Tania Marie: Deep like the Ocean & Light as a Feather ~ A Transformative Journey In Egypt

While the golden womb of Autumn cradles my body and soul upon laying my feet back in the alpine realms once again, I feel held in the perfect embrace of patient unfolding.

Not more than five days of being back and seasons are already shifting with our first snow falling on the 14th of last week.

This is the earliest we can remember receiving so much snow, bringing six inches overnight to our 6600 elevation and waking the next morning to a stark contrast from the desert sands of Egypt we just returned from.

It’s been an incredible several weeks and these golden masterpieces of enchanted nature artistry, mirror the alchemy in my meditations since returning, as golden light energy has been a continued theme pouring through me.

That is, until the snow hit, but weather is swinging back to Autumn once again, while the white mountaintops hold the anchor for the future we walk toward.

Alongside settling in and taking my time to unwrap all that has happened, we’ve returned to hiking our familiar routes to breathe in the crisp air of fresh starts.

I went to the mountaintop with questions and what I found was everything I brought within me already. Answers are in our own hands.

I’ve been receiving an increase of more light and frequency codes since returning and tuning in with threads woven anew in my heart. These I can feel pulse through and the experience is an expansion and DNA shifts rearranging within.

Twice, I was given vision of key codes that slowly materialized in front of me as very intricate golden symbols, one piece at a time coming together to form them. They are almost like cosmic sigils holding light and sound that instantly recalibrate.

But I get ahead of myself, as a short rewind is in order to unpack some of the sacred journey a group of us gathered for in Egypt at the turn of seasons bookended by a New Moon Solar Eclipse and a Full Moon.

And before doing that, I wanted to send a huge thank you to all of you who were anchoring energies back in your own sacred spaces. We could feel you all weaving and holding this powerful gridded tapestry united with us and in fact heard from some people about exact alignments and visions that were unfolding at the same time as our group was going through things.

As you likely have guessed, this will be a long share even though I’m not sharing everything, which includes a lot of photo captures since some of you are more visual and they’ll tell the story even if you never read the words. It’s hard to place limits on things like photos, or even an expression, as that just doesn’t feel to be my path. Plus, being this is one of my most favorite places on Earth, I can’t keep a lid on the magick. And since I know some of you are thinking about visiting Egypt, and/or may never have the chance, this is a way to share the energy and you can travel there through your heart and meditations.

So, if you’re interested in the journey, you might want to grab your favorite beverage and wait until you have a moment to sit with this or skim it the way your heart guides.

I’ve been wondering how to convey things about this experience, but trusted that the way would organically show up once I was ready to sit down and the energy was ready to be written. What I know is that it’s being guided as coded weavings, rather than a detailing of everything that happened. The same goes for the photos I’ll be sharing, as you can imagine that three weeks with an artist’s eye and an energy guided heart would result in a thousand or so captures.

The result is an energy snapshot that pulls together the essence of this trip from my perspective. I also hope to impart some helpful information that might be supportive to anyone who I know is also wanting to experience Egypt at some point. Perhaps the shares will mirror and/or underscore things you were/are going through in coinciding, energetic expressions relative to your life and path during the same time.

It’s been a while since I last shared, but before we headed off to Egypt you might recall that Dave and I went camping with three of his high school buddies, one of our mutual friends, and four dogs – this equating to me hanging with five guys, three male dogs, and one female dog for four nights and three full days.

A group of five hikers and two dogs stand on a wooden bridge in a lush forest, with a waterfall visible in the background.

We were originally planning to backpack the backcountry here in the Tahoe area, but rapid weather shifts had us camping in Sequoia National Park in communion with Earth’s guardians and wisdom keepers instead.

A couple takes a selfie with a mountain view in the background.

This turned out to be a potent change and our last minute resiliency aligned us with some very grounded, ancient energies of the elder Giants that would support the journey ahead.

Embracing change is always key, as our higher selves know what is most harmonious for us.

This trip was relaxing, energizing, deepening, and mysterious with back-to-back long, climbing hikes of 7 to 8 mile treks each day, lots of nature gifts including feathers, quartz, and even finding some potent charm symbols left behind (see photo below) that were buried in the dirt of our campground that was literally a giant graveyard of up to 3000 year old Sequoia stumps rooted in the Earth (they were logged many years ago). Gathering around campfires every morning and night were our ritual, and look at the perfect phoenix and dragon that showed up in the flames one night (see photo below).

The energy and wisdom was still lingering from the energetic footprints left behind from these once towering masters. We were in a more remote area of the park and one of the hikes we did is the home of the highest elevation grove of Sequoias still remaining that are around 1500+ years old.

We were visited by a doe and two fawns one morning, a doe on one of the hikes, and experienced the strangest eerie animal calls and cries in the night that I researched may have been a small family of foxes or a pair of them. I was also visited by what I feel was likely a fox in the night that came by my side sniffing me out and pushing their head under the tent toward me. On our way home, I saw a beautiful dead fox on the road and this for me felt like a confirmation. So much fox energy was interesting and telling of magickal transformations at hand.

Our time with the Sequoias kicked off on the morning of the Pisces Full Blood Moon Total Lunar Eclipse, which added to the full circle of Egypt’s trip ending on the Aries Full Harvest Moon.

I had a few days relaxing at my parent’s house after the ancient Sequoias where Chamuel (the master Lemurian resides that I gave my mom years ago to anchor a grid between us) and then we were off to continue in the vein of that energy – returning to my ancient roots in Egypt.

I did keep a short journal of my experiences and thoughts, but I am only going to highlight some things, along with the main takeaways from it all.

As mentioned, the first two weeks would be a tour-led, larger group that combined people I knew with new connections and the last week with a smaller, closer knit group that journeyed with my dear friend Mody. In each case, the adventure bringing me in heart connection with sisters and brothers that made the journey rich.

This trip was very different from my previous two in 2007. Those two were at a different time in terms of world scene dynamics, and my personal spiritual growth journey.

In particular contrast, my first trip to Egypt was mostly private, which included a group of only five and pretty much experiencing every site with a private entrance free of anyone outside the group, or nearly no other tourists. I also went through the biggest physical and internal shifts, as a first trip can have the ability to ignite in a place like this.

The focuses on this trip also had a different lean that supported all of that for the people that joined, which wove together a mix of some private entrances with the colorful tapestry.

This trip was very actively “collective,” which I sensed from the get-go when accepting the invitation. There were a lot of group dynamics that were always shifting and morphing, and a lot of outside influences as well with greater contact with others.

All perfectly suited to what is currently needed and where my next steps are headed, and aligned with what I know to be my forte to work with. An active classroom for embodying peace within chaos at times, which we are all being provided opportunity to harness. This is true empowerment, as we will always be moving in and out of different experiences in life and the defining piece of that is how you navigate and reflect a resonance of your highest desire and intention within it.

This is the shift point.

Your power.

Your choice.

And what you choose and embody acts as an anchor and bridge for others.

So, while this trip was different than 2007’s journeys, the common thread for me underscored what I already knew – how Egypt is a heart center holding some of the greatest keys of awakening and empowerment for me in this lifetime in terms of supporting what I came here for.

And all that I can say is that I always feel my most powerful while I’m there, and after returning with codes I retrieved, these continue to infuse my days and life with that same power, where ever I am. It’s also one of the key spots where I know I continue to have roles with direct facilitating in collective ways.

We each have power spots and heart land areas across the globe that speak to us in unique ways. They hold frequencies that activate and initiate something within us when we merge our resonance within these soul ley lines. It is like a spark that ignites and transcends time and space, bringing us back into the wholeness and remembrance of who we are, layer by layer.

In returning to Egypt, I continue to receive new initiations into different and deeper personal gifts.

A woman standing in a narrow stone passage, arms outstretched against the walls, eyes closed, in a serene pose.

Egypt is not my only resonance, but I’ve experienced it as the most dramatic in vibrational frequency for my personal evolution and where my soul feels greatly cradled in familiarity and harmonic convergence. Hence, it’s no wonder I return so much and know I will again.

Places like Egypt hold an extremely heightened vibrational frequency that will touch each person who visits in a different way. The energy is that of an awakening on all levels, but this isn’t always experienced in the way our minds would like to dictate it.

It stirs everything within you to crack open and pour forth, both shadow and light, without filters as a means of helping you to embody greater wholeness. And it asks of us to be most vulnerable and embracive to all of that, experiencing it with greatest compassion, integrity, and humbleness – but always expressed in ways that you are ready for and that you, alone, choose how deeply you want to dance with.

Everyone’s experience will be different.

For some it works on subtle levels and small shifts that will likely go unnoticed unless deep presence is nurtured around your days to those changes that occur during and after your time in an area like Egypt.

For some it may manifest as physical symptoms, like a purge and cleanse while things are recalibrating and can be more intense based on filters or fight, or how deeply the energy has reached in your healing and integration evolution.

For some it may manifest as outward projections playing out, emotional outbursts or flows, irritability, or mental, emotional, and/or physical discomfort, as energy heightens the areas in need of most love and compassion within us.

For some it may manifest as ecstatic bliss, heightened euphoric feelings and senses, and overall increase in heart opening.

For some it may manifest as a kundalini awakening, opening of spiritual gifts, feeling new sensations or seeing visions, sudden epiphanies, out of body experiences, a deepened relationship to your higher self and the All/Source/God, etc.

There is no one or right way and it could be a combination of many of these or a variety of other things altogether.

All this to say, everyone’s experience is different in accordance to what each person is in agreement to accept, and where you can release attachment and judgment around how it needs to be, not compare it to someone else’s experience, and simply surrender to the hidden gifts however they manifest, the more you can support your unique experience to provide the most benefit for you.

I saw all of these variations play out during this trip and instantly for me I experienced this as a giant reflection of the collective world scene.

How perfect and not surprising.

And not surprising to me, also, why each of us were there.

My own role became clear immediately.

I also saw reflections of this energy dynamic on the road, which included the experience of driving and traffic, which is quite the feat there – the only other place I’ve seen as a wilder ride in that regard is Bangkok, Thailand.

I noticed how even my nervous system and initial reactions the first couple of days to the highways completely shifted into a place of surrender, peace, and equilibrium, as I worked with the energies consciously.

For me, I use what shows up as a way to both understand the bigger picture, as well as train myself how to put into practice tools that can support greater consciousness around how to shift energies. It’s an apprenticeship of spirit in body learning how to merge the gifts of each in every moment.

It takes practice, presence, and patience. And it’s not without challenge, but it does get easier with conscious intention brought to each moment. In such a power spot on the globe, like Egypt, everything can be heightened with extra clarity and extra potential, providing exact insights and opportunities for how we as individuals have the ability to work energetic dynamics that can ripple out.

Much of my experience on this trip was holding and shifting energies with intense presence. And interestingly, despite a very full, on-the-go, and decreased level of my usual sleep preferences, I was alert, found myself refreshed after smaller windows of rest, and able to sustain high levels of energy on a constant basis that I used both for myself and toward collective workings.

After sleeping just an hour or two, I would often wake thinking that I’d slept a full night, only to be surprised I still had more hours to sleep. Time was skewed for me throughout the journey, and I had no idea what day it was either.

I did have my own personal things, aside from the group-oriented energies, that I was tuning into and processing as well. And I figured out a way to manage both, which took a lot of focus.

We were all engaged in both individual and collective work on this trip, whether known or not, but many of us realized how key it was JUST being there with the frequency we embodied, with specific souls and their frequencies, and in the specific sacred sites with their frequencies at this particular time.

Sometimes we overthink things and think there’s all these specifics we should be doing, when the mere fact of showing up and saying “yes” to a time and place and partnership, can in and of itself be the courageous shift point and key code for change. This may be the only, and yet most potent, reason for your being called there – to Egypt, or any other power spot on the globe or particular experience in a specific place, time, and group of people.

