In the Midst of Revelation
We’re in the middle of Mercury Retrograde right now, and I — as always — am feeling it in a Big Way.
April, Not So Foolish
Let me start off by being very clear that I don’t think the pranks played on April Fool’s Day are very funny. By and large, they are mean and rude. And this year we’re all going to start the month on rocky footing as Mercury begins its retrograde dance on the 1st. Ignore that first […]
Travel: Liminal Movement
I’m in a truly liminal travel state for an extended period of time, and — as usual — the universe is offering me some lessons along the way. However, I’m not ready to talk about them yet, being in media res. Then, just a few days ago, a reader asked me what the heck I […]
The Deadend of Avoiding Conflict
Hi, my name is Lisa and I have a bad case of conflict-avoidance.(Hi Lisa)
Gathering: Spiritual Nourishment
I love gathering people together under some pretense, and then sitting with them for a delicious meal. This is usually accompanied by a bit of wine and a lot of laughter. Sometimes I think a core part of my spirituality relies on regular gatherings. Which isn’t a bad way to navigate life’s shoals.

Annual Review & Goal Setting 2023
Each year at my birthday I review the previous year, celebrate my accomplishments, and set goals for the coming year. (Here’s my post from last year.) Sometimes I adjust those goals a bit at the witches’ new year (Samhain). Over the years I’ve learned to set fewer and smaller goals to allow for new opportunities […]
Changes Coming!
I’m super excited about a few things that will be coming to this site and to me as an author in the social media milieu.
