July Energies


July is almost here.  This is the most potent time of year for me in terms of getting stuff done.  The energy seems all over the place this month so pay close attention to when you move forward and when you rest and refuel.

You don't have to wait for the New or Full Moon to make your plans or celebrate a change you want to make. If you notice the energy of one day meets your objective, circle that on your calendar and a create a special "manifestation" holiday! 


Have a wonderful July!

Guided Meditation to Renew Energy


It is time for complete rejuvenation!  Take this time to relax and prepare yourself for all that is coming over the next few weeks.  You will need this energy to make the most of this time. 

Follow this guided meditation to receive the strength you need.  Read through the meditation and then close your eyes and follow your path.


Take a few deep breaths and close your eyes.  Find yourself standing at the edge of the water on a beach.  The water reaches your toes and you feel a tug at your feet as it pulls away.  Your feet sink deeper into the sand until your feet are mostly buried. 


Listen to the sound of the waves.  Feel the cool water on your feet and ankles.  Feel the sun on your face as you connect with the earth.  It is as if your feet are an electrical plug and the sand is the socket into the energy of the earth. 

What do you need from the earth today?  Do you need some peace or some energy?  Do you need some insight or inspiration?  Let yourself receive whatever is needed.

Now focus on the pull of the water.  The water is offering to take away something you do not need right now.  Is there a thought, habit or feeling that is not helping you to move forward.  Can you consider letting it go for a day, week or month? 

It will take effort, as you will want to fall back into the old way of thinking, feeling or old behavior.  Will you let the water help you release this just for now?  If you fall back into it, that is ok, but you can return here to let the water help you release again.  Let go of whatever it is to make room for something new.

Now think of something you would like a little more of in your life.  This is not a radical change just a small move in the right direction.  Feel the sun shining down on you, allowing you to fill up with the energy and intuition to head in this right direction. 

It is not necessary to have all of the answers on how this will happen.  Trust that you are being given the wisdom to make the right choice in moving forward.

Now feel all three powers connecting with you at the same time.  The gifts from the earth and the sun along with the receiving of the water.  Know you are supported and that even when times are tough you can be given the strength to carry on until they are better.  Feel this connection and energy for as long as you need it. 

When you are ready begin to hear the sounds around your physical body.  Wiggle your fingers and toes, and when you feel ready, open your eyes.

Ghost Town Guided Meditation


We just had the full moon and we have some strange energy around us.  I don’t know if you are feeling it.  The June full moon always feels a bit chaotic to me.  There is a lot happening at this time of the year and it may be time to start something new.

This is a really long and kind of strange meditation as a result.  When meditations like this come to me I know that there is some group of people out there who really need to hear this.  It is always the meditations that I don’t really understand, that cause people to contact me and say how meaningful they were to that person.

I hope this meditation hits the right people!  Please read through the meditation and then close your eyes.  Remember what you can and don’t worry if your meditation takes a different direction than the one written here.

Take a few deep breaths and close your eyes.  Find yourself walking through a small village with only a few houses along the main street.  The village looks almost deserted.  You hear no sounds except for the wind.  Soon a face peeks out from one of the doorways and an old woman waves for you to come over to the house.

You walk towards the house and the woman opens the door wider for you to enter.  She leads you into a sitting area and offers you a cup of tea.  You agree, as you are chilled and feel uncomfortable with the abandoned nature of the village. 

The woman returns with a tray with tea for both of you and biscuits.  She places the tray on a table and seats herself facing you.  She tells you to help yourself and you take a cup of tea.  As soon as you take your first sip of tea you begin to feel better.  You settle into the comfortable chair and feel the warmth of the room.  The woman also sips her tea and seems to relax into her chair. 

You ask the woman what has happened in the village that it seems so desolate.  She tells you that the village used to be filled with people but the jobs went away when the railroad no longer stopped nearby and the people began to move away.  She tells you that the government is thinking of building a highway through the area and wants to buy up the land.  This has led the people to hide in their houses whenever anyone new comes to town in case they are looking to buy the land. 

You ask her why she let you in.  She said that her grandson said that I would be coming and to keep an eye out for me.  You ask who her grandson is and she says she will take you to meet him. 

She leads you to a room at the other end of the house that has been set up like a laboratory and a man sits working with colorful liquids and chemicals.  The old woman tells him that you have arrived.  He rises from where he was sitting and wipes his hands on the apron he is wearing.  The old woman says she will leave us to talk and departs.