I’m grateful for all who showed up on this journey with the myriad of gifts and resonance they reflected and embodied. Each piece, integral to the rest. Each with an important mission and role. Each bringing forth exactly the ingredients that made alchemy possible.

We don’t all have the same trajectory, mission, desire, or intention. So, I only speak for myself always as to how I experience something. Every creative expression is valuable in how it is chosen to be experienced and my truth is that alone. The key is being able to flow the energy through and let go of judgement.

I experienced many incredible visions during meditations, messages, reveals, and what I would call active initiations into my next level path.

There were many miraculous things that unfolded along the days and some extraordinary insights, openings, and “downloads,” not to mention some beautiful and powerful connections made.

That is the other thing that happens for me in Egypt. I always encounter some of the most powerful soul connections I have with others and they always awaken something bigger as a takeaway for the next part of my journey.

I’m continuing to unwrap this and especially one in particular that has revealed things about myself that beautifully challenge me to new levels of honing my gifts and how that expresses outwardly.

But more simply stated, there was so much we got to experience together on this trip over three weeks, which included a journey of the human myriad of experiences with opportunities to alchemize empowerment, a reflection of who we really are and what we’re capable of to embrace through each other, and an extensive breadth of touching in at a multitude of sacred sites that assisted these hinge points from unconscious to conscious embodiment.

Even if time was short at some places, the mere fact we stood in the timeless sands of these multi-dimensional doorways put the code into the key of life.

I saw all of the places I did the first two trips to Egypt, but so many more new ones I never had. And I know that is by divine design that some footsteps should be retraced and others newly made.

A woman in a light blue dress stands next to a stone column in front of the Pyramids of Giza, surrounded by ancient ruins and a clear blue sky.

But all of this set us up for very full days that called for high presence with all of the energies, as you’ll see below from some of the things we immersed in – rich indeed.

Dave and I arrived a couple of days earlier than the rest of the group, which gave us opportunity to immerse in some cool excursions that our leader put together last minute.

A photo of two people smiling for a selfie in front of the pyramids of Giza during sunset, with the sun casting a warm glow over the landscape.

This included some secret expeditions to places off limits to others like the Mysterious Staircase and Caves (with only one other traveler and our tour leader whom we assisted with some sacred geometry measurements) where the energies were potent and discoveries were telling, as well as getting to ride ATVs (my first time) through the desert to see the Lost Pyramids.

At the Mysterious Staircase that we gained secret access to, Dave took a photo from above of me and our guide, Larry, descending the steps to the bottom and although he could see us in the camera lens when snapping the photo, we were not present in the actual photo that was taken. Mysterious indeed!

I didn’t add that photo, as you wouldn’t be able to compare it to what was actually seen through the camera lens by Dave, but this blew his mind – not something easy to do.

The bottom left captures a person emerging from a wide trench-like feature, and the bottom right shows individuals in front of another cave opening.

And while in the caves exploring, I heard a rustle and felt a presence in one of the dark caverns that sent chills (receiving a vision about this as well) and later found an incredibly beautiful and translucent piece of flint I may make into a pendant.

Similar oddness took place at another off limits area where the Khufu Causeway is, just after I’d been led to a secret pyramid reflection (from no obvious source) through a doorway that only showed up with precise sun rays casting shadow. Then would disappear as you can see from the second photo of me on the stairway where the pyramid would come and go on the slanted support wall of the stairs.

I felt immediately that something was hidden there (two others confirmed the feeling) and not long after the three of us went into the area I was led to, did we get shooed off by guards.

Larry was always getting us into secret places and having adventures you just don’t normally get a chance to do. Like this walk through the alabaster field, escorted by police on camels who didn’t get the memo that we had permission to be there. All was well…it was just a fun and wild experience from start to end.

Other excursion surprises that were firsts for me, too, included an oh-so-magickal, sunrise hot air balloon ride over Luxor’s sugarcane fields with views of the Valley of the Kings and Colossi of Memnon.

Most of us just jumped right in with all of our clothes on and spent time connecting with the doorways of magick felt in the stone, waters, and the energetic field here. The water isn’t always this high here, but we got to experience it as a full immersion rather than just walking out to them at ankle’s depth.

The lower left focuses on a person with arms raised, and the lower right shows a prominent stone structure partially submerged.

Both were some of the major highlights for me and deserve extra photo showcasing.

The following summary will also receive a more extensive photo montage to give you a flavor for the energies experienced.

We also climbed inside and tuned into the energies of other pyramids besides the Great Pyramid this time that I hadn’t before (Step, Bent, Red, Menkaure Pyramids), visited a bunch of new-to-me tombs at various locations, several tombs in the Valley of the Kings, multiple temples along the Nile, the Unfinished Obelisk, mystical and amazing Serapeum of Saqqara that induced a journeying for me, spent lots of time exploring and discovering all around the Giza Plateau in great depth over three different days (including an impromptu sound healing I was asked to do in a tomb), walked the alabaster field through the desert around the Plateau with special permission (from Ashraf, Director of the Giza Plateau whom we had opportunity to meet and hear a talk from) after the Plateau closed, tuned in to the energy within many mosques (including the oldest) I never explored before, visited a special Coptic church where Joseph, Mary and Jesus stayed during their journey through Egypt where several of us had heart deepening experiences, enjoyed two authentic, made-with-love Egyptian meals shared at home with Mody’s and Mohamed’s families, a day in Alexandria visiting Kom El Shoqafa Catacombs (considered one of the 7th Wonders of the Middle Ages), Serapeum and its underground tunnels including a healing sanctuary and library (this Daughter Library is said to once hold books from the original Great Library of Alexandria), and Citadel of Qaitbay, visited the old Egyptian Museum of Cairo, National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (with incredible 22 royal mummies featuring the most well known ancient kings and queens of Egypt), the new Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), visited the Pharaonic Village (a living museum created on the Nile to exhibit ancient Egyptian life), took a gondolier boat on Ain el-Sira Lake at sunset, spent a full day at a private resort in El Soukna on the Red Sea, enjoyed meals on Nile dinner boats (including a private one that Mody secured for us – we did two Instagram Lives from atop the decks), relaxed a few days on a Nile Cruise to explore temples, visited markets (two of us were graciously treated there by a sweet family and enjoyed their warm Egyptian hospitality – the wife had lived in Texas!), went to Mody’s workplace, and even visited some places twice. Mody was incredible at getting us into places and having them open just for us everywhere with his connections, but we surprised him with an early birthday party complete with mini cakes and a gift extravaganza to kick off the last week.

Side note: There were cross-overs of Mary and Mary Magdalene energy that came through and tied into a lot of the energies woven throughout our time in Egypt at some of the sites. I had a vision at the healing sanctuary of the Serapeum of Alexandria of Mary coming through there, for example. And of course the Coptic church was strongly streaming her energies for several of us who experienced a rush of emotions through heart activations.

And there was more, of course. The reason I mention this briefly is because there felt to be a full circle to all of the energy I experienced on the ten week trip Dave and I had in Europe this past Spring where so much of the same energy and visions had been experienced. Like with our Sequoia trip with the Giant elders there, our trip in Europe was also an integral part of what culminated in Egypt and laid the groundwork for the work. This even included the crossover of immersing by the Mediterranean Sea, which we got to do both there and in Alexandria.

There is no way to ever share everything and even if I did, they are my experiences alone. But I touch on some things because I know they will resonate with others and the energy you are working with or have been experiencing at the same time. We are all connected and doing this together. The energies are connected as well and not separate or isolated by any humanmade division.

As mentioned, we did get some wonderful private times in some places, which I was grateful for. This included two hours in the Great Pyramid, inside the Bent Pyramid after it closed where Mody got us in, inside various tombs, in a special room of the Temple of Abydos to meditate, and by divine design (like in the chamber of the Red Pyramid, a short window at closing of Dendera, and other rooms within temples) – people cleared out leaving us alone in several other locations when it was needed. Not to mention, Mody was the “king” getting us into places everywhere and even opening up places that were closed just for us, including a huge Nile dinner boat for our group alone when it wasn’t open, and a room and spot at a private beach resort on the Red Sea all to ourselves.

My soul relished in our full beach day immersing in the sea, sand, and sun.

Can you say “revitalize?!”

It was a way to cleanse and relax from all the energy work over the past weeks and fill my cup, along with quenching my mermaid heart with warm liquid silk, crystalline waters.

Mmmmmmm, it felt so good.

We were spoiled indeed.

And so, this trip had elements of balance weaving some alone times between all of the very active times.

And speaking of active energy, another thing I want to mention for people interested in exploring Egypt for the first time, besides the various ways that energy can be experienced individually, is that if you do venture into the pyramids be prepared for what could be challenging situations for some.

There are long shafts you need to climb down and up for long durations in some case. Some pyramids are quite rigorous in the inner system of tunnels where you will be bent over the whole way going forward or backward (your choice), and in some cases crawling, and other cases ascending and descending many steps, and enduring heat and sweating along with the physical stamina needed and passing people up and down, if it’s not a private entrance. It’s totally doable, but some people might have claustrophobia or physical challenges to take into account that may make it harder, not as enjoyable, or not an option.

Most people came out of the first day’s experience in the Great Pyramid with extremely sore muscles for several days in their quads and hamstrings from the climbing. You also need to be mindful of your head the whole way too.

There were some people who opted out of going into the other pyramids after having done one or two because it was too much for them.

It’s an individual experience and even the energies moving through you or that day, can have an effect. This can also be true, actually, for any of the sites you visit since the energies are potent and affect everyone differently and can show up at different times even if you feel great one day.

It’s not just physical challenges that can present themselves, but one might also be challenged with facing shadow aspects within. Light and dark are connected experiences. In order to journey upward, you must also journey downward.

On our trip there were times when some people listened to their own inner guidance and opted out of certain experiences the group was doing, or desired other experiences depending on how they felt or what they believed was more aligned for them. So exercising your own inner compass to navigate the experience is always your choice.

For me personally, I felt invigorated and moved through the pyramid shafts quickly. With our alpine hiking at high elevation and ascending inclines daily, this provides us with training that makes these kinds of experiences a lot easier. But I find the whole thing very exciting and integral to my process and the journey it takes to receive the pieces I need, so I already start off with a motivational drive. They are home for me, the same way I absolutely thrive in higher alpine elevations where not everyone else experiences that same kind of ease. I absolutely love it. And even though I can have claustrophobic tendencies with some things, this doesn’t play out in these spaces for me. I would take on any of the pyramids or challenging obstacles (which may even include areas saturated in deep, root, shadow energy) because of the enlivened vitality I felt and because of the opportunity to work with energies at a level here that you normally don’t have opportunity to experience. That said, I did sweat like crazy (as if I was in my own sauna) and even more so probably than others because of the amount of energy I move, along with the physical exertion, but this also felt like a part of the initiation and purifying for me. You’ll know what’s right for you.

But what definitely seemed to be right for our group, was how all of this trip lined up without anyone planning it.

The night of the Virgo New Moon partial Solar Eclipse was our private two hour entrance into the Great Pyramid, which was at the start of this trip rather than being the conclusion of it like it was on my first two trips.

This felt to really crack everyone open from the get-go.

And, we explored the Giza Plateau for the second time and entered Menkaure Pyramid on the Autumn Equinox the following day – the first time being on the 20th and a third time in the last week before leaving just after the Aries Full Moon.

Before entering Khufu’s Pyramid for our private two hour entrance between 7 and 9pm, we noted a large bird hovering over the top of the pyramid. This instantly brought back the experience from my second trip when the people standing outside the entrance said they saw Horus hovering over the top of the Great Pyramid while we were doing our healing ceremonies inside for 9-9-9.

On this trip, we got to explore the King’s and Queen’s Chambers within the Great Pyramid, as well as the subterranean chamber – the latter being a first for me and so potent. I feel this subterranean chamber connecting so deeply with the collective root energies and shadow aspects to retrieve and transmute. Again, this being a perfect reflection in my opinion, of how this trip was so collectively focused in terms of what showed up and even the places we found ourselves in that represented much needed energies we were there to work with.

