After seeing this Four Winds Society (Alberto Villoldo) https://thefourwinds.com/ image posted this morning shortly after I’d just read an email of shamanic classes posted by a friend who conducts her version of them herself, it stirred some memories of my own explorations in that field of study a couple decades ago during my two-year ShamanContinue reading “The Evolution Process: On Shamanism”

Considering Alternate Realities
(Art by 7th Dimension Energy ) I like the image above as representing the concept of alternate realities: where from the central core of our soul we spiral out spokes of infinite branches that develop their own version of potential lives. This consideration that alternate realities exist is hard to get your head around; andContinue reading “Considering Alternate Realities”
Pendulum Swings
In the back of my mind I was still mulling over the metaphoric aspects of the previous post on “Highlights and Shadows” when I listened this morning to Frank Bruni on Margaret Hoover’s “Firing Line” show where he solidified my thoughts on how we view our political and ideological extremism. While the skilled artist worksContinue reading “Pendulum Swings”
Highlights and Shadows
As a longtime artist, I know my way around tools of the trade: from drawings with pencils/pens/charcoal to painting with watercolor, acrylics and oil. In college I was primarily a woodworker with woodcuts and sculpture, but I leaned toward functionality over pure aesthetics, which meant more of a useful framed construction and practical creations, likeContinue reading “Highlights and Shadows”
Quasars
“A quasar (/ˈkweɪzɑːr/ KWAY-zar) is an extremely luminous active galactic nucleus (AGN). It is sometimes known as a quasi-stellar object, abbreviated QSO. The emission from an AGN is powered by a supermassive black hole with a mass ranging from millions to tens of billions of solar masses, surrounded by a gaseous accretion disc. Gas inContinue reading “Quasars”
Being Human
“This being human is a guest house—every morning is a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all. Treat each guest honorably. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing and invite them in. Be grateful forContinue reading “Being Human”
Surviving the Storm
Evidently my intuitive energy-awareness is still able to pick up similar inputs to what Lee Harris is intuiting. He covers much of the same ‘flushing out the old energies’ aspects that I mentioned in my previous post, but also gives it broader context for you to consider so perhaps it might make more sense toContinue reading “Surviving the Storm”
Flushing the Old Energies
To me this seems to be a time of revisiting and then releasing the old memories and energies associated with those memories. Could be due in part to the lunar and solar eclipses energetically affecting everyone right now, or it might be just the dimensional time-shifting in general occurring behind the scenes as I’ve mentionedContinue reading “Flushing the Old Energies”
Expectations and Disappointments
Hey, don’t we all have certain expectations on all aspects of our lives, and then feel the subsequent disappointments that naturally accompany those unmet expectations whether they were realistic or not? Maybe we expected our lives to turn out as some fantasized version of happiness and prosperity, but it just didn’t happen for us. OrContinue reading “Expectations and Disappointments”
They DO Exist!
“They DO Exist!” For those familiar with holiday commercials that sounds like the Santa Claus/M&M’s Christmas Eve meet up by the fireplace and tree. For me, I’ve been working at this ‘other dimensions exist’ realization for at least three decades; plus I’ve also read the book mentioned above, so I was not a newbie onContinue reading “They DO Exist!”
Freedom of Response
If you haven’t yet read Viktor Frankl’s book Man’s Search for Meaning, I suggest you soon do so. Frankl was an Austrian psychiatrist whose entire family was taken and eventually deported to Auschwitz, the World War II German prisoner of war labor camp for captured Jews. He was one of the few who survived afterContinue reading “Freedom of Response”
Sitting in Your Soul
NICABM (National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine) offers Facebook image blurbs to encourage healthy living and enhanced mental resilience; plus occasionally offering online classes and speaker summits that I’ve participated in previously. Today’s image above is focused on the importance of MINDFULNESS with the Ram Dass quote: “When you are down hereContinue reading “Sitting in Your Soul”
