Living from Source: Trusting the Pattern that holds Everything

“When we try to pick out anything by itself,
we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.”
~~ John Muir
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We’ve reached the end of February. The Fire Horse year is eleven days old and already you can feel it—the acceleration, the intensity, the demand for truth.
This month, we’ve been preparing for this moment:
Week 1: INTUITION — You learned to trust your body’s knowing. Head, heart, gut—three centers of intelligence. Your body knows before your mind can prove it.
Week 2: OBSERVATION — You learned to see clearly. To discern YOUR truth from the conditioning you inherited. To recognize when you’re seeing through someone else’s eyes vs. your own.
Week 3: WOMEN’S BODIES AS TEACHERS — You reclaimed your cycles as wisdom. Menstruation as winter, ovulation as summer, the full spectrum of feminine energy. Wild Woman rising. The Crone claiming her power.
This week—the final week—we complete the arc:
LIVING FROM SOURCE.
Intuition: The Body Always Knows First
“The only really valuable thing is intuition.”
~~ Albert Einstein
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We’ve crossed the threshold. Imbolc has passed as of February 1st, marking the first undeniable stirrings of light returning. In ten days, the Fire Horse year begins on February 17, 2026 — a rare, intense energy that arrives once every sixty years, bringing passion, creative force, and the demand for authentic expression.
January was about building SANCTUARY—creating the internal conditions where your true self could finally emerge. You learned to return to yourself, to create safety in your nervous system, to tend daily practices, to build resilience from restored reserves.
Now, in February, we explore what LIVES in that sanctuary:
Your intuition. Your body’s wisdom. Your direct knowing that doesn’t require external validation.
This month’s theme is SCIENCE MEETS SPIRIT—not as opposing forces, but as collaborators. We’re exploring what happens when neuroscience validates what mystics and healers have always known: Your body knows things your mind hasn’t caught up to yet.
And we’re beginning with the foundation of all embodied wisdom: intuition.
Tending the Fire that Sparks You

“May you awaken to the Mystery of being here
and enter the quiet immensity of your own presence.
May you have joy and peace in the temple of your senses.”
~~ John O’Donohue
Greetings to all my precious people!!
Last week, we remembered: you are made of stardust. You carry ancient wisdom. You’ve always had the magic.
This week, we turn our attention to what the Daoists call Shen—the spirit that lives in your heart. The light of consciousness. The fire that makes you uniquely, unmistakably YOU.
We are in the deep darkness of December now. The Winter Solstice approaches on December 21—the longest night of the year, when the sun seems to disappear entirely, and we are asked to trust that the light will return.
This is not accidental timing. The darkest night of the year is also the turning point. From this moment forward, the light begins its slow return. The days lengthen. The fire comes back.
But only if we tend it.
The Wisdom That Was Never Lost

“There is a faith in loving fiercely
the one who is rightfully yours,
especially if you have
waited years and especially
if part of you never believed
you could deserve this
loved and beckoning hand
held out to you this way.”
~~ David Whyte
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We have crossed the threshold into December. The darkest month of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. We are in deep Water season now—the element of winter in Chinese Medicine, the time of maximum yin, when all of nature turns inward to rest in the fertile darkness.
This is the season of incubation. Of seeds held in the dark soil. Of potential waiting beneath the frozen ground. Of wisdom so deep and ancient that it needs the quiet of winter to be heard.
November asked us to clear the way—to release what had completed, to make space for what wants to emerge. We practiced homecoming: returning to ourselves by letting go of physical clutter, emotional weight, mental noise, and the stories that no longer fit who we are becoming.
Now, in December, we remember.
Not in the nostalgic sense—not looking backward with longing or regret. But re-membering in the deepest sense: putting ourselves back together. Reclaiming the parts of ourselves we forgot. Recognizing the wisdom that was never actually lost—only buried beneath years of conditioning, trauma, and the relentless noise of a culture that profits from our forgetting.
What You Inherited – And What You Are Ready to Release

“Until you make the unconscious conscious,
it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
~~ Carl Jung
Greetings to all my precious people!!
Last week, we began the work of homecoming by clearing physical space – honoring the body as the sacred vessel we arrived on the earth with.
Many of you wrote to share what you cleared and what you noticed. The common thread? When external space cleared, emotions started moving.
Grief. Anger. Relief.
Sadness for what was lost. Gratitude for what remains.
This is not an accident.