Being in the Great Pyramid is always pivotal for me and this time was no exception. I won’t go into all details, but I had another of my profound experiences doing a sound channeling while laying in the sarcophagus – receiving at the same time energy and sound from our amazing spiritual guide, Sam.

A group of travelers takes a selfie in front of the Bent Pyramid in Egypt, showcasing the desert landscape and ancient structure.

I never know what is going to show up and I don’t go into anything with expectations or intentions…I simply allow and follow the guidance that shows up in the moment.

The lead up had been sacred – including supporting others as they laid in the sarcophagus and my assisting another young lady in the group with her first sound channeling (I had prepped her the day before for this), which was hugely opening for her as it had been for me the first time. I also joined with Dave as he, too, went through an initiatory experience in this alchemical space. Dave and I noted, later, how we had a moment where our tones hit the same note/harmonic at a given point in his chanting and sound healing.

Side note: I always paid attention to how I was guided with sound when assisting others or in any of the temples and not simply follow what others were doing. I would receive messaging as to when to keep silent and hold the frequency via embodiment alone, when to tone softly, loudly, and whether or not to join someone. (I’ll get back to a message around this that I received in Abydos later.) I was always conscious around being supportive and not overpowering…aligning my frequencies or energy in a way that assisted the highest to come forth from others.

For example, with the young lady I mentioned, I remained silent, but held her hands before she started and I stood at her feet holding a supportive, grounded point (I get chills sharing that) channeling all of the energy flow that could be assistive to her feeling her own empowerment and trusting that. And she did beautifully! I hugged her after and shared how proud I was of her. She teared up from the experience. With Dave, I wanted to support his own voice in this power chamber, and yet also felt it key to join a little to be in partnership, as well as to add healing frequencies. Every moment, I was tuning in to what was of highest good.

Also, at times, sacred areas we visited would give me message that sound was not required and this made sense, as I would drop into seeing parallel realities happening there at the same time we stood in the place. The boundaries between timelines disappeared and I would witness what was taking place in these areas, in real time, and the figures I saw would acknowledge me and invite me, yet would also let me know when something was not needed.

But back to the Great Pyramid on the night of the New Moon Eclipse…This is a brief summary of one part of my experience there….I ended up being the last person to receive and share from this space of laying in the sarcophagus and it was very different from my first time moving sound through me. Sam was facilitating the healing session, first starting off with adding his own toning and energy work to shine a guiding light and then allowing each person to do as they were called while he supported and chimed in with that.

The first time I shared my sound channeling in the King’s Chamber had been a very angelic-like resonance that reverberated. This time a profound power was unleashed from the very depths of my essence, but carried more than just my own, as a channeling of light codes came through. This came after a lead-up of things I had been guided to do within the chamber and after seeing what I call the “Eyes of God or the All” on the chamber walls and breathing as One with them where I sat meditating at the foot of the sarcophagus.

The frequencies that came through me were a culmination of collective parts of the whole I had been guided to retrieve from within the chamber’s “time” capsule by walking barefoot around the perimeter in the dark and touching all directions and corners of the inner space, collective parts retrieved from all who was within the space itself, and this included myself – light and shadow all transmuted within the codes that moved through from my higher heart. The top of the pyramid opened as I laid there holding my labradorite over this same energy chakra – the very one I held the first time in Egypt, along with my Nestor crystal rabbit from then too – and stars dripped golden codes into my higher heart and this emanated forth from my heart and throat and out through a sound channeling.

I would like to add a note here about another way that being in our essence can shift things. My physical body alone has always had a more shallow way of breathing, I breathe quickly when exercising, and breathing exercises have always been different for me than others. However, when I am purely channeling sound, my lung capacity breaks all physical barriers and I am able to hold very long notes with sustained power behind it – a feat that can only be reckoned to being in essence and something miraculous happening when dropping into that seat of power within that we all have awaiting our embrace.

And hence, this experience on the eve of the New Moon in the King’s Chamber was incredibly electric and revitalizing…everything was moved through the sound at decibels that would seem uncharacteristic for me.

To kick off the trip with this, definitely laid the groundwork for unfolding experiences.

What I received as message later, at one of my favorite spots – the powerful Temple of Abydos -where the above famous hieroglyphs reside (check them out) and the magickal Osirion (also above) stands – during my walking meditation through the inner rooms there, was this: “You are the music” and I reflected that, “I am the music”. (I also had some other powerful realizations and training that took place while in Abydos – a very resonant and key temple for me)

This was an instant activation or inner recalibration, as I felt a huge click take place and my heart had an emotional response to the new landing of this truth in embodiment.

So going back to what I was sharing before, this speaks to me of how whether or not I actually move sound through my throat chakra, the frequencies are still exuded by presence of embodiment and purity of intention. A cosmic song is held within our energetic field and shines louder as we drop resistance and barriers of fear. Silence is both golden and loud.

Sound healing is a major component for Ancient Egyptians in terms of healing and spiritual balance. Ancient practices centered on vibrational frequencies, energy, and consciousness held in these mysteriously constructed pyramids, temples, and spaces that act as gateways between realms. The Great Pyramid and the King’s Chamber have extraordinary acoustic properties and some suggest the possibility of structures like this having even been built with sound.  

There’s no surprise then, why sound healing can be highly transformative when done in this space…not to mention so many other unknown, but felt reasons to experience being in this extraordinary place that can be profound.

Sound channeling through my own vehicle has been, for me, the most profound for evolution, integration, transmutation, and empowered embodiment.

I was so happy to be able to share it all with Dave and have him experience, firsthand, why for me this is such a power spot and has been important in my life.

Egypt is a clear access point for me to my fuller self and the All.

This is not something that has to be done in a specific place, as it is always within us to understand anywhere we are, but there are elements and frequencies that can come together to create greater alignment for this.

Dave saw and experienced me light up in the ways that I do there and I got to see him shine in new ways as well and him take lead and follow his own inner guidance with things that proved profound in their own ways.

I also saw how others appreciated his presence and anchoring energy.

I also enjoyed seeing him in this space and watching his gifts flourish, as he took lead on things and followed his intuition.

I have noted since returning home, how his senses have amplified and his resonance to alignment has increased in awareness – all beautiful things.

Everyone has their own timing and journey with things, and to support the beautiful unfolding of that relative to each is the gift we can give each other.

A person stands next to an ancient stone wall inside a historical site in Egypt.

Like anyone, he discovered the pieces that resonated and those that didn’t in Egypt, and he went through his own transformative experiences that I feel will continue to unfold over the days and months.

Just like we all will go through from this trip.

This trip was one that had been presented to me/us, rather than one I would actively have put feelers out for…and in that way, felt divinely guided as a mission. I can conclude, in fact that is what unfolded because of the people that showed up. Alongside that, had I not been there I wouldn’t have met key people that will play into the upcoming days and years. One in particular has already ignited a change in the way I view myself and will be moving forward.

The entire journey was jam packed with richness all around and we definitely got time to also immerse in Egyptian life outside of the tourist areas and enjoy many meals all over the city.

And yet, breathing in the essence of this ancient land has still only been barely scratched.

Each trip keeps increasing and deepening the breadth of experiences and still there’s so much more I’ve learned about and feel called to explore, as well as return to some of the key places for me in a different way.

I’m grateful for the connections that this trip brought together to unpack and anchor things in this life and also that will make future guided immersions possible and curated just the way my heart feels called.

The interesting twist to saying that is I, and another one of my dear friends from the trip who was doing a lot of energy work with me, had both felt before going that there was the potential of this being her first and last trip, and perhaps closing things for me. However, we both walked away from the trip getting messages about the specific work we did together this time having concluded, and that there was different work ahead. Hence, our guidance was that there’s more to come both together, but also in individual ways and at different times.

A woman walking through an ancient Egyptian doorway, surrounded by hieroglyphics and intricate carvings.

That said, I’m also so grateful for the beautiful friendships that were nurtured because of the opportunity to get to know online connections in person. We instantly felt where the bonds ran deepest and where some bonds were only meant as a precise key point in time, on the map of star-crossing alignments for a greater good.

And it was such a gift to also meet and deepen the bond with Mody of course. Being together only reiterated our connection and demonstrated how family is recognized not by blood, but by the open heart you share with others. We trusted the connection the moment we communicated online close to almost three years ago, and it translated exactly as was felt, in the flesh. Dave also felt that instant bond with Mody and that connection was one of the main take-aways for him that he was grateful for.

Dave caught this sweet moment of Mody and me on our last evening before leaving Egypt, after we shared a little goodbye dance.

A joyful embrace between two friends, celebrating a special moment together against a scenic backdrop.

It was particularly fun to be able to visit Mody’s workplace and see all the raw stones and carvings in person. This also gave us opportunity to connect with Mody’s giant skull and dragon carvings – some of the largest of their kind in the world brought to life from Egyptian alabaster and temple stones.

Speaking of animals – there are feral cats and dogs everywhere in Egypt and at the temple sites. We would always stop and share love with them all and they with us.

Some of our group would bring left overs from meals and feed the animals along our routes. One of the women who had been in Egypt back in February and was returning, connected deeply with one of the sickly dogs back then that had a giant heart pattern on his fur and through a very long process actually ended up adopting him. He became a part of her fur baby family back in the states.

We encountered a lot of bats hanging out in sacred areas of temples and pyramids – adding their sonar frequencies to our sound healing – geckos on temple walls, great blue herons, egrets, a variety of other birds, fish, of course camels, horses, donkeys, cattle, and even mummified crocodiles.

The Nile is rich in many ways, as is the experience on the Mediterranean and Red Seas. I hope to immerse more in all of these.

But back to Mody’s friends and business associates – they were a gift to us during the last week we spent in Egypt outside of the tour. They so generously gave of their time to drive and take care of us throughout our days with them and immediately became family for me.

Naser and Sayied became my brothers, just as Mody has been and now they always will be.

I learned even more about Egyptians, being with Mody in these days and listening and feeling into the hearts of others I connected with, as well, on this trip. And I think others also had their perceptions shifted in the days spent immersing, especially when they truly listened with the heart to people’s experiences rooted in love.

An appreciation for each person’s differences and yet not seeing those differences is the Egyptian way.

There was so much deepening on both a human and spiritual level that I experienced – once again.

It’s always amazing how much more the heart can expand.

I welcome opportunities to crack it open wider – and that comes both through the bitter and sweet. The depths and contrasts to emotions as well as the experiences that take us on wild and even sometimes tumultuous rides is all part of the alchemy of love.

I’m always ready to embrace the depths of the journey.

I’m looking forward to how things continue to evolve, as it will take a little time to let the new energies settle and organically land.

Although I didn’t share everything about this sacred journey and the weeks of very deep work, I think you can feel how much was woven into the experiences and the photos help convey the energy that speaks louder than words.

And even though I didn’t write about it all, this is still a long share, as I just can’t see any other way around it – other than not sharing at all. But that isn’t my path.

As a bridge, I embrace the parts I can share, as a form of its own activation of remembrance.

Since being back there’s been a continuation of dimensional separation dropping and journeying through the cosmic gateways, (deep like the ocean and light as a feather, as a dear soul told me), like my experiences at certain sites of Egypt and in meditations there.

This has been accompanied by animal encounters with deer, coyote, and hawk messengers making a point of connecting and acknowledging this expanded experience.

On yesterday’s New Moon I found a collection of raw smoky quartz and was visited by three does when I was guided to sit off-trail and discovered they were there grazing.

The day we drove home from Egypt and were just down the road from our house, a beautiful, large coyote ran up to the sidewalk and peered at us with her soulful eyes piercing ours. A wonderful way to be greeted upon return. She is one of the resident coyotes who then showed up again the morning of the 16th just off our back deck in the forest, as you can see.

