Sheltering in place

'Wu wei is the cultivation of a mental state in which our actions are quite effortlessly in alignment with the flow of life.'

If we allow this time to reset, we will be in Wu Wei. There are good things to come out of this terrible time, different ways of being, realizations that strike us all at once. We have stopped our frantic running around and have come to a place of stillness. And if we can let go of fear and despair we can see how important this is. Gratitude for what we have.

For those who are sick or have sick loved ones, my heart goes out to you. So far we've been lucky--but you never know what lies around the corner. All we can do is pay attention, be careful, and do what we need to do to stay safe. And in the meantime find the still point in the chaos. This too shall pass. And maybe it will usher in a new way to do things--goddess knows we need that!

Stay well and take the time to find yourself.

The Goddess says...

What is happening on earth is meant to be. And although there is tragedy, light is prevailing, not only onto the earth but in the minds and hearts of those who live here. The earth is resting and healing. Dolphins are swimming in the canals in Venice. The water is clear and there are fish. The darkness that has held us within its grip, thru political choices and hatred, has backed off for a moment. Our hectic lives have come full stop. We can look around and breathe. Plane sounds are missing, heavy traffic is gone. Animals are showing themselves as spring appears. Consciousness is shifting.

Perhaps this will usher in a new way of doing business--more online which will mean less pollution from cars. Our frenetic lives will be calmer, allowing us a moment to think about what's important. For myself I have felt the need to reach out to those I care about. To stay more closely in touch. Life is precious, as is this amazing earth we live on. At this moment we realize that we are all one.

New book on the way!

Here is a possible cover idea...what do you think? Book will be called Myrddin's Mother--at least so far...I love this image from shutterstock.

Here is a short excerpt. And if you are behind on the earlier books in the series, best get started! (Siobhan's Secret, Dagda's Daughter and Kat's Conundrum)

The sun was going down, unrelenting shafts of intense light pouring through the glass into the high-ceilinged room. “I don’t like this house,” Kat murmured, shielding her eyes.

“Neither do I,” Val replied. “But Arwen was adamant.”

Kat frowned at her former lover and powerful magician. “What’s happened to you?”

When Val looked up his eyes were filled with an indefinable expression. The swirling colors had gone dark, his eyebrows twisted into corkscrews. “If you remember, when you dropped Arwen off things were very bad here. Alfheim had just been devastated by Ragnarok and I was not myself. I’m sorry to say I didn’t take proper precautions with him, telling myself that getting things up and running was the first priority.”

“In other words, you let him run wild.”

Val nodded, his sad eyes meeting hers. “I’m afraid he’s taken a dark turn. The friends he runs with are hell bent on destruction rather than working with the rest of us to bring back order. Arwen is impressionable and easily manipulated. If he isn’t in touch with the witch, he will be soon.”

“So, you expect me to…what, exactly? Bring him back to his senses, discipline him or just determine what he’s doing?”

“I’ve been watching you from afar, Kat. You’re not the same woman who shared my bed. I’m limited when it comes to my own kind, and he’s devious and can hide himself from me.”

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the series! Let me know what you think of the possible cover.
