SPRING Into Magic and Luck!
According to magical traditions, the first day of spring is said to hold a magical and special ‘attraction’ luck all of its own. In fact, the first rain of spring is said to contain powerful manifesting and drawing powers.
Place a glass or stone or even an earthenware container anywhere outside during these days of the spring equinox in order to catch and contain the first spring...

The Very Best Way to Start Your Day
Indeed God is the One infinite spirit which fills all the universe
with Himself alone, so that all is from Him and in Him, and there
is nothing that is outside. It is within this One presence that I
live, move and have my being. In this light then I see myself and
all others in the context of One Divine Reality.
Saturated with Divine Life, I am guided daily in balance and bliss.

Pepper Chinese New Year with great energy by using...
Okay, so, it’s that time of year again - - time to take our old salt cures and dispose of them properly before building a new one on Sunday, February 10, not only the Chinese New Year but also a New Moon as well! Doubly delicious energies of goodness! But, first, let’s get rid of the old so we can make way for the new.
The first thing that you’ll want to do is to get a brown...

An Apple A Day.....
So, now, after months of preparing for holidays - mentally, emotionally and financially - - it’s time to get back to rituals and routines - - even if they include arguing over homework, housework or just trying to stay on an even keel as the bills come in. I find that round about the middle of January we can all REALLY use the peace and joy that was supposed to be sitting in our stockings...

12-12-12 - THE QUANTUM LEAP!
Mayan priests have long foretold that the twelfth of December is the single most important date of the year as we anchor in the transformational shift that promises to bring us to a higher vibration in this current ascension. In fact, the Mayan people of Tikal in Guatemala, one of the world’s most sacred sites, say that the pyramids located there represent the ‘Sacred Calendar’...

'Tis The Season After All....
Even amidst, or, maybe I should say in spite of the constant hustle and bustle around here of late (the brand is experiencing growing pains all over the place), I have felt a tremendously strong angelic presence around me. Sometimes I have to make myself get quiet and calm (just to save my sanity) and then I feel it more acutely. Or when I am outside and on my daily walk. Sometimes though,...

THE FEAST!
I don’t know about you but I’ve had a lot of restless energy lately. Sure, sure, I was picking up vibes from the Sandy crisis and probably even picking something up from that looming fiscal cliff (I hope those Wall Street Journal reporters who coined that phrase are laughing all the way to the almost doors closed bank!) Anyway, I think part of my angst is that I started so late in...
Sealed With A Kiss!
I am reprinting a letter that one of my favorite authors, Marianne Williamson, posted on her site yesterday. I am reprinting because I couldn’t have said what she says here any better and because it feels almost as if it were channeled out of my very own soul. Thanks Marianne for saying what so many of us are feeling! XXOXE

Let Us Pray .......
Less than two weeks ago I flew to New York to take care of some business and then to meet with my college best friends and roommates. Some of these women I hadn’t see since we graduated from college three years ago - - or something like that. But it hadn’t felt as if even five minutes had gone by. We have jobs and children and lost parents and partners but for those two days we...
I Think Lindsay and Dina SHOULD Get Lit!!
These two.
These two eclipsed my favorite stories of the day about alligators being found all hither and yon all over the outer boroughs of New York City. I am almost as fascinated with the alligator sightings as I have been with all the zombie ones of late. Yes, yes, I’m in the zombie apocalypse camp and these two don’t support that state of late then I don’t know who...
Oceans of Opportunities.....
There’s a little ditty celebrating today’s ‘Columbus Day’ energies that begins, ‘In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue.’ This poem tells the tale of Christopher Columbus who went in search of a prosperous new world. So today let’s use a symbol of a ship to bring smooth sailing to your financial situation. Feng Shui says that a boat properly positioned...
If Fishes Were Wishes....
Today’s guest blog post is from Megan Eckman, a manifesting machine who recently interviewed me for the great CreateHype.com. I loved her story of patience, persistence and faith and think that you will too! Thanks Megan - - oh, and, GO MEGAN GO!! XOE
Two years ago the universe shoved me toward a door of Wonderland proportions. I had no idea at the time just what magic and passion...

