Murder, mass shootings, children in cages, historic flooding, destruction of cities and farms, death and critical illness . . . How much do we have to take? All. Of. It. We have to take all of it. I know that’s not what you wanted to hear, and I’m sorry because I know that hurts. But […]
LightWorkers and healers often struggle with our own health challenges, but we don’t like to admit it. We think that if we’re not perfectly healthy then why would anyone want to come to us for healing? Truth: Wounded Healers are the most powerful. Our pain and dis-ease make us have more empathy and deeper understanding […]
Yep, it’s Spring. Last week the Groundhog did the thing, and now it’s Spring. Sort of. There’s this thing called thermal lag that means even though we’ve crossed a calendrical point of reference, it’s still colder than bejeezuz and it’s really not done snowing yet.

Blessed Night stretches Her arms reaching ever outward To embrace the sleeping world Too often we fear her Our Dark Mother The Goddess of Winter The Hag, the Crone The Crabby But Wise One Who dispenses wisdom That tastes bitter before We learn to seek its sweetness She brings cold, and death But blessings, too […]
A big ugly spotlight has been trained on misogyny and sexual mores in the US over the past two ugly, gods-forsaken years. Maybe the one good thing to come out of all this is the number of women who have said, “Okay, enough. I’m done taking it. I have held so much peace my bladder […]
