We exist. We ARE. We live and die, and somewhere in-between the two, we learn. WHAT we learn depends on so many factors such as our living environments, our support teams on earth and beyond who protect us and nurture our growth, and that soul spark within us that drives us forward toward some unseenContinue reading “Acknowledging Ourselves”

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”
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”
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”
It’s Been Strange
Sometimes I wonder what makes this time—this particular age of humanity—any different than other periods. With our own limited-longevity perspectives, it is hard to compare other more distant time periods to our current age. We only have historical inscribed-stone artifacts or scrolls or ancient tomes to review for that comparison, and since we weren’t aroundContinue reading “It’s Been Strange”
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”
Wrapping the Garden
I must admit this picture did make me chuckle, and while I don’t think it personally applies (others might) I can certainly relate to its inference. I’m not Methuselah, but I’ve been around long enough to know the workings of the world myself by now. Anyway, it’s late August here—nearing fall in the northern hemisphere,Continue reading “Wrapping the Garden”
Cycles and Patterns
The more days that accumulate behind me, the more patterns in my life I can discern. I recognize that like the image above, our life spans flow not in neat straight lines from the moment of birth to our eventual demise, but instead they flow in spirals slowly circling round us like the earthContinue reading “Cycles and Patterns”
Relearning
The new literacy? Maybe in a ‘retraining for a new vocation’ sense, but to ‘learn, unlearn, and relearn’ are actually personal survival skills developed over the years as one faces every new dawn while striving to see the sun peacefully setting at that same day’s end. We all know that life is tough for thoseContinue reading “Relearning”
“Whether summoned or not, God will be present” – CG Jung
I’ve been a long-time fan of Carl Gustav Jung after reading his autobiography, Memories, Dreams, Reflections. So basically here I’m just passing along info sources and helping others to see that ‘beliefs’ in general are important to how we think of ourselves and consider our purpose in the world, or even more so in howContinue reading ““Whether summoned or not, God will be present” – CG Jung”
