Much To Be Grateful For


We were away five days for an early Thanksgiving family gathering in Southern California – primarily Ventura County – and have settled back already, readying for continued upcoming feasting and fun for the long weekend. It was quite the contrast going from white wonderlands of our alpine home, to temperatures in the 70’s with very different terrain.

You can see a bit of that shift in these before trip and during trip photos.

My life always seems to oscillate between extremes, as a way to literally work with duality and integration. Those Pisces fish aspects of myself are always workin’ it, set on how to harmonize division as one integrated experience.

These are some of the vistas and surroundings we left.

These are some of the places we found ourselves in while away.

And this is some of the beauty of the in between – our road trip.

We managed to find some good hikes with decent variety and Fall colors, and even found ourselves walking the beach of Malibu where it seems my Oregon time was still wanting to linger with me, as a sealion found his way to us and I was led to quite the jackpot of agates and some quartz.

I was actually floored by the agates because in all the years I lived in So Cal I never found any – I was born, and lived the majority of my life, there. In fact, a lot of old memories were circulating and a lot of continued deep closure was taking place.

Whispers of the energy and messages from our Summer were definitely wanting me to remember – the new must begin.

It was a nice little break and great to see Dave’s family since we don’t get to very often.

Our time was filled with great meals – vegan extravaganza restaurant immersions – hiking, a couple of shows Dave’s dad and step mom surprised us with, and just hanging out. It gave us a lot of good quality time with all of them – his dad, stepmom, brother, our sister-in-law, and niece.

The shows were awesome – a family theatre young artists performance of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (who doesn’t love a magickal wardrobe portal that whisks you off to Narnia?) and a spectacular classical music performance (Ode to Joy – Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with a really fantastic composition to kick it off that mixed Western Classical Music and Hindustani Classical Music traditions).

It was especially sweet to have more time than usual with Violet – our niece, whom I’ve shared about before. She’s growing up fast and is becoming quite the little lady with a wide range of passions and talents. It will be interesting to see where she’s led, but for now it’s just fun to see things through her eyes.

She and I always have a lot of connective threads that we share and she’s big on fashion, just like her Auntie. She and I are always gathering faery treasures we find and will often show up wearing the same color, similar things, and even wore our hair the same way one night without knowing it.

We also both love rabbits – in fact she has a couple of old stuffed rabbit friends she brought along on the trip to sleep with.

The two of us just HAD to take a photo in front of both of the giant painted rabbits we found at two separate locations. I shared the second one above, which was outside the family theatre. And this is the other that was outside a restaurant we ate at, right before that – my favorite photo of us ever!

I just love her!

We miss them all already, but are very grateful for the time we got to spend with them, as the most important things include being with those you love and making the most of the now since tomorrow is never promised.

Thanksgiving day we plan to be with my family – mom, dad, and brother. I’m sure we’ll be immersing in the usual warmth and festive feasting, as is my parent’s signature way! Then we have two more gatherings to come after that – my tummy is already feeling full thinking about it lol!

Since I’ll likely not blog again until some time after that (so won’t be backtracking on Thanksgiving – onward and forward!), at least we did manage to get these photos of me and my parents before we left on our trip.

I was at their already-Autumn/Thanksgiving-decorated house awaiting Astrid to come out of her mini ear surgical procedure and luckily they live close by so the hours were well spent without focusing on wondering about my sweet girl.

My mom is such a cutie, isn’t she? We’re always laughing!

I’m happy to report that Astrid continues to do well and she and the kitty babies are all continuing to enjoy the warmth of our home on the forest surrounded in white blankets of magick. You can see Astrid and Sweet Pea by the big window and Boojum on the couch.

They all love looking out the windows, but Astrid is especially fond of looking out at her realm from beneath the giraffe temple.

She actually received some fun, bunny-themed, early Christmas gifts the day before we left and was so excited to explore them (see two bottom photos below). I loved making it special before having to leave her and was so happy to find her in prime Astrid mode upon returning (see two top photos below).

I’ve been immersed in things so I’m still laying a bit low these days, and that’s included that theme of endings to beginnings.

The kitties have also been in on full-circle-tying-up of things and actually had their first vet appointment in quite some time, just as precautionary since they’re getting up there in age. We’re grateful they never have issues, but just thought it a good idea that everyone have a wellness check. Awaiting on blood results, but so far everything checked out and only Sweet Pea will be needing a teeth cleaning. Not bad for two nearly 16 year-olds.

