Starting the Week with Inspiration ~ Snow Enchantment Lights Up Our Hearts Here at the Forest Portal


Snow Rabbit Queen Astrid was filled with hoppy joy from the tips of her ears to the ends of her thumpers this morning and Faery mom mirrored the delight with giggles, sparkly eyes, and tickled-to-joy wings.

Astrid is a true snow bunny who has always found Winter Wonderlands to ignite her heart, ever since she first came home to live with us. I always find her looking out the window at the snow and excited to tell us all about it. In fact, this morning she couldn’t wait for us to wake up and peek outside.

She was zooming around our room to get us up this morning and then followed me into the living room and zoomed around some more. While I looked out all the windows she was right at my feet, eager for me to check it all out, and then we celebrated with snuggles.

We were glad we listened to our intuition and took in all the deck furniture for the season yesterday afternoon. The day before was a beautiful, sunshiny Autumn day and we enjoyed lunch on our deck for the last time.

The winds were rolling in fast yesterday, and so after our hike down to the lake, we gathered everything up, including a last harvest of my Garden Tower for Astrid before the storm hit.

I was so surprised that even though everything had gone to sleep early this year with my being unable to tend to things while we were evacuated and then frost nights that had us needing to shut the sprinklers and water spicket off early, that my Garden Tower had a come back of a 1/3 of the herbs on it. Enough for one lucky bunny to have a few days of fresh deliciousness to add to her snow celebrations.

Last night was cozy movie time, as we heard snow hail coming down outside and this morning we find ourselves with our fireplace going.

We woke to three inches of snow at our elevation of 6600 and much more on the mountain tops above.

It’s so beautiful!

And so inspiring!

I was sad that we had missed the first dusting while we were away on our little retreat recently. It wasn’t much the first time at our house, although it stuck around at the south end of town and the upper mountain tops.

Our house and fur baby sitter had sent us a video of the snow coming down, so at least we got to see it. She told us how much the fur babies were enjoying it, especially Astrid who was at her feet watching with her.

I secretly was wishing for more that we’d be able to experience when home….and then we got it.

Hoping we get an early and big Winter this year, as the environment sure needs it and us snow bunnies sure love it. It’s such a gift and with all the droughts, it’s nothing to be taken for granted.

The change of seasons, my being home now more, and having extra time with projects completed means faery baking and cooking kitchen fun begins.

In fact, yesterday before the storm I made a simple little dish with what I had on hand – a peach, pear, apple cobbler that had the house smelling like holiday spices.

It was the perfect warm welcome to the storm, melting my vegan whipped cream upon touch.

We’re looking forward to our first snow walk today, as it kept snowing this morning and the snow isn’t melting away fast like usual.

I find surprises like these and especially nature-created wonders, to be super inspiring. It makes me feel extra productive and motivated when there’s beauty around and I add to it with creative things that I enjoy.

That’s also why my creative work space is decorated as my personal magick Wonderland sanctuary…It inspires me and nurtures my imagination. I have things in it from all four seasons, as I love what each of them does to my senses.

I hope these snowy windows and cozy, comfort and joy feelings (like this bunny latte) find their way into your heart today.

Wishing you a wondrous week of things that inspire you around each corner.

A Different Yet Rich Christmas


This year has been very different for everyone, shifting even the way many of us celebrate the holidays. While distancing became the passing norm, experiences that invited our creativity became the connective new.

Although 2020 dealt a mixed bag of surprises, one of the key themes Dave and I deepened into was how precious and fragile life and every moment is. So finding ways to make the most of everything and seeing only what there was to be grateful for, kept hitting home as the important reminder.

This year saw us sharing online gatherings with friends and family afar that we otherwise never would have had so much time with.

And personally, this year saw me being able to support and connect with so many incredible souls with online classes and events, that otherwise would never have felt possible. This in turn opened me to much more expansive possibilities I once had felt the doors close on. It also helped to raise the vibrations for others that were ready to take the next leap on their journey – and that simultaneously helps the collective.

Portals are becoming more evident as the veils continue lifting. A new doorway of experience is available as the collective shifts into accelerated being. When I’m in nature, I can feel the layers of richness evolving before my eyes and the possibilities stir under the surface.

This year, while challenging for so many, has offered us an incredible fertile ground for new growth and potential. Where we may have felt freedoms infringed upon, we had the ability to deepen into the most important freedoms no one could ever take away from us – and these include the way we choose to create our reality through perception and reflection and how we experience our inner world that no one can master for us, but ourselves.

We also have always had the music of our hearts to listen to, and our imaginations where we can harness creative energy toward manifesting our hopes and dreams. These are gifts of our spirit in body where we are always free to roam and explore.

It’s one reason I feel it’s important to never lose our innocence, because it’s in that purity of curiosity, wonder, and belief, that so much is possible.

This year we have been spending the holidays on our own. It’s been a year of feeling the connection and love, despite not being with others because that is a bond that can’t be broken by distance.

Love transcends all boundaries and I know this very well with the passing of so many who have been the most dearest to me. There truly is no separation within the vortex of our heart bridges.

Usually we’d be at my parents’ home celebrating Christmas, if we aren’t away on travels. This year we are having an intimate holiday instead, which goes with the theme of our year that also included a wedding on our own.