Angels Among Us - - especially if we ask!
Well if the onslaught of Christmas catalogs don’t get you, trying to figure out Homecoming and getting tires rotated and even getting to the grocery store will. Traditionally Autumn is the time of year when we’re supposed to start slowing down, going within, preparing for the coming Winter months. And, yet, to me it always seems one of the faster paced seasons - - with an identity...
FEARLESS YOU!
I guess it just wasn’t enough that the Middle East exploded over an inflammatory situation last week and that innocent people are dead, now China and Japan are in the mix of mayhem as well. And I don’t know that it’s going to get any better, at least not in the immediate. At least that’s what the stars say.
Here’s replay of my September 1 appearance on the BOB...
Sit Down, Stand Up - FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!
Don’t just sit there — it’s ‘Stand Up To Cancer Day!’ Feng Shui master teacher Professor Lin Yun taught his students that this philosophy’s way to stand up to cancer and to make it retreat involves a specific sequencing of potentially curing colors. Of course, whenever I offer any medical advice, you should always check with qualified professionals first....
9/11 - - Violets v Violence
It’s a nostalgic and bittersweet sort of day today. I’ve gotten more than a few emails from people feeling jittery or even sensing something sinister (again) in the air. I suspect there’s just a collective sadness in our consciousness for all the lives lost through violence, fear and pain. Not just on just this one day of remembrance but every day that we breathe. Today...
What a Difference a Decade Makes!
Ten years ago I constantly had ten six or seven or even eight year old boys running through and around my house - - all the summer day long. I spent more time during the day yelling at kids to “go outside and play for goodness sakes” than I did meeting deadlines or doing webinars. Well, truth be told there weren’t any such things as webinars ten years ago but you get the...

A Little Extra Help in Making the Grade...
I guess we all go back to the future as they all head back to school during these last days of August. But if you want to give them an invisible edge then try this next Feng Shui cure that definitely makes the grade and promises (in a gentle and smiling way) to help increase learning and knowledge. The image you see accompanying this post is one of Shou Xing often referred to as the ‘god...
Reading...Writing....Compassion.......
I am currently writing (and reading - thank GOD there’s no ‘rithmatic involved though!) a ‘Bringing Balance Back to School - - Ten Tips to an Empowering Education the Feng Shui Way’ (or some such thing) for The Huffington Post but did want to take some time today to add something else to the never-ending school supply list. Compassion.
That’s right, amid the...
Where (and when!) Wishes Come True!
As I mentioned in my blog post of a few days ago, tomorrow starts a time of almost magical proportion with a wonderful and energizing New Moon rising on Friday proceeded by an equally magical time tomorrow and, then, sandwiched by some pretty powerful energies at the end of this month as well when the second Full Moon - - or what’s also called a WISHING MOON rises on August 31.
So, of...
August 16 - May the FORCE Be With YOU!
It just happened to me again! I was watching the late great writer/dancer/commentator David Rakoff’s very last onstage dance and I was moved to both great gratitude and tears. Gratitude that his wit and his raw emotional experience with his disease also led him to allow us to experience some his illness with him. But, bigger gratitude because I want to be just like him when I grow up. ...

My very good friends, Tara Taylor, Intuitive Extraordinaire and bestselling author Lorna Schultz Nicholson have collaborated on a fictional novel based on some of Tara’s real life experiences growing up psychic - - and it pubs today!

