The sacred can be inconspicuous…

It's easy to see a majestic, sunset-lit mountain and feel its sacredness. It's easy to see an ancient, giant tree towering in a forest and feel its sacredness. It's easy to see a magnificent whale breach with power and grace out of the ocean and feel its sacredness. It's easy to see a symphony orchestra playing with extraordinary skill and feel its sacredness. It's easy to feel the sacred when our spirits are captivated by the many grand wonders of Nature (humans included)... but … [Read more...]

Your unique path is so sacred and needed…

In this day and age, it's so easy for people to judge a person's path as either being a spiritual one or a less spiritual one.  People have preconceived ideas of what a person's life, job or work has to look like to qualify as being "spiritual" (based on perception). However, we're all spiritual beings by nature. Every part of us is a journey to experiencing more of our divinity in its infinite aspects. We can't have rainbows with just one colour - every aspect of us and experience is … [Read more...]

Instead of feeling anger, let it fuel you!…

Anger is such a strong and potent emotion. When we feel anger towards another, it's like sending daggers of energy, laser-focused and tangible. When two people have been fighting in a room, or when there's been war on a specific space of land, we immediately feel it in our own energy bodies. It doesn't feel good to us.  Imagine the power of using this anger energy in a beneficial way instead of a harmful or destructive way... I was hiking one of my favourite trails today by … [Read more...]

Rise of the love phoenix…

Our world is changing in more ways than we can perceive. Mother Earth has had enough of the abuse, the lack of reverence and respect, the domination mentality that is only self-serving, the greed without regard for how it negatively affects the greater whole...  This affects each of us on a personal level for we're intimately connected to our beautiful Gaia. There's a deep awakening emerging within souls everywhere. Many will choose to keep ignoring the call of their hearts … [Read more...]

Life lessons from ancient giants…

Many people feel wonder at the sight of a large and ancient tree, admiring his incredible size and beauty. His age sets him apart from the younger ones, for he displays so much character, serenity and strength.  However, it's easy to disregard his very humble beginnings as a small seed. None of us can possibly imagine or know everything this giant went through to reach his impressive size and age, or to gain his great wisdom. Our own lifespans are but a fraction of this mighty being's. His … [Read more...]

We’re all divinely created geniuses…

When we look at the ancient science of astrology, we clearly see that we are all different from each other and not meant to "fit in" - at all. We were in fact, divinely designed this way with purpose. We are meant to stand out in the way that only we can - with our unique skills, talents, experiences, perspectives, gifts, characteristics, personalities, zones of genius and quirks! One of my favourite quotes from Albert Einstein is the following: "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge … [Read more...]

♥ Miracle of the Day ♥

Purposeful life and death... The cycles of life are so obvious in Nature and change is a daily occurrence. It's obvious in natural environments that nothing exists without purpose... Even death has great purpose... During one of many glorious hikes at over 6,000 feet in elevation in Yosemite Nat'l Park, a constant drumming sound echoed throughout the forest... Looking way up at this dead tree, I discovered the drummer - a pileated woodpecker, perched near the top, carving a circular … [Read more...]

♥ Miracle of the Day ♥

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... It's always a matter of perspective. The call of a raven might sound beautiful to one, and sound aweful to another. The appearance of a tree frog on a window might be cute to one, and be repulsive to another. The sensation of the wind on one's skin might feel delightful to one, and uncomfortable to another. We always choose how we experience our world through our personal perspective - and it's very individual. As an example, I'm featuring the … [Read more...]

♥ Miracle of the Day ♥

Storms... I've always loved the intense energy of storms, especially thunderstorms... All storms, in their natural state, have a sacred purpose and are necessary to Mother Earth's well-being (and ours)... They play the important role of stirring up stagnant, heavy energy by clearing, purifying, recreating and energizing the landscape. In Nature the environment (including the air) feels more vibrant after a storm... Populated areas make things more complicated, however when storms … [Read more...]

♥ MIRACLE OF THE DAY ♥

Fascinatingly rare and 'weird' wonders of our world... While admiring multiple varieties of mushrooms in a particular trail, I was amazed to discover that an entire patch of the bordering forest was sheltering the most unusal flowers I have ever seen or heard of yet - at first glance they looked like mushrooms (since I saw the white ones first). Known as the "ghost plant" or "Indian pipe", it has no need for light to grow - it has no chlorophyll. It behaves like a mushroom, yet it's a … [Read more...]
