Under a dark moon, I finished some spiritual work with a friend but in the process of saying goodnight, she pulled up a very old fear of mine. It was a simple phrase that I was not expecting and a feeling that I’m desperately trying [...]

I have a new way of looking at things that go wrong. I’m looking at them now as “course corrections.”
These can be simple things like the behavior of a server at a favorite family restaurant might be taken as a sign not to return-ever. Or [...]

My muse has stirred. She’s filled with the most unusual daydreams today, reminders of rituals performed and aid sent at the request of good friends, and she’s urging me to write songs that, on this Full Moon night, I have no music to. Yet. But [...]

Sometimes people behave a certain way.
It doesn’t matter how nice we are to them, they run from us, whether it’s out of habit or from being penned up. They scamper off in the other direction as fast as they can go, and you’re left wondering [...]

Eye opener #2 for my trip to Daytona Beach…women over 40 should meet men in person only.
Yeah, forget the Internet or any fix-up or any service where a woman’s age, real or imagined, is openly stated. According to several women I talked to, men will [...]

It’s been six days in Daytona Beach, and the epiphanies have been incredible. It’s totally changed the way I look at so many things. Of course, when realizations come that fast, they kind of boggle the mind and even hurt a little bit. This trip [...]

Often when we’re faced with decisions that we don’t want to make or decisions that aren’t clear, we ask for signs or look for them. “God, please if I’m supposed to do this, give me a sign and make it so clear that even I [...]

Things are coming to an end, unexpected things. I’m disconnecting from so many things that were so important before. Places, people, ideas. Things that don’t work anymore.
There is a sense of new beginnings, and there’s excitement that goes with that, even while there’s a strange [...]

2. Do not sell your soul.

I’d forgotten how beautiful and peaceful a sunrise over water could be. I’ve spent the last 20 years gloating over my wonderful sunsets. Maybe it’s time for a lot of change in my life.
But I don’t know if it’s sunrises or sunsets or just a [...]

“You’re a Pisces sun with Pisces rising and a Pisces Venus? That’s about as close as anyone can get to loving unconditionally.”
—An astrologer friend in a recent conversation with me
As further proof that I was born ahead of my time, my birth year is generally [...]

I’ve often been thanked for giving away ideas, lots of ideas including ideas that other people have made lots of money with. And instead of saying, “You’re welcome,” I’ve simply answered that it was no problem because I get lots of ideas and they’re free. [...]

How often have I heard that thoughts have power? Not just in reference to magickal intent, but also in terms of science and water molecules and the effect of a literal word of kindness or love taped to the jar of water?
Mentally, I’ve been on [...]

I’m shedding. Though I’m sure some people would say I’m molting.
But in any case, I’m shucking off huge chunks of my old life, whether I like it or not and whether I initiate it or not. It’s just happening.
I’m not quite sure what to make [...]

Granddaddy hasn’t been around as much in the past 8 or 9 months, but I figure he’s needed elsewhere or maybe he’s simply coming to me in different ways. It’s now been 11 years since he passed, and one of the things I learned from [...]

Now that the girls are back home, the energy in the house is back to normal and everything feels very solid again. Well, as solid as it gets these days.
But I’m seeing another purpose in how intensely off-kilter life felt last week. It’s a reminder.
It’s [...]

These interactive meditations are fascinating. It’s one step at a time, and then they take on a life of their own. And they always surprise me.
A few nights ago, while in a lengthy meditation, a man sat next to me but refused to look in [...]

Geez, how could I have forgotten?! For Pete’s sake, I was married to an atheist for 18 years!
What attracted me to this particular man was nothing physical or spiritual. It was strictly on the mental level.
It was his ability to talk about both science and [...]

I’m missing male conversation. It’s almost dried up in my life, and I didn’t realize it or why.
My day job has a heavy base of male colleagues, most of them married. Over my entire career, I’ve had friendly relationships with quite a few of them. [...]

The thing I love about astrology is looking at the pat- terns. And if there’s something intensely emotional going on with me, well, I don’t have look very far. All I have to do is check up on my horoscope—one of the real ones, not [...]

I have to get these meditations and dreams down on paper. There’s wisdom in them, if I can figure them out.
My morning meditation was long, long, long, but there are two parts in particular that were intense. Both concerned sitting close to men.
In one part [...]

I’ve never had any problem being alone, but I’ve decided I don’t necessarily want it all the time. Yeah. Yeah, I’m sure of that. I like having people around, people I adore, just not underfoot or hovering. But…around…in my sphere. Occasionally sharing my air.
It’s weird [...]

My puppy is teaching me about men. In particular, he’s answering some questions I’ve had since I was a little wee tiny girl. Like why is it men never seem the least bit worried about finding a bathroom?

One of Tom Petty’s songs that I’ve always liked is “You Don’t Know How It Feels” (to be me). Most people do feel alone or lonely or angry or depressed, and they think they’re all alone in their feelings. Some people wonder how other people [...]

On my way to work yesterday, I put aside my tape recorder and my dictation, and I had a little talk with the Gods about choices. “What am I supposed to do now?” I asked. “I know where I’m supposed to be, but I just [...]
