Something Shiny
In the empire of Duality, the open door is always a Janus entity: entry & exit. The music is always swelling & falling into itself to silence. The darkness is always a placeholder for light. In the Land of Freewill, choices are made by us in firm decision & at random whim: a right turn […]

La Iglesia de la Virgen de Guadalupe
My summer project to earn pocket money is cleaning Our Lady of Guadalupe, a tiny church which happens to be next door to my house. (My house is more cheerful, being called “The Ladies with the Spitcurls.”) It has been quite a trip back in time to handle all the articles of ritual I noticed […]

It’s Late & I’ve Finished My Book
This has indeed been a strange summer. It’s been close to roasting some days & we don’t have any a/c or even a cooler tho the fella started to fix it & then drifted off. I will find someone in August if he does not return. The energies are changing but not changed. Everyone […]

Light-Riders
Above: If grass can grow through cement, love can find you! So have faith in what you do. You agreed to be where you are. You shouldered what you are doing. Keep your eyes on the future, know that it exists, hold the space for it to happen gracefully & in its own time. Be […]

Daylight Spending Time (11/15/16)
(From her to me – A Message from one of my Guides…) This time change is more unsettling. No longer routine, it has you flexed & poised for a change which isn’t yet an event. You & everyone else out there are poised for the different, the new, the moveable feast & sitting, holding a […]

Ransom Notes
I have come to believe that vanity, and not hearing, is the last sense to leave the expiring body. I settled into this physical shape as though it is the most comfortable in the world for me – and indeed, it is! Once upon a time (that beginning making the tale worth the tell) I […]

Off the Cuff & Up to Snuff
Life rolls the dice as we sit at the table, playing the game. I don’t know all the card-playing mantras – seven come eleven & that…but I believe in living forward with a healthy dose of mystery pouring around the edges of any shades I’ve inadvertently drawn. Dark never lasts. The light breaks through in […]

Home Sweet Home (Revisited)
I have lived in many places – sometimes – if not usually – in the very same town. The stretch between being in one place and the other can make it feel like I’m living in two different universes. Already in Hillsboro, I’ve moved once again after landing late March. Living at the Barbershop Motel […]
