I get a number of questions from clients and students asking me “Is it something Karmic that I brought with me into this life?” Most of the time it’s not. When we complete an embodied life and return to the Akashics we, almost immediately, go into seclusion with our teacher and completely review the life…
Anne Shrago has written a beautiful article that sums up a lot of what I’ve been discussing about Horse over the past few weeks. While she is talking about it from the perspective of supporting women in a difficult world, I believe these issues are fairly universal and that the wisdom works for our menfolk…
In this year of the Horse we may feel encouraged or challenged to experience the difference between meaning and judgement. This magnificent brain of ours is constantly sifting and sorting through all the information our senses bring to us and making meaning out of them. Plus there are all the emotions as well as all…
For most of us, when we think about horse we think about beauty and freedom and joy. It’s about the movement. They are gorgeous and yet strong and so fast, by our standards. They wouldn’t beat a cheetah in a race, but that’s not the point. 🙂 If we think about them at rest, we…

One of the more recent instances of this is the White Buffalo calf which is a blessing from Spirit and a harbinger of the coming…
Rhiannon is a goddess from Welsh mythology that has come to represent the relationship aspects of Horse. Her story in the first branch of the Mabinogion is about her as a beautiful and powerful woman and her relationships. She marries, she has a child, and she loses that child for a time through no fault…
In thinking about this year of the Horse, I tend to think about the spiritual beings associated with horses. Epona is an ancient Celtic goddess originally from the region of Germany. She symbolizes and embodies the interconnectivity/trust/love/family of the herd. She was most often depicted with mares and foals and is thought to have been…