The evening before the last coyote sighting, our resident, guardian red tailed hawk greeted me back home just before sunset. He landed on the tree out back and sat there for several minutes connecting. My new camera is wonderful at capturing gorgeous images and crisp detailing when the light is right. Just look at him!

Horus has been in my meditations a lot – no surprise there for me. He guides me daily.

And for now, that guidance will assist as the year winds down and we enjoy the rest of Autumn before officially welcoming in the onset of Winter that this early snow sent a preview of.

I’ll use the rest of October to get everything in order and caught up, then immerse fully in fresh energies the month of November. We have Dave’s mom visiting then, but a quieter rest of the month after that for my project immersions and curating plans for 2026.

We’ll be away in December and again in February – travels in a different vein that will aid my personal projects and new directions. And some other surprises in store.

I’ll share along the way, as inspired by collective energies and nudges of inspiration.

Until then, I have been guided to share a small group of new crystal cocreators who ask to be seen.

While in Egypt I was led to some very beautiful and powerful stones along my walks in and around temples, pyramids, and the desert landscapes. These include raw alabaster crystals, flint, golden mica quartz, quartz, and other unknown beauties carrying ancient energy. I also have with me beautiful colored desert glass from Nubia – these are similar material to Andaras, but charged with Nile River, Isis Temple, and Moon energies. I have a couple of small carvings from Mody I brought back as well – with a large group of carvings that will be shipped to me at a later date. But all of the pieces I just mentioned bringing back have been added to my Egyptian grid and are being used to charge current pieces that are being released at this time.

I will be adding a small group of crystal skulls by tomorrow 10/23. I shared a peak of a couple of them before heading out to Egypt on Instagram, as they were stating their connection to the energies of this power spot. Some people picked up on that and the giant master skull was called home.

If any call to you and you need assistance, please let me know. Details can be found tomorrow on the page link below.

Until then, and always, may your days be filled with love, peace, and wisdom.

A Potent Equinox Widening the Field of Potential

Which ever way your path leads, what ever form your beliefs take, and what ever channel you find to be the clearest match to your heart – embrace that wholeheartedly and try not to worry about what others are doing or what they say about what you’re doing, as the only gauge is how alignment is flowing in your own life.

There’s enough judgment and division in the world, so finding your own inner balance of wholeness is what is going to make a difference both for you and what evolves as a result from the individual process you each choose to embody. Conscious or unconscious, your frequency of experience cocreates a collective reflection.

The greater harmony or disharmony the individual experiences within, has direct effect on the creative evolution that responds in like.

Align your parts and watch as you close the gap of fight between yourself and All That Is.

I don’t feel things to be a test, nor a game…it’s consciousness in motion within the Cosmic laws – laws that we have ability to access for the creation of more expansive experiences we might be interested in choosing.

Understand the laws and you find yourself maneuvering much differently.

This has been my personal experience with operating in the field of potential. I am unable to put it into words, but there’s been a consistent uptick over the last year or so in cracking codes – that’s the only way I can explain it.

The gaps in between these experiences are getting shorter too, and they’re part of the reason for my increased optimism.

And now that we’re on the other side of the Equinox gateway, these feelings continue to bloom.

I wonder if anyone else felt or experienced some unusual or defining things on the 20th?

Besides the literal things that took place that day, I felt another layer of opening and release energetically.

That actual day was jam packed for us here when Spring ignited officially.

It started out with us heading to a late morning appointment for Dave, when we were rerouted by a highway closure. The main way we go was closed due to an accident, so our whole day shifted around when we had to take a different road to our destination.

We embraced the change.

We called right away and they rescheduled him for early midafternoon. That provided us time to go back home for a short while, before we headed out again to take advantage of the window of opportunity presented.

We decided to do an impromptu hike in the valley where there isn’t any snow, before hitting some errands.

If we hadn’t, then none of the rest of this would have taken place. If the road closure also hadn’t been, then the day would have unfolded differently.

Timing and choice is everything. Change may be a way of realigning us for the highest good.

Instead of the usual trail, we opted for the trail on the opposite side of the highway that I’d been remarking on for a while that looked like it might be interesting.

It ended up being a great hike with expansive views of the valley framed by our snow-capped mountain home in the background.

We saw evidence of mini faery flowers starting to pop, but the meandering trail was a fresh change and perfect to welcome a new season.

There were a lot of interesting metamorphic rocks along the path to explore..

As we hiked I got this strong feeling that something special might be found because of it being the Equinox…I rattled off possibilities in my head of deer antlers, bones, feathers, quartz, etc.

I’m not sure why I thought of deer antlers, but realized that this is the time of the year of their shedding these.

Not long after, I started to find a few sparkly quartz, including a mini smoky quartz cluster and Dave suddenly remarked that he thought this could be a good area for finding shed deer antlers.

That was interesting since I had thought of this silently in my head. I told him so and how I sensed that now that we both were feeling this, there was a good chance of it happening.

Not long after, we started to notice the vegetation that deer like to feed on, wildlife trails, and lots of deer poop. In fact my tracking instincts led me to deer poop feeding areas over and over.

We both started exploring off-path a little, while following the main trail. I just knew something was coming.

I did remind Dave that it’s possible to find them even near the hiking trail because the two other antlers I found in Montana had been by sighting from the main trail.

I stopped for a moment to do my soft pause, centering, and heart connection with hand over my heart. Something I also do when I feel crystal finds are waiting to be discovered. I felt an antler in my field and trusted in divine guidance joining us.

We followed along back on the main trail for a while and at one point stopped to say something. While we were talking, my eye caught something to my right and I turned. In the same breath I was answering Dave with I said, “I found a deer antler” and walked right to it.

He said, “You did?!”

I brought it to him and handed it over. “Yep.”

He said, “I guess that confirms what we felt about this area.”

I recognized it right away and it all became very matter-of-factly without surprise while I could feel my parts merging. I didn’t want to sound ungrateful, as I was hugely so, but at the same time I realized that by doing too much of that as an extension outside of myself, this would place a separation from my own abilities. The gratitude became more of one around the process I felt I was teaching myself in these experiential fields of potential.

It’s a shorter forked antler likely from a younger buck and the two points were worn down where tips once were likely more sharp at one time.

I can’t explain how I felt – a combination of immense gratitude, amazement, knowing, and empowerment.

I couldn’t say I was surprised, as I felt in my bones the alignment with this happening. Yet, there was still that meeting of wonder and delight with solid self-realization and cocreatorship.

It’s an experience of not knowing the difference between psychic vision and conscious manifestation.

Are we actually “seeing” what’s coming, which produces the feeling of knowing? Or have we actually put in motion a melding of elements to produce by creative will?

I shared this with Dave and he said, “I think that it was meant for just you to find that one.”

It wasn’t the first time an experience like this has taken place. It’s been happening a lot in various areas of my life.

They are very deliberate and boundary-breaking unfoldings that take me out of the smaller me and into a multi-dimensional consciousness that defies what we think we know as reality.

I feel like the unlocking of cosmic codes is continuing to happen for us all and will continue to become a consistent process, as well as a more conscious and intentional process. The invitations and doorways are all around us.

An experience of really communing with All That Is.

I felt myself expand. That’s the best way I can explain it.

We continued back to the car and next it was bones that caught my eye. They looked to be part of leg bones and also felt like deer. One had the two pieces still connected.

We went on to do some errands after our spontaneous and potent Spring hike – one of which included my ordering new glasses.

I hadn’t been to the eye doctor for two years, but could feel that the astigmatism was more noticeable now in terms of near vision. Up to this point I have only had one pair of glasses, which I got back in 2019 – 5 years ago. I still absolutely love those frames and plan to keep them for potential future prescriptions. I had them just to wear if I wanted to, but didn’t need to and still at this point don’t need to for distant stuff. I mostly wore them just to change things up.

I had a few pairs of over-the-counter readers that I would grab for extensive close-up reading, but now that the astigmatism has increased, it makes it so that having prescription glasses on hand is much more useful and replaces the over-the-counter ones.

So, I opted to get a new pair with progressive lenses that handle both near and far sight. That way I only have to use one and will basically get rid of the rest. They are a super fun color and style that Dave actually picked out and we both loved.

This felt like a fun upgrade in new Spring energy, new vision, and a fine-tuning of clarity and balance. Kind of coinciding with my antler experience, which of course was simultaneously such a perfect find for the Equinox, energetically and symbolically.

I should get them in a couple of weeks. Perfect timing before heading off on our travels next month too.

I will likely wear these a lot more, although don’t need them for my outdoor activities, as I still have hawk eyes when it comes to seeing and finding things.

We continued on after that to Dave’s eye check-up appointment, lunch, and some more errands before heading home.

On our drive back the sky was filled with unusual clouds that appeared like hovering spacecrafts moving above.

There was even one that to me was a clear image of a beluga whale emerging from a sky ship.

A friend later told me that she, too, had been seeing the same kind of clouds throughout that day and felt wild and chaotic energy.

I wouldn’t say I felt chaotic energy, but the energies were very strong, clear, and purposeful with a lot going on, yet with precision and opening.

Our Equinox ended with some bitter added to the sweet, as we came upon an injured Canadian goose on the last stretch home.

She was laying on the road like she was nesting there and we saw her partner looking very distraught by her side. We stopped the car and saw her try to get up.

Her leg was broken, bleeding, and potentially also the wing broken on the same side. It was apparent she’d been hit by a car.

Our hearts bled with her…it was extremely heart-breaking. Dave wondered if he might be able to gather her in a blanket, but she was very scared and went off into the drainage water by the field where the other geese were when he approached. I sent energy to her with love and support.

I told him we should drop a pin on a map and call the wildlife rescue to let them know. We knew it was a longshot, but felt we had to do something. We left a message about her and shared the location, but they were closed for the night.

That night my heart ached when I went to bed, so I tuned in with her.

That’s where I’m so grateful to have the ability to use the gifts we all have available to us to send energy and intention. Between Reiki and other forms of communication and energetic support, I tuned in with her, sent energy to subdue the pain, put a protective bubble around her, sent calm and love to her and her partner, and the intention that if she can’t make it through the night or a predator finds her, that she passes peacefully.

I trust that.

The next morning we followed up to remind the wildlife place about our message, as we wanted to do what we could. They said they would be getting a volunteer to go down and look for her in the area we sent them. We released it all to the highest good.

Spring Equinox was filled with endings and beginnings and symbolism of the sacred cycles always in motion.

And indeed parts of us will fade away and come to an ending all together, but simultaneously regeneration and renewal is always at hand.

We tend to focus only on one or the other – death or birth – but to see the truth of wholeness with clarity is realizing their threaded continuum.

Just as this sunset last night seamlessly shifted in gorgeous colors.

I’m already seeing all of my bulbs – old and new – pushing through the ground.

I don’t know if I’ll get to see my Spring blooms this year, which I’ll miss while we’re away. But I will at least see their growth spurt that mirrors my own.

What things in your own life are you hoping to grow stronger, more of, or perhaps for the first time?

UPDATE: There’s just one crystal remaining – a beautiful Ocean Jasper freeform – that will be available only through March 31st. It’s bursting with colorful new life and potential too.

Walking on the Edge ~ Creators Creating Personal Alchemy

As we walked into the energy of May 11th’s New Moon, it called us to feel into the old and decide what heavy baggage we no longer wanted to carry forth into the new. With the Moon being in Taurus, the energy of what ever our personal goals and intentions were for entering this cycle, there was going to be a need for patience and grounding, since Earthy Taurus moves slowly. There would be a nudge toward more mindfulness and clarity on what you really want under the influence of this energy before actually proceeding, and a lot of persistent patience and trust would be in need of nurturing.

If you experienced a few more challenging, confusing or even darker days leading up to the New Moon, you’re not alone. I did, too, and others I heard from chimed in. It’s not unusual, in general, for that to culminate around this cycle, but there was something more going on that some of us sensitives seemed to notice that was riding along the currents as well.

