They are going to take away my woo-woo card and I won’t be invited to the psychics’ block party after today. I will be barred from the psychic 3 on 3 basketball tournament.
Every intuitive has to draw a line somewhere. Applying my five rules of the Good Woo-Woo, here’s where I stand on several popular intuitive ideas.
I have trouble believing in:
Soul Retrieval
This is the idea that through traumatic events in past and current lives, bits of our souls are lost. They flake away to stay protected. These are our soul …

My better half believes that I have no room to talk here. That my woo-woo ways have rendered me incapable of saying that some woo-woo is valid and some woo-woo is B.S.
But let’s face it, people, even in the unclear world of the woo, there is real and there is not so much.
Here’s how I draw the lines of good woo-woo vs. B.S. woo-woo.
First Rule of the Good Woo-Woo
Anybody (with practice and intention) can do it
If you are going to a psychic and they say…
1. I have a gift.
2. You’re …

A minute ago, I talked about whether yelling at or not believing in God made it impossible to hear him.
Now, I’d like to share a conversation I had with Jesus in February…
I thought I left Jesus in the dust about 20 years ago. I’ve always been uncomfortable with Jesus, because so many of his followers are more worried about my choices than their own. I don’t like this idea of one group having the right answer, and everybody else going to hell.
Here’s the conversation I had:
I was in bed. …

So, I got an email from a friend of mine yesterday. He asked this very interesting question:
“Today, I kind of got mad (nothing seems to be going right lately and today I blew up) and I sort of told God off. Basically I said “Why should I believe in you when everything I ask for never happens…I don’t think you’re real.”
Would that hurt my chances of being able to hear him?”
It made me laugh.
Because I have done this.
I have shaken my fist at the air and said, What the hell? …

I’m a little judgmental at times. I wish I could skip through life seeing the divine in everyone, but people are so damn irritating sometimes.
If someone is manifesting as an irritant in your life, it is because they and you are working something out. You are learning from them. They are learning from you.
When one of my kids plays the same bar of the same song over and over again on his guitar as I’m trying to work, I’m learning patience and grace.
He is learning something too, though he obviously …

My dear smart child, Rubin, is 18. He loves physics. He loves philosophy.
He is a starving college student. I know, because he regularly locusts my kitchen.
If you spend time in Portland, you probably know him, because the kid knows EVERYBODY.
Anyway, the other day, we were at the Petite Provence on Alberta. He was eating French Onion Soup. I had a raspberry tart and a latte. We were feeling tres tres philosophical and a oui bit French.
He said this to me…
“Well, mom, imagine that there are countless numbers of universes, that …

So, I told you about my issues with speaking my truth and that looking at my past lives helped me?
Here’s another area that many of us struggle with:
Love.
To love and be loved. To be cherished. To experience the joy of being with someone who deeply cares for you. That can feel elusive.
I struggled with that feeling about eight years ago. I was coming out of a difficult relationship, one of those relationships where you’ve been told up is down and blue is green for so long that you get down …

Why does any of this matter?
It’s fun, but is it vital? Does it change today?
Yes. It can. It can change today.

What is the scary stuff that we may encounter? What is this spiritually negative energy?
Let’s start with what the universe is made of. And by universe, I mean this physical stuff that we are experiencing. Everything that isn’t of the spiritual world.
It’s stuff, right? It’s matter.
Matter is formed and unformed. Matter is continuously changing from one thing to another. It is dynamic and influx. There are two things that make matter be in flux. They are: Chaos and Creation. Things falling apart. Things coming together.
We are powerful participants in this …
