What’s Wrong with What You Want?
When was the last time you consciously wanted or desired something unpleasant to happen to you? Maybe it’s not about what you want but who you become.
What Should I Do?
I generally have problems with the word should. Language and word choice have a powerful effect on thought-forms; certain words can color — or shade — the energy of your intentions in subtle ways that you are not consciously aware of. This post is an extension of the conversation I started in Better Messages […]
Don’t Ask Your Spirit Guides
When working with your spirit guides, asking from a place of powerlessness, with no clear intent or direction, is spiritually impotent and frustrating for everyone involved. Your guides are not omnipotent and they are not in charge. Take a good hard look at your word choice and the energy you’re projecting — are you cries for help too passive, open-ended, immature, or indirect?
Spinning Your Story
There’s not a single person on the planet who doesn’t have all the necessary ingredients for tragedy.

It’s just my name — a damn cool one, if I do say so myself — given to me by my Mama while […]
The Stories That No Longer Serve You
What parts of who you are and how you define yourself are really storylines you carry over from one chapter of your life to another? Are you accepting truth each and every day out of habit — unconsciously? Has it become all too easy to perpetuate the summary of who you say you are, without really looking to see what has changed? Are you voluntarily re-creating a mythic version of yourself — re-running, re-issuing, re-publishing, re-broadcasting tired old standards?
Stars of the Apocalypse
The Apocalypse unveils the window to Heaven — and, my God, it’s full of stars.
The Mountain of Mystery
One day, men of Science and men of Religion will all - finally - make it to the top of the Mountain of Mystery. They will arrive at the summit to look one another in the face, and to view all the paths and camps, laid out beneath them.