What ever the themes and energies were that emerged for you, these I feel are sacred messages as to what’s to be alchemized not just for the lunar month, but also the journey at large, ahead.

You may have sensed a shift to more material and physical things to include your body, your home, daily, and simple routines or mundane things and these would both be helpful, as well as inspiring creative changes like redecorating, wearing new colors and styles, experimenting with new foods, and creating beauty all around you.

As creators, walking into the new we want to see, with trust and courage, is what’s needed – not knowing the end result and not knowing how, but moving into it and watching it work out in the moment. When in doubt, we will need to remember to foster words of gentle encouragement to ourselves and look inward to understand our personal alchemy. When feeling discouraged or lost, we may need to call upon support systems – on and/or off Earth, or simply from within.

While we may need to learn to be our own muse at times, there are many muses around us that can be uplifting and inspiring. Anything can be our muse – a person, animal, plant, color, energy, feeling, place, spirit guide, etc. They will carry codes of creation to spark new realities.

In any event, these are the times of the creators – you – and what we’re journeying deeper into is bringing forth personal alchemy in a way that helps make changes in your life more fun and with greater ease, which ultimately has an effect for the collective as well.

If you find yourself at a crossroads and unable to see what’s next, you’re not lost or alone. I find that the further we journey in these rapidly accelerated times, the less we’re going to have foretelling of what’s around the corner. We’re being invited into a different way of experience that leads from the heart’s alignment to spirit.

We’ve oscillated between choosing either mission or love (what’s the most far-reaching responsible and compassionate thing or where our heart tugs) and we are learning to merge these so there is no sacrifice.

It’s not just a human endeavor, but a cosmic journey we’re embarking on and helping to harmonize.

It also feels to be about going beyond black and white to play in the gray – the middle way.

It’s not a clear cut path, as we’re creating it as we go along and many are not only working with us, but awaiting and cheering us on to embody this alchemy.

Two days before the New Moon, I felt a very heavy energy and it felt like it wanted to consume me, discourage, and close the shutters on the light I saw through the window. I found myself being pulled down and ego wanted reason to stay in that, wallow and linger there, and even fully give up. I’d been aware of this energy for a while, but had managed to keep it at bay. Then it charged forth just like that Taurus bull, but with fiery eyes and sharp horns staring straight at me, I had to decide how to dance with him – would I fight the bull, tease and taunt it, run away from the bull, surrender to defeat by the bull, or?

I decided to use love and speak the language of the heart. I stepped into my vibrational frequency in order for personal alchemy to come through.

And this helped open a door that was closed before. It wasn’t the answer, but it created a way for something else to emerge.

From there, I still had the heaviness, even though I “bought” time and thoughts, visions, and feelings swirled within me. Ego still wanted a reason to linger there, but intuition stepped in.

I felt exhausted and betrayed by the energies unfolding. Being in nature always helps, especially being active outdoors, and so I did keep moving the energy and being curious about what it all meant.

Contrary to the ego voice, when I returned home, intuition told me to go out and do my wildflower seeding even though I felt like doing nothing. I immediately started feeling the energy shift and my energy rising, little by little. By the end, I was revitalized both with energy and perspective, and hope returned. This act that my intuition guided me toward, was a literal “seeding” of new intentions and potentials.

I watered them after.

The next day following, I did more outdoor activity and really moved the energy in a bigger way to the point of having conversations out loud with my star family and the Universe, as I hiked and passed through different stages of feelings. Nature was there to absorb and help recharge all that I released, and transmutation took shape.

After that vulnerable and raw release, even more perspective and doors opened, and although I didn’t actually arrive at any particular answer, there was possibility where there hadn’t felt to be any before.

And by the time the day of the New Moon arrived, energies continued to shift and soften and has continued as so.

Still no answers, but more was revealed and I can feel a way even though I don’t know what it is.

And through all of this I’ve had a lot of interesting messengers showing up, which point to my sensing the approach of one of the biggest shifts of my life upcoming.

This is all indicating a call to a new path opening and changes ahead.

And although you see me here, I have actually been more inner these days in order to recalibrate what I’m downloading and how that will look.

I don’t see what new world I’ll land in, but perhaps it’s a new one I’m creating as a creator, which will take some time to manifest.

Or, maybe it’s the world I remember best, calling me back.

Whenever I am on the precipice of major change, hawk shows up as both confirmation things are being supported behind the scenes and as guide to help me with passage between realms. The day after the heaviest of feelings, she flew above and landed atop a barren old tree in the clearing to make sure I saw her and waited for me. As I approached, she looked down and watched me the whole way to her. After I reached her and thanked her, she then took flight above me and circled for about three minutes, close, then farther, and back again. I could see her beautiful feathers clearly.

I’ve been spending a lot of extra time outdoors in receptive and releasing mode because, as I mentioned, it helps me to move energy and listen. If I’m not out on the trails, I’ve been heavily in my garden implementing new ideas, or in extra close communion with Astrid, my cocreator.

In my spare time, I’ve been completing one task at a time, finishing projects, and now stepping into reorganizing and redecorating my office, garage, closet, and kitchen pantry – all feeling right in line with the New Moon energies, as well as the earthing time.

As I shared earlier, the last five days have brought some interesting animal guides to me as messengers. Besides the unusual now THREE bald eagle sightings within less than two weeks, coyote crossed behind our house just as I looked up from the kitchen while cooking, a coyote pack howled close by while I was gardening, followed by an owl hooting in the trees, I found part of a skunk’s tail fur, a large piece of porcupine fur and quills, an old fallen bird’s nest, and

Old fallen bird’s nest and large piece of porcupine fur/quills
Same as above, but with addition of goose down feathers, beautiful dead moth, and skunk fur

discovered robins have returned and built a new nest at the same place above the eaves of the front door for their family.

There were also four turkey vultures that circled and coasted on the wind in front of us while we sat on a rock cliff overlooking Tahoe – that’s when the third eagle showed up right after being

chased by smaller birds – I found a beautiful dead moth in a box where some of my gardening things were kept in the garage that looked like it had been deliberately preserved, I found a plethora of various bird feathers (one appears to be hawk), including a soft, tender bunch of new goose down feathers from

geese friends that left it behind for me, Dave found a very large black raven feather while I connected with hawk, and six geese followed us, nested near us by the water and waited a few

hours for us to return from our bike ride. I also found a huge spider downstairs that was one of the biggest I’ve seen in a while and the first zebra swallowtail of the season glided toward us on the trail.

Then there’s this gorgeous, huge silvery “gray” squirrel who has been visiting profusely outside my office and in the garden. He’s quite the shape shifter and little wizard.

Here he is on the light just outside my office door, peeking in
Here he is on my garden bench – look at that gorgeous, huge, fluffy tail

Transformation is afoot in a very big and contrasting way, and I feel that the only way to navigate it all is to be in and create personal alchemy right now, as that’s all we have at our fingertips.

Knowing our own vibration and how to manage and raise it, becomes vital in these times.

I’m seeing how energies are trying to intervene and even confuse, deter, or try to block the new, but you truly can find another way.

Even if it just opens a door, or buys time, implementing intuitive being and your own inner muse frequency can ignite personal alchemy for change to ignite.

Sometimes you feel like softly closing your petals for a while and other times you bubble with exuberance to open them wide. Where ever you find yourself is perfect and doesn’t change this fact – a flower you are.

I’ve been observing my new tulips daily, watching as they open and close in response to the light and heat. They aren’t diminished by this contraction of tucking in for the night or folding up on a rainy day.

It’s a way to keep their pollen dry and protected so that when they do open to the next morning’s light, they are ready to dance with visiting pollinators and share their sweetness they have enriched to gift.

The Stuff Faery Tales Are Made Of

forest faery 2

Faery tales embody the simple and complex at the same time and are a way to communicate truths through wonder and to bring magick to the child within who holds the keys to alchemy. Faery tales, in my book, do matter and I have made it a focus to bring my own version of them to life in one way or another, as I believe there is an unseen world where other realities exist and are available to experience here and now. What we discover is how our imagination is the doorway to live the enchantment that exists, as the essence of the universe at large.

Faery tales journey us through challenges, fears, and dangers, while revealing that things aren’t always as they seem and connecting us with our deepest desires through transformational adventures.

I’ve definitely experienced all of this and find myself with a better understanding of my life through discovery of spiritual insights uncovered along the twists and turns that revealed the fantastical as real.

So, do I believe in Faery tales?

Indeed I do and I believe we are all living and creating one – each our own – with shared themes playing out creatively across the collective.

Where things are unclear and hard to understand, I believe magick explains the why’s. After all, we are the greatest miracle embodied, and it’s hard to imagine we aren’t living magickal lives because of that. I do believe a wizard lies within each of us to remember.

And although my life may look or seem more Faery tale-like now, I assure you that all the tragedy, so-called villains, brushes with death, and character arcs that truly make the full gamut of a true Faery tale, have been journeyed through more than their fair share along my adventures in humanity on Earth. And even those experiences were filled with the miraculous and magickal, despite the less than desired ideals we gravitate toward because, after all, everything is part of the divine and sacred oneness that we are.

This is the inner journey of alchemy – some call it the hero’s or heroine’s journey – Deepak Chopra calls it “The Way of the Wizard,” sharing my own feeling on the magickal you, you’ve forgotten that you are.

It’s become more obvious to me, how I’m consciously creating a reality that breathes of Faery tales and whispers of enchantment, which has included the duality that every tale travels through.

And while the villains and tragedies are no longer the focal point of my story, I still get the opportunity to live out the actualization of what I’ve learned and discovered along the way in how I process and maintain my Faery tale peace within the collective kingdom at large – invoking more of the wizard within to step forth so I may see through her eyes of trust and experience the oneness of my own being – the end becoming the beginning.

Saturday felt like another layer added to my Faery tale, and as you can see in the photos of me in the forest, I was feeling the magick indeed.

Something about wearing this gown was very shifting and we decided to capture a photo in our backyard forest before heading out. So, I walked out barefoot and these two photos were taken in the two minutes we had to spare before leaving.

When I saw the photo at the end of this post, I noted that difference I felt, coming through in the visual of embodiment. I did, in fact, feel the totality of my Faery tale and this additional character arc that is taking me on a new beginning from a naturally culminating end.

IMG_20180721_162439484_HDR.jpg

It was my parent’s 50th golden anniversary, which is a Faery tale story and milestone, in and of itself, and I felt called to wear a long gown that featured a giraffe couple – perfect for this celebration with their gentleness of spirit, beauty, gracefulness, elegance, and tenderness. I’m so grateful to have them as parents and feel blessed to be able to witness these years their love has been a guiding force in our lives.

They have definitely been living their full gamut Faery tale that all began once upon a time when a young, beautiful girl living in an old village of cobbled streets nestled at the foot of a castle in southern France was sent off to college in England by her poor family where she met her Italian prince charming from Hoboken, New Jersey who was sent overseas by his working-class family to complete his education too.

The rest is history.

They are true twin souls journeying the Cosmos together eternally, as this photo so perfectly captures.

IMG_20180721_173123271.jpg

I haven’t followed in their exact footsteps for sure, but the foundation they created has been a stabilizing and guiding factor for all that my spirit had in mind for me.

Perhaps it’s because I step out in my own version of Faery tale shoes. 😉

stepping out bunny style.jpg

Can you say bunny love? (Despite my giraffe gown, I stay true to my rabbit roots)

IMG_20180721_164919095.jpg

And every morning I’m greeted by this enchanted Forest Portal we live on, and an enchanted office named Wonderland, with an extraordinarily enchanted bunny named Astrid, awaiting me.

IMG_20180724_092852130.jpg

While I do many mundane, seemingly unextraordinary things each day, they are made possible because of the miracle body I live in, and enhanced by the magickal surroundings I’ve dreamed up and created for myself.

IMG_20180724_090656729.jpg

I continue to watch my office evolve into more and more of the whimsical imagination within my child heart and can’t tell you how happy I feel and supported by all of the energies and beings that inhabit it with Astrid and me.

