9/11 Blessing and Request

-
Hello Fellow Travelers, 
May you take a moment out of your day today to pause and reflect on your many blessings. No matter what may be happening for you, take pause. Gather for one moment with me, as you read these words and take in the healing love, the compassion, kindness and grace on offer. 
May your day be filled with creating simple memories today. 
May you pause many times and fill in the silence with your heart.
May you receive the love on offer, simply because you are here.
May you be reminded that we are all here for short time, and may you make that truth a prayer and a promise to leave the world a better place. 
May you then do so, in your own way, with the gifts of your heart. 
Blessings to you today.


We each have our own version of life and loss. The world came crashing down for all of us 18 years ago. Never to be the same again. Here we are once more, the anniversary of a tragic day. Each person alive, and each person who has come onto this planet since, were thrown together in a collective version of life and loss. It went something like this; start out our days as usual, and by the end of the day, everything is changed when 2, 977 people plus perished.

We each have our own version of life and loss, yet on that day, it changed all of us forever. Here it is 18 years later and I have lived through my own personal version of life and loss. One day, starting as usual and ending in a way that forever changed my life.

To honor you, to honor all of us who live on after tragic losses, I wish for you to take some moments today, and look around, take in the goodness, take in the beauty, take in the easy moments and the difficult moments. Forgive someone today. Let the temptations to hold yourself and others hostage to emotional pain, be tempered. Take a moment to thank someone today. Take a moment to be kind. Take many moments, so that the tragic day that we lived through 18 years ago, will continue to soften our hearts and heal our world. 
At the end of the day, we will all leave this planet some day. Make this day one that honors love.

Full Moon in Sagittarius! The Big Ask

  Hello Fellow Travelers, Time to gather round the fires of late spring and chat up what your plans are for this coming summer. And beyond. The full moon in Sagittarius occurs this coming Saturday brings so very much positivity and optimism to everything and everyone. This week leading up to the full moon may be either incredibly inspirational or incredibly annoying. That depends on how well you meet your inner optimist. You would fare well by listening to that optimist and taking action. If you take action on one small goal this week it will benefit you tenfold. If you hesitate or talk yourself out of it, or in anyway buy into your inner critic, that too will multiply tenfold. Whatever you focus on grows. You have heard that adage, well it is especially true this week. Use it to your advantage. Check your inner critic. Take a risk, take a leap. The smallest risk, as long as it has to do with your own inner faith and trust in Self, will bring an abundance of reward. Be very clear t...

Boundaries, Bamboo and Birth

Hello Fellow Travelers,  We have entered into a cycle of retrograde and this is always a good time to recharge and re-group. Giving ourselves time to replenish creates better flow, healing, clarity and awareness. We all know this, yet sometimes we forget.  The energy leading up to the Mercury Retrograde in the cosmos asks us to better understand the archetype of Mercury. Who is this god and why does he get so much air time lately? How can we use this energy to benefit our lives? In retrograde, Mercury is standing still for a short spell, it is our cue to think before we speak, step back, or stand firm like bamboo. Think twice and then three times before acting or choosing. Be discerning. Mercury loves to pick things apart and put them back together again. Rumination? Perhaps, but necessary rumination. Rumination that leads you to a deeper understanding of what is important to you now. What was important last year may not be important to you now, or ever again.  W...

Life is Messy I and II

Last week's message was about the messiness of life, the ups, downs, ins and outs. The minute you think you got it figured out, life will indeed give you something else. There is a lot going on out in the world and we are inundated with it on a moment to moment basis. It seems messier this week than last. What to do? I suggest you delve in and see where it takes you. First of all, what is messy to you?  You all have your own definition and I would encourage you to find yours and work with it. Messy to me is the opposite of harmony and peace. It is feelings as well as experiences of unrest, unease, discord, disharmony, etc. It's when I or someone I love or care about is hurt, upset or in trouble. Messy is witnessing or being on the receiving end of cruelty in words or deeds. I have experienced my share of messy situations, as has everyone alive today. I have been cleaning up messes since childhood. Not only cleaning up messes, but then striving to keep order of ...
