The wisdom for these times lives in the earth

Happy Summer (to my friends in the northern hemisphere . . . and winter to those of you in the southern hemisphere). I’ve been enjoying some extra garden time, nibbling on berries while watching the birds feast along with me, and considering how summer extends such a...
When Life Changes Direction

When Life Changes Direction

As we move toward the Sagittarius full moon on Sunday, I’ve found myself reflecting on the intentions I set six months ago, during the Sagittarius new moon in December. They were expansive, heart-led, and deeply meaningful to me. And as I look back now, I’ve...

Filter the Noise

Recently, Chris, the girls, and I got up to the woods for a few days, and goodness, it felt so good to spend immersive time in the forest. We were the first ones up for the season, and the lake was quiet. Imagine being in a space so still that all you hear is nature...

Too much to hold alone

Too much to hold alone

Eclipse Wisdom: From Scattered Starts to Solid Ground

This eclipse window has me reflecting on cycles and patterns in a much deeper way than I expected. In particular, my attention was drawn back to the August 2017 solar eclipse. Chris and I had so much fun viewing and experiencing this eclipse at Cave-in-Rock in...