Individual wellness has continued to be a priority for us, and I continue to also focus on living the fullest in each moment. Nature time is always on that priority list and whether away or home, you’ll find us there. Dave has already had his first two ski days and I plan on joining today. The forecast is showing a lot more snow on the way beginning Monday, so this year is starting off well in the moisture department – AND the magickal one too!

Our experience with bear energy has also continued, as just before we left we found a bunch of bear tracks in the snow – a first!

This was the same location we had been a week before where we saw a momma and two cubs exploring – evidence that they haven’t hibernated yet, as the snow came earlier this year.

Speaks to me of some last preparations and explorations, before hunkering down, which is very reflective of my own experience.

We’ve also been witnessing consistently amazing sunsets nearly every evening since the snow has graced us. I can’t remember seeing so many stunning skies – and that has included the day too. But evenings have been explosions of color over the lake, which we can see above and through the trees of the forest.

Late afternoon walks out back just before the sun sets have become a thing as well, so we never miss a beat between sky art show displays or the snow taking on pink, violet, periwinkle, or peachy tones.

And, as mentioned, even the day skies have been quite something.

Sun halos, rainbow bursts, Moon beams, and gateways galore…..

It’s hard not to have hope and feelings of being on the precipice of something.

But mostly I’m quiet these days.

And the early snow mirrors the stillness within.

These days my voice feels to be shifting as well – by that I mean the way I express myself and what I feel guided to express through the vehicle of me. I know that is a big part of the changes happening. And I sense it’s something others are going through too.

Where ever you find yourself, I hope that you can find peace with where you are and who you are right here and now.

The more we feel that embrace within, the more I feel we’ll embrace much more without.

Abundant gratitude to all of you for being here and being you.

Sending warmest wishes for the holiday season upon us and heaps of hopeful seeds for every day now, then, and to come to be nurtured in the vortex of your heart.

Eclipse Shifts, Snow Bunnies & Saving Bunnies


How has everyone been feeling around this last Full Moon Lunar Eclipse?

And even just in general, how are you holding up?

It’s important these days to check in with yourself and really see what you’re feeling. The body has a lot of wisdom to share and your emotions, if addressed lovingly, will reveal to you their truth.

This Eclipse opened another doorway for some radical shift potentials and the cycling through of endings and beginnings. It continues to be a potent time to stay aware of any realizations, openings, and insights that you receive without pushing them aside. Some breakthrough potentials are within reach if you’re willing to let go of energies that have become stagnant and any false securities that may have been crutches or subduing the real song of your heart.

I continue to feel that as we take the steps, the fog will clear. But it’s by moving that you actually get to the other side and have greater ability to step into the new version of yourself you are recreating – and the new version of the world at large that you want to experience.

I’ve been hearing a continuing theme from more people than I can count that speaks to dramatic personal shifts being implemented. People are realizing they need some major time-outs for personal wellness and healthier life choices.

While more and more people are beginning to feel they’re finally thriving, there are so many people I know and keep hearing about through the channels that have become completely burned out, depleted, and realizing that the way they’ve been going for years, and fell into believing they needed to operate, simply won’t cut it anymore. Physical challenges are popping up left and right, mental anxiety and breakdowns, along with emotional turmoil that can no longer go uncared for are literally screaming for attention. Stress is on all-time high and exhaustion has finally run its course. And I’ve seen this with both women and men. Although, I do happen to know of a lot of female entrepreneurs with their own businesses who have had to completely step back, reassess, change the mode of operation of their businesses, and integrate self-care protocols on every front from nutrition and exercise, to counseling in the spiritual and shamanic fields, and learning how to create greater balance all around.

This balance being one that speaks to a more naturally harmonious lifestyle where personal needs are a priority and seeing how that guides the creative flow of their business, instead of overextending themselves in all directions of what they thought they needed to be doing until there’s nothing left to give. They’re discovering more meaning in their lives by listening to their needs, which in turn enriches their relationships, family, daily life, and the quality, as well as content of their creative output – all realigning to a reflection of a healthier inner world and the relationship they are honoring and giving importance to that is blossoming from personal integration of their layers that went untended to until now.

There is much shifting in some really enriching ways even though these aren’t the stories that get the spotlight these days.

And although the changes have also spoken to losses on one side of the spectrum, there’s been incredible gains on the other because this is the cycling continuum of energy.

