Opening Pandora’s Box …………….

According to Jane Roberts, the author of Seth Speaks, in the astral plane one needs only to think of something to create it. If only I had that power here …………. imagine what I could accomplish! Since I don’t, I have to add action to my imagination. That’s not horrible because I do enjoy the…

September Arrives ………..

There is a definite chill in the air here in Maine. There isn’t any ice or snow yet, so I’m not at all unhappy with the change. This summer has, once again, been a wet one ………… living in the woods, I will take rain over drought any year! I did something unheard of this…

And Yet I Persist

My grandmothers, my sister, and me MANY years ago, I think I was around 4 years old. Shoot only 68 years ago ……………… These two women gave me their genes but left me with something even more important to me: who I am. They were DOERS. I watched both of them make a home with…

Centering

I keep asking myself this question: Is life difficult because it’s difficult or am I making it difficult? I’ve always believed that we all create our own reality by what we think. I still believe this with my whole being – if I manage to think about it ………………… and not just react habitually. One…

Making a Mess

This has been a week!!!!!!!!!!!! I won’t bend your ear about politics – it’s just way too surreal for words. Like people just found out the president is missing …………. everyone must be the three blind monkeys??? I can’t take anymore, so it’s time to dye. I managed to dye 6 yards of hemp knit…

The God of the Sea

Life may get a little foggy today as Neptune stations and turns retrograde until December. Knowing what to expect is an exciting prospect. Neptune, the God of the Sea, Poseidon ……….. the Ruler of Pisces, the wishy-washy dreamer, building castles in the air, believing everything you hear, horribly intuitive dreams and waking experiences …………… these…

Self-Sufficient and Self-Efficient

Today, I’m hiding. It’s like 400 degrees in the shade up here! I’m inside, which will probably not improve my container garden, but there’s no way I’m leaving the air conditioning. We seldom, if ever, have a heat index over 100 degrees. We’re almost as far north as you can get. Not much farm work…

The Life and Times of a Serial Procrastinator

I quickly looked at the astrological aspects hitting my natal chart today, and there he is – Pluto. No way Pluto is a DWARF planet, Maybe he’s smaller than other planets, and I can only thank God that he is …………… I’m afraid if he were any larger, I would have vaporized in the last…

When I Was Called Rachael

In 1987, I graduated from university. Finally, 18 years after I started. I thought that having a degree would help me get a job that was more of a career. You know, less direction and more directing? Well, that was a laugh. I got nothing after college, except disillusioned. I had intended on going to…

That Quiet Space ……………

I don’t know if I’m the only one ………….. or if everyone has this THING …………. I have always “done” something. It was embroidery when I was little ……………. Grandma Nannie taught me to do that. She had fun teaching me to use my right hand instead of my left. Now I can’t sew with…
