• How Will You Illuminate the World?

    As we settle into autumn’s first full moon phase, here’s a great quote to ponder – “You have to find what sparks a light in you, so that you – in your own way – can illuminate the world.” Take a moment to connect with your inner spark. How does it get ignited? What is happening within you and around you when your feel on fire? What is the “it” that lights you up every time you come in contact with it – or even think about it? And how does “this” reflect the uniqueness in you? How does it want to be expressed creatively? These are great questions to take into your journal under the light of a full autumn moon. And if you’d like…

  • Full Moon Rising – The Gift in Your Life Story

    Tonight’s full moon, referred to as a “pink moon” – symbolizes a blossoming of potential. Because it’s the first full moon in this new season, it brings light to the unique gifts in our life stories.    One of the most powerful films I’ve ever seen is Freedom Writers. It continues to be one of my favorites.   It shows the power of journal writing – and telling one’s story through a voice that is unique to the storyteller. And through the pages of sharing this story, a larger sense of purpose begins to unveil.   For a taste of what the film is about, visit this link and watch the movie trailer: Freedom Writers   So much could change in our lives, and in…

  • The Gift of the Winter Solstice

    Welcome to the Winter Solstice! Today marks the longest night of the year as nature gives us an extended period of darkness. Mother Nature knows that a certain amount of darkness is always needed in order to see – and to truly appreciate – the “light” of possibility. On this day of the Winter Solstice, take some time to connect with your inner light – that authentic voice inside of you who has the potential to show up in a big way. How bright is your inner light? Let’s give her a name. Take a moment and close your eyes – and think about the potential of your inner light when she is shining brightly. What name captures the energy of this essence? Don’t over…

  • What Does This Blue Moon Have in Store for You?

    We’re in for a real treat this week as we move into a full moon phase in the astrological sign of Aquarius. It will bring light to our unique path, allowing us to see how our own individuality contributes to the higher good of the collective. It’s a perfect time to contemplate the impact of your life purpose legacy. And because this will be the second full moon this month, it’s technically a “blue moon” which brings an energy of celebration. Blue moons are really special. They don’t happen every year. It’s why people say “once in a blue moon.” It’s a phrase that’s used to describe the rarity of an event or to refer to something that is considered “unusual” or“unique.”  And from a spiritual perspective, this moon phase…

  • Are You Showing Up for the Wonders in Your Life?

    I’ve just returned from a magical week in Iceland – where I experienced one of the seven natural wonders of the world. The Northern Lights have been on my “bucket list” for a few years – and it took my 12-year-old daughter’s growing interest in them for us to finally take action by scheduling a winter vacation on this glorious Nordic island located within the Arctic Circle. And after witnessing them up close and personal, I can say this – the aurora borealis is truly spectacular! Not knowing what to expect, I was both pleasantly surprised and truly captivated by this extraordinary sight. Mother Nature sure knows how to put on a good show! And with just the right conditions (a cold, clear, and frosty winter night…
