HAVE YOU FOUND THE JEWEL IN YOUR SHAME?
A month ago on the longest night of the year, I took a walk as dusk began to enfold the woods. The message came:

There is a JEWEL IN YOUR SHAME.

WAIT. PAUSE. BREATHE.

I know you don't want to read about shame. I am commanded to write it, by the Goddess who adores you and calls you to her!

Shame doesn't want me to write this article, which I started a month ago!

Hoodathunkit?!

One year ago I was beginning the grueling process of getting my old farmhouse ready to put on the market. 

I was beginning the hard emotional work of letting go of 24 years of my home, my family, my late husband, my successes, and some broken dreams and failures along the way. 

I didn't know what what coming... whether Charlie and I would stay together, whether I would have the money to live, a home somewhere, or a room in someone's attic. 

(I can get melodramatic when facing big change!)

Now a year later, I can look back on a magical, blessed year!

Lilith: Triple Goddess Part 2

In Part one of  Lilith: Triple Goddess, I introduced the three faces of Lilith as a Triple Goddess.

When one aspect of the Triple Goddess is active, the other two are also present. At first I did not think that Lilith shows up as Maiden/Mother/Crone. My listening throughout the day reveals that she is Maiden/Mother/Crone as the Dark Goddess.

Lilith: Triple Goddess Part 1

The solar eclipse of August 21, 2017, activated Lilith energy in two powerful ways: The Demonized Goddess and the original Feminine energy of manifestation.

After the Eclipse I meditated deeply on Lilith and listened to what she had to teach me.

Lilith is a triple goddess. So many aspects of the Divine Feminine are triple goddesses. Something about Three is a magic number of dynamic creative power within wholeness that shows up in many religious systems.