IMG_20180724_092924852.jpg

Every single thing has meaning, purpose, and carries a specific frequency of energy that speaks to the Faery tale story of my life and every experience I’ve had or am creating from the “future” backwards.

IMG_20180724_113158238.jpg

It is the 45 year old, adult version of my inner child, revered and cherished. And it is from this place of whimsy embodied that I dream up the new and bring my book and any other dreams alive.

IMG_20180724_113311815.jpg

I don’t know what the future holds with anything. I just know that I’ll live fully every interesting twist to the path in the forest, where ever they may lead. It’s my Faery tale to create and so it is that I will!

And Faery tales wouldn’t be complete without a Faery wand!

Meet Harmony.

IMG_20180723_093544833.jpg

I recently had the opportunity to channel a new Mystery Magick Crystal Wand for a sweet and magickal spirit in Romania, and this is what came through.

Harmony is such a pure and, of course, harmonious embodiment of cosmic love, empowerment, transformation, self-awareness, creative birthing, and bringing forth gifts of the heart for humanity.

This is the only wand I’ve created outside in Nature. I created half of it while on the shore of Fallen Leaf Lake – the birth place of its beautiful wood branch. And the forest and waters there infused it with their song. I then completed the rest on the forest and garden of our home.

It’s quite a unique wand with a Triple Goddess Lemurian Phantom Quartz as a point! Woah! Can you say wow?! I had no idea that the crystal choosing to be the focal point had all of this going on until I looked and felt deeper into it.

It is a 5-sided Isis crystal as well and with three faces having 5 sides, we get that Triple Goddess effect. It actually has only 3 faces, which is unusual, as the other three triangular sides do not create faces, but simply create triangular points.

IMG_20180720_150816927.jpg

And you can see the phantom very clearly. A phantom looks like another crystal inside mirroring the shape, but ethereal (white or colored material – in this case gray). These phantoms provide indication of the experiences and transformations of the crystal’s evolution, represent the many phases of life you experience in a lifetime, helps to break through limitations, and grow beyond fear and blocks. They also help bring humanity together to support the planet.

IMG_20180720_153306445.jpg

Then along the shaft we have 3 Super Seven crystals that are super magickal little worlds of their own, one double terminated Rose Quartz, and one double terminated Chevron Amethyst, as you can see in these photos at the lake just after I completed that phase of the creation.

IMG_20180720_153531069.jpg

Super Seven creates a powerhouse of healing crystal energy to the wand’s embodiment bringing together the seven stones within it in combination with the other three types of crystals found on this creation. It can assist in all endeavors and helps to bring conscious awareness to the most challenging things that have been hidden or repressed within you. It is very protective and enhances psychic energies, while being energizing and expansive.

Rose Quartz creates the wand’s embodiment and focus of universal, unconditional love and helps restore harmony and trust, balances and opens the heart chakra, promotes all levels of love including self-love, brings calm and peace to healing, and encourages forgiveness and self-worth.

Chevron Amethyst creates the wand’s embodiment of peace, inner strength and courage, promotes self-discovery, helps remove resistance to change and helping oneself, dissipates negative energies, builds trust in intuition, cleanses, supports meditation and crown chakra illumination, amplifies energies for manifestation, and helps diminish potential addictive tendencies and recovery of any present addictions.

IMG_20180723_093412921.jpg

All entwined with rose gold wire enhanced by rose satin cord (that creates little rosettes throughout where knots are needed), and then anchored with two larger and perfect, darker twin Goose feathers, with one pure white Goose feather at center of the two – all silky and luminescent in quality.

IMG_20180722_173901304.jpg

The Goose and its feathers embody loyalty, forging ahead with bravery and confidence, teamwork and comradery, protection, clear communication, determination, dedication, fellowship, fidelity, fertility, the balance of knowing when to lead or follow, compassionate keepers of the community and embody the sacred circle and sanctity of the cycles of life, astute navigation, discernment of life path and choices, teamwork, protection, and committed responsibility. Geese never leave one of their own behind for any reason. They will stay with the sick and injured until they are either well again, or to support them as they transition.

The twin energy of the two larger Goose feathers brings together that which is within, merged, so that that without will reflect this integration and harmony. The white feather is the transmutational bridge that integrates it all with grace and purity. I have the white feather anchored strongly at center, while the two twin feathers are free flowing to the sides.

IMG_20180723_093326010.jpg

They ask you to remember your origins, to trust your intuition, communicate your needs and vulnerabilities, and honor and protect what is most of value.

Having a wand is a perfect and active way to focus energies while also a way of waving magick infusions into everything you are creating.

It was the perfect project for me to channel right now during my in-between book journey while I work on preparing the next phases after my editor returns it to me. It helps me to percolate the energies and keep momentum, as I want to preserve that enchantment and creative imagination to be ready for the leap to come. This is one of the things that has kept that going.

And in the meantime, I continue to imagine with great clarity, dream big, surround myself with everything that speaks to my essence, imbibe the frequencies I intend for the story of life I’m creating, and live as boldly and courageously as possible, as the character of my own Faery tale.

There’s definitely been an increased awareness around waking dreams and seeing how every part of the journey is a part of the creative story being woven.

We are the story tellers and story keepers of life unfolding. Faery tales have many twists and turns and are filled with imagination creating the embodiment of experiences that encompass the alchemy of you.

Feeling the Potency of Creative Alchemy in Action

tania marie.jpg

So, wow! I have to start off by saying how incredibly beautiful this gift sharing has been with everyone who was a part of the Summer Solstice Gratitude Giveaway. I not only enjoyed sharing Reiki blessings with all who joined, but also loved being able to send what I was guided to for each of the recipients as well. It seems that most of the gifts are arriving since yesterday (even overseas – incredible!) and the blast of beaming energy of love you are all sharing via your emails supports why I felt like a giddy little Faery up to good mischief in sprinkling surprises your way. To hear about the perfection these gifts have been for you and the joy, inspiration, and shifts they are igniting, is the icing on my cake I so love. 😉

There’s always so much to be grateful for and increasingly I’m experiencing life in a natural flow of honoring the opportunities that present themselves to give and receive in a multitude of ways that reflect unity in truly fulfilling expressions beyond limited ideas and attachment.

The unlimited ways mirror creativity and creativity is one of the most powerful energies available to us.

Creativity is love.

It is a magickal and powerful energy vital to exercise and cultivate as a channel of creation itself.

Summer is rolling along and I can just feel the creative energy blossoming in bursts of vibrancy everywhere – not only mirrored in Nature and Her incredible flowers, but also mirrored in the explosion of creative output people are expressing, sharing, cultivating, and nurturing to bring forth.

I can’t tell you how many people I know that have birthed, or are in process of birthing, so many new things in their life whether a new product, a book, paintings, a new job, a new home, a new relationship including one with themselves, a new animal companion, a new idea, a major life leap…and having the courage to bring it all through, realizing the value in that and the value of who they are and what they have to offer. People are actively working that creative alchemy and anchoring in the manifestation of dreams they’ve long had or newly discovered as their truth.

Even just in the category of books alone, something I am also creatively engaged in, I know of SO many people writing books right now and how wonderful is that?! People giving value to their voice and are ready to express what is inside of them. And that, in and of itself, is beautiful and huge!

Everyone has something of value to contribute and will touch lives relative to their energy and message that aligns with others drawn to and needing just that very thing.

I was just sharing about this with a dear friend today, as I learned she, too, was bringing forth her message in a book. I personally know of a couple dozen of people either writing their first book or working on another.

I’m wow’d by this shift where once only a small group of people would be called to even venture into this way of creating and now we have a tapestry of colorful messages and stories popping up like a Cosmic grid of stars and so many ways to make this a reality where doors would otherwise have been closed – thus mirroring our expansion and letting go of rules and limitations that would otherwise have been daunting to the creative impulses you have.

I love that things are shifting to support everyone with opportunity – yet we must each rise to that challenge, as opportunity doesn’t just hand itself over.

You must reach out your hand, take the steps, or even leap into the air believing in your wings to carry you on. You must challenge yourself to open your petals when you otherwise would rather keep them tight in a bud.

When the Sun shines upon you, let the warmth of those rays do their magick, rather than fight them. Open your arms to vitality – to creativity – to YOU….to the MAGICK OF YOU.

And this creative energy isn’t just limited to “artists,” but is available to anyone who desires to push the envelope of their personal expressiveness in life.

Exercising your imagination is invaluable.

It’s an exciting time for alchemizing your very existence. You are an infinitely creative being here to evoke the remembrance of what lies in your heart.

Your creative energy is an expression of the boundless love of All That Is and it is essential in creating new realities of experience. Cultivating the imagination, dreaming, believing, surrendering to and supporting vulnerable and passionate expression, utilizing creative visualization… is all vital to manifestation.

The creative and healing arts are rapidly taking more of an essential role, as they once did, in leading the way to a new experience of life.

Creativity supports what feels most natural in this life and beyond. It IS your essence.

There are always cycles to life and the circle is cycling back in a new way, as we are remembering, reevaluating, and understanding that balance is essential and cultivating natural creative expression is healthy to the state of collective humanity.

All forms of art have the ability to enhance life in amazing ways, not to mention, help you to get more in touch with Source. It is an invaluable expression that through support and cultivation, can help you to connect more with your natural essence as a creative, loving being of individually beautiful expression within the collective diversity.

The more you support these creative impulses, the more you allow yourself to explore things outside the box, to start creating and manifesting what you desire, to experience more magick and synchronicity in your life, to create the greatest works of art you have yet to create, and to find greater sense of peace and inner joy.

Creative energy is the source of creation. If you don’t exercise it, you close the door on the endless possibilities you, as a limitless and powerful being, have the ability to tap into.

Creativity is the power of love expressing itself.

The more you support this expression in yourself and in others, the more beautiful life will be.

I’m grateful for creativity and the power of my creative heart to express itself in any way it feels called to channel what is within.

Right now that has been through the channeling of my new book that is about to hit phase three, but it also has been through the cultivating of our home, garden, and life, nurturing a sanctuary and magickal space for us and our soul family in furry bodies that supports our essence and helps to impart an outflow of the highest through that, implementing and embodying ways to support greater remembrance of wholeness collectively, creating yummies in the kitchen, and finding ways to bring little bits of creative gratitude through to others.

Today was definitely filled with people and experiences to be grateful for and I found myself a few times in joyous tears that rose up through me like a well of love exploding. I realized through some events that I’d hit another huge leap along my creative journey that suddenly snuck up on me while I have been engaged in the courage of each step, and was amazed to see where they were taking me. It doesn’t matter what the outcomes might be. It only matters that I celebrate each step and live in the awe of the now. I’m grateful to myself for supporting the vision I have and seeing it through.

I then saw 2:26 on the clock – my birthday – and realized I was in fact rebirthing again.

We all are, in every creative moment, because choice renews everything.

I’ll leave you with this photo.

succulent flower.jpg

It’s of a tiny succulent clipping I saved. When I recently found a few larger succulents at the local store here that I was looking for, I also found two clippings of different succulent plants that seemed to have fallen off or were broken off of other succulent plants. Those plants were no longer around, but these two little clippings were sitting on the shelf next to the potted succulents. I picked them both up and took them home with the potted ones. I immediately put them in the soil of two of the pots next to the other succulents, in hope that they would grow and weren’t gone already.

They’ve been sitting on my desk for the last week and suddenly this morning I noticed that the tiniest one had a bud, which slowly opened over the course of today.

As you can see, it produced this lovely red blossom of creative vitality and courage from a tiny piece of succulent, no more than an inch or less. I actually see another bud right next to it that I imagine will be opening in the next day or so as well.

And they spoke to me of nurturing and cultivating the tiniest of seed dreams and visions we have, taking those steps even when they seem impossible or others tell you it’s improbable. Not giving up and having the courage to open your petals to the Sun’s rays and to your essence that beckons creative expression.

