Woman and Nature – Our Bodies are Ourselves by Carol P. Christ
This earth is my sister; I love her daily grace, her silent daring, and how loved I am how we admire the strength in each other, all that we have suffered, all that we have lost, all that we know. We are stunned by this beauty, and I do not forget: what she is to me, […]
Crossroads and Pathways by Rev. Dr. Karen Tate
At many times during life, we find ourselves at crossroads and pathways and uncertain of what’s the best move forward. It’s hard to know whether to move or stay put. As a priestess of Isis, I can’t help think about Herodotus who said the sistrum, sacred instrument of Isis, Bast and Hathor, was shaken and […]
High Priestess Tarot – Ten of Swords by Kathryn Ravenwood

How to Use Malas for Mantra Practice by Kimberly F. Moore #MantraMonday
Malas are sets of beads used for prayer and meditation. “Mala” is a Sanskrit word meaning “garland”. I find it beautiful to think of them as garlands for holy adornment!

High Priestess Tarot – The Seven of Swords by Kathryn Ravenwood
Trust issues. We all have them. We may start relationships with friends, lovers, business and life partners open and trusting. We look into their eyes and see their beauty, warmth, talent, and what they offer to us. We accept it at face value. Unfortunately, people have secrets (we all do) and sometimes those secrets are […]
Goddess Full Moon Divination for April 2017 – Goddess Yamuna Devi and Opening to the Fearless Warrior