On some level this feels important for something we have yet to see the why’s of, and even if that’s just about anchoring more into our embodiment, essence, empowerment, and new relationship to everything and everyone through the relationship we have nurtured within over 2020, then that is good enough for me.

If it’s simply to know love more through the dance of our own parts merging as one, then this feels rich with possibility for experiencing a more expansive kind of love with all of creation.

Although we are sharing a sweet Christmas at home, I did get to have a wonder-filled visit exploring my parents’ Christmas realm that is the most elaborate of all years yet.

I didn’t photograph everything, but since it’s been kind of a tradition to take you on a journey through my parents’ ever-childlike-hearts that mirror my own, I thought I’d share some peeks into their gingerbread wonderland that can warm anyone’s heart.

The photos you have seen throughout the post so far are of their creative imaginations come to life.

My parents know how to create warmth and magick all throughout the year and it’s no wonder that I have followed in their footsteps with my own sacred space, as you saw in yesterday’s share of my Wonderland room.

The next photos are of my dear Queen Astrid enjoying her Solstice, Christmas Eve, and Christmas surprises, as every Faery Rabbit Queen deserves sparkly fun to tickle her heart too.

And it’s also part of my path to share how every soul is important, has consciousness, intelligence, feelings, personality, and their own purpose in life.

I may not live any kind of conventional life, nor do I have any resemblance to that kind of family or cocreative business partnerships, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

It’s taken me a lifetime to fully embody, in peace and transparency, my human expression of essence. And while this feels like the beginning still, it’s pure harmony to me.

My dear soul mate in rabbit body – Astrid – The Queen of this realm and my heart, keeps me on my toes, centered, focused, and balanced, while helping to channel the work that we do.

Astrid’s Christmas Eve surprise – a foraging mat with veggies that have hidden pockets for snacks and hay to mimic natural foraging behaviors. Got this for her to enjoy both at home and on our trip away this winter.

Everything I do, create, and move through me is all done with a Magick Rabbit by my side.

“Creating life as a work of art with a Magick Rabbit by my side” isn’t my motto for nothing. It’s the reality of my life. It’s who I am.

And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Me in our Wonderland room in my Christmas Eve magick cardigan – front and back it showcases every woodland creature possible, all uniting together to decorate the Yuletide tree of the forest. I’m also wearing my magick rabbit necklace. 🙂

This is me in my harmony, heart zone.

And the Winter Solstice and Christmas season is part of that harmony, heart zone…the pieces of me that are most meaningful, find ease and grace during this sparkly and enchanted season of pure potential.

Sending out magickal wishes, sprinkles of pixie dust, and bunny nose twitches of energetic potency and love! 

May your hearts grow in depth and size with each embracive breath taken.

Then What to Their Wondering Eyes Should Appear


This magickal Yuletide rendition of one of the most famous Christmas poems has become a favorite of mine. When it was originally shared with me in 2018 by a sweet friend, I did post it here on my blog. Today, I share it again with all of my friends, new and old, to ignite an extra bit of enchantment to stir in your heart as we edge to the end of 2020. The poem speaks to the spirit of the season and reminds us of its true nature and reason. It’s thought to be written by C.C. Williford.

Since Christmas Eve holds a most wondrous place in my heart and happens to be Joy’s birthday – my rabbit companion now a star in the bright sky – I felt to share it today, accompanied by a visual delight of our seasonal lights and simple, nature-inspired decorations here in our cozy mountain home on the forest. I’m also adding photos of the office and creative space I share with Astrid – however these lights are what enchant our room year-round. Hehe! Astrid and I love having wonder as our daily partner.

Wonder is a dear friend who has been with me through thick and thin. I never ever take for granted an encounter or experience no matter how often it happens. Every time the snow falls is the first time. Every time a squirrel runs by is a tender moment. Every time I see a tree, plant, landscape, way the light hits is always a sacred encounter. Every time I come across another being is a remembrance igniting a new depth of love. May wonder wander through life with you, enchanting each moment with possibility.

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE YULETIDE

Twas the night before Yuletide and all through the glen
Not a creature was stirring, not a fox, not a hen.
A mantle of snow shone brightly that night
As it lay on the ground, reflecting moonlight.

The faeries were nestled all snug in their trees,
Unmindful of flurries and a chilly north breeze.
The elves and the gnomes were down in their burrows,
Sleeping like babes in their soft earthen furrows.

When low! The earth moved with a thunderous quake,
Causing chairs to fall over and dishes to break.
The Little Folk scrambled to get on their feet
Then raced to the river where they usually meet.

“What happened?” they wondered, they questioned, they probed,
As they shivered in night clothes, some bare-armed, some robed.
“What caused the earth’s shudder? What caused her to shiver?”
They all spoke at once as they stood by the river.

Then what to their wondering eyes should appear
But a shining gold light in the shape of a sphere.
It blinked and it twinkled, it winked like an eye,
Then it flew straight up and was lost in the sky.

Before they could murmur, before they could bustle,
There emerged from the crowd, with a swish and a rustle,
A stately old crone with her hand on a cane,
Resplendent in green with a flowing white mane.

As she passed by them the old crone’s perfume,
Smelling of meadows and flowers abloom,
Made each of the fey folk think of the spring
When the earth wakes from slumber and the birds start to sing.

