What I am up to this fall
I’m here with a fall recap/check-in. I did not get to write in the blog for September’s Walking With Mary Journey. But I did share about it over on my Instagram account. Halfway through, or maybe towards the beginning, I had a pretty bad cold that left me needing to rest a lot in order…

Walking with Mary – September Edition
I can’t believe it was only this past February that I first did the Walking with Mary Journey with Hettienne Grobler, The French Maddona. It feels like it was many more years ago that I first did it. Nonetheless, I am so excited to do this journey and join the others who are also walking…

My Journey with Tarot
It’s been about four years since Tarot found me. Since then, I have developed an intimate relationship with this divination system. For me, Tarot is a trusted confidant and friend. It’s that type of friend that doesn’t give you the answers and tells you what to do, but instead helps you figure out what YOU…

Depth Year Update
In December of 2018 I heard about the Depth Year and thought that was a great idea to continue on what I had started doing some months prior to December, which was to reduce my consumption of spiritual tools (tarot and oracle decks, crystals, etc.) and use the many tools I have acquired throughout the…

Walking with Mary
A few weeks ago marked the end of the #30dayswithMary practice. I hesitate to even write that sentence, because I feel that my walking with Mary will never really end. Many of us who were walking together felt sadness about the conclusion of the 30 days. While I felt sad, I also felt comforted in…

Making 2019 a Depth Year
A new idea has been making the rounds on my social media communities, it is the idea of embarking on a Depth Year, a year where you dive deep into the hobbies, interests, and tools you already own/have, instead of finding new hobbies, interests, and tools to jump into. I first heard about the Depth…

Musings on Relationships with Others
Many years ago, even before starting a serious creative/spiritual path like I am on right now, I knew that the relationships we have with other people were very important. Of supreme importance, is the relationship we have with ourselves, but that is a topic for a separate post. Today, I want to talk about our…
