We teach best what we came here to learn — the double-edged sword of life lessons and life purpose — that the very things you learn the hard way, that you may view as your curses, your challenges, your struggles, are often deeply connected to the wisdom you are meant to share.

Shaking the hell right out of it
For anyone who identifies as an intellectual, it’s very easy to fall into the trap of critiquing, taking apart, and dissecting what’s wrong. You could spend a life-time looking at everything through a pessimistic lens or filter, always diagnosing, never contributing solutions.
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?
Be with What Is
When the day tells you it doesn’t want to be seized, grab a pillow and put on your sweat pants and be with what is. Sometimes, the best course of action may be doing nothing; but most often, it’s a matter of practicing the more subtle art of doing less…
Spinning Your Story
There’s not a single person on the planet who doesn’t have all the necessary ingredients for tragedy. But look at the recipe for Stories of Survivors — the details, the actions, the events — the elements that make up the story of a Victim are the same raw materials that you can use to tell the story of a Survivor.

Patricia Singleton has tagged me with a request to share personal, quirky, eccentric facts about myself that you might not know from reading Shift Your Spirits.

Creating Solutions — Blog Action Day
We know what the problems are with our impact on the environment — what are the solutions? Everything we make starts with an idea. We need a vision — an inkling, a conversation — about how to create the world in which we want to live.
Are Spirit Guides Assigned or Chosen?
Reader Question: “How do you think we come by our Spirit Guides? Are they assigned to us by some Higher Power as needed, do our primary guides choose us at birth, do we make agreements to work with them in this lifetime before our birth?”
What’s Your Project?
Your life purpose is not necessarily your job. Of course, when you spend a lot of your time and energy pursuing work that is in line with a higher calling, it’s incredibly fulfilling; your everyday life is transformed on a lot of levels. But don’t mistake discovering your calling with living your life on purpose…
Slade : Meaning of The Name Slade
Yes, my “real” name is Slade — it’s not a chosen name; I didn’t change my name as a rite of passage; it’s not a pen name, pagan name, or faerie name. It’s just my name — a damn cool one, if I do say so myself — given to me by my Mama while…
Do You Have An A-Team God Posse?
I have yet to encounter anyone who did not have at least two or three benevolent entities attending them. I refer to the entire, diverse, and individually variable group of spiritual beings that surround you as your God Posse. Within that group, the primary entities that assist you on your spiritual mission are personal guardian angels and spirit guides — which are not the same thing.
Stars of the Apocalypse
The Apocalypse unveils the window to Heaven — and, my God, it’s full of stars.
