Manifesting our dreams step by step

Manifesting our dreams step by step

My family is generally amused by my taste in movies. I abhor violence, and I fall asleep if a car chase is too long or things start blowing up. But, if a film has romance, animals or cute kids in it, I’m in! Last weekend, we found one called Dreamer that contained the latter two items, so I watched. The movie was loosely based on a true story about a horse that horse that ran The Breeders’ Cup race against all odds. It was a typical story line, the horse gets injured, slowly recovers, then a variety of hardships happen on the […]

Mother Earth and my wild heart

Mother Earth and my wild heart

“Away, away, from men and towns,To the wild wood and the downs, —To the silent wilderness,Where the soul need not repress its music.”—Percy Bysshe Shelley Last week I felt heavy, isolated, lonely.

The yellow-brown fluff balls, so tiny that you could nestle one in the palm of your hand, seem so fragile. And this year their vulnerability was proven. A skunk broke into their coop one night and killed all but one. Tragic. But let me tell you about the one! After the incident (and she was no longer super-tiny) we put her in […]

Full Moon Lessons

Have you looked at the sky the last couple of nights? It’s full moon time! The full pink super moon arrives Tuesday, April 7. Of course it is not actually pink; the pink moniker refers to the time that the pink phlox—one of the first flowers of spring—begins to bloom. Full moon time always feels like sort of a springtime or renewal for me, reminding me that I can reach toward the light for nourishment like a flower. I tend to have more vivid dreams and more intense meditations starting about 3-4 days before the moon is fully full. Through […]
