Soul Partners

When I experience discomfort with an interaction with someone I know or a stranger I meet, I choose to hold the interaction with a divine perspective. As I daily surrender myself to a spiritual journey and commit to continued growth and maturation, I know Spirit allows for this healing to sometimes come in unexpected ways. It takes conscious courage to consistently look within for what is being mirrored to me when I am triggered, angered or disturbed. Many blessings to all of us who choose this courageous path of responsibility, co-creation and emotional/spiritual intelligence.

Trust the souls that come your way that touch you deeply. They bring a unique offering and gift for you.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

“This is part of your purpose. Tell others all the answers are within. Seek deeply within yourself and trust the places that speak to you. Seek deeply within yourself your own voice and whispers. Seek deeply within yourself the desires that inspire and move you.

Connect with people, places and experience that move you deeply and create gratitude and clarity for you in your life.

Look for the souls that you know deep within.

Welcome the souls who touch you deeply. You will see in their eyes that they know you too.

Trust this connection.

Trust this knowing.

Trust this seeing.

Each connection that moves you from within has a gift for you on your Soul’s journey to healing and maturity. Look for the gifts and offer your gifts to them as well.”

Seeking Help, Surrender, Support

July 18^th

Surrendering our frailties opens us to Divine power and wisdom.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

There is a balance between what I can do and what I must surrender for Divine intervention and healing. In my spiritual practice, I learn to keep my emotional, physical, relational, financial and spiritual life full of integrity and harmony. I do my part. I take responsibility for these areas of my life.

There are some aspects of each of these realms, however, where it is necessary to ask for help and recognize that the outcome is out of my control. During these moments of discernment, I seek spiritual guidance and support. If I have done my part and adjusted my behavior, then often times a spiritual solution is called for and, I, in my humility and wisdom, seek it. This often occurs for me when I am personally challenged with a behavior in my relationship with myself or another that I simply cannot seem to change on my own. Knowing some wounds/shadows run deep or accepting there are karmic energies beyond my understanding and control has been necessary. I seek a Power greater than myself in these times.


Today a friend called for support. She and I have had a close and challenging, at times, relationship. As I listened to the situation for which she was troubled, I recognized a pattern that I have seen in her life, relationships and even in our friendship emerge again. When she asked for my feedback and perspective in the situation, I gave it to her straight. I told her from my perspective she was "running away" again from a difficult situation because she was scared and her justification for doing so is that the other persons involved are bad and wrong. So many gifts emerged from this situation for me.


First of all, asking for help and knowing we need a community of support is essential to living an honest, fulfilling life. My friend's reaching out for help gives me the courage to do the same when times call for it. 


Secondly, we cannot see the deep patterns and shadows of our own wounds on our own. We need one another to help. To ask for feedback from someone who knows us well and be open to hear an honest assessment is a testament of courage and self-love in action. My friend has inspired me to remember that I need other people, too, and my commitment to spiritual and emotional maturity is stronger than my ego need to be right or "look good" on the outside. 


Lastly, these deep shadows and patterns of survival that we carry within us are reenacted in our lives and relationships with others. Not only do we need people in our lives that love us with all these shadows in tact, but also we must have a spiritual connection that we can seek assistance from and release these pattern to in the hopes of healing. While sometimes Spirit speaks to us through those that love and know us intimately, the real miracle comes from surrender to this Higher Power and allowing transformation within so that we can change the survival patterns and live the live we deeply desire. 


Asking for help, receiving honest feedback and seeking Spiritual intervention are foundations for living a full and spiritual centered life. How wonderful that we have the choice to create this in our lives and to live authentically. 

Tension~Mary Magdalene~Sacred Feminine~Soul's work

      To celebrate struggle seems a paradox in my understanding of the spiritual journey. I also realize that understanding the spiritual journey isn't always possible. At times, there is simply surrender to the journey of my soul's work. In seeking a deeper understanding of what it means to celebrate, however, I see the origin of the word means "to honor" and this makes some sense to me. When I experience myself struggling or frustrated in my life, not sure the direction to take or how to move forward, holding this energy with care and honor may be the exact action to take. I can hold myself, my life's work and my spiritual journey with honor and celebrate that there is a power greater than myself, perhaps many angels and saints, that celebrate and honor my journey as well. The journey is joyful and sometimes tense-filled  but I know that I am not alone in celebrating it.

Celebrate the tension and struggle of your soul’s work.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

“So often the human saints and angels that love and have loved you on earth desire to protect you and keep you from feeling the challenges of growth, tension and maturity that come from the spiritual path.

We want, like you, to see those we love fly free and fly high, but often, this is not the path of life. The spiritual life gives room to the soul to do its work, to learn its lessons, to find meaning in the mistakes and struggles. The struggles and challenges provide tension to discover the deepness of one’s calling, purpose and desire. The tension and struggle of the soul’s work is the place the soul meets the Divine and finds meaning and wisdom for service.