I definitely felt this Blood Moon’s energies keeping me more alert and energized the two nights before it, which has continued forth. I’ve also continued experiencing some odd alignments that are too literal and precise not to be connected to recent energies and specific days for both Dave and myself. Actually, since 10/31 these kind of precise experiences have been revving in extra uncanny ways. And that’s saying a lot since I’ve experienced quite a lot of wild alignments.

There’s an interweaving of both an acceleration of things and time taking place, but within that, I’m also experiencing a slowing down happening…yes, that’s possible. We can bend time to move fast or slow depending upon how we use each moment – I’m sure you’ve experienced this before. A few minutes of silent meditation or super presence with something feels like an hour or even breaks the barriers into timelessness. And hours or a day can go by in what feels like minutes. I notice it much more intentionally and those experiences of everything making sense and expansive cohesion are becoming the norm.

Today being 11/11/22 felt like a day to highlight some of this, as it’s a potent portal for manifestation and transformation.

So, what are your intentions and dreams? Please don’t be afraid to say them aloud. This is a gateway of alignments and the streaming through of support for the potentials you seek to experience.

Repeating number sequences are something that never cease to show up for many of us – you know those clock, odometer, receipt, addresses, license plate numbers, etc. that blare at you? I know, for me, it’s been nonstop for years and it just constantly increases with a variety of them showing up, as well as many sequential numbers that speak to me of everything lining up and progressing step-by-step in perfect alignment…that things are on track and will come to fruition.

Things may seem in disarray or chaotic, but I feel the train really is on track to unknown, but expansively rich destinations. It may boil down to which train you’ve chosen to get a ticket on, but no matter the train, it’s headed where the energy is being fueled.

And in that case, what you fuel is not really that much of a mystery when recognized as an energy stream. And, you can always jump tracks to a different train if you want at any time.

Since October 31st a lot of big things have been culminating in our lives here. It’s been a busy period, but greatly rewarding to put in the efforts. This can be a busy time, as year end approaches and holidays roll in, but it’s also the time when carving out space for yourself becomes vital.

I find myself finally seeing the simultaneous end and beginning point for another phase in my life and that feels really good.

It hasn’t come without a lot of twists and turns and learning even more about myself along the way. That said, the end of this year feels to hold a really clear freshness and I’ve drawn the lines to support that. I’m excited about the shifts taking place for my projects and focuses – I’ve had an ear open for inspiration to take me in uncharted directions.

Speaking of freshness, the alpine landscape here has been extremely invigorating with the continual snow we’ve been receiving. November has really kicked off the white wonderland that has been reflective of putting everything to rest, while experiencing the sparkly inspiration that floats in on each snowflake.

We’ve received probably about a foot and a half from the latest storms that just ended Wednesday at our elevation and there’s been 3-4 feet at the highest mountain tops. Pretty good for the start of November. In fact, for the first time in a while, our local ski resort will be opening tomorrow, the 12th. That means ski snow bunny and peaceful integration time on the mountain tops begins.

The photos laced throughout this post are some of my favorite from our snow adventures recently both on trail destinations near us and just behind our house in the forest.

I hope they bring you some of the bursts of wowness that we’ve been experiencing and drawing from for daily inspiration.

Yesterday was a big day for Astrid and me, so we’re laying low today. I’ve mentioned before that she’s one amazing rabbit when it comes to strength and health and luckily her only challenge is that she happens to produce extra ear wax that can become hard for her to release fully from her ears. Long story short, she had to go under for the first time yesterday for preventative measures of removing one really big ball of wax that was blocking 80% of an ear canal (too deep to remove unsedated without risking damage) and a smaller one in the other ear that was found in the process. Neither had developed any issues or infections, as I caught things in time and trusted my intuition to keep an appointment for her even though she stopped demonstrating curious ear behaviors.

All that said, she got through it with flying colors and didn’t skip a beat in bouncing right back. But it’s definitely no fun to run to the vet twice in a week, an hour’s drive away skirting snow storms and to be probed in your ears, or to have any kind of sedated procedures.

But it’s just such incredible ears of hers that speak to me of telepathic waves opening to deeper levels of communication, connection, and clarity.

I’m so grateful for all the support we have and that she’s one super bunny.

I also love how she and I share the same color hair and fur…a match made in heaven!

Some of that support came in the form of our animal messenger friends, including Frith who came running by our room right before heading off to the early appointment yesterday, wanting to let his friend Astrid know that he and the rabbit collective would be with her. Then a large marsh hawk appearing for me right after I dropped her off. And upon picking her up and making our way home, there were two bald eagles sitting in a tree together, followed by another large marsh hawk. We have a very unique relationship with these sentinel birds that is unusual given the dynamics of predator to prey. But for me and all of my bunnies, they have always protected them and kept vigil over important procedures, showing up as messengers of everything being in alignment between Earth and Cosmos.