Like the tomato plant I saved, that no one wanted, these two succulents are coming alive against all odds because someone saw the potential in them and fed that potential with love.

It is 5:55 right now as I close with this.

Never let anyone throw their shadow upon you. Cast the light of your creative power upon every hidden corner of your heart and watch the seeds within blossom. It doesn’t matter how long something takes…it only matters that you immerse each step with your beautiful essence.

Updates: Expanding Options, Synchronous Alignments & Inner Ear Resonance

The last time I blogged was nine days ago on Mother’s Day, but feels like lifetimes. Have you also experienced increasingly fuller days? I feel a lot of work is being done 24 hours a day in the seen and unseen realms, with increased dream travels, work, and remote visits, while in the day an upsurge of incredible alignments, connections, synchronicity, and instant manifestation are taking place alongside the day-to-day intentional work. All the while, veils are parting and portals opening, which the Forest Portal here is revealing more and more, and multiple timelines are becoming available to choose between or expand into simultaneously.

Three years ago I made a big life choice that started setting a new spiral in motion with the theme of merging my Earthly and Cosmic selves in a new way. And while choices are presented every day, I continue not to find any wrong choices, but merely choice that if committed to with full intention and heart, will be successful and fulfilling.

Some of this involves exploring and straddling several timelines in order to feel them out before decisions are made, as these days we don’t just jump in anymore without doing full energetic scans and walking in the potentials a bit. This is being in our multi-dimensionality.

You can see in these photos, a portal of multi-dimensional access revealing itself here.

The first photo taken from our back deck captures it to the right of the left tree trunk in the foreground and right of that you can see almost a straight line of glowing light that is actually the lake peeking through the trees and not the sunset. Although, it is in fact the sun’s rays hitting just right on the water. In person the lake and sun were golden, the mountains on the other side of the lake were darker and contrasting, making it very easy to discern. Here you get a sense that something is opening at that horizon level of the lake.

That photo was captured seven days ago and these, below, were captured two days ago of the sun halo above our Forest Portal, mirroring the portal in the forest itself….as above, so below? They both look like eyes or a nucleus of sorts.

33156276_10215757223470750_3512005512537309184_n33132518_10215757225150792_1079807400153710592_n33101807_10215757224470775_6045909910779068416_n33020812_10215757225950812_2638182377372778496_n33028581_10215757224870785_7300693668686462976_n32978846_10215757226310821_4978766917482315776_n

In between these days some special and big markers for me have occurred, including Thursday 5/17’s being a shared birthday for three people in my life – my precious Cosmo (who would have been 12 in Earth years), my sweet Australian cousin Nella who turned 71 (you may recall her from my posts last year when I met her and my family in Australia for the first time where we also celebrated my Great Great Uncle’s 102nd birthday and her 70th – synchronously and exactly one year ago), and a dear friend Hillary who turned 35 (you may recall her from our Reiki and Horse Retreat we shared together three years ago) – a pivotal time right before huge shifts took place for me and my path and when the Faeries had reminded me that I can now be the “not of this world” me fully.

Yesterday was the twelve year anniversary of my French Grandmother’s passing (on my mom’s side), which signifies a matriarchal shift of energy and transformational shift of the Divine Feminine in our line of family. So a lot of pivotal energies for me framing this last week or so, coinciding with the Taurus New Moon that really showed in growth potential, as well as asked all of us to Earth ourselves some more in a new way.

The 17th also presented an instant manifestation Dave and I had just put out there involving our shared business, which involved deep explorations into where I wanted to go with things and exploring the infinite possibilities. We’ve had similar choices in the past that took some time to fully feel into, but in the end we have been very pleased with our decisions. So, this was another not to rush into and good we didn’t, as it has given us opportunity to review many possibilities and be open to even more.

So, besides my day-to-day things and working on my book when I can, I’ve mostly been focused on choices that have presented themselves in my life, dancing with the potentials, and exploring the different timelines available. The fun thing to discover is how much more mutable I have become, even beyond my native Pisces chameleon energy I’ve been known for. It is interesting to see how I entertain things I wouldn’t have thought of doing so in the past, as I truly open to my evolution with new perspectives and with the knowing that things don’t define me, but provide me opportunity to do or have more than one thing I may desire in unlimited ways.

I feel we are all straddling these interesting new potentials and that collectively this is an integral time of merging – that balance always ringing is as key.

In between all of this I’ve been remaining very balanced (unlike my past self) and grounding and Earthing quite a bit, as my garden became a focus amidst this pivotal decision time over the last week.

I’ve added a few new plants to my very lush Garden Tower, re-engineered the netting so that I no longer need the rabbit pen around it by using left over pavers we had (exactly the amount that created a circle around it) to replace the stones I found in the forest. The stones then were the exact amount I needed to finish the stone perimeter in the front yard and back yard that had been missing small segments from the previous owner – love how that all works out.

pathway entrance.jpg

I’ve enjoyed watching all of my plants flourish, finding new discoveries continuing to grow, and planting Faery flowers and Manzanita in barrel pots we got to sit atop tree stump pedestals that had been cut down years ago.

manzanita.jpg

I so adore these and feel that they’ve added just that little bit of Faery magick to everything and are gorgeous bloom sentinels lining the pathway and keeping watch over all of the creatures great and small here at the front and the back of the house. I LOVE being able to see two of them with Astrid from our Wonderland room. wonderland

That includes my bunny friends who also revealed themselves again. The mother and little baby both showed up on Cosmo’s birthday. Both connecting with Astrid and me for quite a while. In fact, the little one was not afraid at all and allowed me to open the sliding door, step outside and near him and then proceeded to listen to me talk to him for about 5 minutes before I decided to go back inside.

baby rabbit.jpg

He seemed to have waited for me to do so. And then two days ago, on the day of the sun halo portal showing up, he returned again, and again allowing me to come outside and talk to him. A very special relationship is developing with the bunnies here and he feels connected to Cosmo. The mother is a lot more like Nestor and Astrid though.

momma rabbit.jpg

But back to our land here – we don’t plan to do anything elaborate at this time, as we like to keep things more natural looking and with little upkeep, so these potted beauties do the trick. We liked them so much we have three more on the way for the back deck for Manzanita likely – native around here and merges well with all of the ones we already have on our property and in the forest.

At some point our labyrinth idea we have had for years may manifest, but like all things, it’s all about timing.

For now, house projects have dwindled down to only organizing half our garage left to do over the next couple of weeks with shelving on the way. And we’ll likely pressure wash and stain the house this summer to prep it for winter. That’s part of the day-to-day on top of the rental property business Dave and I run together that’s a side balance to my life.

So, while it may seem I’m not doing or putting out much these days, after having pulled away from and retired from some of my life’s work, I do in fact have a full life of different things going on while I am recreating and reimagining myself. This also creates a need to stay focused and make time for my book, as it is one of the other timelines I have merging that feels key.

Life is full and very Earthy on the one hand, which is perfect to keep my Cosmic self in check, merged, and harnessing alchemy, which requires both. It also allows for magick to be brought through into this realm, rather than keeping things and parts of ourselves separate. This also aids peaceful experiences to be the norm, rather than fighting with parts of ourselves like much of the world at large seems so good at.

Things that used to put my emotions and nervous system into a spin in my past, don’t get to me anymore because of this balance I’ve learned and because of no longer having undercurrents of feelings, sensitivities, and no boundaries controlling me. I now orchestrate my life and responses. A welcomed shift. 🙂

I’m still in process of exploring some timelines I may want to pursue, but have also put the keys in drawers on a few, for now, that I may want to revisit another time, as I follow my current heart stream. Astrid has been instrumental with that and I’ll share more about her shortly.

Processes always reveal things naturally, but there are also times we can cut to the chase and not even go down that path. As mentioned, there’s never a wrong, as everything will provide growth potential and some nice gifts to embrace, but if you aren’t capable of hearing your intuitive voice, or have someone to help guide you with that to know the timing on things and when to leave or start something, then perhaps your first instinct of the end result is the telling one that will help you not go down a path that might be more challenging for you to get out of than it might be for someone else in different circumstances.

Many times, my Pisces gift is a knowing of end results based on current momentum and while there may be much to gain along the way, not everyone has the capability based on their current patterns, to embrace all of it right now. While ultimately it doesn’t matter, since we each have our own paths, there’s something to be said for choosing wisely based on you now, and not you later. Just as you don’t try to change someone else. You either except them as they are now, or not, and have no attachment to if they will change at some point.

It’s the same with ourselves. We embrace who we are now and while we could change, there’s no attachment to if we will, and so we make decisions with as much as we know now and our patterns, without huge expectations placed on us to make these profound shifts. If we do, great, but we may not. Let it unfold naturally, as you’ll always get where ever you’re meant to go. So, if the sense is something isn’t going to end well, in the case of perhaps you’re not being able to make changes or understand your intuitive nudges, you may want to go with the decision not to do something and let the cards fall as they may. Unless, of course, you are an adventurer and enjoy the challenge of the moment to see if you can rise to the occasion.

I’ve seen this work itself out many times when people ask me for advice or have worked with me and they have chosen the path most aligned with their current momentum or that will bring about the results the way their souls know best, rather than entertain something else. And, there’s nothing wrong with that because there is no one way. In part this may be some of why I no longer resonate with teaching in the vein I have, as organic processes step more into Nature’s cycles. I love creativity as a form of natural activation of what’s already innately within.

That brings me to alignments – another natural cohesion that can take place – which I mentioned earlier because I’ve been experiencing an astounding amount of connections taking place that are true magick. This reflecting in many ways as new connections (in this life) with souls that have immediate depth, purpose, synchronicity beyond explanation, and producing creative results that are very mutually supportive. All of the details on these are too much to write, but I do want to extend gratitude for the blessings their are ringing in. The two most recent ones revolving around some rabbit creations that are very meaningful and timely for me – divinely inspired for sure.

This spirals us to the last update and most dear to me – Astrid.

That’s where the “inner ear resonance” part to the title of this post comes in. During this full week was also when Astrid started displaying some behaviors I took note of right away. Rabbits ask of us to be on our intuitive tip-toes all the time and ultra present. I noticed she was starting to shake her head and ears more excessively than normal. One might think it cute, but I had a sense there was something up. I kept watch for about 2-3 days noticing it was continuing and not simply just a fleeting irritation.

I then called to make an appointment Friday morning and the first available was yesterday. Interestingly, Astrid stopped the shaking head/ears behavior over the weekend, but I went with my instincts and took her anyway. We discovered that the left ear that had a bit more wax than normal in it last check up, had now created a plug, and the right ear that had no wax, now had some. Also, the inner canal was a bit red. The vet said that her hair follicles in her ear are for some reason not dispelling the wax as they normally do.

I definitely did the right thing in listening to my instincts, as an infection is starting and by being proactive, we can stop it from becoming something really serious. Ear infections for rabbits are not little things. Their ears are so sensitive, but infections can be horrible if not caught and treated in time, including could turn into head-tilt. But we won’t go there, as we’re on top of things and will continue with the current protocol – not fun to administer in her ears – and recheck in about 10 days.

Ears seem symbolically and literally significant right now – I have sensed my own shifting along with my eye sight. Ear canals are likened to birth canals and reflect the spiral and womb. In Egypt, ears aid the gods in hearing prayers so would be like hearing whispers from our higher self or the otherworldly parts of us. Ears provide the ability to be open to hearing new info and perspectives and knowing when to act upon what we receive. They are portals and antennae to receive thoughts, feelings, vibrations, and sound frequencies physically and telepathically. A channel to hear and know the truth within and without and as a result of that deeper inward hearing we can experience greater resonance and alignment on deeper levels of experience.

It’s interesting that I’ve seen Astrid communicating telepathically with so many of the creatures here in heightened collective activity – a variety of birds, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, and even spiders (too many photos capturing these moments to share). They all come outside her door. Even during this last week she started having symptoms, her telepathy has been on all-time high, demonstrating the inner ear, eye, mind, heart are the powers behind everything.

