For the next few days I am running a shamanic meditation retreat at Byron Bay. My blogging ability will be limited to what I can do from my iphone. But at least I can still keep in touch with you! I have five days of delicious meditation with my group. It’s a wonderful time for […]
Full Moon ‘Becoming’ Ceremony
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. ~ e.e. cummings A Full Moon is a wonderful time for stepping into the energy of ‘becoming’, providing a strong transformational force at work in our lives. Are you ready for a little positive manifestation? Here’s what you’ll need: A fireproof bowl […]
Blue Moon Healing Ceremony
2012 is a powerful time for clearing, healing and accelerated growth. It also provides a unique opportunity to clear and heal our ancestral lines, allowing future generations to be free of accumulated of inherited limitations. (This works even if you have no children of your own.) One way we can work with this energy is […]
The Gift of Small Kindnesses
“When true friends meet in adverse hour; ‘Tis like a sunbeam through a shower. A watery way an instant seen, The darkly closing clouds between.” ~ Sir Walter Scott When someone is going through the bumps and difficulties of life, a friend can make their journey that much easier. We have become a society where […]
Will you do something for me today?
Will you do something for me today? Hug the ones you love. Tell them you love them. If they aren’t close enough to hug, pick up the phone and let them know you care. Take a minute, stop, and just appreciate this gift of life. Smell the roses. That’s why they’re there. Look after yourself. […]
Failure to Connect…
“I made a nap this afternoon. I made it out of two pillows, a bed, a sheet, a blanket, and exhaustion.” ~ Jarod Kintz If you’re psychic, or intuitive, or creative, or a writer, or an artist, or a meditator, or a musician – if you have a passion or a skill or a hobby, or […]
The Mullumbimby Chocolate Shop
Not far from my farm is a wonderful place which comes straight from the realm of childhood dreams. It’s the Mullumbimby Chocolate Shop, and it’s dear to my heart for many reasons. I sometimes pay a visit and get a little bag of lollies, and then sit outside at a local cafe and write, sipping tea […]
Weird stuff I can’t explain…
“There are three things we cry about in life, things that are lost, things that are found, and things that are magnificent.” ~ Doug Copeland I live and work as a psychic. No secret there. And there are certain activities that come as part of the territory with that. But even so, some things still make […]
Breathing in Life…
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” ~ Albert Einstein Yesterday was wonderful from start to finish. And yet it was also the most ordinary of days. I didn’t win lotto, there was no major excitement, no […]
Dr Sketchy – Beautifully Burlesque
“Have no fear of perfection, you’ll never reach it.” ~ Salvador Dali My brain is still in a post-virus muddle. Clarity comes in fits and starts, and then fog washes over me and my brain disappears entirely. Trust me, this is not conducive to writing. So, what should a writer do when they’re in […]
Signs of Spring
Down here in Australia (where our seasons are reversed from Europe and America), Spring is just around the corner, and already there are signs that she is close at hand. As I lie in bed, or sit on my verandah, I inhale a heavenly bouquet, and it fills me with hope and renewal. The heavy […]
Lessons in Vulnerability
“When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability… To be alive is to be vulnerable.” ~ Madeleine L’Engle I’ve spent most of my life being strong. Being strong for others, being strong for causes, being strong because […]
Orange, Walnut and Fennel Salad Recipe
The orchard at our farm is laden with citrus at this time of year, so whipping up a tasty salad is easier than ever. This salad is perfect with crusty bread, and can be a vegetarian meal on its own (vegan if we omit the feta) or a perfect side for a barbeque or roast. […]
Magical Cupcake Oracle – A Reading with Every Cake!
Won’t you join me for a cupcake and a nice cup of tea? It’s been a big month of Gratitude and I wanted to break out today and work with two themes close to my heart – cupcakes and all things magical. Perhaps you read my post a while back titled The Healing Power of […]
Roast Carrot and Pine Nut Salad
This is a delicious salad that can fill you up on its own, or that makes a beautiful side for other dishes. I’ve made this with baked carrots, but you could also use baked parsnip or sweet potato for equally tasty results. Hint: If you are prone to nibbling on the baked vegetables prior to […]
Best Easy Stewed Rhubarb Recipe
As much as I am grateful for gratitude (and my 30 Day Gratitude Challenge) I am also currently very grateful for rhubarb – and I don’t think I can last another 2 weeks without some sort of food post. So here it is – Blissful Best Rhubarb! Ingredients: fresh rhubarb, raw sugar, lemon Method: Wash […]
