Great Mother Stormcloud

It’s been a challenging week over here and I’m still in the midst of processing everything that’s happened, humbled and grateful that after a very unfortunate incident, my family is safe and sound. We’re in the midst of clearing and grounding, and while I’m sure I’ll have more to say in the coming weeks, for now, I’d like to share with you some words that came through me over the past few days as a wave of tremendous storms rolled through our valley. If you feel called, speak them aloud, proclaim them! As you do, [...read more...]

Listening for the Call of Moontime

The Prodigal Daughter | Autumn Skye   Are you listening for the call of Moontime? The deeper our relationships with our cycles grow, the more often our Moontime can bring about a profound sense of calm and ease and connection.

Into the Darkness We Go

Image by Dark Forest   Dark moon nights invite us to adventure into our own interior landscapes, Daring us to discover the unknown, unnamed, mystery within.

With complete trust that the dark will eventually give way to light, Again, and again, and again, we can let go completely . . . and hold nothing back. So into the dark we go, my [...read more...]

The Year Is Beginning To Grow Up!

“Lantern Walk” by Giuliana Serena . . . This weekend brings one of the cross quarters of the year. For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, we now find ourselves halfway between Midwinter Solstice and Spring Equinox! If you’re on the South side, you’re between Midsummer Solstice and Autumn Equinox. Either way, this turning of the year offers a gentle reminder to check in with ourselves and our environment, and take a moment to honor the unique experience of this particular transition. I love the tradition of taking our little ones for a “Lantern [...read more...]

The Value of Sharing Circles

Movie Night Sharing Circle from the October Premier of “Things We Don’t Talk About: Women’s Stories From The Red Tent” | Image Courtesy of Jenny Mauro   At the ongoing Movie Nights that I host at  Vitalize Community Studio, we conclude each evening with a sharing circle, in which everyone has the opportunity to practice the art of giving and receiving, to speak and be heard, to share honestly and to be witnessed authentically, and especially to be held in sacred space. These circles bind us together in community and make us feel more whole and alive…. [...read more...]
