In the wake of the horrific AME Massacre, yet another instance of domestic terrorism in the form of a hate crime, I urge you to stop giving energy to the hate-filled terrorist who shot up the church. Forget his name. Don’t read the stories about what a soft-spoken kid he was. Don’t post his picture,…

When Things Go Wrong They Can Still Be A Force For Good
I still need to write my wrap up from Pantheacon. This is more important right now. I first heard about this my my roommate at P-con, a woman who was deeply affected by the events in question. There were more posts than the ones I have included below, but these are the three that, for…

Web of Information
It’s the late-night blogs, written when my household is asleep, that can give you insight into my motivations, my values, and how my mind works. They’re not generally the well thought out entries, the ones that get researched and planned. No, these posts are off the cuff, welling up from the darkness, still oozing the…

When disaster strikes
From Spirit’s point of view, disaster is an opportunity for growth. I know this is very hard to bear in mind when faced with imagery of blood and terror, or when people you know leave this world suddenly. Spirit is not limited by what we perceive as limitations, Spirit does not see what we call…

What’s Going On?
Interesting energy going on right now. People are rigid, being cranky, edgy, or stubborn. Everyone wants change. Communication isn’t working particularly well. Things feel… stuck. Oh look, there’s a Mercury Retrograde about to start, we’re in a New Moon, and there’s solar storms hitting our atmosphere! I write about Mercury Retrograde all the time (no,…
On World Change
So the United States government has gotten rid of one of the biggest booygeymen we’ve had for the past ten years. This is a big shift significator, because it means the may have to relate to the general population differently. Perhaps even talking to us like adults, something that has not honestly happened in quite…
