What a very special Solstice this is, synchronized with the New Moon! :) Depending on which hemisphere you live in, you'll be welcoming the Winter or Summer season. Here in Alaska, the Winter Solstice officially occurs at 2:03pm and the New Moon is at 4:36pm, both on Sunday, Dec.21st (you can convert it to your own time zone here). The Winter Solstice, also traditionally known as "Yule", has been celebrated for thousands of years, especially in the northern … [Read more...]
A tribute to Nature way up north (in words and photos)…

I'm sharing the seasonal treasures of Alaska's landscapes with you today... I feel so enthralled by Nature's wonders and beauty every single day. I just never imagined how it would captivate me this much, so far up north - Mother Earth never ceases to awe-maze me... I feel so blessed to have been able to witness and experience the glory of Alaska's wild landscapes in all their seasonal changes... a place I never planned to travel to in this life... and then Michael changed all that (so … [Read more...]

When we live from the heart, we have a higher appreciation ability. This greatly enhances all our experiences of life. Even when certain circumstances might not seem favourable, we're able to receive the gem within them or that emerges from them. Life is no longer just a series of "good" or "bad" experiences, but a journey of discoveries that teach us about ourselves, others and this amazing world we live in. Having an open heart allows us to make the most of any situation, so that … [Read more...]
Divine flow and manifestation…

We all have abilities beyond our common senses of perception and they far surpass the efficiency of logic. When we allow our mind chatter to calm down and simply shift our awareness to what we "feel" guided to do (and more often than not, it does not make logical sense), we align with our divine nature and the divinity of life, and all things become possible. When our minds take a break, we witness how everything suddenly falls into place beyond our expectations and we just know that we're … [Read more...]
Rainbow-celebrating synchronicity…
July 26, 2014 by 2 Comments
Synchronicities and divinely timed signs are some of the most powerful manifestations on our paths. When we have the awareness to recognize them for what they are, they provide confirmation, guidance, encouragement and insights. They remind us that life is always fully aware of us and supporting us. We're all connected and never alone. We all have special signs that are part of our unique soul language. While they don't mean anything to others, they do mean something to us. One of my … [Read more...]

Mother Earth, our celestial HOME... Tomorrow, April 22nd is known officially as "Earth Day". It's a beautiful gesture to take the time to pause and celebrate our magnificent home in the solar system and universe for one day. I feel that if every day we took the time to appreciate our planet for all that she provides for us daily, which "Earth Day" brings into our awareness, things would be different in our world, in a good way. People who are more mindful of their roles as stewards … [Read more...]

Pure wonderment... Every moment there's something new to experience through our senses - the physical, common ones and the intuitive ones. No moment is ever exactly the same as another. Life keeps things interesting this way - change is natural! The secret to making the most of every moment is to be open with wonder - like children. To experience our inner and outer worlds as if every moment is for the first time. Instead of assuming we already know everything about something, by … [Read more...]

This one little bird makes it officially spring for me!... Migrating birds are truly amazing. Like clockwork, they show up again in spring after a long winter. For years I would hear a robin begin to sing in my city backyard exactly on March 30. It always left me in wonder, at how precisely timed it was with returning to its northern range to raise a family!... The American robin has always been my "spring bird". To hear and see this beautiful songbird has always been my official sign … [Read more...]

Moments that make "time" stop and emphasize the magick and divinity of life... On the day of my birthday, March 14th, we were driving up and up in elevation through the glorious Yosemite Nat'l Park. We planned to go on a full hike, further than we'd been before in our beloved Mariposa Grove (where so many of the giant tree beings, like Giant Sequoias, Sugar Pines and Redwoods stand majestically throughout the forest)... Red-Tailed Hawk has been a dear power animal of mine since I left my … [Read more...]

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...]
