Wait For It…

Wait For It…

Spirit tends to teach us lessons through symbolism. For example: this morning I had a glass full of chai on the kitchen counter. I grabbed it and it fell about an inch onto the granite and shattered. Milk, chai, ice and glass were all over the counter and floor,...
Validation

Validation

Why is it that some days I need so much validation? Am I really seeing all of these images? Is this all crazy? Am I crazy? So many times I have sought validation. And each time, it has come to me! My sister in law Sharon was in town and she had a tight knot between...
Symbolism

Symbolism

Some days everything I look at is really just that… everything I am looking at. But there are some days that the things that I look at are actually telling me a story about something else. With energy and spiritual work, I find that symbolism and metaphors are often...
You’ve Got Mail!

You’ve Got Mail!

How do you know when you are getting an energetic or spiritual message, or what I like to call a “hit?” Sometimes I get a tingly feeling in my heart (4th) chakra or my solar plexus (3rd) chakra. I have learned to trust that “ping.” If at all...
Aha Moments

Sylvia

Sylvia

How lucky I was to get to know and love Sylvia!   I was in my late 20’s when we met. We taught together in an elementary school and became family quickly in spite of, or maybe because of, our 23 year age difference.  I was in my late 20’s and Sylvia her...
Beth and the Crow

Beth and the Crow

One day at work I was driving from one building to another across town. Out of nowhere I started feeling melancholy, gloomy and almost despondent. I started to weep. I had no idea what had come over me. Not accustomed to energy work, I asked myself what in the world?...
Antiques and Energy

Antiques and Energy

I remember the first time that an antique shared its energy with me, or maybe it was just the first time that I actually noticed. I was in an antique furniture store and saw an attractive kitchen hutch made out of quarter sawn oak. It was probably built between 1905...
Writing a Blog

Writing a Blog

One morning while meditating I heard that I was going to be writing a “blog.”  What’s a blog? Isn’t that something that young people do on the internet?  I have never even seen a blog. From the dark corners of my mind I heard Bill Cosby’s...
