The Occult Problem

My life is pretty wacky at the best of times.  While the general populace is going to concerts and getting together to yell at the basketball game, shrieking at bad calls by refs and cheering on their favorite players, going out to play games and enjoy the water and sun, I’m writing blogs and working…

Being Receptive

“The receptive is a phenomenal power–it attracts, generates, it sets the whole dance in motion.  In the Hindu tradition, divinity is symbolized by a yoni, surrounding a lingam.  The yoni draws the lingam in just as much as the lingam thrusts.  You need both.  Receptive energy is magnetic.  That is how it initiates–it draws what…

Speak the Truth

In any relationship there are at a minimum two people.  While it may be an oversimplification, in general one of those two people will have been the seeker and the other will have been the sought.  These categories are less about the act of looking for someone to be in relationship with or the willingness…

Life Is Short

On the one hand, no opportunity is truly lost.  The specifics may change, the timing, but if it’s something you really want, it doesn’t matter that you didn’t get there 10 minutes ago or 10 years ago, you can have it now.  Yes, it will look different than it would have before, but you are…

Stop The Routine, I Wanna Get Off

It doesn’t matter how much it’s for our own good, how much good it does us and those around us, sometimes we just need to break free of the routine.  Most people complain about the routine when it’s rubbing them the wrong way.  When it’s strangling them, keeping them from being who they want to…

The Room Of The Undressing

Startracks.   Spiral nebulae.    Craters of the moon.  She lets herself fall.  She falls into the room of her wants.  The room where the demands of women are endless.  Where her voice has endlessly demanded her to go.  This room which reveals her.  Where she is clumsy again.  Where she is awkward in her grown-up clothing. …

Now Or Later

At some point, now or later, you’re going to have to risk BEING YOU in order to find out who that really is. Not the conditioned you, not the “you” you’ve been taught to believe you are, who you really are. And this perhaps will be the scariest, the most loving, the most rewarding thing…

It Feels Like…

Part of what draws people to a spiritual life is a feeling that they need to do something or be something.  It’s like a religious calling, but less well defined or less structured.   And most of us want to know what that calling is and want to achieve it the best way we can. This…

How’s The Ride?

So we’re nearing the end of the first 1/3 of Horse’s year.  It’s a good time to look back and get an idea of how things have changed from the New Year until now.  My sister taught me something years ago and it has stuck with me, although I usually apply it in way I…

Creative Meditation

Over the past 9 months or so, as I’ve been researching about Akasha and the Akashic records for a book I’ll be writing, I’ve been studying the Kabbalah.  Yes, they are connected.  🙂  Plus I’ll hopefully be putting out a class on Kabbalah for DailyOm.com sometime this year.  Sooner rather than later, but I still…