“My name is Gaia,” the old crone proclaimed
in a voice that at once was both wild and tamed,
“I’ve come to remind you, for you seem to forget,
that Yule is the time of re-birth, and yet…”

“I see no hearth fires, hear no music, no bells,
The air isn’t filled with rich fragrant smells
Of baking and roasting, and simmering stews,
Of cider that’s mulled or other hot brews.”

“There aren’t any children at play in the snow,
Or houses lit up by candles’ glow.
Have you forgotten, my children, the fun
Of celebrating the rebirth of the sun?”

She looked at the fey folk, her eyes going round,
As they shuffled their feet and stared at the ground.
Then she smiled the smile that brings light to the day,
“Come, my children,” she said, “Let’s play.”

They gathered the mistletoe, gathered the holly,
Threw off the drab and drew on the jolly.
They lit a big bonfire, and they danced and they sang.
They brought out the bells and clapped when they rang.

They strung lights on the trees, and bows, oh so merry,
In colors of cranberry, bayberry, cherry.
They built giant snowmen and adorned them with hats,
Then surrounded them with snow birds, and snow cats and bats.

Then just before dawn, at the end of their fest,
Before they went homeward to seek out their rest,
The fey folk they gathered ‘round their favorite oak tree
And welcomed the sun ‘neath the tree’s finery.

They were just reaching home when it suddenly came,
The gold light returned like an arrow-shot flame.
It lit on the tree top where they could see from afar
The golden-like sphere turned into a star.

The old crone just smiled at the beautiful sight,
“Happy Yuletide, my children,” she whispered. “Good night.”

Taking a Soulful Time Out


We’ve had on and off good, moderate, to not so great smoky air days up in the Tahoe basin since the fires in the west started, which has created a back and forth pendulum experience of heavy outdoor exercise, to light exercise, to indoor-only exercise. It’s been reflective of busier days and the need to focus on getting things done when unable to venture outdoors, so it’s always perfect. However, we’ve been craving a little getaway, since we haven’t been anywhere since the beginning of the year and especially because of the fuller days and wanting to breathe in and enjoy as much of the now and life while we can, as well as nature’s gifts as possible. Plus, I’ve learned that I can give even more when I listen to my needs and nurture them as well.

And even though I had bookending online Reiki classes I was/am teaching between the 4th and 11th, it felt exactly why a time-out would be supportive. Including the sense I have that everyone in the group classes has a lot of energetic changes they’re shouldering and responding to, so I am adjusting to meet and integrate them the best I can.

Sometimes we think we couldn’t possibly create the space and time for what we need, but that’s exactly when we need it the most.

I’ve shared this before, but it feels worth sharing again:

Many believe that in order to have fulfillment or achieve certain goals that that entails working harder and keeping your nose to the grind.

But rather than push forward, sometimes the best thing is to just take a spontaneous break, rest, do something self-nurturing, commune with Nature…stop forcing and start being.

When you think you “should” be doing more, the more you really need is likely self love and balance. This will invigorate, harmonize, inspire, and draw to you more of what is really for your highest good.

It is the moments where you break out of the mold, and tune in to the nature of you, that the greater ease and magick happens.

“If your heart needs a vacation, take it somewhere serene. If your spirit needs nourishment, feed it well. If your soul needs a boost, surround it with joy. If your body needs rest…then rest. If you need a new direction, pull out your own life map and simply enjoy the ride. And along the way, keep your eyes and soul open, for you never know what you may find.” ~Jacque Bliss 

The Pisces me loves water, and Dave being a water sign as well is why we live by so many lakes, creeks, ponds, and rivers, including majestic Lake Tahoe, which is like the ocean itself in both vastness and energy.

But every now and then, a little oceanside immersion does the body and spirit good. I’m grateful that a Pacific Ocean getaway is within only a few hours drive, so we can dip in and out as guided.

We weren’t sure where we’d be headed to this week, since the air quality on the west isn’t great again in nearly every one-day drivable direction. But we found an opening the morning we left with full-week clear air forecasts and have enjoyed the fresh salty air and forest variety since.

Upon landing we were led to an inexpensive hotel just three minutes walk to the beach, wharf, waterfront cliff walks and within walking distance to conveniences including natural food stores and vegan eats for take out or outdoor eating to suit our intermittent fasting lifestyle and safety protocols.

Hearing the ocean and sealions every morning and evening has been like a lullaby coddling the soul. Days full of immersive and extensive miles (10-15) hiking, walking and biking while taking in the oceanside and moist faery forest realm scents have made for luxuriating sleep-filled nights and carefree days.

And while we have tons of forest by us, the change of scenery exploring the Redwood and Oak tree rich enchantment, alongside plentiful varieties including Eucalyptus, and moss, fern, and ivy-enriched Elemental-filled worlds were a sweet change that welcomed us warmly. Then add all the Autumn feels and you get a wonderland of comfort and joy.

Plus, with it being off-season, we had mysterious, Devic Kingdom rich trails all to ourselves with many mystical eyes that we could feel upon us. And even though a rustle in the leaves sometimes was a forest creature peeking at us, like this pair of deer, it was not always an animal stirring, that’s for sure.

Our first full day combined both forest and ocean abundant miles of enrichment – the perfect way to balance and acquaint to the energies.

The forest floor covered in fallen colored leaves and the scent of musky freshness washed over me with welcome, as the ancient Redwood giants of the world and the Oak wisdom keepers whispered pieces of the Great Mystery.

It was experienced like a deep activation in my root chakra, which in fact induced slight tailbone aches that I get when something ancient or dna-connected is transforming.

