“There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we’ve ever known.”
Recently in meditation, I was shown this idea… Sometimes we want to hold on to beliefs so tightly, wrapping them around us like a second skin. We believe, or rather know (because we’re not “knowing” anything else at the moment), that we cannot live without this layer. When in fact,…
I did a reading for a friend recently. He has always been interested in death and the afterlife, working in the medical field, and even a hospital morgue when he was younger. He has studied near death experiences (also known as NDE’s), and has tried to learn everything he can…
I remember the first time I was exposed to racism. I was 6 years old in 1976 (almost 7), and just beginning 2nd grade. There was a girl my age named Mai-Linh. Her Vietnamese family sought refuge in the US, having fled their war-torn country a few years before when…
Recent headlines about the U.S. President making horrifying remarks about a dead senator burning in hell really upset me. Not only is speaking of a colleague in such a negative manner, extending the pain of grief for the deceased’s loved ones, absolutely abominable, it’s also propagating the religious narrative that…
The next step in my learning is to teach. I will be teaching Tarot classes in the new year, and I’m going to (try to) share my psychic journey more regularly here in my blogs. I have a couple of teachers in my family, and I have years experience in…
As I stand at the precipice of age 50, I count my blessings and throw out gratitude to the universe that I am able to celebrate this day with my living mother (and her mother). There are so many “motherless children” alive today. All of my cousins (both sides) have…
It’s no surprise that many, if not most, psychics (like most in the creative arts) lean a bit more liberal than conservative. I’m going so far as to say we tend to lean more apolitical unless we see human and social rights blatantly violated. I’ve had to take a step…
With the recent deaths of celebrities by their own hand, along with personal mediumship readings connecting with those who have done the same, I felt compelled to distribute what has been shared with me on the “spiritual consequences” of suicide.
I found out a friend passed a couple of days ago. We weren’t very close, but we bonded over mediumship, specifically a medium we both followed. After seeing a comment of mine, she came to me for her very first psychic/Tarot reading. I found out that she was going through…
Meditating on the idea of peace, and I was reminded that it comes when everyone remembers their connection to each other. It is recognizing “The Source”, or God, in each living thing (including other species, plants, the ocean, the earth…). Mother Teresa understood it.
Embrace your ignorance! (But please don’t do it by putting yourself or others in harm’s way.) To learn, to grow, you have to KNOW there is an ignorance within that can only be filled through knowledge. You needn’t only bury your face in books to gain knowledge. Learning is brought…
I was ranting about something a career politician from an oil baron family said in response to Pope Francis’ encyclical on the climate and the need for nations to take action to care for the planet and all living upon it. The oil baron said that climate change, while he…
“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” This quote from philosopher and priest, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, has always rung true for me. I’ve never felt wholly invested in my body (which has shown at different times throughout my life), and I…
I’ve always known the Universe holds a wealth of knowledge if we only know how to access it, but I love the idea that she’s a gossip who is willing to tell you everything…. if you will only ask the right questions and learn to listen for the answers.
This meme is based off the Carlos Slim quote: “It’s important to give a better country to your children, but it is more important to give better children to your country.” I’m a big proponent of “thought in conception”. We would hate to think the gods of our faiths created us…
As I was driving on the freeway this morning, I noticed a sports car coming up fast in my rear-view mirror. I normally drive in the fast lane and kept watch, figuring I would have to move to the right to get out of his/her way. Then we came up on…
I received an intuitive, energy-moving massage a couple of weeks ago (my first full body massage EVER). When she ask what energy work I was doing for myself, I said, “I’m trying to clear, activate and open my lower chakras; specifically the sacral and solar plexuses. They have been my problem…
