Reconnect to Your Unattended Spaces
“Finding the center of strength within ourselves is in the long run the best contribution we can make to our fellow human beings…
this is what our society needs… persons who can “be”, that is,
persons who have a center of strength within themselves.”
~~ Rollo May

The season of Pisces is upon us and critical conversations are stirring up feelings, dreams, and forgotten wounds. The emotional downloads are potent with opportunities to release and recover, but at the same time we are encouraged to remember that support and wisdom for this journey are available to claim and trust. During the next 18 months, prepare to encounter new dimensions in consciousness, as we all learn how to navigate the world by creating shifts and establishing a new order. continue reading
Remember Your Body is Wise
This living
breathing body
always waiting
to greet you
at the door,
always prepared
to give you
the rest you need,
always,
no matter
the long
years away,
still
wanting you,
to come home.
~~ David Whyte

The Full Snow Moon reached its peak illumination at 8:53 am EST on Wednesday February 12. This February Full Moon appears in the constellation of Leo, the sign of the Lion. According to Lorna Bevan of Hare in the Moon Astrology, we are now caught in the days when timelines jump and things feel mismatched. The roadmap of 2025 is filled with twists and turns and nothing resembling “business as usual” will be showing up on the horizon. The only way forward is through, as we learn to recognize and negotiate the unprecedented inner and outer experiences and phenomena. continue reading
The Year of Transformation
The way of the Creative works through change and transformation,
so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny
and comes into permanent accord with the Great Harmony:
this is what furthers and what perseveres.

We are still in the midst of Winter, with freezing temperatures and blustery winds. The snow and freezing rain remind us that we are not in control of the weather! While the landscape appears barren, the ancient cycle of rebirth is occurring deep in the ground, at the root level of the trees. Transformation is constant and ongoing. Change is part of our environment, and the interplay of yin and yang is evident. continue reading
Reimagine Your Path
“Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once,
but of stretching out to mend the part of the world
that is within our reach.”

Release to Realign
“To let go is to release the images and emotions, the grudges and fears, the clingings and disappointments of the past that bind our spirit.”
~~ Jack Kornfield
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We are in the post glow of the Full Wolf Moon—the time when the bright illumination of the Sun’s reflection on the moon is already waning, but the night sky is still filled with light. And yet, we feel the stirrings of things we have kept in the dark, hidden away. While the monthly Full Moons signify peak moments of a rising tide, they also offer the opportunity to glimpse into the recesses of our heart, soul and psyche. We can tenderly peek into the sacred nooks where our dreams, fears and lived experiences reside. But especially now, with the placement of Cancer, Mars and the Moon, we might find a bit more congestion and clutter than we imagined. continue reading
