May Day is Mary Day

2017-05-02T22:07:48+00:00

May Day! May Day! How did that come to be a call of distress? Most recently in the early 1900s May 1 has been a day of protests, supporting worker’s rights and unions. That’s curious, because prior to that May Day was Mary Day, in honor of the Blessed Mother. And  perhaps to secretly to honor the other Mary, the Magdalene, as the leader and “Apostle to the Apostles” she was known to be. This holiday was pasted on top of the Celtic celebration of the blooming of Spring called Beltane. (Think maypoles and maidens.) What is blossoming in you?

Did Last Week Knock You Off The Fence? I'm checking in with you... wondering if you have been having a difficult time lately. Lots of us were.  It could be impacting your ability to take care of yourself. With so much uncertainty in the world right now, maybe you notice having trouble making decisions about moving forward in your life--in general. And your decision about Entering the Healing Temple — A Day of Sanctuary for Women. I'm guessing that you may be sorting out family responsibilities, personal obligations or figuring out your finances. Maybe you’ve been up been “on the

Magdalene Message: Find Rumi’s Field

2017-04-05T20:30:17+00:00

ReBalancing After Upset Yesterday morning I was in grief. Too shocked to weep. Shadow unleashed, Trauma everywhere I looked. I wasn't ready to “seek the light” yet know that this is the path ahead I must walk. So I commiserated with allies. Sought comfort in like-minded souls. Angry, hurt, scared. And while all paths are sacred, I knew that staying there was stewing for me. Though it may not be for you. No Spiritual Bypass, just your own timing, your own soul. Because that is what this is: Soul Time. As I wrote in the Magdalene Path, Temple Time Returns.

Healing Temple Retreat Comes to the Columbia River Gorge

2017-04-05T20:42:01+00:00

Do you need a real day off? …to step off the wheel, and find deep peace within yourself, that can be accessed privately, within the presence of other women? And receive a variety of healing treatments and be guided through a process of deep replenishment? How would you feel, to have a lot of silence, as well as space where you can talk about the deep and the real, without being chatty? What would it be, to enter a space where it's not about being a parent, a spouse, a public figure, an employer/employee... but about being a woman, and what it is

Ever Feel Like You’re Lost in The Forest?

2016-09-27T09:54:36+00:00

Deeper Questions for Resolving Transitions   I feel like there’s something more or different that I’m supposed to be doing, but I don’t know what it is….what’s my next step? Ever feel that way? I know I have, and even recently. I’ve written previously about life changes since moving: leaving community after 20+ years, moving from one bio-region to another. From having a “normal” life (in a house) to living 24/7 in a boutique hotel that we own. (Don’t get me wrong, it’sa cool hotel.) It’s been a big transition. Duh. Huge tectonic rumblings have been occurring in my body/soul/psyche

2016-01-21T10:47:18+00:00

Clarity, Simplicity, Lusciousness and Ease We’re past halfway in this first month of this shiny New Year. How were your holidays? Have you recovered or is it a blur already? If you're like me, its a slow emergence into 2016 and I have been really feeling my way into what this New Year wants to be. I'm creating from Feminine Centered intuitive lusciousness from the get-go. No more man-styled drive projection and goals. (Nothing wrong with that if it's working for you, I'm trying another way.)

A Honest Moment

2014-09-24T06:59:12+00:00

A few months ago I gathered a circle of women in my local area who were hungry for more meaning, connection, creativity and sacred space at SisterSoul Salon. (I offered this only to those of you on my local list, so if you didn't see this, that's why.) it was a big hit--lI even added a second gathering to accommodate everyone.The  ladies loved it, It was clear that they wanted more: they told me so!  But I wasn't ready to hear it. (I had a new juicy program to offer and I was excited about it.) I was so intent

Taking the Medicine Again

2014-07-01T08:36:32+00:00

Here we are, Independence Day--beyond hot dogs, flags and fireworks, what is it really? It’s that day in the US when we celebrate our separation from an archaic, monarchic system and started to create something new, different, egalitarian and self-governed. A more expansive way to lead a nation. Regardless of our opinion of it now, we can step back and see what a cool and courageous experiment this really was. How do we take this leading edge impulse for freedom and creative leadership into our lives now? Maybe because it’s summer, I’m noticing many are feeling this call for freedom,

Great Loss? Or Gain?

2014-06-20T11:53:39+00:00

As we sit at the Summer Solstice I'm feeling blessed, after co-leading a delicious ritual workshop, so I wanted to share some Soul food from The Magdalene Path that might be relevant for you right now. I've got a super special announcement--look for that in a day or two. Until then, here's an excerpt from Chapter 3, The Path of The Divine Feminine, and a Practice to take it into your life. Great Loss Mary Magdalene says, "With the loss of the Divine Feminine, the Divine Masculine lost his partner/consort. He lost his balance and his Self in the Divine deism
