Newly Hatched Goslings
Molly and Sir Goose returned without 3rd Wheel this year. The roof was the initial place selected but I opted to persuade Molly to relocate to the ground next to the tree where the ferns would provide seclusion, and no eggs would be rolling off the roof (see Trio Return for more details.) Unlike previous [...]
Year of the Bible?
I just recently learned via an email petitionthat the Pennsylvania House of Representatives unanimously passed HR 535, a nonbinding resolution declaring 2012 “The Year of the Bible.”The resolution states that we have a national need to study and apply the holy Scriptures, which from my perspective is some scary stuff. Not only is this resolution [...]
Domesticating Free Ranging Cats
There are a number of things that need to be taken into consideration before anyone decides to play the Good Samaritan and rescues an adult free ranging stray cat that may be visiting their home. Unlike house cats, free ranging cats lead extremely active lives while covering their very large territories and domesticating them requires [...]
Authentic Appreciation
Experiencing and feeling authentic appreciation, thanks-giving or gratitude on a daily basis sounds so simple, but it has been an ongoing journey for me.I tried that fake it until you make it attitude of gratitude thing and contrary to many who support this path, trying to think nice, act nice, or say nice things just [...]
Autumn Equinox Harvest
The Autumn Equinox is the first day of the fall season. Day and night are equal before the suns light weakens and the darkness of the night becomes longer. Our growth for this annual cycle is in the process of completion. Now is the time to reap what we have sown to harvest all [...]
Pet Health
Ever wonder why so many pets are becoming ill, or why so many vets prescribe one drug after another or why pet health insurance has become such a big business? The short answer – Big Pharmas previous campaigns finally paid off veterinary medicine is under its big fat thumb. The vet schools were infiltrated [...]
Summer Solstice Growth
Our journey began with the East gate in the spring, and we are now ready to walk through the South gate as the Summer Solstice is now upon us. On June 21st, the Sun will stand still once again before reversing direction and beginning its journey towards the Harvest time in the fall. The Suns [...]
Signs & Symbols
There can be no doubt that we are inundated every single day with all kinds of information that comes to us in a variety of ways via signs and symbols. Archetypes have been deeply embedded in our psyche – our soul since the beginning of time. Before formal language, signs and symbols was the way [...]
What Rules Life?
Remembering Martin Luther King Jr. on January 17th. This man was a bit before my time I was a young girl when he was murdered. Like many, I merely thought of him as a major civil rights player for African Americans. It was not until years after his death that I began to fully [...]
Winter Solstice Dormant Rest
Shorter days and longer nights mark the beginning of the Winter Solstice on December 21 when the Sun stands still before reversing and beginning its slow return. While everything in nature appears to be in a dormant frozen state of rest, the seeds buried deep in the darkness of the Earth are gathering new energy [...]
Healing Relationship
Most of us spend our lives bumping into each other and jumping from one relationship to the next searching for love and companionship. We fall in love and then like a light switch, we turn that love off and move on to the next relationship when the fire begins to heat things up. However, what [...]
The Struggle Life
No matter how much we strive to keep things simple and go with the flow, the fact is, struggling is an inevitable part of life. It is also important for our personal development, and shows up to either remind us or teach us something about ourselves. What we learn from struggle seems to depend on [...]
Lucy Is Flying
Upon my arrival home late one afternoon, I caught the last cluster of geese in the process of getting ready to head for the eastern sky. Lucy was hanging back at a distance when all took flight. I began talking to her, and she was walking towards me when I heard the flock circling round [...]
Is Healing From God or Satan?
My work in the spiritual healing realms presents a double edge sword sometimes. It requires getting up close and personal with folks, which can open another door for additional work thatis challenging to say the least. I have just recently come through some of this challenging work with one Catholic Christian, and am writing this [...]
Cat Treats The Fox
Cat Neemon (pictured in companion animal wisdom) recently came for a visit. He spent about an hour or so with me, and had a nice meal before heading out to do whatever it is that cats do. Shortly after he exited my house, I walked outside and discovered he had made sure I too was [...]
Goose Lucy News
Some are asking again so here is a little news for one celebrity – Goose Lucy. Her wings are strong and fully functional. However, she has been staying close to home since her six-day trek away after the goslings flight day. To date, no one has actually seen her take off for the sky but [...]
Goslings Flight Day
Flight school training was very quiet this year. I missed the noise and ruckus of previous years but there were only two-feathered students needing to learn, and it was hit or miss when it came to seeing their practice runs. LC flew out a couple of days before the two young goslings first flight. When [...]
Reds The Fox
It is hard enough for wild creatures to survive under normal conditions but many of them are struggling even more today due to the loss of their habitat to humans. Hunger has made their struggle easier to witness, especially with shy predators like the red fox. These creatures are normally nocturnal but their search for [...]
Goose Lucys Walkabout
Lucys days of being an outcast are long gone. She has become one of a big happy goose family thanks to LC. 2-web and his mate along with some others began returning a few days after the trio flew out, so they too must have had a bad hatch. All geese are currently in the [...]
The Trios Gosling
The trio returned and initially selected my roof for nesting. I was not sure I wanted to have them up there, and especially if it meant Lucy would be denied access to my house. They must have sensed my thoughts because they moved to the pond after a few days. Their site between two trees [...]
Personal Development Plan
Once again, an area of personal development came up during a conversation with a client friend, which is an extension of mind your thoughts that I feel is important to address. There is much emphasis on self help techniques such as goal setting and the power of affirmations that has been a growing trend for [...]
Goose Lucy and LC Update
A few have asked about Lucy and LC so here is an update. In spite of our initial challenges, LC and I are getting along much better these days. I believe this change for the better has much to do with the change in my perceptions. One day LC was really pushing on my buttons [...]
Utilize Your Dreams
This is one I always get hit with so if you (the reader) believe that you dont dream then I will say to you what I have said to many throughout the years, which is stay tuned. Contrary to what some believe, everyone dreams but not everyone remembers his or her dreams. At night we [...]
