I’m sure you’re noticing the growing light, the endless days. Are you also finding yourself enjoying moments of stillness and peacefulness that seem to be plentiful right now? As we approach the moment when the Sun appears to stand still in the sky, there’s so much beauty to contemplate.
[Read more…]Things rarely unfold like my imagination would like them to unfold. Does this happen to you too, or is just me? Deciding the Thursday before that I’d like to watch what I can of the eclipse, and then finding out that Amazon didn’t save a pair of NASA-approved glasses for me — one more example of what “surrender to win” is about.
I could choose to get upset about this, or I could let go and move on.
“All is well, provided the light returns and the eclipse does not become endless night….The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.” — Victor Hugo
Of course there are none available! Such a surprise. [Read more…]
A sacred pause that is a reminder and teacher. A sacred pause in which to listen, and to receive.
You may receive a question. Or a message. Or something that is beyond words.
For me this Solstice feels like a culmination moment. I’ve been unfolding like a flower for the last couple of months (since the move). I’m doing things I was reluctant or afraid to do before, and reaching deep down inside myself for the willingness to keep going deeper. [Read more…]
How do you allow for changes once the commitment is made? Because darling, change happens (there’s that fluidity again!), and I can tell you that it feels so much better when you realize that even when things change, or lose priority, you’re still okay. There is a ton of freedom attached to full-hearted commitment and full-hearted acceptance of the ebb and flow that may cause commitments to change or even disappear.
I have three small-ish stories that arose this week, calling to be shared with you. Each is about commitment in its own way.
Let’s look.
And then let’s agree to support each other by making morning magic together. What we do together adds up to so much more than we can accomplish alone. [Read more…]
I thought that by now I’d be telling you that I found my place, and that my move is tidily arranged, and that I have it done, on time.
I thought so twice. But no, not yet, I’m still on the journey. Oy. I am tired. And I worked so hard.
Yes that one.
I’ve been in what feels like a dark, chilled, unfriendly hallway for the last ten — no, eleven — days now. And it’s been awful.
My housemate gave notice on the 13th, and I’m on a clock to find a new place.
You see, I have a lot of thoughts that are loud in my head and that keep me stuck in my familiar state of negativity. Sound familiar?
I am much more skilled at retaining the fear and negativity, and hanging out in them, than I am in embracing and wrapping myself in the good and juicy possibilities that arise.
I got really scared. And the fear’s invitation was irresistible. I couldn’t resist it. To the point that I was ignoring the sweet, clean, and clear possibilities that came my way.
Moment by moment, we live in the feeling of our thinking, not our circumstances. Our resilience, wellbeing, and creativity are innate, not circumstantial. It doesn’t always feel this way; we all get caught up in the illusion of our thinking from time to time. But the more you cultivate your awareness of your fundamental, innate okayness, the more you will come to see through the ups and downs of your thought-generated experience. — Molly Gordon
My level of compassion is up; and the look on the face of my clients’ tells me that it’s just what is needed as they walk through the hallways they’re in right now. I have room for one or two more even now as I begin to dismantle, pack, and move. Check it out: Book a no-strings call and let’s see what’s meant to be.
Once you sign up, you get membership in a secret Facebook group where you can join the conversation, get support, listen and be heard.
What’s your go-to practice when your dealing with those top-ten transitions? When you’re feeling like it’s hell in the hallway? Please let me know; leave a comment.
But after only 24 hours, I stopped posting those pix. I stopped talking about them. I heeded the call to return to love instead. That’s why instead of me including some of the march pix here I’m sharing other images with you today. Read on to find out what they’re about.
As a Priestess who means business, I remember my purpose and my commitment. Every thought, word, and action is the most effective when it comes from love. And when I find that I’ve drifted off into negativity and in-your-face divisiveness, I return to love, return to love, return to love.

All of these things that we fought for and made space for and celebrated over the last decades — who knows what’s going to happen now?
[Ack! This post is taking a long time to write because I am throwing my hands up and making disgusted noises as I type each of these things in that list above. Okay, calming back down.]
