I’m nervous. My parents, my dad especially, are 80-ish and not in good health, and this morning, I woke from the “death dream.” I’m not sure how far back it goes on my mother’s side of the family, but I know I’ve had them since I was a little girl. Dreaming of the Dead.…

Hearing—and Listening— to Your Spirit Guides

—

by

in Chakras, Relationships

“I wish my angels and spirit guides were as clear in speaking to me as yours are to you.” The last thing the minister says to me in our impromptu counseling session floors me. I’m the one doing the counseling-something that’s occurring more and more-but clergy give and give of themselves…

Breaking In Another Magickal Necklace

—

by

in Chakras, Health

I’m breaking in a new magickal necklace. If it doesn’t break me in first! I’ve never cared much for diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, pearls. No, give me amethyst or jade or turquoise or any of hundreds of other gemstones that call to me. For years, I’ve worn my jewelry and worn it with magickal …

An Interesting “Bash”

—

by

in Chakras, Energy, Relationships

Somebody sent me an online blurb bashing a book of mine originally written in 1995. It was a recent comment. The bash was for a couple of reasons, primarily things the protagonist said which did sound pretty weird out of context…and for a sentence fragment and misplaced modifier. You know, I really hate it when…

Miracles and Marriage Expectations

—

by

in Chakras, Energy, Grief, Psychic

Six women have me thinking about marriage…again. About why people get married, women in particular. Every now and then, I have to pull out my old feelings about it and take a look and see what’s changed and what I really want and really examine any leftover negative con- notations about the “institution” of marriage.…

Finding My Rhythms

—

by

in Chakras, Empaths, Energy, Psychic

The body’s natural rhythms should be discovered and respected, whether it’s sleeping, eating, ovulating…whatever. I’ve had problems with insomnia for several years but always just dealt with it. During the break-up of my marriage, I had to resort to sleeping pills—something I’d never done before—because I couldn’t get my mind to stop grinding long…

CLICK: Fast-Forwarding Through Life

—

by

in Chakras, Empaths, Energy, Grief, Relationships

The movie I saw yesterday struck a nerve—it was a comedy that had me in tears, and that surprised me. It reminded me of something I discovered when my dad was in the Intensive Care Unit several years ago and I got to see a lot of dying patients and see what was important to…

Wandering Through Metaphysical Houses

—

by

After the girls left for Canada this morning, I spent a little time in meditation. I did a little “house-wandering,” which I sometimes do without expecting to. I can’t control yet where I go. It just happens—and it often feels like I’m called there rather than aiming to go there. These are really physical-seeming …

Frankincense, Rose Oil, and Hearts of Gold

—

by

I have mixed emotions tonight, and I can probably blame most of it on the fact that my daughters leave in the morning for an extended trip and I won’t see them for a while. I enjoy my teens so much and it gets lonely without them. We had our Summer Solstice fire tonight instead…

Spells That Backfire & Wonky Magick

—

by

“What I’ve discovered,” the High Priestess says, leaning in close to me, “is that doing magick for others re- quires total unconditional love for them. Don’t you agree?” I do. There are precious few people I’ve done magick for and who have asked me to do it for them, and it’s always been at a…

Live Music — Another for the Wish List

—

by

It’s a Thursday night, spaghetti is cooking for a little gathering, and I have live music in my house. Three guitars, drums, piano. This has been so rare to have music other than what I’ve made myself or Aislinn with her flute. But there’s a little band of musicians jamming and laughing and I can…
