September is here and soon it will be the Fall Equinox. This is the transitional time of the year when the Sun changes direction and the seasons move from Summer to Fall in the Northern Hemisphere and from Winter to Spring in the rest of the world. For many, it is celebrated as a time to look at how they can use the transitional and transformational energy of the equinox to live better and make positive changes.

In our upcoming retreat at Joshua Tree, we will be addressing turning points and using ancient ritual with the Fall Equinox to spur us into focus and empowerment for lasting positive change for ourselves and the world.

ANNOUNCING . . .

Due to the overwhelming positive response to The Messenger in the months I have been editing, we are changing the update format a bit to make it even better. 

The first of the month will be articles, poetry, astrology, and numerology as usual. The 15th of the month will include book and media reviews, videos, announcements, featured items such as author profiles, videos, product reviews and more. 

Thank you all for making The Messenger the Success it is!

If you have a video, book, article, or would like to advertise with us, let me know!

Blessings and remember to Live, Love, Laugh

I Love California Deserts. The land is laid bare and stark in some of mother earth's most breathtaking beauty. This is a collection of my trips around the wide open spaces. So sit back, take the convertible top down and feel the clean, crisp air on your face and the wind in your hair.

Ducks, Racism, and the Great State of Texas

For six years, in the 1980's, I lived in the metropolis that is Houston, Texas. Living in the South is something that many Californians don't like admit to. I also lived in Oklahoma as a child, but I guess that doesn't count. Texas, on the other hand was an adult choice.

When my future hubby number three, Lee, came home one day and said, "I'm going to move to Texas. Will you come with me?" I was flabbergasted. We had been on the brink of splitting up for a long time and I was thinking of leaving. After letting the idea sink in for a moment, I was ready to say "hast la veesta, baby," but the picture of an adventure, living somewhere other than the smoggy, busy, rush, rush world of Southern California, took on a sparkly glamor that I couldn't resist. I said yes.
