Last year was a powerful one for many of us. The Year of the Snake held the sacred container that has had the potential to prepare us for the Year of the Fire Horse. I like to say that things “have the potential” because although they may be universally accepted “truths” of what something means, unless you choose to follow that path and collaborate with those energies, you have the

Oh, it’s cold! The arctic winds have been blowing and this past week here has been brutally cold. I’m not a fan of the winter months or the cold but I’ve been trying very hard to embrace the frigid temperatures and I’m happy to say, it seems like it’s working…at least the sting is softer.
Have you ever found your Self standing ….
Read MoreAs 2025 came to a close, I felt ready for the New Year. Soon it would be the Year of the Horse and what could be better than that after such shedding during the Year of the Snake? If you know me at all, you know how much I ….
Read MoreOne of the things that never ceases to astound me is the support one can receive via messages from either oracle decks, bibliomancy, dreams, or ‘voices’ in your head. These messages can be powerful when you actively ask for answers or insight, but they can be extremely powerful and potent when you don’t realize your spirit is asking and somehow….a message reaches you.
I want to share a little…
Read MorePart 4: A Naming Poem (composed sometime in 2009)
While cleaning out a closet on the same day I found words, I found a box full of old journals and my old words. It was interesting yet difficult to read some of them. I had journaled during the early days of my separation, throughout my first trip to Egypt in 2016, my solo trip to NYC in 2015. There were notes from
So much had changed on the heels of traveling to Egypt and there was so much sifting through the sand. I didn’t know I was going to have to sift through, be buried by, and dig my way out of it all again. But over thousands of years, the Sphinx had
Read MoreSince 2016 I’ve had the opportunity to stand between the paws of the Sphinx at least 8 times, contemplate what he is, and look at the hieroglyphic writing on the Dream Stela……Each time I’ve stood with the Sphinx to watch the sunrise together, I’ve been overcome with emotions that took Time to process. Sometimes I received some string of words with layers of meaning to unravel. The last time I stood between his great paws, he simply said to me…..
Read MoreOne of the most prominent gods of Ancient Egypt is Osiris. He's always been there, hanging out with Isis and Nephthys, there as the pharaoh who passed away and became one with him, hidden within the tree in his sarcophagus, or being raised as the Djed Pillar in the temples but he's never really interacted with me on a personal level in the same way that Hathor or Isis have. Until my last trip to Egypt in February!
In this blog, I’m going to share with you a little about what's known as the “Osirian Mysteries”. They are vast and multi-layered and
Fred and me….
Fred was a big part of our family while the girls were growing up and in 4-H. She was a bit of a princess and always the “Boss Mare” with the other horses but she was a great all-around horse. Not only was she wonderful under saddle and took our daughter through 10 years of 4-H and open shows, we had also had her broke to drive soon after we got her and after her initial purchase and realizing that she was going to be a “keeper”, that’s where she and I bonded.
My college-friend from Kentucky introduced me to….
Read MoreIt’s been three months now since I had to put my horse, Fred, down and although the words to write about her sometimes flit through my head, it’s been difficult to sit and write about her because then I have to sit in the loss. But journaling and reliving happy times together is good for grieving hearts and so here I sit on the first Sunday in September to remember … not just a good horse, but a good friend. Fred.
Read MoreI was planning to move back home to my farm this spring but I soon realized that wasn't going to work out and so I was gifted with a Plan B. To fully understand the gift that it is, I have to share with you a few things about me. About 6 or 7 years ago, I came across a new way to create the life you desired by choosing words that described how you want to feel. It’s a little like the way you might choose a word for the year but in a way that seems to go a little deeper by focusing on something more long-term.
So I thought about…..
Read MoreWhen you look at the art on the walls of Ancient Egyptian tombs, you can see a story unfold. The stories are about life and its joys, the everyday experiences one also expects to experience in the afterlife, and some really intricate depictions of deeper Ancient Egyptian mysteries and beliefs. One such drawing is a compelling image of a hippopotamus giving birth while a crocodile waits patiently behind her with its mouth open to eat it!