Alongside timely feather gifts, magickal train whistles (I love trains!), a flock of wild turkeys

(pictured is the largest of them that was guarding – I shared a cool video of the flock on Instagram) foraging in the forest, tree portals galore, evidence of forest creatures having passed

through recently, mystical and even spooky fun deep realms, fuzzy black

and warm red caterpillars, tree gifts, and on later days a dead raven, abundant cliffside farmland including a Charlie Brown Great Pumpkin pumpkin patch, and a secret area of the last batch of late, wild blackberries…it’s all had the perfect hints and epitome of October essence you dream of.

And it all made for the perfect welcome into this different realm.

There are days when the magick is so tangible that the Otherworld becomes the only world – and the days this week have definitely been just that. I felt my essence alive and receiving a rekindled boost.

And equally activating were the majestic cliffs and natural coastal formations, while ocean life swam and flew all around us.

That ancient Lemurian essence gently knocking the soul pieces awake, while The Fae tickled my roots in other ways, infused with a little Gaelic twist.

Connection to everything is a given whether we are aware of it or not. When I’m in different environments, it’s ones of the things I notice right away – how the tapestry is woven between me and all things regardless of placing me in a different world for the moment.

I take notice of the reflections and how they show up. And I feel my heart beat as one with life around me.

Days were filled with energy in motion, as we immersed in several outdoor activities a day to enjoy the outdoors and create well being through body integration of moving energy.

“Keeping your body healthy is an expression of gratitude to the whole cosmos – the trees, the clouds, everything.” ~Thich Nhat Hanh

One of our days included miles of gorgeous and fun single track bike trails riding along the cliffs’ edge – my favorite biking trail ever that I mentioned to Dave was like a Disneyland ride. It moves along like a snake and has enough easier to moderate elements to add a weeeee and suspense effect.

Below, water crashing on secluded beaches and natural rock formations, with colonies of sealions (you can see in the photos) and sea birds calling out.

The path wove along beautiful vistas of trees, brush, over train tracks, through abundant Autumn

farm fields of gorgeous veggies (like the artichokes and brussels sprouts pictured), and included that pumpkin patch and surprise late patch of wild berries I mentioned, as seen above. It was quite the adventure.

Pelicans, seagulls, egrets, and cormorants would glide next to us as we moved along the path with even a hawk soaring low with purposeful unison. Hawk seemed to follow us from our mountain home to the ocean, as she is a strong spirit guide for me and us – specifically red tailed hawk on this trip. This is where I found the transitioned raven – which felt meaningful with us approaching the time of thinnest veils between worlds.

We loved the bike trail so much we returned a second time and while I came across the dead raven again, a very alive raven was waiting for me.

He was huge and sat there very deliberately, wanting me to stop and come closer. He was making an interesting kind of clucking combined with an almost regurgitating sound and continued until I decided to continue on. Then he took off in unison with me, soaring over the ocean.

Two more deer caught my attention on this second bike trip too. They were grazing at the edge of the beach not far from several different flocks of large birds. One of which created a procession, marching in a single file line toward a back bay area.

You can see the beginning of that line of birds in the sand to the right of the deer below.

It’s a very surreal bike ride and as you glide along you feel the animals, wind, and waves all around, moving together as one.

Time stood still, yet in connective motion and shared feeling of heart and soul liberation despite human body frameworks we inhabit.

Every day had me discovering little treasures of divine alignment. Every time I would say this area feels like such and such bird lives here and that I’d love to find a feather awaiting, it would be. Each day held several feather gifts from a variety of birds (some of which I’m not sure of their origin, but some include hawk, owl, and raven), usually in pairs of two at a time directly after I stated an intent. These are a few of the feather finds pictured above. Dave says I am the feather master and have a hawk eye when it comes to finding them. 🙂

Rather than go into any more details of what this little side-detour has initiated, I’ll just share the energy of my favorite photos and some of the incredible vistas, sense-filled experiences, messengers, treasures, and sign posts of the journey at hand. You may get a sense of things from them alone, as well as your own activation or inspired guidance.

All of that, alongside the ocean herself and all that she reflects – unexplored depths, unknowns, deep hidden treasures for the courageous explorers of shadowy caverns and murky emotional/subconscious waters, etc. point to an unearthing of expanse yet to discover and integrate.

It also speaks to this layer of deep emotional patterns that is key for us to be aware of and integrate – much of why we are seeing and experiencing triggers out in the world right now is to help with this.

There were also a couple of eerie door-knockers and wake-up close calls right in the beginning of this adventure to help “crack” open and elevate adrenalin response into an even higher level of awareness, drive home the need for staying clear of “other’s” energies and projections, strengthen boundaries, continue to balance and ground, stay open to change, listen to and trust guidance, and remain in my heart despite what’s going on around me.

Definitely feels like a mini rebirthing continues similar to, but not as dramatic as, four years ago during Magick Bus times and am grateful always for the divine protection, guidance, and cosmic flow of love that streams through.

It’s like a new version of me/us is in preparation and process, just like the caterpillars I was seeing in warm red/rust and black – correlating to that root chakra activation. The woolly bear caterpillars we have at home are black and gold, so the color shift feels significant in focusing at the bottom root of things and makes sense given the collective energies.

