This could be the greatest moment ever known in the annals of the realm. If you show up for it.
This could be the triumph of Beauty and Truth and Good over the armies of ignorance and fear and self-hatred. If you show up for it.
This could be the moment when you take back your inner authority and rediscover the spirit of adventure and wild imagination and fierce play that is the essence of who you really are. Continue reading
One of the most valuable habits I’ve developed from the Book of Spells webinars is questioning the self-shaming inner voice statements I hear myself saying (or thinking).
Listen to these statements:
Chances are you say the same or similar things – out loud or in your head – fairly often. But are these true statements?
Sagittarius tells us that if we know the truth, the truth will set us free.

I’ve been crocheting a lot lately. It’s like a meditation, the repetitive back and forth, seemingly never ending rows growing and forming, something taking shape from nothing.

“In the silence that his life now is, let a community of care remember him by taking care of the living and building an alternative to what contributed to his degradation and destruction. There is no other world. There is just another way to live.” – Brother Michael
I can’t remember a time when suicide seemed so popular.
I know so many good people who are seriously bummed out right now. They look at the hate being spewed on the Internet and on the TV talk shows, at the violence being perpetrated on minorities, women, children, the LGBT community, and condoned by their fellow citizens.
And they feel despair. They feel the whole thing is hopeless. Continue reading
