The nurturing energies of lakes and similar water environments... I greatly enjoy silently moving upon the surface of a calm lake in a canoe or kayak at sunrise or sunset... The environment feels so peaceful and we can glimpse and sense what isn't otherwise available during the day... Like all bodies of water, lakes represent places of mystical and feminine energies, like portals to the spirit world. Many cultures of past and present speak of how they facilitate travel to other … [Read more...]

Enchanted places of our Mother Earth... There are certain areas that we discover that just feel so magickal and the presence of the Elementals is so tangible, we feel as though we've stepped through a veil and we're right there, in the realm of Nature's guardians... These are very special places and I always feel privileged to come upon such locations... ♥ With love and wonder-filled spirit, … [Read more...]

The profound energies of desert landscapes... While we all resonate differently to certain landscapes which can also change at different times in our lives, each landscape has its own specific energy that it emanates. I have yet to discover a landscape that energizes me more than the one of Sedona in Arizona. The desert environment with cacti and junipers, combined with the surrounding stone formations exudes and radiates such a profound energy. All deserts are highly purifying and … [Read more...]

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...]

Nourishment for the body, mind and spirit... Foods that grow from Nature in their natural habitat have a very special vibrancy and nutrition uncomparable with other foods. When we're fortunate enough to have access to them, they become a ceremony of love and appreciation for so many - Mother Earth and Father Sky, the Elements, the environment, our bodies... When we connect with the environment and All who helped to grow this food, that in itself nourishes our mind, body and spirit (and we … [Read more...]

The JOY of beauty and rare encounters... Walking in a trail and feeling loving appreciation for all the beauty that surrounds me, I came upon a cluster of three "blue flags", an uncommon type of gorgeous wild iris in this area. They look so regal at the edge of the woods. What a gift to encounter such rarities. We never know what beauty awaits our discovery... ♥ With love and wonder-filled spirit, … [Read more...]

Nature abounds with miracles of all forms (and some are formless!)... All we need to do is look around us, and miracles surround us! ... I'm featuring a photo I took of a beautiful monarch butterfly within its chrysalis. It's the mature stage which is why we can see the butterfly, perfectly formed, through its casing that is now clear instead of opaque green. Soon it will emerge and fly as a graceful butterfly!... ♥ With love and wonder-filled spirit, … [Read more...]

Our multi-dimensional world always beckons us to expand our sense of perception... We are definitely always surrounded by multiple beings of realms beyond what our physical senses can perceive. More and more, my physical senses are perceiving them as well and I'm not the only one experiencing this. What changes is simply our sense of perception. It's like those specially created pictures that we're meant to focus on for our vision to shift, and suddenly completely new images are clearly … [Read more...]

Dance as an expression of loving appreciation... I love to dance barefeet outdoors in Nature... every step a kiss and every movement an act, of love and gratitude to Mother Earth, the Divine and All... As I worked on my book, I suddenly felt inspired to take a break and dance in the sunshine and wind, surrounded by the prairie and trees... I dance to my favourite music on my ipod or simply dance to the rythms of Nature and Mother Earth's heart beat... As I started dancing on this … [Read more...]

Metamorphosis... common for insects, it also allows us to shed what no longer serves us to become who we truly are... Most insects undergo several types of metamorphosis as they evolve through the stages of growth to reach adulthood. I've always marvelled at every type of metamorphosis, from simple (the insect simply sheds its outgrown skins as it grows larger and larger - such as beetles) to complete (the insect completely changes forms throughout its growth stage - such as … [Read more...]
