A Cosmic Event

The Moon! The Moon! Everybody is talking about it. If you do not know why everybody is talking about it, I can help. The Blue Moon is rising on May 31st. However, this Blue Moon is not your ordinary Blue Moon – not that Blue Moons are considered ordinary.

This Blue Moon, the one rising in Sagittarius on May 31st, is considered a cosmic event, one that does not pass through your life without leaving something different in you. Yes, you read that correctly – it does not pass through your life without leaving something different in you.

Now, bear in mind, Sagittarius is the astrological sign of meaning, faith and the bigger story your life is telling. The Blue Moon in this sign asks you to look honestly at where you have lost your sense of possibility and to be radically honest about where you have been settling, staying small or operating out of fear.

Sign, Sign, Everywhere a Sign

My mother loved to garden and delighted in sharing her passion and the fruits of her labor. She was in “heaven” every time she was care-taking her little corner of the world. While she walked this earth plane she taught me well and continues to teach me from heaven above.

So, for me to find flowers here and there, mostly in the oddest of places, comes as no surprise. I may be walking along a city street, or sashaying across a parking lot … when my eyes are drawn to a colorful flower (usually of plastic persuasion) right smack dab in my path. I smile as I bend down to pick it up and always chuckle “Thanks Ma!” Read More

Beauty Abounds

(I am re-posting a decade old message from my mother, Leah, which I believe bears repeating.)

Enjoy yourself, it’s later than you think. Not to be all doom and gloom, but to be realistic.

I always felt as if my life had been swept up by some forceful river and carried along at a pace, I was sometimes comfortable with, other times, not so much. Though on some level I felt I had all the time in the world, there was a secret place within me, shared with no one, where I felt I had to enjoy every single minute – now – because it was later than I thought.

Intend to Connect

A new year typically inspires new resolutions. As you turn the calendar page you find yourself resolute once again. Your mind races with the thought of achieving unlimited possibilities. For many, the beginning of a new year goes hand-in-hand with clearing the slate as boundless opportunities stretch out in front of you.

You resolve to begin anew; to pay more attention to how you fuel and care for your fabulous body, or maybe you will find a new job this year, or perhaps give up an old (less than desirable) habit. Whatever you decide, you absolutely decide to pay more attention and focus on achieving your goals.

The beauty in it is that you possess the power to put your resolutions into action. How fabulous is that? You are in complete control. To quote Henry Ford: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right.” Read More

Fear Is a Choice

Divisiveness, disagreements, name calling, finger pointing all have something in common.

Toxic and unhealthy behaviors are ramping up day by day and have become epidemic in our society, igniting and fueling the spread of fear. The greater the degree of such unhealthy behavior, the greater the yearning for commonality – connection.

As a people, we have become terribly divided. We are suffering so dearly from this division that we have resorted to creating a connection any way we can, whether we are aware of it or not.

You see, humans are a social species and we thrive on connection. Some of our best ideas, products, services, brainstorms are birthed through our connections. Read More

Receive Your Riches

Riches Abound! They arrive in many different shapes, sizes, colors and forms.

They arrive when you least expect them.

They arrive when you most need them.

They arrive when you could really use a lift.

They arrive as bonuses when your cup already runneth over.

Make a note of these riches, for they are miracles descending from the heavens. They are God’s way, our way, of reminding you that you have everything you need at your fingertips. Read More

It May Just be Time

“What goes around comes around.” A double-edged sword or a beautifully wrapped gift?

When you hear that expression, what thoughts run through your mind?

I am often reminded of how those who have gone before me have set the stage. I carry on in the likeness of my parents, grandparents, great grandparents and so on. Doesn’t it only make sense – if their blood runs through my veins, that I would have inherited their beliefs?

My past influences my future. Who I am influences who I will become.

What if who I am is not in alignment with the present – the here and now?

April Showers

Along with the flowers the showers of April bring, the month of April also brings the taxman. For many, thoughts of “the taxman cometh” also brings upon a great deal of stress. Lately, the collective stress level is rising, be it due to the tax man or our current state of affairs. And while many of us welcome good stress, eustress, that which has a positive impact on us, challenges the brain and body and helps us to do our very best; we simply become unraveled when we find ourselves overwhelmed with a case of bad stress, distress, that negative stress, which, over time can lead to ill health. We all know what that feels like, we have all experienced it at one time or another, can’t find your car keys and you’re already late, not prepared for a meeting and the boss is waiting, can’t stand your job, but you must go to work, dealing with a divorce, or illness in the family … what’s a person to do?