She’s going through her own shifts right now, mirroring my own, and during this week of choices, I can clearly see what Astrid wanted me to know – the answer that reflects my heart is the one to listen to and she’s ready to continue when I am from a deeper level of understanding. I love her so much and love how my rabbit companions have always and only been the ones to ever know how to guide me most effectively. Right now I plan to continue with our work together and help her to get back to her vibrant self with incredible cosmic ears. This is her this morning healing with Buddha.

As for us, we’re looking forward to summer and all the outdoor activities and events upcoming – lots of Tahoe Herbivores’ Meetups to come including our annual Music on the Beach events that are a huge hit, an upcoming Full Moon drumming circle, and hikes and fun! If you live in the area or are passing through during that time, check us out on Meetup.

I have two Reiki workshops this summer, (still some spaces to join both of these) and one co-taught magickal workshop in Fall with Laura (already 1/3 full) – the last of my teaching, as that journey comes full circle. You can register at the links provided.

Dave and I have a 10 day August trip – the only travel right now we have planned in California for two wedding events, family and friend time, and time in Yosemite – a first for me. We lucked out on all of it in getting something last minute that we wanted and being gifted an awesome accommodation too. Dave was invited to speak in Hawaii next year for his book, but we felt into that as not being aligned.

End of Summer visitors are starting as we have Labor Day weekend booked here with friends and then of course Laura coming out. I sense we may get a couple more visitors too, so that will be fun. I’m so looking forward to beach time and kayaking, as well as incredible hikes, but mostly right now I’m looking forward to my book’s completion.

That’s what’s been evolving here  and what’s upcoming – in current sight at least. This is a little longer post to touch in and provide some updates as energetic gauges with all of you in your own worlds, as I haven’t posted for a while and don’t post regularly right now. I find that we always go through similar in our own relative ways, and sharing definitely chimes in those synchronous alignments.

Since I’ve been quiet, I figured I would do a little summary of main themes in my life – a way of also letting you know I’m still here working away on things to bring forth and share.

Seasons are shifting quickly, time is moving rapidly, veils are no longer boundaries, daylight is lingering longer, and expansion is happening in ways you aren’t even recognizing.

Aries Full Moon

While fiery intensity and passionate energy are some of the focuses of this Aries Harvest and Hunter’s/Blood Full Moon, there is also a reminder for tempering things to bring greater balance and harmony into our experience right now. Deepening into the truth of who you are and trusting in that inner knowing to guide you is key, and this will reflect the true beauty of things, as we become more present to the reflections of our relationships to everything within and around us.

We continue being presented with opportunities to strengthen our connection with Mother Earth – Terra – to bring greater stability and anchoring to our lives. It is from that place that peace takes hold, when we are firm with our roots, yet flowing with our expansion.

Security comes from this place of peace within, which can be accessed regardless of our surroundings and chosen regardless of thinking there is no other way. There are always multiple options and perspectives because we are creative beings living in a creative universe. There are no limits on creativity. Only the depth at which you activate your imagination becomes your limitation.

It continues to be a time for showing up more authentically and when we focus on being or embodying, then the doing takes care of itself. Not the other way around.

So don’t worry so much about that.

Focus on nurturing your essence, cultivating your creativity, having gratitude for things you overlook everyday as gifts, and celebrate what’s right in the world. Bringing your joy through into all that you do and share will infuse new life into everything and you’ll be in the flow of constant renewal.

Remember who you are and believe in yourself.

Step into yourself, shine light upon the shadows within, take actions in alignment with that truth, and reclaim empowerment in a healthy way.

Whatever we are presented with does have a way of being overcome. Release attachment to how things need to look and find the hidden gift that can shift your entire experience of life.

Do you enjoy living in the past and in limitation? If not, then rise above this. If you are ready to make leaps in life, the energies are here to support that. Be like Nature and flow with these currents.

This is a good time to get things done and start those things you’ve been procrastinating.

The above photo is of the Full Moon early this morning, which I captured literally about 3 minutes before it fully disappeared behind the mountain. Astrid had woken me with her running around like a speed racer, full of excitement. She definitely did not want me to miss out on seeing it. In person, it was big, clear, and reddish in color. And as soon as I took this quick photo, it was gone, but am glad I captured it to share.

All of my bunnies have shared a connection with the Moon and Astrid is no exception.

In the photo below you can see her basking in its glow, as I always find her each Full Moon and on major cosmic occasions.

This was taken early yesterday morning at 3 am (had to use flash) when I woke and found her in front of the French doors, lake and Moon still as can be even when I went to stroke her. Everything was dark and still except for the strong glow of the Moon illuminating the room, lake, and Astrid.

Her ears were warm with energy despite it being very cold, which was obvious to me that she was moving the Aries energy since throughout the day I’d noticed her ears cold and now at the coldest hours she was warm.

The Full Aries, Harvest and Hunter’s Moon definitely had her attention and Astrid was helping to work with the energies and prepare for the new on all levels to help clear things and create balance and ease.

Wishing everyone an empowering Full Moon. 11:11 as I finish writing this, so activations embedded in this for sure!

Balancing Out My Days with Succulents, Magick Crystal Wands & Reiki

IMG_20170926_074917120_HDR.jpg

After completing my book on the New Moon last Wednesday, this opened up space this last week for things Dave and I needed to handle, free time to spend with dear friends who will be leaving Friday, and an eclectic mix of creative fun and high vibes. This has included fun outings like our airplane flight in the Cirrus G6, a full day at Genoa’s 98th annual Candy Dance festival of artisans, planning and brainstorming, teaching a Reiki workshop, creating a new Magick Crystal Wand, and welcoming new crystal and succulent friends to the family – all before hunkering down into editing mode, which begins today. It feels good to change things up, which will provide fresh perspective when I revisit my book to start getting it in shape.

And it’s been perfect, as usual, in providing balance and perfect alignment of timing to things.

IMG_20170926_074412448.jpg

Yesterday was a full day of Reiki, but not just any Reiki 1 & 2 workshop – a Faery fun one that was filled with expansive discussions and explorations. Things aligned to make teaching a private workshop possible, which was fun to do after being away from it for a couple of years. It’s always amazing how these things are just a part of who you are, as it was like riding a bike again, yet infused with so much more! I don’t officially offer workshops at this time, since my schedule doesn’t support it, but with finishing my book, being in between personal projects and incapacitated with my foot fracture, it was perfect!

And alongside being able to teach Reiki yesterday I also had time for a fun Magick Crystal Wand creation the last couple of days for a very special Faery! I just fell in love with the wood on this one.

IMG_20170926_075028939.jpg

So whimsical and alive! And very nymph-like! It definitely feels to be a muse for dream work manifesting, creativity, inspiration, and connecting with Nature spirits. I love the little knots in it, so perfectly placed, and the feminine curvature like poetry in motion. It feels to me like it sings. I added 3 turquoise along the shaft, anchored with blue sea glass, and the point is a beautiful little clear Lemurian quartz with rainbow inside, containing much ancient knowledge. Everything’s wrapped in thick silver wiring and Robin’s Egg Blue satin cording dangles the Raven, Goose, and Steller’s Jay feathers.

That was fun to get my hands into and shift my creative focus for a bit. The Reiki workshop definitely amped things up too, and ignited something into motion we were waiting on as well.

Gotta love that Reiki! I use it all the time, especially Reiki Healing Attunements that have been working their magick with everything. (Another reminder to all of you who know how to do these, to use them!)

The space right now is also infused with lots of crystal and succulent energy, which I love. With anchoring in I’ve been able to invite more of each of these into my life to begin creating my sacred sanctuary space again.

It feels very magickal and Faery and I’m just thrilled as to how well my succulent gardens are doing….they’re like little succulent forests! I’m also loving the new crystal babies, especially my giant raw Tahoe Quartz!

But yes, I’m a succulent kind of girl so when I saw this sweet turtle at the Genoa Candy Dance I just had to take her home to be a part of my growing succulent family and succulent Faery gardens – the only plant babies I have.

IMG_20170925_153211492.jpg

I’ve named her Gaia after my sweet Russian Tortoise who is no longer with me. I just love her and soon she’ll have a rabbit mate just like she used to so that Gaia can be reunited with her buddy Joy (my bunny who passed too). They are created by Elaine Seniff of California Topiary Creations. I’m in process of ordering my custom bunny as I write! 

I also picked up a tiny little Goldstone Rabbit at the Candy Dance that just danced and sparkled with delight in the sunshine – calling out to me to take her home! And so I did. It was much too magickal and perfect energetically to pass up, and so it came home with Gaia. Seems that was a synchronous call, since it also is great for the bones!

“Goldstone will boost the glow of one’s life force, strengthening the inner self, and chi. With the properties of Copper as well, it is extremely helpful in increasing the strength of the circulatory system, which in turn bolsters the bones and reduces inflammation.” from shimmerlings.com

Anyway, all of this to say, I’ve been enjoying a well-rounded, continuously nurturing time, taking care of myself, enjoying life, making productive use of time, and staying true to the energies that feel aligned. My foot continues to heal…I’m at 2 1/2 weeks now so things are really moving in that regard. And I’ve maintained watchful eye and diligence in taking care of myself.

I feel another round of focus coming on though that involves a lot of my time and energy over the next few months through end of the year.

As always, I’ll continue sharing along the way, but there will be times I won’t be able to with all that is evolving.

My parents are actually coming out today to take me to lunch here shortly, so that will be a nice little outing on this beautiful day, then I’ll be working away on my book.

I actually can’t wait to immerse in it again and read it all through from start to end! Just that feels like it will be igniting! And oh so fun!! It’s actually incredible to think I’m sitting down to read my own book. Oh the wonders of life and what we are capable of creating and doing!

And I’m grateful for all the extra little magick, support, and gifts along the way that make it all so enjoyable!

Remember Who You Are

Astrid Magick Rabbit

If you didn’t believe in magick, Astrid’s here to help with that. She keeps revealing more and more of her brilliance through the dark Mystery that she is. Just like each of us have a lot of untapped and/or unknown magick and alchemy within to bring forth, as we brave the watery abyss of ourselves. As you look into the portal of her reflection, know that it is only because you have the same within you that you can see it. Our hope for you – Astrid and I – is that you remember who you are, return to natural harmony, and live in the integrity, purity, and beauty of that essence always. Shine on and keep singing your song. We love you!

Happy Birthday Astrid!

Just a very short post to honor this incredible being who has graced my life with her presence and magick….Astrid. Today is her 3rd birthday and couldn’t come at a more wondrous time. The love and energy she has infused into my life has been an invaluable gift and means everything to me. I can’t begin to express all that she has assisted me with already and shifted in my life so quickly by her unexpected and very welcome arrival. All of my bunnies are pieces of the whole that make me, me. When they are with me I feel the essence of who I am.

So happy birthday to this beautiful, brave, magickal, mysterious, courageous, precious, hilarious, powerful, tender, incredible girl!! I couldn’t be more grateful that she chose me to be her partner and guardian and that I get to experience all these parts of her and more!

I have a very busy day today, but will post more about the surprises and gifts that have taken place hopefully this weekend.

This morning I woke to a sunrise that revealed our first snow already on the west side of the lake. A beautiful gift on this special day of celebration for Miss Magickal Astrid.

Not only is Autumn approaching quickly with cooler temperatures, rain storms, and even a wild funnel cloud a couple of days ago, but looks like Jack Frost is laying claim to an early winter this year.

Astrid woke me this morning, jumping on the bed next to my head full of excitement for her day. I was sure to get up and give her a big bunch of dandelion, cilantro, carrot tops and mint for breakfast. More goodies to come later and promises of surprises in store for her in the coming months from mom….can’t wait!

Have a bunderful day and a hoppy birthday sweet spirit and love of my heart.