There was a lot of focus around the lower chakra colors on this trip in reds, rusts, oranges, and yellows – mirroring the beautiful fall leaves lining every trail and the messengers that drew my attention, including Red Tailed Hawk and the gorgeous wild turkeys.

I also saw a beautiful Autumn-dressed moth in gorgeous brown, orange, and black wings on the golden fields between the faery forests we hiked. Her orange eyes stood out to me, outlined and dotted in black.

And later I found a perfect butterfly mussel shell on the beach with gorgeous, iridescent blue and pearly coloring and a darker spot on each wing like the eyes I saw on the stunning moth. The butterfly and moth symbolism of transformation and rebirth speaking loudly. It also doubles as the heart of the ocean with the reflection of how much more we can exercise our heart muscles to open wider and deeper.

What also kept showing up, seemingly in reflection to my bright sunflower yellow bathing suit I brought with me (with peace signs, hearts, stars and bunnies on it of course), despite it being Autumn, was yellow flowers around every corner. I saw so many, but these were a few of my favs.

They were joyously speaking to me of joy, new life, and hope.

I know it can be hard to keep up the hope in the face of what seems like constant adversity, but I can tell you from experience, which I likely will elaborate more on down the road, that I’ve gone through several chronic life experiences, conditions, debilitating setbacks, and nearly devastating-to-me hardships that lasted years on end, but they did all have a silver lining that eventually enveloped me in the light at the end of the dark tunnel.

It’s not always easy to see the way out and it’s not always easy to even give ourselves a way out, but the possibility is always there. Being softer on ourselves and finding more ways to love what IS and who we ARE regardless of any specific result, is a door opener.

Sometimes it’s not so much about healing or perfecting an outcome, but about surrendering to what’s showing up as the experience it is, outside of any judgments we place upon it.

And sometimes we also just need to take a soulful time out, even if that simply is a break from the norm to explore the adventure of where letting go might lead.

That could simply be an adventure of our imagination, as there truly is no separation between what is perceived and felt. The more vivid our world we create in our hearts and minds, the more real and fulfilling it will be.

When I can’t physically get away or do something I would like to, I do it anyway.

I do imagination well and so can you.

And if you have a challenge with envisioning magickal realms or inspiring beauty and nature adventures, I hope that the photos and expressions I share can help you to get there.

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. 😉

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.

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.

Everyday I Fall In Love A Little Bit More


24796551_10214361690263292_2730219745401257661_n

Living here is such an incredible reminder of what is possible in terms of creating and manifesting reflections of my heart’s desires and having the peace I feel within, mirrored to me. When I first saw this house, despite knowing we would be doing a complete internal demolish and remodel, I knew the footprint, its energy, the layout, and the essence of the land here was meant for us. I always felt the end result and not the process and the Faeries kept reiterating this to me with signs, messages, and to continue to trust even when challenges arose. They told me to be patient and they would handle the details, which they did and have.

Although we’re still in remodeling mode, the major work is starting to wind down and we’re beginning to see the fruits of our labor come together.

This includes the magick of the forest land we sit on and our expansive forest backyard.

Yesterday our contractors left early so we had opportunity just before sunset to do a short hike out back. All of the photos you see here are of this trail we took from our home.

We have a whole grid work of hiking/biking trails right off our deck and yesterday we discovered a new one, which was this big loop that takes us through the forest, across a creek, along it, then through meadows, and back into the woods and along a second creek that then returns us home.

It was gorgeous and the light of the day had an aura of golden glow that just lit everything up with enchantment.

Soon this whole area will be covered in thick blankets of snow and we’ll be able to wander to our heart’s content on snow shoes. Dave intends to try out cross country skiing too, which will be perfect here as well.

To have this as our backyard is just incredible. I would say “pinch me,” but I know I’m not dreaming.

It’s taken me nearly 45 years of my life to get here, but it’s been worth the work and wait. Couldn’t have happened at a better time and goes again to show you that all things have their divine alignments, as now is when this all means the most to me and supports the next phase of life I’m entering.

Wonderland Delight ~ Equinox Enchantment


21686243_10213718403021513_6183648663430068662_n.jpg

On this doorway between Summer and Autumn, I’m celebrating all of it AND Winter! Yes, just as I suspected (and just may have had my own little additional hand in with Jack Frost and the Faeries), the snow began to fall right after I completed my book and then continued yesterday on and off, and all through the night (that has me singing my fav from Cyndi Lauper now…All through the night….). This left an incredible, fresh wonderland this morning for me to wake to.

21687549_10213718403781532_492839788084385554_n.jpg21686209_10213718404221543_7131155818041849000_n.jpg

But that was preceded by an awe-inspiring sunset last night too, which had me in “ooo’s and ahhh’s” over and over. It felt like the light and portal I was watching before me, was taking place inside my heart and spirit.

21686205_10213718194656304_7064846556915835476_n21686269_10213718195176317_3949336649960431463_n21686206_10213718195896335_1096190490502063532_n

Even the magickal Astrid was giddy with delight at her very first snow, running all around the rooms like a little speed racer this morning. I SO enjoyed watching her look out the window at the snow – a Faery tale image come true. This was her last evening looking out at the new-fallen snow.

IMG_20170921_184639684.jpg

And then this morning with the glowing sun beginning to light this new world in front of her like a warm Cosmic candle.

IMG_20170922_070354395_HDR.jpg

She is so much like a snowshoe hare to me, I could imagine her out in it, and turning to white with the touch of her silver toes to the snow beneath her.