And speaking of hawks….this one above came to me this past weekend just outside our bedroom. This was the best photo I could get of him with the highest zoom on my camera, but clearly defines his stunning silhouette.

He was fluttering around on the ground and from tree to tree, wanting to get my attention. Then came to land here looking like the regal Horus himself.

But going through all of this with Astrid, as we come to year-end here shortly, had me reflecting on Astrid’s and my connection with her rabbit rescue, Save A Bunny – where Joy also was adopted from and the place that Nestor led me to in the first place. End of year is a time we like to give to rescues and organizations, and Save A Bunny is always on my list, as they do amazing work there. I hold Marcy, SAB’s founder, dearly in my heart. She’s a very special soul whom I admire greatly and am grateful to for connecting Astrid and me together.

This gave Astrid and me an idea last night about raising some extra support for them, and so we were inspired to auction off our last original painting that hasn’t yet found a forever home – Gem of the Emerald Forest, featuring Panda animal messenger totem.

Gem of the Emerald Forest – Original Available 24″ x 30″

Synchronously, Panda’s message fits a lot of what I shared today in theme:

Pandas are rare gems that symbolize many valuable things we can learn from. Being generally solitary, they teach us the importance of solitude, going within and understanding the value of slowness and being still to receive. They are very agile tree climbers giving them the unique ability as a totem to tap into higher knowledge and teach us soul development. They teach us balance and finding that center that learns to integrate opposites in harmony. Their black and white colors depict the energy of the Yin Yang Symbol, indicating the importance of this balance between masculine and feminine energies, East and West, and anything of duality. They also draw our attention to the need to create more balance in our immediate lives. These contrasting colors represent differences in cultures and how we can break the barriers and boundaries, realizing we are one global community. They also teach us adaptability, connection to the Plant Kingdom, and Eastern beliefs.

Pandas are also masters of being elusive, despite their bold, contrasting colors and so they point us to where we are feeling a lot of inner conflict that may be causing us to “hide” rather than allow ourselves to shine and be seen. In this way they remind us to nurture self-encouragement and cultivate soul nourishment in order to reach our fullest potentials – basically, to realize the gifts of your uniqueness and to stop hiding.

Pandas are adorable and make you just want to run up and cuddle them, however they are also very strong and not to be messed with. In this way they teach us to be mindful of making judgments and not to judge a book by the cover. There is always more than meets than eye and by taking panda’s advice of going within, you will find the heart answers you need.

As a very exotic being, panda cultivates our love for the exploration of exotic lands and appreciation of different cultures. Pandas have always been highly treasured in China and because of their history of China gifting Giant Pandas as diplomatic gifts to other countries, they represent diplomacy, peaceful relations and have also come to be ambassadors of good will and conservation.

Pandas hold many hidden treasures for us to embrace. It is clear to me why this lovely being has channeled through in painting #6. Many of us are working with these aspects of integration, balance, working through inner conflicts to find peace, revealing our authenticity with courageous vulnerability, honoring inner wisdom and realizing the importance of times to withdraw in order to reconnect, seeing things with unconditionally loving hearts, and uniting as Global Human Beings.

The Emerald Forest habitat this panda resides in symbolizes the Heart Chakra that has the ability to be the balancing integrator of opposites (between body and spirit, male and female, persona and shadow, ego and unity) and acts as an energetic “bridge” between the lower and upper chakras. It is from this place of peaceful centeredness that love emanates as divine power. As you see by panda’s wisdom, this energy is very much reflected in what it has to teach.

I’m sharing this painting, once again, during this doorway of change to see if it speaks to anyone who is working with these energies and that would like to support the rabbits in need – many of them special needs rabbits like our dear Cosmo was.

I plan to donate the full amount of any potential winning bid to Save A Bunny for Christmas, minus shipping expenses.

Unfortunately, paintings of this size are not inexpensive to have packaged and shipped safely. Packaging and shipping runs $150-200 alone. This is within the U.S. only.

So for that reason, I will be starting the bids at $150 (I’ll cover any bit of overage on my end) and then anything over $150 that might be bid, will all go to Save A Bunny.

This is an original painting – not a print – and is the last original painting I have available. It was part of my series, “Universal ARKitecture” that featured animal spirit messengers for these New Earth cocreative times.

