Today I saw a butterfly her blue speckled wings glistened in the sunlight the magic of her metamorphosis danced around in the winds * She flew over the sagebrush and landed on red sandy soil resting awhile opening and closing her wings a silent rhythmic drumbeat sending wave after wave of the knowledge she holds about being and becoming her whole beautiful self despite those who would say it’s an impossible dream * I sat beside Butterfly until she lifted into the air to fly as if she’d always had wings * Today I am following the path of the butterfly together we can join the dance of the…

Great Horned Owl Medicine: Trusting Your Inner Knowing We’re well-trained to give our power away to external authorities ~ other people, social media, belief systems ~ as if they’re all-knowing sources of indisputable truths. Great Horned Owl shows us the way to listen to and follow our inner authority. Great Horned Owls soar through the air on silent wings. Though many birds find resting places at sunset, Owls are nocturnal. They thrive in their natural elements of darkness and night. Their feathering is set to soak in vibrations and sound. Their heads turn almost full circle, gathering s…

I was getting to know a river whose path wandered through the willows and cottonwoods near our house. We’d found a place to land, in the wake of my father’s death, thirteen miles down a bumpy dirt road. According to contemporary maps, we were living along the San Juan River. Yet this river had many names long before words written with the english alphabet. I’d been talking to the river to find out what she likes to be called. Her name had something to do with dancing waters and singing rocks. She was a river of healing waters, that was clear. Walking barefoot in the gentle currents and c…

Lioness is calling to the heart of humanity because she’s not able to raise her cubs the well-being of new generations is in question in this inside-out upside-down backwards spinning world   Lioness is calling to the heart of humanity not blaming and shaming not down-putting and dehumanizing not with warring words because that would only mimic and perpetuate the out-of-balance ways in the world   Lioness is calling to the heart of humanity because she knows in our hearts in our genuine human nature in our ancestry and sacred designs we hold the knowings of how to live in balance with ours…

When the glowing orange sun rose up over the horizon, a hint of magic filled the air. A chattering flock of ravens surfed wildly on the winds. Blue-black feathers shimmered as ravens landed on tree branches, creating avalanches of snow. With wide-open wings, they soared to the ground to hold council in the frozen field beside my house. I wondered what the ravens were up to besides calling me out to play. Bundled up head to toe in warm woolies, I headed outside. The vibrant green forest was frosted with sparkling white snow and embraced by the brilliant blue sky. My spirited dog, Jasmine, rompe…

‘Even if one person fell in love with life again, a river of change would begin to flow. Even if just one person chose to live in heart-centered ways, a powerful momentum would be set in motion for creating a heart-centered world. ~ from Spirit of Chocolate: A Woman’s Journey to the Rainforest in Search of Her Dreams   I love the Solstice season, the wisdoms and unknowns living inside the dance of changing cycles. Rich possibilities thrive in transitional spaces between what exists, what’s Dying away, and who and what is becoming. Whoever you are ~ sea urchin, pine tree, polar bear, lun…

When I heard Jasmine’s urgent barking, I headed back out to the mesas. I could sense from the trail of her voice that she was on the move. Was she chasing coyotes again? Jasmine and Coyotes had many close-up encounters through our years living on the mesas ~ spectacular, breath-taking, can’t-believe-this-is-happening-right-before-my-eyes encounters. So when I saw Jasmine bounding toward me, leading the way with a pack of wild dogs behind her, it took me a breath or two to translate what was happening. I felt awed by the beauty while my mind patched together the story. Jasmine was running f…

In my first Soul Retrieval ceremony, about twenty-five years ago, I was taken deep in the ocean waters to swim with a pod of dolphins. In this wild and free adventure, we explored vast underwater realms. We soared above the waves, soaking in the warmth of the sun and breathing fresh salty air. Somewhere along the way, a school of golden fish was poured into my heart. In the wonder of this healing ceremony, I was immersed in a world filled with pure loving connections. I was shown how it feels to receive a generous giving, untangled from the lies about not being worthy enough. A whole collectio…
