It is time all beings tapped into the wellspring of power associated with their divine feminine aspects. To heal a world so fractured and depleted, all beings must root into those parts of themselves they have long been taught to suppress, for whatever reason. Women and men alike. The world is not well.

Liberation
“It is not power that corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it.” ~ Aung San Suu Kyi My earliest childhood memories are rooted in state violence. Much of my life since has involved some measure of [...]
Revolution Collective
Now that I have your attention, I wish to speak to a few things that are disturbing not only to myself, but to the collective frequency. It’s no secret we are living in challenging times. The social climate is anything but peace. What I want to remind everyone is that the Earth itself was founded [...]

Gods and Giants.

I always gain something and leave something behind when I visit India. My love for this country knows no bounds. My heart expands each time I have the chance to go here. I went into the country crying this time, and I left crying, both times for the deepest of loves a human can know. [...]
Don’t Shoot the Messenger
In lieu of the latest scandals involving men in positions of power, abusing their power, I have thought deeply and tried to remain objective. When we use one another's pain as a platform for political agency alone, we perpetuate the very dominant systems we seek to transcend. By simply focusing on the actual events or [...]