If you feel called to this painting and helping the bunnies, please CONTACT ME with your bid/love donation.

I’ll keep the auction open through 11/20 at which time if there have been any bids, we’ll contact the new guardian with highest bid and prepare your panda partner for his forever home. I say him, as he reminds me of Cosmo with both his coloring and loving essence.

It’s SO hard to capture the colors, details, and energies of paintings in photos, as they are always so much more rich in person.

We also decided to add a few other little options that will also be added to our donations to Save A Bunny if they find their forever homes too.

These include the following three framed pieces Astrid and I just created last Friday with feathered messengers while we were making some for ourselves and the sacred space here at our home on the forest.

I’ve transformed the energy of our bedroom and just love all the new freshness flowing through!

These are 8 3/4″ x 10 3/4″ frames filled with the energy of channeled bird spirit totems that were found/gifted as naturally shed feathers.

We call them Flames of a Feather and they feature a collective of bird spirits offering their support as you walk through the sacred violet flame of transmutation.

They are each $55 and the amount over the shipping cost will all be donated to Save A Bunny as well.

The first one features the Woodpecker family – a variety of Woodpeckers including Northern Flicker with our song bird friend the Steller’s Jay joining them.

Woodpecker and Steller’s Jay Flames of a Feather – SOLD

The second features the Grouse and Pheasant family joined by our friend the female Mallard.

Grouse, Pheasant & Female Mallard Flames of a Feather – SOLD

And the last features the Macaw family of Yellow Collared and Hahn’s (Red-Shouldered) Macaws (gifted to me by a dear friend’s Macaws I got to connect with)

Macaw Flames of a Feather – SOLD

We are also going to do the same with the last two remaining Sacred Offerings.

The light plum/rosey wine colored bottles of crystalline magick can be found at the link below.

The amount over their shipping cost will also be added to our Save A Bunny Christmas donations. They are each only $33.

Crystal Closet

Thank you in advance for any and all love and support you share for our friends in rabbit bodies. They’ve saved me as much as one might say I saved some of them.

And thank you, once again, simply for being here at this fertile time on Earth and in our lives. Your friendship is invaluable and our connection, near or far, is carried in our hearts always.

Slipping Into November


As we sit here in the middle of our first real snow storm, I’m already looking out the window at 2-3 inches for our 6600 altitude – much more at top of the mountain for sure.

You might remember that we had our First Snow – just an enchanted dusting – on October 22nd, which happened to be the 14th year anniversary of our first date. We need the moisture and I love the beauty of it all, so no complaints here. It also helps prep the barren ground for Spring and cover up the saw dust from the tree removal.

This current snow fall is supposed to go through tomorrow afternoon and then said to bring ongoing on-and-off-again rain and snow showers through the 15th. We’ll see, but it appears an early Winter is wanting to appear this second half of Autumn as we enter the November gateway – something that I was sensing from our encounters with animals, that unpredictable weather was ahead and an unusual Winter.

Just as I was writing about the animal encounters our resident big wild bunny friend, whom I believe is Frith, just popped his head in at the sliding glass door to our Wonderland realm and where I sit typing this. He then went over to the fence and with glee turned around and did a binky and joyful leap with zig-zag across to the next sliding glass door of the other room and then off under the fence to the forest. It was the CUTEST thing ever to see him so excited about the snow, his little cotton tail bouncing about like a snowball, and his coming to tell Astrid and me how happy he was. He’s grown into quite the spirited prince of the Forest Portal. I had no time to capture his cuteness, but here are his tracks.

I love that he showed up today after connecting so much with Cosmo yesterday. I feel a bit of his spirit in Frith.

And to continue with the animal encounters theme, we’ve actually now seen a total of ten bears in just a couple of weeks, which is more than we’ve ever seen over the years living at this house. On a Halloween/Samhain hike we saw another three – a momma and two cubs (although I only was able to capture a brief snap of momma and one cub here) hidden behind the tree branches at center of the two tree trunks.

This hike also showcased another sun halo, this time with some rainbow infusion, and some beautiful between-the-veil energy vistas like these below.

Even the day before Halloween/Samhain was extraordinary. The landscapes we biked along were dressed in rich layers reminiscent of the web of life.

Everything I see is mesmerizing and like a mirror reflection of both the interconnected fascia of my body and the interwoven frequencies that mesh together the very fabric of my being. If I find sites like these enchanting, then so too is the consciousness they are mirroring within me.