Celebrate this challenge. Celebrate the soul’s wounded work and healing time. Celebrate each struggle known on this spiritual path. Transformation begins in struggle and happens in birth.

We are with you in this journey, cheering on the soul’s work, holding kindly the wounded little one and honoring the wisdom and gifts that will emerge.”

Answers within...

The answers seem to be the same for me; guidance comes from within as I dwell with Spirit. Intuition is deepened and actions aligned with my value of being of service to others are clarified in prayer and meditation. Many blessings to you on your own journey of spiritual and emotional intelligence.

Your sacred time with us will nurture your service to others.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

“You have many gifts. Like a hungry bird, individuals will flock to you, one at a time. You will see them and recognize their hearts.

As you connect, heart to heart, with love and acceptance, they will ask for your wisdom and you will speak it to them with conviction and love. Your intuitive knowing will guide you. This knowing is nurtured, refined and learned during your sacred time with us. From our time together, you will speak with profound kindness to the exact place, with the exact words, at the exact moment for spontaneous transformation and healing to occur.

Trust your knowing. Trust your heart that sees and knows. Come to us to be filled, healed, guided and held. "

Leadership and Spirituality

May 22^nd                                                                       

Spiritual leadership has all that you want it to contain and all that you resist in your life.

 Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

“Leadership is about service. The foundation of sacred and holy leadership springs forth from the intention of service and love. Service and love mean surrendering our wounded egos. We can then hold these wounded places with great care and kindness. 

Leadership requires great humility; knowing we need the Divine for guidance and knowing we are called. It is our unique way to service. Leadership also calls us to bold and often unpopular action. Leadership requires us to speak what we see when no one else is willing and to take the risk of mirroring what no one else will mirror for the good of the greater community.

Leadership requires falling at the feet of the Divine Spirit and proudly receiving the blessings of mercy and the courage to go forth. Leadership has all that you want it to contain and all that you resist in your life."

Tension always precedes transformation and birth. Trust the tension.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

This is a message that I needed and wanted to hear. There are places of tension of in my life today; both emotionally and spiritually. I want clear answers and directions NOW and try as I might for force an outcome, the tension remains. 

In reviewing the original meaning of the word "tension" I learned that it comes from the Latin to "stretch." I have a dream that I have been nurturing for a couple of years now. When I detach from my own struggle around it, I can see how Spirit is stretching me spiritually and emotionally. I am being called to trust, surrender, release, receive and trust, surrender and release some more. 


While there is an outcome that I imagine, I am not sure of the exact direction and actions to take to manifest it all. The one thing that continues to hold me afloat is my own prayer and meditation practice. Daily I pray, meditate, breathe deeply, sometimes throw a temper tantrum, beg or demand; but eventually I come to surrender and survive another day. Recently I've heard an old saying, "When Spirit closes a door, a window will open but the hallway can be hell." 

To this I can relate. The hallway can be dark, smelly and never-ending as well.

Sacred Feminine energy and voice reminds me that "tension always precedes transformation" and this provides me comfort. I remember imaging my beautiful daughter and how excited I was to meet her during a very long and arduous birthing experience. I can rely on that experience to remind me that it was well worth the waiting. 

As women and men, we give birth in many ways to numerous projects, relationships, events, dreams and ways of being. Breathing deeply, doing what we can in the moment and trusting the process helps. 

Blessings to you on your journey. I know there are times and places where the tension has seemed unbearable in your life as well. Knowing there is light at the end of the hallway and that we are not alone always helps!

Lack, abundance and trusting Diving Source....

There is often a challenge to releasing old beliefs and allowing ourselves to experience, new more empowering belief systems. We must first acknowledge our attachment to what is familiar, even when what is familiar in our beliefs no longer serves our highest good. In this ownership, we then have the ability to release and let go; welcoming beliefs that serve our highest good and provide us the energy to share our gifts and contributions with others.

A sense of lack is a lack of faith. There is no lack with Divine Source.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

Hear this now. There is no lack where there is Divine Source. There is no running out of anything where Divine Source lives. There is no lack of money. No lack of food. No lack of time. No lack of energy. No lack of resource of any kind.

Your desire to remain attached to a belief of lack is your desire to remain in control of life and your own self-will. There is no such thing as lack. When you surrender to the abundance of the Source from which we all are connected, you will know this to be true. Abundance will then flow in all ways and flow consistently with lushness and miracles galore.

You must surrender this belief and forgive yourself for any attachment to past. This, too, is how you stay in lack. It is a lack of self-forgiveness, and a lack of belief in Divine plan. As imperfect as you are and have been on your journey, remember that your heart has been given over to Divine Source. We know this. Therefore, you shall claim Divine order and timing in all things.

Believe now in the abundant flow of all energies. Believe now in the Divine order of all things. All things.”
