  • Revision Hell

    Revision Hell

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Crimes to the Third Degree. The revisions on Dark Revelations aren’t bad at all, not really.

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Crimes to the Third Degree. …There is a fence in a broad field, like in Georgia on the farm. The grass is green and high; weather’s pleasant.

  • I Don’t Know What This Is But I’m Grateful

    I Don’t Know What This Is But I’m Grateful

    I knew today the blocks were breaking free when Maggie asked me to ask my guides something and I immediately got a full-fledged interactive vision that I relayed to her. It just…came. And I think it was as powerful for me as for her. I didn’t realize I had this in me to give or…

  • Expectations, Intent, and Belief

    Expectations, Intent, and Belief

    Funny how you can look back on things through a different lens and see things you didn’t notice before. Honestly, if it weren’t for the spiritual work I did with Edain, I never ever would have seen this, never would have confronted this person, never would have learned the truth about some of the things…

  • Getting Zapped

    Getting Zapped

    One of my birthday presents to myself this year was to get zapped. In a good way. A very good way. When I was a teenager, a young teen at that, old women were always admonishing me not to wear so much “rouge.” But I wasn’t wearing any blush—at all. My cheeks were naturally rosy.…

  • A Wonderful Birthday

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Crimes to the Third Degree. Even though my girls were out of town yesterday, I had a marvelous birthday!

  • Changing Your Life  with Quantum Physics

    Changing Your Life with Quantum Physics

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Crimes to the Third Degree. One of the things I’ve learned in my experiments with quantum physics (which anyone can do!) and unified field theory is the importance of positive thinking in the direction your life takes and the laws of attraction.

    Transitions & Mid-Life (Crisis) Transformations

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Crimes to the Third Degree. All this pain is about my transition. This, I know. Doesn’t make it any easier, but at least I recognize it.

  • The Curtains Have Fallen

    The Curtains Have Fallen

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Crimes to the Third Degree. The curtains fell, and I am not “Kiddo” any longer. I never asked for the nickname and I’m not sure how or why it was in the collective consciousness of everyone within 3000 miles of me, but it no longer applies, and I…

  • The Shedding Instinct

    The Shedding Instinct

    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. From the Bookshelf Rite of Reckoning — a Southern witch returns home to secrets that…