I was recently reminded of this image on the first day of Spring when I helped one…..
Read MoreWhen you just can’t make something up and have it be more incredible than it actually was, that’s when you call it magic. I’m going to share a magical encounter I had in the area of Egypt known as Sakkara while I was there with our tour group in September, 2022. This is a special site we often visit with our groups because here you can see many pieces of Egypt’s ancient history. The first pyramid ever built is here, which is the Step Pyramid of Pharaoh Djoser of the 3rd Dynasty. It’s a structure that has been standing in the shadow of Cairo for over 4,700 years. In front of this pyramid is the Heb Sed Court where the pharaohs would….
Read MoreAs someone who embraces all that Life has to offer, there’s an unspoken oath I seem to have taken with Death.
I hadn’t planned to take a personal quest during my last trip to Egypt but when I found out that someone I admired greatly had been sick and unable to return to Egypt, I wanted to do what I could across the miles to lift his spirits. On the day I was out capturing one of the places he wanted to visit to send him images and video, I felt his spirit strongly. Three days later while sailing on the Nile I received a call from a friend that he had passed away.

Read MoreWhile attending a retreat one year, I attended a presentation in which the speaker said something quite profound about traveling. She said, “It’s not a quest unless you come home.” Having recently returned from a trip to Egypt, I was feeling the scope of these words as I went through the motions of getting back into my life as if nothing had changed…..because it felt like everything had changed.
Before I left for the trip, I had to let go and surrender to all the things I wouldn’t be able to be a part of here in my life while I was gone. I had to go through a tiny sort of death which was interesting because the woman I was traveling with was having the same kinds of thoughts as she prepared for the trip. Perhaps that’s another story for another day but when we….
Read MoreI was packing for Egypt and trying to tie up all the loose ends when I had a realization. It might have been partially based on some of my recent life experiences and current status in life, but nonetheless, it was profound and changed the way I think about traveling.
Remember in Alice in Wonderland when Alice asks, "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" Well, my question sort of came out with the ….
Read More“Soon…”
The Universe packed a punch that left me spinning, numb, and sinking into the honoring of everything I was feeling because there was nothing left to do. My granddaughter was due to be born “soon” and I was busy trying to get all my work done before then so I could keep my calendar open to help my daughter. I had plans to go to the State Fair with one of my best friends, who I hadn’t seen much all summer due to her family and travel schedule. We talked a lot, though, and shared….
Read MoreI’ve written about my experiences with synchronicity and magic before and at the risk of sounding like I’m on repeat, I’d love to share a little more of the magic that happened recently with the recording of the meditation offered in Patreon….because #magichappens
The Music
Each month in the offerings of Patreon there is a meditation to connect you with the neteru we’re focusing on that month. I map out their notes, sit with them and play the music on my harp. The recording is then
Read MoreThere's something profound that happens in the midst of the simple things because there's that split second when you remember. You remember your joy, you remember your essence, you remember your purpose and your destiny and everything makes sense. Sometimes these moments last for only that split second and sometimes they linger like the scent of smoke rising from a fire surrounded by stones under a night sky. The past few weeks, I’ve really been exploring this and feeling into it and I’ve got some resources for you to use to find your joy, if you’ve lost it somewhere along the way.
2020 was a tough old bird, I’ll give her that! Not only did I experience
Read MoreThe magic of synchronicity is in the unexpected nature of it. It comes when you least expect it, sometimes right when you need it the most, and always as a way to support or lead you in a particular direction.
In this blog, I'll share with you some blessings I've experienced that have come in the form of thoughts (that often sound like my own but feel different), observation, and things placed in my awareness that gave me a sense of confidence in those thoughts that happened at the beginning. I'll also share with you some tips on how to begin to notice these synchronicities in your own life as well as how to know the difference between “coincidences” and divine guidance/synchronicities that have meaning.