21761710_10213719593051263_1016348230459656078_n.jpg

She also reminds me of a harp seal. This photo is from yesterday, as she laid all relaxed and full of joy from the vision of snow. She takes on so many forms, but this photo captures her harp seal imitation, as I often call her. So perfect for the wintery snow scene… Flippers and all, which mom would likely do better with too, hehe!!

IMG_20170922_064606845_HDR.jpg

And this is our picture window that is like a portal to me into another world.

I watched the sun rise over the snow blanketed vista, this morning, creating cotton candy pink clouds and light. Then clouds danced across the Lake’s surface like steam rising and geese began to fly.

21764823_10213718403301520_9186129113622538330_n

Just incredible.

I even put my one bare foot in the snow on the deck for the first time and hobbled my way with my healing boot on the other across to the banister to take it all in.

IMG_20170922_065553307_HDR.jpg

Enchantment ran through me and tickled my heart with delight.

And as the pink clouds dispersed, everything turned to white and icy blue in the full light of morning. The clouds continued to dance and glide across the water like the world was upside down and the lake became the sky.

As above, so below.

IMG_20170922_072212000_HDR.jpgIMG_20170922_072201882_HDR.jpg

I hope you enjoy these photos shared from this magickal portal to your own heart.

Magick Crystal Wands Now Available


It’s been a busy few days, so it took a while to find the right space to tune in with the Magick Crystal Wands and confirm which would be offered and which, if any, would remain with me. My initial instincts were correct, although I have a special bond with each, on which one was in fact meant for me. So, I’ll just briefly share the three that are available and you can explore this link for more photos and information on each of them if they call: Magick Crystal Wands

But first off, yesterday was quite a gift as we made our way to Fallen Leaf Lake where I’ve discovered hidden treasures in the past, including some feathers and wand. The road in is challenging to get in on because of all the snow and no plowing there, so all of Winter it’s not been accessible. But some vehicles have gone through more recently it seemed, making a pathway and so we entered, parking in a different spot, as it got harder as we went along and then trekked across the snow to the lake.

It was fun to discover that around the perimeter of the lake it was all thawed out, but getting in there was full of snow. This was what seemed like divine timing and meant to be, as there was a treasure chest of gifts awaiting me, not to mention some magickal finds like this Aladdin’s lamp (yes, I made some wishes) and some sweet mallard hen feathers after a connection with a mallard couple. The stones along the beach at water’s edge were gorgeous too in marbled rainbow colors.

It truly was a beautiful experience, including the connection with the ducks and how the hen literally gifted me 6 feathers (nice symbolism) after they deliberately came over and she preened and pulled them out for me to get once they left to nap by a rock in the water. That was after they swam over and walked up to where I sat to say hi when I called them over. I smiled with delight.

And to my surprise this thawing unveiled a lot of wood pieces singing out to me and so yes, there will be quite a few more wands in the future. I also found me another amazing staff.

Although I now know there will be more, this is not going to be for some time, as I need to focus on some important things right now, then will be making my large pieces first, and then the wands. 

That was a little detour, although connected, to share the magick of yesterday and the future surprises.

But back to my original blog post link I shared above.

In that post, you can learn about all that has gone into them, the materials/elements, including time spent infusing each with added intention and activation by any or all combinations of sound through my 432 hz binaural beat theta wave pair of crystal sound bowls, chakra drum, tibetan bowl, and my own voice.

I did receive quite a few messages from people about which one they initially felt a draw to, so I’ll be contacting them first, in order of messages received, to see if in fact they still would like to bring them into their life.

Many times it can be an instant connection meant to be, other times it’s about that energy exchange in the moments of seeing them that is only needed, and still other times the investment of commitment doesn’t translate the same as desire.

So, if you feel one of these are for you, you can still message me with your desire, as they are not yet spoken for officially.

These are the three available with their corresponding value. Each will come with a small accompanying gift.

Neptune & Nymph Wand (God of the Sea, sacred song and spirit of the Nymphs, and MerFaery energy) – $270 + shipping/handling – SOLD

 

Lightning Rod, Sacred Spiral Wand (Grouse feathers and powerful transformation energy) – $130 + shipping/handling – SOLD

 

Twin Seer, Bridge Weaver Wand (As Above, So Below, Goose feathers and double focused energy) – $300 + shipping/handling – SOLD

Magick Crystal Wands ~ Spirit in Action


I’ve been mentioning my being absorbed in channeling some creations alongside my current focuses, and on social media I posted a sneak peak of these pieces a couple of days ago. I know several people were anxious to learn more and see more of them, so this is that share. I didn’t set out to create them, but the nudge was strong and therefore I did. This turned into creating Magick Crystal Wands, but of a very whimsical, raw, organic, and imperfectly perfect nature. Substantial, mystical, and fashioned as if the Fae themselves hand crafted them from treasures collected in Nature from her forests, waters, and retrieved from Cosmic portals.

Here the wands rest, charging with my other personal wands and crystals after their sound baths.

 

These Spirit friends are a gentle way to invite powerful energy to partner in rituals, healing, activating intention, drawing and focusing concentration of energy. They are personal instruments that hold a lot of power. Wands carry a very male oriented energy, but each of these has channeled through as an integration of sacred male and female in harmony by the additional elements interwoven.

