SOUL SISTERS

Today two of my soul sisters, two women who I adore with such depth, are both releasing their new nests online.  Rain has been working hard for the past several weeks designing and developing both of their new sites, and I could not be more proud of her.  I just want to weep with joy for both of them.  And the e-course they are cooking up together is going to be insanely divine.  I cannot wait to take part in it.  They are currently offering an early bird sign up for Soulsigh - A Sacred Blessingway until June 15th.  Even the name of the course makes me weak in knees.  I will be contributing a guest post for the course and Im wildly excited about it!

​SPIRIT SOUL EARTH

​Rain's new home is called Spirit Soul Earth.  How divine is that?  This girl has shown me how to love myself more deeply.  She has shown me how to receive.  She speaks to the hardest to find crevices of my soul, long forgotten places that Ive neatly tucked away in domesticated life.  She gently reminds me through her words of the layers of myself that are soaked with wild spirit.  And her voice... I can't even tell you what her voice does to me...  Go see her spirit for yourself in her new home.

​FAE SOUL

​Denise's new home is Fae Soul.  In a way it feels like her finding her home again after a long journey through the woods of Boho Girl.  This beautiful woman reminds me that I always have a soft place to land.  She gives me gentle reminders of the sweetness of everyday life, including the messes and the pain.  Her voice is like a warm cup of tea, lavender oil and your coziest blanket all wrapped up around you on a hammock during spring.  She is truly a woman I feel safe and real with, which is priceless.

I am so excited and full of joy and anticipation for what these two gentle, wild souls have to offer this world.  Just in the way that I know their hearts, I know its going to be big and pure.  ​

MANIFESTING ABUNDANCE

This month I am taking Laura Emily's Manifesting Abundance course, and so far its been a beautiful thing to mix spirit with finance.  I set up my sacred space for this month just for this, manifesting.  Ill show more of it later... These are just a few from my new moon solar eclipse night with this space.  I burned a candle along with some herbs and citrine quartz while stating all of the abundance I am manifesting at this time.  I've been writing these things down for months now it seems, but it felt really good to just sit there and verbally speak them out loud as they came to me.  ​

Seeing my friends baby come into this world this week has actually shifted my perspective in alot of ways, and has all of a sudden made me realize that having a child really is something I want in my life, sooner than later.  Ive been so scared for so long since my mom died, but I think now being surrounded by my closest friends having their own first time babies, its shifted something in me.  Seeing that even though her pregnancy and birth did not go the way she dreamt it would at all, but seeing her face when she got to hold her baby, just made all of that go away and so worth it.​  And seeing Jeff's face the day she was born made me know exactly how James would feel, and I want him to experience that.  Kind of crazy how one little baby can all of a sudden create this feeling inside of me. 

Im also about to be doing a 10 day fast with Laura Emily that starts tomorrow.  (you can still join us by today!!!)​  It's going to be an intense one though.  Im so nervous, but looking forward to the detox and release from it.  The perfect timing for the things Ive been shedding lately.  It will be the physical part to my emotional/spiritual release.  Warning:  I may be very grumpy for the next two weeks, ha ha!  I have no idea!  <---- I think that is more of a warning to my husband!

​Happy mother's day to everyone!  Including those who are not mothers to children, but who are mothers to creativity and healers of the earth.  We are all mothers in one way or another.

LIFE DEATH LIFE CYCLE

091.jpg

​I have been getting messages for a while to pay attention to my winged friends, and the messages they bring.  I knew a new bird energy was going to enter my life soon, I just didn't expect it to be through death.  Last week I dreamt about a lot of dead birds that were just killed and thrown in the back of a restaurant.  I remember coming across them and wanting to steal them so I could take them home and lovingly bury them.  Then a little girl and her mom walked up and the little girl went right up to the dead birds, picked up a blue one and asked her mom if she could take it home.  She looked at me and I knew she felt the same thing I did.  I woke up with the strangest feeling, and the images of that dream keep popping into my head. 

Then the day we went to the hospital to see Laurel Lea be born, I found this American Robin dead on the sidewalk when we left.  It was late, dark, we were hungry and in a rush to get home.  I wanted to take it but didn't have anything to pick it up with, and James was a bit hesitant, so we just moved him into the bushes behind the building with some sticks and leaves.  The whole next day I couldn't stop thinking about him.  So when we went to visit her again yesterday, I brought a towel and a box.  When we got in the car James asked me what the box was for.  He quickly realized.  When we arrived our friend was on the phone so we stood outside for a moment with him.  I went to check to see if the bird was still there and make sure he wasn't covered in ants or bugs.  He wasn't.  I left him there until we were going to leave.  When I came back over to tell James it was still there, I looked down and spotted this little baby Warbler, dead.  Right next to us.  I couldn't believe it!  What were the odds?  I rarely see dead birds.  So, I grabbed this little guy too when we left.  If anyone saw me I probably looked like a crazy lady, but I had to.  ​Even though Im sure James would of rather Id left them there, Im glad he was able to be okay with it.  Then on the way home, I saw a huge dead vulture. 

I have had alot of deep things Ive been trying to release for the past several months, and with this new moon solar eclipse, I felt the timing of these little guys showing up in my life to be just right.  A message of release, letting go of things that need to die in my life in order to bring in new life.  And all happening as one of my best friends birthed her first child, who has already given me major baby fever.  And as Im typing this Im watching my mother Swallow sit on her second batch of eggs this season, right after her babies just flew the coop.  ​

I buried the two little birdies together this morning under a big oak tree.  I buried them with a double terminated quartz I just received.  I got it for my own masculine/feminine & relationship healing, but I felt they needed it.  I also sent them off with some white sage and two rose petals, the same thing I used in the ceremony for releasing my daddy.  It just felt right and calm for them.  Then I covered them with two stones from my home.  I am preserving their wings as a reminder of their beautiful message, and to continue to honor what they brought me through my remaining work in this area.

This has been a reminder in the life death life cycle we all learn from.  Whether its actually losing someone or something that was special to us, or releasing old patterns and behaviors and building new life in place of them.  ​

For those of you wandering, the new moon reports are coming up in the next hour or so.  We decided to wait for today so we could all enjoy the solar eclipse energy.  Be on the lookout over here in the next few hours!​
