I highly recommend this wonderful book by Whitney Freya.

I Did This Thing

March 13, 2021 by admin

I painted over an old painting, Live on Social Media. It was all about letting go of attachments.

“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything — anger, anxiety, or possessions — we cannot be free.” – Thich Nhat Hanh

So the question came up today…What do you want?

What I really want is travel and adventure. I want to venture into the woods with my wild women friends. I want to dive deep into the ocean. I want to play and explore. I crave more experiences and less stuff.

I desire to make a difference in someone’s life.

At the end of the day, I want to know that my life mattered.

My Mom never liked to reveal her age. It was as if she was embarrassed about how old she was, as if it was a crime for a woman to grow old. She always looked years younger so she kept her age a secret.

But you know what, in a few months I’ll be turning 60! Hey, I’ve said it to the world and I am going to celebrate!!! I still feel like I’m in my 30’s and in great health. I’m over half way through my 200 hour yoga teacher training and heck I even learned to scuba dive last summer. Life is good.

Metatron’s Cube

January 12, 2021 by admin

The Supernatural TV series was pretty accurate with the Metatron character.

“Metatron’s Cube”
Part of my Sacred Geometry series

This sacred symbol is named after Archangel Metatron. He is considered the scribe of God or Source Energy and his cube is responsible for protecting and balancing the flow of energy from Source to the physical realm. Metatron’s story also aligns with the story of Thoth, the Egyptian scribe.

According to the story, Metatron created a cube out of his soul which came to be known as the symbol named Metatron’s cube.

Metatron’s Cube consists of 13 circles that are all touching; this shape is called The Fruit of Life.

Some scholars have theorized that the 13 circles actually represent the 13 archangels. It is said that these archangels each hold a specific element of creation, and therefore, with God’s love, expand these elements to give life to all. They are said to be able to bring balance to the earth.

It is also said that the 13 circles in Metatron’s cube also represent the 13 centers of energy in our human bodies. It is said that there are 13 energy centers of experience. These are believed to be manifested through Metatron’s cube.

Metatron’s cube also contains the five platonic solids, which represent the five elements (earth, air, water, fire, and spirit) and are the geometric building blocks of the universe.
Because Metatron’s cube protects the flow of energy, it is an ideal tool to use for cleansing, protecting, and accessing more energy.