Every twist and weave is deliberately threaded and every piece lovingly placed, all by hand without tools and completely surrendered to guidance channeling through, with me as a conduit for their manifestation.

I didn’t even envision or imagine what they would look like. I had no idea until the moment, what was happening and as if in trance, I just allowed my hands to create the magick wanting through. It was flowing, fun, potent, and even physically grueling to my hands and fingers, amazing me at each corner how every single part fit like a puzzle piece, even though they’d been gathered at different intervals, times, and places.

I was amazed at how the flow and shape of the wood itself was the perfect curvature of the crystals that were to be placed there. And the feathers, found along our Magick Bus journey, were the perfect energy to carry the wands on wings of intent and empower their Air nature to channel Spirit.

The branches of wood are spirited with life force and almost lit up on the forest floor while hiking, as if beckoning me to hear their call, “It is me. I am ready and offer myself to your hands. Please be my channel of awakening to the purpose I am alive for.”

And so I listened.

I left the wood just as it was, other than to softly sand into splinter-less touch that absorbed the linseed oil I lovingly nurtured into their skins for longevity, which produced a lovely sheen and enhancement to their natural beauty and color.

And the rest was also about listening to the elements wanting to be brought forth, silver, gold, and silver/gold blends of wire, satin cord and thread of robin’s egg blue, crystals and stones, metal floral/leaf adornments, vegan leather, feathers from my beloved bird tribe, and lots of love.

This was a first for me to use wire wrapping and it was intentional that with everything, including this, for it all to be a mixture of raw and refined. Nothing was to be perfected in mind, but flowed in Spirit.

And each was infused with added intention and activation by any or all combinations of sound through my 432 hz binaural beat theta wave pair of crystal sound bowls, chakra drum, tibetan bowl, and my own voice.

They are ancient, timeless, and also seem to have walked through portals from places and realms beyond this one, perhaps reflections of pieces I’ve retrieved along the journey to manifest at this time and place for what is to come.

And they do indeed blend a synergy of balancing elements within each as well, drawing the power and beauty of their purity in a very focused directive.

Nature and Cosmos are both alive and strong in each.

The ancient and visionary are merged.

The power and benevolence of boundless love for the highest good is alive and strong.

And they have manifested during some potent time periods of recently, including one being fully birthed on the Pisces New Moon Eclipse – my birthday.

For now I’ve taken a break before continuing with the rest of the creations to come – to include a scepter, 2 staves, and a headpiece – as there is much to integrate and prepare for with these very large and even more involved channelings that I’ve been told will be instruments for opening portals.

I wasn’t sure if any of the creations would be offered to others, but I’m sensing that likely 3 of the 4 Magick Crystal Wands will be. The large pieces unlikely, but either way I will share them when they come to fruition.

I have a feeling I know which one will be staying with me. That said, I’m still awaiting final word on which will be available, but am told to share them now, as perhaps this will be confirming as to the ones reaching out to others. Please feel free to message me if one speaks to you.

There is much more to them than I can write in words, but perhaps you’ll feel that through viewing them.

And with that, I’ll share them each, in the order they were created. I love them all SO much. It will be hard to part for sure.

The first is my Neptune & Nymph Wand.

This piece is quite something and embodies Neptune’s potent energy (God of the Sea) along with the sacred song and spirit of a Nymph. There is an essence blend of MerFaery here too.

Encrusted with Ice Quartz, turquoise, and Double Terminated Quartz down its shaft, a thicker silver wire wraps them in a webbing reminiscent of scales on a fin or ancient netting unsuccessfully capturing a Mermaid yet here now holds her treasures dear.

Near the bottom of the webbing thread of satin cord and silver wire, encircled like a floral wreath, I’ve threaded what might have been the crown worn by a Nymph that slips in and out of waters from the woods, or a MerFaery who loves all of Nature, but finds home in the sea. Both being able to slip in and out of land and water, but most at home with watery worlds that remind her of her origins and the Cosmic source of all life.

The wand is almost scepter-like and the way the wood naturally is carved, is like it is dripping with the waves of Neptune’s energy, or a light-bearing torch to travel to the depths of the ocean’s abyss. It almost looks like a wax casting and the area where the stones sit, is like a doorway through the wand revealing its inner beauty and jewels within its treasure chest sanctum.

Sitting atop the forked wand is a powerful Lemurian Quartz with a rare timelink to the past.

I think it all speaks for itself.

 

The next comes to us as a wizard’s gift. This is my Merlin & Lady of the Lake Wand.

This wand called to me from the shore of Fallen Leaf Lake here and I was taken back by its appearance immediately. It was already fully carved, smoothed (as if someone had rigorously sanded it), and has a beautiful golden blonde coloring with perfectly spaced dots in a design along its shaft. I do not know the type of wood it is, but I know it is not of this world, as it was ominously placed out in the open like this for me to find it, singing to me like a wizard’s wand would.

On its own, without any added adornments, it is a powerful and complete wand, but I immediately knew that it desired elements to bring forth the harmony of its embodiment.

This to include three irridescent blue Mallard feathers and one Blue Jay feather at the center. Along with these beauties, there sits a Tibetan Quartz above them at center and a combo of silver and gold wire individually woven and ending in triple spirals.

And at the top, a very special Quartz point wrapped in an intertwined gold and silver wire ending in a spiral at each side.