The man walks over holding out his hand awkwardly.  You shake his hand and he offers you a seat.  You take it and ask him his name.  You ask him how he knew you were coming.  He says that he found the tale an old manuscript of prophesies that he was translating.  You ask him what else the prophesy said about you. 

He says that the prophesy said that you have a talent that you can teach to the people of the town to help the town survive.  What might that gift be?  You can ask this guide if you are not clear but he may not have an answer.  He says you must take some time to either find this gift or learn how to teach it and then return to the town. 

Thank this man for what he has told you.  He walks you back through the house and says that he hopes to see you again soon.  You walk out the door and begin to walk back through the quiet town. 

Begin to hear the sounds around your physical body.  Wiggle your fingers and toes and when you feel ready, open your eyes.

Open Your Mind


In our previous few meditations we have been beginning our journey for the next six months.  With this new moon we explore new ways of being and moving through this journey.

Take a few deep breaths and close your eyes.  Find yourself laying on the grass in a meadow.  Feel the cool earth underneath you and the grass tickling your arms and feet.  Watch the clouds above you form into shapes.

You have nowhere to be and nothing to do.  No one is expecting you and your whole day is free.  Laying here in the sun is your scheduled activity for this time.  How does it feel to be free of all responsibilities for a while?  When is the last time you felt this way?

If an idea of something you should do or think about pops into your head, return your focus on the clouds above.  What do the clouds remind you of?

Find yourself feeling a connection with the clouds above you as if they are creating a show just for you.  Know that nothing is more important than this time of relaxation and mind clearing right now. Open up the space in your mind for new ideas and feelings to enter. 

Allow the clouds to entertain you or even show you new possibilities.  Feel calm and connected with the world around you.  Take deep breaths as you sink into this feeling.  Let your body and mind become refreshed and renewed.  Enjoy this feeling for as long as you need.

When you feel ready, hear the sounds around your physical body.  Wiggle your fingers and toes, and open your eyes.

Now take some time to write about this experience to learn more from this time of meditation.

Were you able to let your thoughts and feelings quiet a bit for just this short time period? If not, that is fine, it just shows you how noisy your mind is most of the time.

What did you see in the clouds?

Did any new thoughts occur to you even if they are just the beginning of idea?


Can you find even five minutes over the next few days to relax with this meditation and see if anything new about this thought comes forward.

Meditation to Set Summer Intentions


On our last meditation we focused on the journey itself.  In this meditation we are going to think about arriving at our destination.  Remember this destination will not be our last stop.  It is only one destination among many in our future.  What would be the first little sign you would see that life is changing in the right direction?

Take a few deep breaths and close your eyes. Find yourself on a ship out in the sea.  The crew bustles around you as you walk the deck.  Smell the salt air and feel the air move around you as the ship moves.  Feel the ship move up and down with the waves.  You see land ahead of you and you know this part of the journey is coming to an end. 

How do you feel arriving at this new place?  Are you anxious or excited?  What do you think you will find when you arrive? Gaze at the land ahead of you and imagine what your life will be like in this new place.  What will remain the same and what will change?  What do you hope will come to pass?

Walk back below deck to your cabin and sit at the small desk provided.  Take out a piece of paper and write down three things you would like more of in this new place.  One word each is fine as you are not here to plan how they will occur but to but down on paper your wish. 

At the bottom of the paper write, “If this is best for me.”  Know that if these do not come to pass it may have been, that the consequences of attaining these things were too great or they would not have been good for you.

Fold the paper into fourths and walk back up to the deck.  Throw the paper from the stern of the ship so it floats down into the water and sinks beneath the waves behind the ship.  As you let go of the paper, release your attachment to these wishes and know that if they are meant to be they will come to pass. 

This does not mean that you can’t take steps to set yourself in the right direction, but you do not feel any need to force these dreams to come true if they are not right for you.  Thank the universe for all that is good in your life and for accepting your wishes. 

Take a few more minutes to walk along the ship and look out towards the approaching land.  Know that change is coming.  Be grateful for where you are right now and hopeful for where you are going.

When you are ready, hear the sounds around your physical body.  Wiggle your fingers and toes, and open your eyes.

Write some notes from this experience to learn more from this meditation.

What do you hope will change soon?

What is important enough that you can have patience and wait for it to happen?

What are the three things you wrote on the paper?


Can you accept that some dreams are not the right thing for you?
