I don’t argue things being spiritual vs scientific, because I’ve never met anyone who knows enough about either to be convincing–including myself.
By bringing a soulful consciousness to gardening sacred space can be created outdoors.
Regardless of geographical region or culture gardening is perhaps the most common and shared experience of Nature.
That we don’t remember the beginning or the ending of dreams is our unconscious reminding us that it’s all about the process.
The more I work with Nature and totemism, the more church is everywhere.
If we didn’t have shadow we’d just sit around loving the light, likely doing nothing with it.
Loving someone but not trusting them is a spiritual emergency.
Children arrive animists. They learn about life, themselves, and empathy by imagining the liveliness of everything they come into contact with.
I think that being a soul in flesh is really challenging and we should all give ourselves more credit.
When we accomplish one thing, our ego wants to bask in the glory, though our soul is ready to move on to the next.
All wisdom contracts then expands, contracts then expands. That is how consciousness evolves.
Our Soul Allies light the fire in those initial visits, but it’s up to us to keep it burning.
Though it doesn’t feel like it, crisis places us front and center of desire, which is the force of power.

If I can only write my memoir once, how do I edit it?
The body is more than the temple of the soul. It’s the grounded celebration of its rapture.
The reality is, it takes daily cultivation of a spiritual path, preferably with spiritual kin in proximity, to sustain not the feeling of elation, but the focused, mindful path of steady growth.
Engaging spirits isn’t an elitist ability or industry, it’s being active in the connection with All Things. It’s innate to us all.
It’s important to talk about fringe-of-the-fringe experiences, not just to show the humanity of intuitives, but to show humanity the commonness of intuition.
Recognizing the connection to All Things, even in creepy moments, keeps me true to my animistic perspective. Finding growth from them is my choice.

Symbols are miracles we have recorded into language.
Phrases such as “I’m beside myself,” “I was frightened to pieces,” “I feel lost,” “I feel like part of me is missing,” originated from a sense of soul loss.
