Storytelling as a healing art, and how to listen.

Moving From Hard Into Mastery
I have had several opportunities as of late to work with people who have natural or organic ways of doing something, whether that is running energy, channeling, or intuitive readings; people who have decided to seek out formal training in something they are already doing. I always support this. Having the book learning, knowing the…

How Clearing Bowls Came to Be
In 2008 or 9, I was having trouble with carrying around energy I’d picked up from clients. As an empath, it is something I have to be very conscious of. I used to process things for others, but that’s not fair to them – they need to have their experience – and it’s certainly not…
Totem Visitation: Peacock
I was driving home from a client on Tuesday and standing on the double yellow line, like he was waiting for me, was a glorious peacock. I told him to get out of the road, and he crossed (left to right) behind me. I drive that route several times a week, and I have never…
On Mondays
I think I have figured out why people don’t get along with Mondays… It’s a matter (isn’t it always?) of fighting the energy. If you look at the naming of days of the week as those days been dedicated to a planet or deity, or being infused with that energy, each day of the week…
From the August Newsletter
For those of you who follow my blog*, you may remember that I promised you some tools for dealing with the massive retrograde energy. I figured, since we weer so close to the end of the month, I would just send it to you in the newsletter. So… here we are. Retrograde energy is about…
All the Introspection Ever
I posted the other day about Venus Retrograde and how that’s affecting us. It’s just one piece of the puzzle though. * Saturn has been retrograde since mid-March, and will station direct at the beginning of August. * Pluto has been retrograde since mid-April. * Neptune and Chiron both went retrograde last month. * Uranus…
Venus Retrograde
I talk about Mercury Retrograde all the time. To be fair, it’s a frequent occurrence, and it gets a lot of negative press. Other planets retrograde, too, though. We have been in the pre-shadow of Venus Retrograde for a few weeks. As we get closer to the event, its influence gets stronger (it starts Saturday)….
Meditation for the New Moon
I realize it’s a little late at night, but I got busy today and wasn’t back in the office until after 6pm. In any event, here’s a guided meditation for this month’s New Moon in Cancer. As I said in the notes on You Tube, this one is actually suitable for doing as you drift…
Antsy, Crackly, and Raw
No, they’re not new smurfs. I’ve been hearing a lot of reports from people that they’re raw, overextended, or just plain done. I’ve also been hearing from my students, who are actively and consciously working on their issues, about the pointed opportunities to practice the skills and tools they’re developing. I suspect that everyone is…
Happy Monday!
Did you enjoy your holiday weekend (if you’re in the US)? Mondays don’t mean the same thing to me as they do to most people. I love what I do, I tend to work on the weekends, and my life feels about the same no matter what day of the week it is. Mind you,…
