The Mysteries

Sounds like an exploration of the ancient Greek mystery cults which were of great interest to me earlier in life, but instead what I’m referring to now are fiction crime novels written by skilled wordsmiths. There are many authors in that CRIME MYSTERY genre and darn few that are truly gifted at writing. And IContinue reading “The Mysteries”

Beliefs and Concepts

“Our beliefs and concepts are the greatest obstacles to awakening.”   (AwakenTheWorld) *** This won’t be another rant against organized religions, although it’s clear how detrimental I feel that many of them are by discouraging an individual’s self-inquiry and personal consciousness development. We can actually be biased and closed-minded about most anything that we encounter inContinue reading “Beliefs and Concepts”

Wishing You Peace

This is the time of year when we gather with family and friends for good food, fellowship, and joy. At least that’s the intention of the year-end holiday season, but not everyone is so blessed right now. And while I do wish everyone an abundance of food, love, peace and joviality, I also know thatContinue reading “Wishing You Peace”

“To Make You Feel My Love”

“When the rain is blowing in your faceAnd the whole world is on your caseI could offer you a warm embraceTo make you feel my love…” Bob Dylan When I meditated on this lovely image for awhile, in my mind I heard Billie Joel singing this Dylan song’s title words, “To Make You Feel MyContinue reading ““To Make You Feel My Love””

“Summarize Yourself”

While reading a fiction book from the library, one of the book’s secondary characters, a gifted but older, acerbic author asked the main female protagonist some penetrating personal questions. She was the local academic community’s phenomenon—a young, doctoral-physic’s ‘coding’ genius who was attempting to computationally define the prime equation string for high-temperature super-conductivity. In theContinue reading ““Summarize Yourself””

Depth Plunge in Minutiae

As a jig-saw puzzle fanatic I can obsess for hours over a thousand random puzzle pieces spread across a card-table waiting for sense to be made from it all, because to me it’s a challenge and perhaps a metaphor for LIFE. What makes ‘the sense’ part you might ask in a puzzle or in LIFE?Continue reading “Depth Plunge in Minutiae”

Reality Challenged

Yesterday for some reason my head was all over the place and suddenly I was recalling a visual scene ‘memory’ from a TV show or a movie, so I watched it vividly replay in my mind; then I stopped and thought, “No, wait…that wasn’t a show or a movie that I saw that in, itContinue reading “Reality Challenged”

Like Dad

I was reminiscing about what my mother and grandmother taught me (Wrapping the Garden), but during the process failed to give my dad his due. If I was behaviorally similar to anyone—including my cliff-jumper Aries personality, it was to him—a fellow Aries.  My mother jokingly swore I was his actual birth-child because we were soContinue reading “Like Dad”

Responding to an ‘Initiation’ Crisis

“You never know what you are made of until you must face your greatest fears head-on.”  *** Different modalities or belief systems often talk about “initiations” as being the point where a young person is suddenly confronted by the sometimes cruel or grueling complexity of life itself. Many ‘coming of age’ stories talk about anContinue reading “Responding to an ‘Initiation’ Crisis”

Evolution in Action

As an energy empath I can tell you that these solar/cosmic energies coming in now (primarily through August, but also starting out September) are off-the-charts powerful. They are buzzy, frizzly, and electrifying.  As they flood throughout my energy field I’m lucky to get 2-3 hours of sleep a night because my body is just sizzlingContinue reading “Evolution in Action”

The Akasha

Alberto Villoldo was pushing a new book or course, and just sent out a newsletter that really explained the ‘cosmic energy environment at large’ better than he had previously, so I’ll lift a few sentences from that to share here: “…Clearly the indigenous people of the area (Amazon) knew something about health that we WesternersContinue reading “The Akasha”

Enlightenment on a Stick

Hey it is county and state FAIR season where dusty fairground aisles, so over-crowded with multi-food vendors, are hawking everything edible skewered on wooden sticks (and likely deep-fried to boot) for your epicurean exploration. And since I won’t be attending that precarious gastronomic adventure this year, I notice it has generously come to me insteadContinue reading “Enlightenment on a Stick”