LOVE means never having to say you're sorry.....
So I spent a better part of this past weekend pulling together the ‘shell’ or the model for the next Wishing Well webinar. I am working up my own 12 Steps so that you can make your dream wish come totally true. This is not just wishful thinking either. I’ve used these steps my own self to make many wishes come true, one that I am about to tell you about right now. But,...
Oh, the places you'll go....
This is short but oh so sweet.
Venus slides into Cancer this week - - August 7. Nice and easy.
Mercury moves forward this week - - August 8. Wheeeeeeee.
Cleanse. Clear. And get ready.
No.
Really.
Get ready.
We be movin’ and shakin’ now.

Going for the Gold - - Olympic Style Space...
Okay, let’s try this again. Apparently the Universe didn’t want me posting the rest of the space cleanse I attempted to share yesterday, and, well, truth be told, I was even reticent to post it at first because it’s kinda kooky sounding a wee bit more complicated than the info I usually share. But, since I’m kinda kooky and a wee bit more complicated than need be,...
Open Wide and Say "Ahhhhhhhh....."
I don’t know about you but from last week’s Aurora shootings to gun control debates to the latest vitriolic election verbiage to the questionable astro energies, I’m thinking it’s time for a good old fashioned space cleanse. And when I say ‘old fashioned’ I really do mean it. Not like doilies old fashioned or even sisters wearing matching gloves and coats...
The dark, dark night rises.....and other thoughts...
Here’s what I said: You guys all okay? Warner Brothers considering pulling the movie and definitely pulling the ‘GANGSTA SQUAD’ trailers from the movie. Do you agree considering what happened in Colorado? How do you feel about what happened in Colorado? How was the movie? Did we guess the ending like we thought? Are you okay?
I’m pretty sure that he/they...
New Moon Rises!
Those of you who’ve been reading these posts for any length of time are familiar with my son’s early obsession with Batman. Well, really it started straight out of the womb (or so it seemed!) with an obsession with Zorro of all people. My little ginger running around in a black cape and big black hat tied under his chubby little chin from the time he was just walking until he found...
Vive le Retrograde!
Apparently Mercury would have escaped execution by slipping out of the back door of the Bastille if that uprising was happening today. Yes, yes, our old friend, Mercury the Messenger isn’t as much slacking for the next three weeks as he is begging the bourjois and all the rest of us too to take some time in this Age of Enlightenment and review, reflect and revise some old goals so that...
My Version of BED HEAD!
Once upon a very long time ago I learned this morning meditation from one of my master teachers, Flo Aeveia Magdalena. It was during a dark time in my life. I had just suffered yet ANOTHER miscarriage (of the six I eventually had) and I was POSITIVE I was never going to be able to bring a baby full to term.
Oddly enough at the time Flo was teaching me her brilliant conscious birthing methods...
Tomorrow's Full Moon - - It's a Dilly!
During the energies of tomorrow’s totally transformational Full Moon you can empower yourself and find five more months of incredible grace in 2012 by doing one or both of these exercises:

PRAYER FOR THE ELEMENTS
“Almighty power os Nature and Beings of the Elements
I align with Fire, Air, Earth and Water
in harmony and service
to all life everywhere.”
Thanks to Joann Cornug for that ancient invocation but let us add:
Dear Lord, bless and balance our mother earth and give respite to the areas that are most in need. We ask your mercy and invoke your intercession now. Amen.
The Sun and The Stars!
So the other day I was flying back from New York when I decided to do a brief overview of what my summer looks like from an astro perspective. And then I decided to look at someone else’s summer and on and on and on it went. By the time I was done assessing not only my astrology but some other players in my world as well - - well - - I was eight signs in. I decided to do a cursory look...
A Really Hand-y Tip!
I’m cribbing and repurposing my iVillage tip on this post here today because I started something yesterday while I was in the airport because I had some time to kill and now I really want to finish writing it…..see, here’s what happened…..
I attended and spoke at Jeff Keni Pulver’s AMAZING State of NOW Twitter 140conf in New York City the previous few days. I only...
Right To the Core of the Matter .....
And, so, here’s the difference:
When Grayson first told me that his laptop (MacBook) was no longer taking a charge, I told him that I would take it to Best Buy and get a new charger and he’d be all good to go. BUT I was told that because this $1400. computer WAS THREE YEARS OLD that it was, and I quote, “archaic and out of date and don’t bother. I’ll just wait...
Strange Bedfellows - - Part Three
Once again, this post is a continuation of the two that have come before it - - well, actually - - the post is the conclusion to the two that came before. We’re talking about an amazing way to take your concerns, ideas, inspirations and goals and give them over to a handpicked council of advisers who will then show you ways - - WHILE YOU SLEEP — to make your dreams come true.
So,...