The Quartz at top is a small point, but large in its presence. Since this wand was already potent on its own and had a perfectly rounded bottom and softened diagonal point, it did not want any large stone, but simply one to enhance and act as a fine-tuned channel at top.

It was evident which crystal it would be, as only this one had the exact slant to its bottom that perfectly matched flush to the top of the slant of the wand.

But as small as this Quartz point is, it is no ordinary crystal. It happens to be the one that Fiver, the mouse who I helped transition in peace and love, jumped aboard to fly off into the otherworld when he transitioned.  But to add to that, when I looked even closer I discovered perhaps why this had been the crystal chosen to be with him and why it was so powerful for journeying beyond.

It happens to be a Channeler Transmitter Quartz, or Dow or Trans-Channeler Quartz, as they are known with perfect 3-7-3 and 7-3-7 sides to its faces, front and back. You can read more about that here: Dow or Trans-Channeler Crystal. Divine balance and connection with Universal Truth being its essence.

The Mallard Duck feathers embody spiritual freedom, grace on water, self expression, emotional strength and protection, mystic and seer, combines land and water balance, integration, and manifestation, knowing what to do and how to do it, graceful self confidence, knowing, preparedness, letting go, speaking truth, intuition, gentle flow, the now, and being that they walk the Earth, swim in the waters (fresh and ocean), and roam the sky, they are links between Heaven and Earth, or this world and another, and also represent eternal life.

Blue Jay brings the energies of clarity (in this case double clarity/vision to express purity and truth of heart and soul with great clarity of thought in bringing these through to share), communication, presence, wise and balanced use of personal power, resourceful adaptability for ease, creative self-expression and assertion, sound and song, authenticity, and bringing higher thoughts into action.  Their crest that reaches into the heavens, directly links both Earth and Universal/Cosmic energies, bridging them for integration and active expression of divinity brought into embodiment.

So both bird spirits linking and bridging here and beyond, personal and collective, immediate and bigger picture.

 

Then we have my Lightning Rod, Sacred Spiral Wand.

This lovely wand, although more fine than the others, is a presence of power in motion. The wood is a rich and deeper brown, smooth and perfectly contorted to flash that energy through like lightning.

Again, the tiny Lemurian Quartz point that sits atop the end has the perfect shape to fit the groove at the end of the wand like no other crystal, but it, could do.

It is wrapped in silver wire, which also swaddles the three lovely grouse feathers flowing from its shaft and then spirals down further – the only wand with descending/ascending spiral like that of the personal power symbol embodied within the Sacred Spiral that the Grouse is connected with.

This is so because of the way a Grouse moves and dances in a spiral – an ancient symbol of birth and rebirth. Their medicine is reflective of a whirlpool or tornado spiral that moves one to center, which allows for vision and enlightenment.

The spiral movement of the silver wire also mirrors the movement of energy embodied in this wand.

I’m reminded of the Celtic Goddess Etain (pronounced Ay-deen) also known as the “Shining One” and is one of the White Ladies of the Fae for some reason. Etain helps us know that any challenge, even those that feel overbearing, can be overcome and we can always regain our shining light, while knowing our true beauty and authenticity, though superficial and illusory things will fade away. Her presence is a guiding golden light on the path of transformation, while showing us the wisdom way to balance, wholeness, and rebirth back to our own light.

There is a quality to this wand reminiscent of this message, but also combining the impactful transformation available to us all through change that can suddenly and surprisingly flash into our lives like lightning, but creates the ability to rise again more beautifully and authentically like the phoenix. This wand draws gentle, but immensely powerful energy to aid your focus so this journey becomes more natural like a spiral.

 

And last we have my Twin Seer, Bridge Weaver Wand – As Above, So Below.

This beautiful wood spirit is the longest of them all and has a lovely golden amber with darker brown vein and natural cracks. It’s like two wands in one with a bend at center whose curvature precisely and perfectly aligned flush with the gorgeous, rainbow infused Lemurian Quartz that sits there.

Above and Below this Lemurian are two turquoise stones all wrapped in gold wire that ends at two spirals.

The handle is fashioned with brown vegan leather intentfully woven with robin’s egg blue satin cord and gold wire.

And at top you’ll find a gorgeous self-healed Lemurian Quartz whose base is a cluster of gorgeous new growth crystals with pinky apricot coloring. It, too, sits perfect at the top and is held in place with gold wire that also cradles 10 Quartz points and 3 Goose feathers.

These 10 Quartz points act as an extra conduit between both main Lemurian Quartz points, as well as reflects like a mirror, deflects as protection, creates a bridge to journey from one experience, time, place, to another, and creates the ripples and surface of water its Goose friends gracefully glide upon.

Again, these 10 Quartz points perfectly fit and completed the top of the wand, as that area was naturally peeled away by Nature, leaving the perfect alcove for the crystals to embed themselves flush, as an extension of the wood and becoming one with it.

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.

For some reason I am reminded of the energies of the Norse Goddess Frigga and Norse God Odin. Frigga’s sacred animal is the Goose.

Field of Stardust Dreams


Cosmic puffs of dandelions consumed me in wondrous inspiration.

Like whirling dervishes of eternal magick, they enchanted me into the dance.

The portal to a field of stardust dreams was opened and enchanting mysteries invoked alchemy within.

A rich truth was awakened without need to understand.

Any wish I had, I could command.

Welcome back the Faeries giggled.
