“Did I just see that?” Have you not had moments when the physical reality around you changed in such a way that you question what happened? Yes, dear one, there are moments when the veil parts just enough for you to realize that all is not as it seems. Some [...]

Gratitude will get you anywhere. You most often state this phrase about flattery, which appeals to the human ego, but gratitude is far more powerful than flattery. Gratitude appeals to the soul, with the word “appeal” in this case referring to a state of resonance. Bring your human thoughts and [...]

There is much going on behind the scenes that you do not see, hear, or know about. There is much being done to help humanity evolve toward more awareness of the connections you share at the deepest level. You get glimpses from time to time and call these signs [...]

Why do you alter your state of consciousness with chemicals? For you seek pleasure over pain. And does doing so at times cause you greater pain? It does. Feel the discomfort from time to time before numbing it. What if you were to become curious about it and re-label it [...]

You are trapped in patterns that began when your sense of being connected to all that is faded. This is a byproduct of the brain. The true self knows who you are: an expression of the consciousness of the One … being. This word you use so often:  “I” … [...]

Do you not wake up each morning and need a moment or two to remember where you are and even who you are? Why does this happen? For Consciousness is ever flowing, ever becoming. Consciousness is your truest you, not simply a body in a bed. Close your eyes and [...]

Stories are meant to be preserved. In olden days they were passed down by mouth. Today you write them and save them in various formats. Why the desire to preserve tales with beginnings and endings? Yes, they entertain, but it is more than that, is it not? Your life [...]

Onward and upward. What does this mean? Evolution is the name of the game. Why come to this earthly experience if you do not wish to grow? Yes, the body grows, ages, and dies, but the soul expands. This means that it finds new ways of creating beauty. Yes, beauty [...]

What happens to a tree in autumn? It prepares for the winter by preserving the flow of energy to its extremities. In so doing, the life force is cut off from the leaves. They change color, fall to the ground, and are recycled into their primal material. The tree goes [...]

Does a heart cell get angry with a brain cell for not being a heart cell? Does a cell in a lung disdain a liver cell for doing what liver cells do? They do what they are here to do, fulfilling their purpose with no judgment of the other cells, [...]

The human brain is evolving. The oldest part of the brain keeps you safe by looking for danger and judging threats. The challenge for the new human is that these characteristics of the old brain keep you focused on separation and cause you to judge. But you have existed far [...]

There are times you are misunderstood, and it leads to misalignment, angst, and division. Yet, there are times you are misunderstood, and a bit of magic unfolds. Someone misheard you or did not realize the meaning in your words, and something quite fortuitous results. How much control do you have [...]

You are often advised to follow your heart. But what if you cannot trust your heart? This means that thinking has invaded the center of your being. Sink to this center and breathe slowly. Notice any tightness that remains. Notice the frantic thoughts that accompany this tightness. Breathe, breathe, breathe [...]

Death is not the end. You hear this said and you scoff, for have you not experienced the end of the physical presence of one you love? And yes, of course it hurts deeply, for you have learned to navigate this apparently physical world with ease, and things no longer [...]

Pruning. Why do you do this to a bush or tree? You clear out that which is inhibiting growth to allow more space. You reshape things a bit. How often do you do personal pruning? There may be some lower branches and leaves which have dried up and are no [...]

When you feel cut off from your greater connection, attune to the body. Yes, the physical aspects of you can be your ally, not your enemy, when trying to connect with Spirit. The body will show you that when you are feeling disconnected, there is likely tension present. You are [...]

Do you find yourself matching the energy of those around you? If someone is calm, you are calm; if they are excited or agitated, you are the same? Then you blend and merge fields easily. This sensitivity can be a blessing and also a challenge if it knocks you off [...]

Divine love. Do you know what this is? The love between parent and child comes close, but even in this sacred relationship one places conditions. It is part of being human to have rules and impose them upon others, to expect others to behave in certain ways, and to [...]

Can you identify a time in your earlier story that continues to affect you emotionally to this day? Picture your story like a knitted scarf. That moment of wounding is like a hole in the scarf—an area of dropped stitches. You can fix this, you know. Go into an expanded [...]

How does your garden grow? Is it replete with beautiful flowers or have the weeds taken over? Perhaps there is a mixture of both: that which is the purpose of the garden and that which is simply part of the wholeness. Flowers AND weeds: both are divine aspects of nature [...]

Feel it all. That is all. You are so very loved.

Death is not the end. Of the body? Yes, of course, the body returns to the elements of which it is made, just as all energy is transformed, but we are speaking now of consciousness. You think of the term “losing consciousness” and you think that death brings a loss [...]

When relationships change, do not panic ... flow. It is the insistence that things must stay the same that causes no one to grow. Yes, you love each other, this you know. But there comes a time to recognize when new winds blow. Does this mean you take a leap [...]

Never stop seeking newness. Yes, it is true: words such as always and never are to be used sparingly, but when it comes to why you are here, beautiful soul, never stop growing. Evolution of consciousness requires new ways of doing things, new ways of seeing what is right before [...]

Who’s who in the zoo? You go to a park to enjoy the variety of animals and to wonder at how differently they behave and look. Such diversity in this wondrous world!  And do you not see that your human personalities are quite like this? Yes, you may be of [...]