Today’s empowering info is actually going to be a continuation of my last post, so you may want to just take a looksie there first and then come on back to get the rest of this nighttime ritual and powerful routine.
Okay, so, now, you’ve decided who your personal Council of Advisers is going to be. Remember, these people can be ANYONE, living or dead, who you can actively imagine...

Bedroom Politics
I know I’ve been missing in action lately but I’ve been putting so much time and effort into the upcoming ATTRACTING ABUNDANCE webinar and I am so excited about it that I’ve been walking around in a sort of fog. Of course, it’s also almost the end of school and Behind the Wheel started late last week too. And, yes, truth be told, I’ve also been prepping my speech...
Adding Another KEY to the Chain of Our Abundance...
So you may or may not know that this year I lost my treasured right-hand ‘man’ and all-around amazing assistant Tammy, and, although I was flummoxed for a moment in time, I decided to take a big, fat plunge into the abyss of the unknown and start pulling a team together that would expand our entire brand. And so began my intention. I wanted to find people who would bring their own...
Sunday in the Park w/ New Moon Solar Eclipse....
Okay, because she can say it so much better than I can, I am copying and pasting my own personal astrologer’s interpretation of the New Moon Eclipse unfolding starting tomorrow. It’s pretty extensive and might seem a bit ponderous, but, it’s all and everything you could possibly need to know about this moon and it’s influence, so, better safe than, well, you know. In...

Besides the fact that he lives and breathes and is happy, smart and wonderful - - this was the best gift of my Mother’s Day written by my the light of my life. My son’s Mother’s day poem to me:

You always provide me with perfect advice,
Ever since my mouth touched the very first bottle,

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
For all the mothers - - the ones that birthed us, the ones we have become, the ones that nurtured and nourished us even though we came from another’s womb - - for the men who could be called ‘mom’ and the mom’s who have raised great men - - for those who walk a bit ahead even though they always feel as if they are behind - - for those who sit by bedsides and pray and for...

War Horses Asses
The biggest sports story of this past weekend wasn’t the Mavs total turnaround from donning the title of last year’s NBA elite or ‘I’ll Have Another’ dashing across the derby finish line with the first female jockey atop ever to win that race (her hat was the best I saw there!) Nor was the top story the mysterious murder of the groomsman at the Downs. Nope- not...

The Blueprint of Your Life!
Last Friday I met with a remarkable healer who I had been hearing about for years and years. Apparently this doctor used to work here, in Virginia Beach at the Edgar Cayce Association for Research and Enlightenment (or ‘the A.R.E.’ for short) but by the time I heard about his magical and mystical healing abilities he’d already started to travel the world speaking and...
The other day I watched one of the Ted Talks - a conversation with Michael Norton called “How to Buy Happiness.” During this talk, Norton proposes that indeed, money can and DOES buy happiness. But, as Norton supposes and then supports with research - money buys a ton more happy if and when spent on someone else or on some other altruistic objective. Norton and his colleagues had...

Okay, so you all know that author and relationship expert Arielle Ford is one of my mentor’s and an all around chick’s chick - and - now - her sister and Oprah fixture Debbie Ford has written a brand new book that is spot on for the times at hand.
BUT - before we talk courage and confidence, I’d like to wax enthusiastically about my latest anti-inflammatory obsession -...
