Within the Dark Night of the Soul
























Sometimes life leads us into the most peculiar places. That’s what has been happening to me recently. 


Some teachers refer to my experiences of late as the Dark Night of the Soul.

Well… Now I can say I understand fully what is meant by that phrase.

In this moment in time, I can say that with the help of angels, my own Spirit and God’s divine love I just might make it. (BTW…Angels come in many forms—divine or earthbound souls. We only need to be observant.)

What I really want now is to figure out how I can help others in need.

Whether it’s through Reiki, crystal (pure light energy) or Matrix Reconnection healing, my heart has been opened to the heartache of others.

The sensation of having an open heart has helped me in forgiving some folk when they were expressing their anger. (Directed in a ‘general’ direction, but I caught the fallout.) Those experiences have taught me patience and compassion.

Those are two attributes felt on the emotional level guide a Healer’s Spirit. (Take a moment to watch the Wounded Healer video: 


http://earthlyenergetics.blogspot.com/2010/03/wounded-healer.html )

God sends tidbits of wisdom to us all the time. That video is one tidbit of information that has helped my through my own recent troubles.

So I’m getting back on track with my life and I’m open to the joys of abundance, love and healing.

Thank God for that. ;o) Prayer is one way to transcend our troubles. Don’t be bashful. Talk to God in your own personal way. The action will transform your life.
When you finish remember to express heartfelt gratitude.

Blessings Always. May Abundance greet You with an ocean wide smile.

Info: Caroline Myss, author of Defy Gravity explains about navigating the Dark Night of the Soul. Chapter Four is very illuminating.

Engage the Magic of the Universe: Ask
We’ve all seen it… Ask and ye shall receive.

I will be perfectly honest. For a very long time I didn’t/wouldn’t ask. Yup. You read that right.

Somewhere along my life’s journey I lost touch with that deeper part of myself. Do I blame it on low self-esteem or childhood up bringing?

No. I prefer to admit that I lost touch with my inner healer and on a subconscious level knew that if I did ‘ask’ then I’d have to be responsible and respond to the call.

I allowed my life to get in the way of participating in my soul’s journey. During which time I became a lost soul.

In 1999 I met my first Reiki teacher. It turns out that Tom has the hands of an angel. His gentle and giving spirit inspired me to move back to my healer self. Even after 10 years I can still remember the look on his face when I admitted that I never asked for anything. (Divine or otherwise) Needless to say, he was shocked.

And I came away from that conversation wondering just why it was that I had stopped asking. More years passed while I went through some life changes. (marriage, geographical, and illness<--more about this later)


Eventually, after much turmoil, I started asking the Divine for little things. Some answers weren’t surprising. Others…yowza!

So each day I began the relearning process. During this time I self-created many circumstances that would eventually lead me here to this moment. There has been a lot of study and some interaction with people the Universe sent my way.

And here’s something that I’ve learned…

There’s a twist on this sacred concept of asking the Divine for what we need.

When we don’t ask, we give our power of creation over to those around us that do their asking.

Stop and reread that.

Isn’t the power of personal creation important in that wonderful life we ALL want? Everything comes from our connection between our soul and its Creator.

Starting today, don’t abdicate the right to choose and create—Ask and it shall be given. The door is there. Open it.

Catholic Church Bans Reiki -- Sad Day!
My response to the latest controversy that the Catholic Church has banned Reiki from their hospitals.

They have also declared Reiki inappropriate for their church members to use in the privacy of their lives. How sad. God please forgive them—they know not what they do.


Posted at Beth English’s Boston Globe article [here]

My response:

Using Reiki to assist someone to heal is an awesome and frequently misunderstood modality. It is a sad day that the Catholic church can't move forward and come to understand this.

They have created harm for those members of their faith who will no longer seek Reiki to assist them.

Just a note for those who do not know: Reiki doesn't come from the person sharing this energy. The healing comes from God/Universe. The laying on of hands is just the 'messenger.' Don't shoot. (or burn)

One comment in this article:

McManus adds... (interviewer) Has he ever experienced reiki? “No,’’ he (McManus) says with a chuckle. “I take two aspirin and call the doctor.’’

Amusing! Aspirin makes me bleed. (internally) And yes. The doctors know this. So while McManus is helped with that simple white tablet --


I choose Reiki!~


Blessings Always. May Abundance greet You with an ocean wide smile.

Family Love & Healing Reiki
It’s true I have been a way for awhile. ;o)

That’s because I was blessed with a visit from my first born son Bryan and his wonderful family.

The last few days have given me new insights to the multi-dimensional connection of families. In several places across the Internet you will have seen me requesting prayers for Baby Chace during the last year.

As a first time Grandmother I was unable to be with my grandson during his times of medical trials. *sigh* Eleven hundred earthly miles separate us.

Each time Chace had to face getting new casts on his little legs I prayed and sent him intense Reiki. Several friends joined in. Then came the necessary surgery because casts and braces failed to straighten his growing feet and legs. I admit I cried when I heard he had steel rods inserted through both of his feet.

More intense Reiki and prayers. So much support from giving Friends.

But… Someone told me that when he finally arrived in Florida Baby Chace wouldn’t know me or may even possibly scream every time he was around me. She was being kind—her words of warning were meant to prepare me.

They arrived on an afternoon Florida sunbeam.

When I opened the door to Bryan’s tall stature standing protectively over his family my heart felt the warmth of mother’s love. Then my gaze dropped to Amanda and Chace.

She was a bit nervous and looked a little tired. (1100 miles can do that) “Do you want to hold your grandson?”

I trembled and looked into his beautiful eyes. Recognition sparked within those dark depths. Chace made a happy sound, smiled behind his binky and nearly jumped into my arms.

Grandma’s first hug.

He’s such a strong little guy. The experiences of his first year of life will only make him more so. His feet braces are blue and pretty much go unnoticed by most people.

His helmet (head is slightly misshaped in the back but will improve) garners attention from many folks that see him. Most show friendship to Chace, others may avoid him because they don’t understand.

Through it all he has the true spirit of an earth angel. ;o)

So today I wish to Thank our wonderful Creator God for sending Chace as a blessing to all who surround him. His loving nature and gentleness is a wondrous wrapper for his strong spirit.

Have a Blessed and Safe journey home my dear family. Mom/Grandma Loves you. ;o)
