another deep breath, and maybe one more. All is well. We have to be okay with what is, because it is as it is. In our lives, the longest, hardest times are what we call our Dark Nights of the Soul. They are a universal part of the

It's hard right now I know it is. It’s hard to stay aligned when there seems to be disaster all around us. But that’s the thing. Disaster isn’t really all around us. We only perceive it that way because disaster has our full attention. Look, there is a global pandemic, there’s no denying that. But we don’t have to focus exclusively on that. We can. There’s constant coverage of it and it’s really awful and a little bit addictive. I have found myself scouring the internet for m

Mystics and sages have always known the power of the in-between. The most powerful times for magic, for example, are in-between times: dawn which is the precipice between night and day, and dusk, between day and night. Midnight is the fulcrum between today and tomorrow, noon the tipping point from morning to afternoon, and so on. In nature, swamps are in between earth and water, fog is in between water and air. Doorways are in between rooms and are always considered potent pl

Briefly: What is Divination? Divination, according to the dictionary, is “The practice of seeking knowledge of the future by supernatural means.” Well, that’s off. First, it’s seeking knowledge, period. Not just knowledge of the future, but all sorts of knowledge. Most importantly, knowledge about your own inner being, your own connection, your own baggage, focus, goals, and pathways to reach them. Second, it’s not “by supernatural means” because there’s no such thing as supe

Here is what I got. I was shown my cupped hands, and my spirit-self pouring its energy down into them  and from them into my body. I  meditate near a rippling stream, so the sound effects assisted this vision beautifully. I directed the flow to my third eye, then to my throat and heart and on down. And then I felt this clear message: You don’t have to channel it. You ARE it. I am it. I am spirit. I am Source. I am light. The song, I Am Light by India Arie came to me and I lis

The Celts The ancient Celts divided their year according to astronomical cycles. They recognized, (we think): The Winter Solstice, Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, and Autumn Equinox as the 4 quarters of the year, and the dates halfway in between each of those dates as the “Cross-Quarters.” The Cross-Quarters, (Imbolc, around February  2, Beltane around May 1, Lughnasadh around August 2, and Samhain, around November 7) were and are the major turning points of the year, and th

I got most of this sitting in a lawn chair by the pond experiencing the world around me after a very stressful week last fall. And suddenly I was laughing at how much fun it all was. In that moment I was Spirit. And this is what came through me so fast I had to rush indoors to write it down. You deserve to live in a palace! All of you. Oh, if you only knew what you are. You are Source, and you are Source’s pointguard. You, YOU are the creator. You create what you desire with

Spirituality means different things to different people. To me, it means a personal relationship with my Source. I don’t equate spirituality with the practices associated with any particular faith. That’s religion, whether it’s Christian, Buddhist, Wiccan, or any one of the world’s roughly 4200 different religious traditions. To me, spirituality is personal. It’s what’s going on inside me. It’s how I relate to my higher self and to the greater whole. To me, spirituality isn’t
