Aquarian Qualities and the Aquarian Age

Energies of Now: The Fiery Indie-Dragon Stirs (and Some Elemental Help)

It's Independence Day week in the U.S., and the Energies of Now feature the fiery electrical currents of the metaphorical fire-breathing Dragon, along with elemental support to soothe and ground. Depending on our awareness and discernment, of course. As always.... Continue Reading →

Energies of Now: Liberating our Warm, Wild-Hearted Genius

Happy Lùnastal and Full Moon lunar eclipse at the mid-Aquarius power gate. I've already written a bit about some of the Heartistry-inviting Energies (and themes) of Now, so I'll share a few things that surfaced intuitively this morning as I... Continue Reading →

February Mysteries: Candlemas Hora and Bhrìghde’s Creative Well.

"There is mystery at the heart of what holds us together, expressed in shared symbols, stories and experiences." ~ Brigidine Sisters We enter into the Mysteries of Imbolc, Candlemas, or Fèill Bhrìghde. As I've mentioned in previous musings, Imbolc-Candlemas has... Continue Reading →

What Makes a Mystic … and a Feminine Mystic?

What makes a "Feminine Mystic?" This is the question that writer Carl McColman asked Mirabai Starr, author, speaker, mystic, and translator of the mystics, in a Patheos interview. This is an excerpt from Starr's reply. "Mysticism is about a direct... Continue Reading →

Rebel Kind. Rebel Still. Rebel Vulnerable.

“If you want to be a rebel, be kind.” – Pancho Ramos Stierle This isn't what I was going to write about today, but it's what stirred up from the depths, gathered out of the ethers, so here it is.... Continue Reading →

The Interspiritual Revolution

There's an InterSpiritual exploration underway ... or an evolutionary wave, some say, that builds on the work of people like Thomas Merton, the Dalai Lama, and others who reached across the division-lines of different religious and spiritual traditions to find common threads, and more. This blog post from a fellow blogger shares a bit more about the InterSpiritual explorations underway now, and includes a powerful image to make the point.

Perdita and Our Divine Gifts

This is such a beautiful and evocative painting from Sandys. I saw it when I was browsing images in my files and, though I wasn't aware at the time its connection with Winter and, in a way, the Spirit of... Continue Reading →

QuoteWorthy: Collecting Shards

"I'm touched by the idea that when we do things that are useful and helpful, collecting these shards of spirituality, that we may be helping to bring about a healing." ~ Leonard Nimoy (1931-2015) Leonard Nimoy's signature role and character,... Continue Reading →

In Memoriam: A Wise Warrior-Poet – John Trudell

“Protect your spirit, because you are in the place where spirits get eaten.” ~ John Trudell The wise warrior-poet John Trudell died on December 8th. He was, to say the least, a great inspiration to me, and to many others... Continue Reading →

Connecting the Light-and-Frequency Bringers

I'm just revisiting Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee's book, The Return of the Feminine and the World Soul, which I wrote about in 2010 when I first received and read it (find that post here). Whenever I'm guided to revisit it, as with... Continue Reading →

“there’s no love for a poor man”

A really beautiful post about valuing what's actually valuable -- in general, and in each other. What's truly of worth and value can get a bit lost in the consumption-oriented, materialistic culture. So it was lovely to read this heartful... Continue Reading →

Energies of Now: Jinn and Tonic Full Moon

I smiled when I saw that the insightful women of Mooncircles had, at some point in the past, referred to this full moon as 'Jinn full moon'. 'Jinn full moon' is particularly fitting given the wild, chaotic surges of elements... Continue Reading →

Black Moon and the Black Madonna

New Moon. Black Moon. Black Madonna. Here's the story. When I saw the 'black moon' reference for the 18 February Aquarius New Moon at Earthsky.org, the Black Madonna arose in my awareness. She's been surfacing for me again anyway in... Continue Reading →

Breath of life

I love this post, and the music that Boštjan shares! It's really in sync with the current Energies of Now: We're in the dark moon just before the upcoming Aquarian new moon (the 2nd in the sign). The twin-set of... Continue Reading →

The Return of the Dark/Light Mother – from Laura Bruno

I intended to reblog Laura Bruno's important and insightful (and thus highly recommended) review-post about the late Monica Sjöö's book, The Return of the Dark/Light Mother, but stationing Mercury apparently had something else in mind. So we go with the... Continue Reading →

Live With Your Genius. Be “Truly Wyyrrdd’

Free your Wyrd. Or your Weird. Or your Freak Flag. Let your genius loose. Open the attic door and let the madwoman stomp down the stairs and make toast of the not-you. Invite out your you-iest you. You know what... Continue Reading →

Energies of Now: Spaced Out and Cracklin’ with Insight

“I relate to the firing synapses willy nilly ... I am wildly alert, yet kinda stunned or something …” quipped one Aqua'd wayfarer just this morning. Sounds familiar. My mind has been going at warp-speed, as my Aquarius Sun,  Saturn,... Continue Reading →

The Greatest Need of Our Time

"You do not need to know precisely what is happening, or exactly where it is all going. What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith and... Continue Reading →

MLK on Creative Maladjustment and Transformed Nonconformists

Yesterday was the birth-anniversary for the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (and the day before my beautiful Capricorn Sun niece+God-daughter's birthday!). I wrote this post (see link below) awhile ago, but the wisdom is fresh no matter what the... Continue Reading →

Free Your Heart (and Mind). Be as You Are.

I've been quite introspective over the last month or so, even more than usual (see my previous post, Hail to the Hermit). Those who aren't introvert-contemplative types (most people, seemingly), can't grok the need for periods of deep introspection, quiet,... Continue Reading →