I just love it all and the tall, golden grasses of this season really evoke feelings of lightness within, like golden feathers of love and grace.

They remind me for some reason of Ancient Egyptian practices at death – something interesting to ponder at this portal.

Upon death, the heart was weighed against the feather of Maat – goddess of truth and justice. The scales were observed by Anubis and the results recorded by Thoth.

On Samhain I also found this rock pile amidst the feathery golden grasses that were like a sacred burial or sacred marker. It felt like a beautiful message since I had been thinking of Cosmo so much on this day. It was a sweet stack or cairn of rocks that someone had intentionally hand-placed at the base of the tree with a light colored small heart rock at center. It’s hard to tell in the photo, but it was a perfect little heart.

This heart was supported by an almost triangular taller rock and surrounded by other rocks of all sizes. It didn’t matter that the heart was smaller than the others. The love it exuded was the focal point of this gathering, and each of the others helped radiate its power out. Thoth would definitely have had great words to record about this heart’s journey.

After our hike and a shared, celebratory feast out we ended the day with our Meditation and Mindfulness online gathering where I honored Cosmo and shared how he is my greatest teacher. I briefly talked about how he assists me daily in my own mindfulness practice by reminding me to just love more and open my heart more when met with any triggers, less than pleasant or debilitating experiences, or outside influences that could throw me off balance.

We’re conditioned to tighten and close up our hearts, perhaps even cut off our emotions or react in overblown ones, when we go through challenges. I’ve done that for sure, but learned that challenging myself to step back and open up more is much more helpful. Allowing love in is a choice that can lighten up any dark crevices if need be, even if only for yourself in that moment.

And then before getting into a sacred space for tuning in with the forest and trees, and all who have walked before us, Boojum joined me for a little Samhain faery witch fun, because sacredness is not just about seriousness or heaviness…the sacred lies within all experiences and that includes the sacred art of joy, whimsy, and lightness.

Even Astrid got in on the magick too, of course. Just look at how cute she is, loving her cosmic witch hat.

I’ll preface this by saying that one of my strengths is to share through the artist me, to you. My creative heart not only is an artist of creations made by hand or written from inspiration, but it also is an artist by way of what I see (through a camera lens for example) and how I feel I can move energy through via imagery and my own vehicle of expressions. In this way, helping to evoke more than I could simply by words and to help connect even more via the energy channels through the world wide web, which in many cases is all we have until telepathy becomes the mainstay again.

So with that said, here we go with another little impromptu creative share to empower those aspects of your inner uniqueness and courageous heart not to fear any aspect of your gifts and who you feel yourself to be.

Yesterday, I donned my favorite cosmic witch hat, a custom Samhain themed dress designed with block prints of crow wings, web, candle, hearth broom, bunch of thorns and rose hips, etc.), sweet bat pendant with sunstone, and witch necklace – hehe!

Boojum was actually more excited than it appears, as he kept coming back to me when I would put him down, wanting to ham it up with mom, but also because he remembers some sacred days shared in our lineage together.

He LOVED the attention and getting to be center stage.

And just look at his wide-eyed curiosity and excitement watching mom in the bottom left corner below, lol!

He’s a momma’s boy for sure!

He and I have quite a soul history together of sacred work, and if you knew the details you’d understand his fascination with me and how we “fit” together.

My sacred work these days is mostly focused on the alchemy of the heart, as it feels to support the greatest leaps in evolution for me – the kind of leaps that open doors where none seemed to exist…and the kind of doors I really want to travel through.

Days like these I’m reminded that a doorway opens each time I stretch my heart further and dare to create and feel outside of the box.

They also open the more I dare to be me.

It’s not always easy to hold your own vibration and feel differently than others around you, but it makes the greatest difference for you AND for them.

I hope that this new month, after Samhain’s opening doorway, can shed some light on the places within you that want more to be heard, seen, embraced, and loved. And maybe the veils between who you were conditioned to be, and who you really feel yourself to be, can become thinner too.

I’ll end this little slip through the veil with some words from Lee on the month ahead. Perhaps you’ll find some supportive threads from his themes for November. These include:

  • Ongoing global and personal shifts in power
  • Releasing Assumptions
  • Allowing your conscious bravery to appear and SHIFT the energy
  • Shedding or insulating? Balancing against the outer storm
  • Heart pain and grief becoming heart appreciation and openness
  • The dissolution of old conditions and programming = disorientation
  • “Why are you alive?” Have you decided why, or are others deciding for you?
  • Vision a new future for yourself and us all
