My Spiritual Windows

Looking at life through my “mother’s eyes” In a few weeks, the seventh anniversary of my mother leaving this world will come, a sad marker for me and my family though followed two days later is the seventh birthday of my oldest granddaughter. A perfectly timed blessing who arrived in this world at a time and reminded me that the cycle of life is unending, and as I watch her grow through her years joy overcomes the passing with grace of this child in remembrance of a lady very much loved.  Over the last many months of this year, at times when I look into the mirror I can see those crystal blue eyes looking back through my own. My own eyes are blue, but not the crystal sky blue she was blessed with, as was my sister and brother. I never saw myself as a reflection of my mom yet have overwhelmingly felt that reflection in how I chose to act and react to events in my own life. The voice, which would say, “Now is not the time,” “It is not your place” and “Love will heal the wounds.” I

2011 – A Gateway of Blessings With the old saying, “Everything comes in 3’s,” we take entrance to the year 2011. Over the last three years, our world quickened into a state of 3X3 awakening through a process of reorganization and repositioning unseen in a time lapse possibly as rapid in known history of personal evolution and introspection of our lives, our environment and our world. Phenomena in changes occurring in nature, economics, power shifts, and the inner voices from across our globe taking strength. An energy movement created to realign all aspects of your life, with at times taking comfort levels which were known and accepted, then reduced into the very depths of unknowing and rebuild. On a surface level, jobs, the economy, planetary and earth alignments all became visible outer energy signs. On the inner level, those parts of ourselves felt buried or unwanted to surface became heaved into our consciousness for release and recreation. Possibly the hardest of times to endur

The energy over the Earth has become dense; voices of change in the prayers are now creating ripples throughout the universes. Do you desire Moniko to travel to Earth?” As Elder spoke, my own voice paused, thoughts filling my senses of what message I might take to the Earth which would assist in restoring balance. As I found my voice again, like a lightning bolt of energy the words responding to the Elder were “I am already there Elder!” Smiling back, Elder said, “You have learned well Moniko.” As the messenger Moniko, you will take the form of the dove. On Earth, the dove is already accepted as a sign of hope and purity, allowing you as the messenger, to be the message e

Solstice means, “When the Sun stands still.” Our calendar sets December 21 for winter and June 21 for Summer Solstices on Earth. Winter Solstice has long been known as the beginning of a period of rest. Before modernization and advanced mobility, Winter was a time known for staying indoors with periods of reflection of the past year with family and those closest to where you. A time of the year observed for planning the year/seasons ahead. Spring Equinox, being the planting and Fall Equinox, being the harvesting of your plans/seeds/goals for the year as determined during the Winter Solstice.  St. Nicholas paid a visit about two weeks before the Solstice and left candy and trinkets in the shoes of the children as told through the centuries, long before Christmas, known as following four days after Solstice. Eve of the Solstice is

Decisions, unwanted confusion in their lives, worrying about where they will live, who will be responsible for tending to their needs, hazards of continued driving and the dependency, which leaves the adult child feeling strapped and bound by the parent.  EXCUSE ME, unless you came into this world, providing your own roof over your head, taking full responsibility in providing what you ate, keeping yourself clean and never gave a mo
