Greetings to all my precious people!
It is the beginning of February and the Spring season is not far behind! In the Celtic traditions, the first day of February is known as “Imbolc” (im-bulk) and is celebrated from February 1 to sundown February 2. Imbolc marks the halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and is just one of several holidays highlighting some aspect of winter and sunlight, and heralding the change of seasons. continue reading
The Stories We Tell Ourselves
“Imagine a new story for your life and start living it.”
~~ Paulo Coelho
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We have just experienced the Full Wolf Moon – January 25, 2024 – the first full moon of the new year. It reached peak illumination at 12:54 p.m. ET on Thursday, according to NASA and it will look like a full moon until around midnight on Friday, January 26. Did you know that full moon names are based on seasons, historical crops and the behavior of animals? The Wolf Moon moniker for this month’s full moon came about because wolves were often heard howling in January, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac. Wolves howl to communicate with their pack and to protect their territory. It is thought that a Wolf Moon offers us greater opportunity for deep self-reflection about how we operate and communicate within our world. continue reading
Jumpstart January: The Pilgrimage to Self
Happy Blessed New Year to all my precious people!!
We are in the middle of January, the coldest month of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, and just past the first New Moon (January 11) of 2024. This is the deep yin of Winter, when Nature shows us the ancient patterns and cycles of the Earth. It is a time of quiet, a time of repose, a season of reflection and incubation. Nature is gathering up resources, from the soil, from our dreams, from the inspiration of conversations, or music, or poetry. We are in the midst of opportunities – to shed what no longer serves us, to lean into the callings of our heart and soul. continue reading

are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times . . .
The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits
in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.”
