Memory = THE PAST “Where did you come from?” In Memory lies our Identity. There are probably no sadder words than “I don’t remember you.” We are born with wild, unexplored dreams and we spend our lives trying to live up to them by learning & acquiring partnership, discipline & practice. Memory is the foundation…

Marriage is a spiritual partnership of equals, a conscientious joining of two lives seeking to shape a common purpose animated by love. If either partner is looking for a mule, hostage, trick mirror or foot soldier, the partnership will fail. The fact that our higher purpose can only be discovered after we have sealed the…

Our Garden is an island in the universe that is Earth. As we travel, we soon find out that Earth itself is another Garden, almost too large for us to comprehend, containing many wonders. We are creatures of this planet that nourishes us; but who’s taking care of who? Gardens need a lot of care.…

Age=WISDOM “What would you advise your 20 yr old self?” When we start racking up the years, we have a choice. We can “grow up” or we can “grow down”. Growing down would mean becoming more self-absorbed, demanding and infantile, a mass of entitlement compromised by bodily aches and pains. Growing up means assuming the…

The Sun=LIGHT&TRUTH “Turning on the heat” We are all Sun Worshippers. It is easy to understand how this star became a deity to the ancients considering it warms and replenishes us into activity and strength. Turns out, we are all batteried by solar power, just like the reptiles. Our doctors and cosmetologists tell us to…

Dreams = IMAGINATION “Spiritual Connectivity” In Dreams we discover ourselves. Dreams give the lie to the idea that we are simple biological creatures tethered to rituals of attachment, food foraging, illness and death. Because in Dreams we see visions, and we spend we rest of our lives puzzling out their meaning. There has not yet…

Duality=AMBIVALENCE “Love/Hate” The Shadow casts us into Duality, and Duality reminds us that meditating on these opposites in our natures must become part of our standard meditational practice. Whenever we desire to bring a soulmate into existence we have to ask ourselves: what is its opposite? Consider all sides of this equation; consider, also, that…

The shadow=DISSONANCE “Confront your shadow self” We were very young when first we became aware of The Shadow. No happy moment, no celebration of joy as unaffected by its subtle miasma. But what is it exactly? Much of childhood – history itself, in fact – is absorbed by the effort to put a name to…

Winter=DORMANCY “Anything happening?” Winter’s force is shrouded, subtle. The most important changes are happening beyond our vision. The snowshoe rabbit changes fur to pure white for self-protection; he doesn’t have to think about it; it just happens. Other creatures work a little harder. Our art teacher always told us to value the white spaces, because…
