 “A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don’t function as we were meant to. We break. We fall...

Summer Solstice – Mid Year, and Mid-Summer on the Summer Solstice – Mid Year, and Mid-Summer on the traditional Celtic calendar. It also represents Mid-Life, but you can be any age and contemplate what mid-life season means.

Being aware of the seasons is one way of understanding the shifts that occur within our body, psyche and spirit, especially when these shifts arrive through subtle dreams and longings.

At mid-life, it is time for women to free their throat chakra, to speak, express themselves. Men at mid-life are to open their heart chakra, to live through the heart. When the call to this is ignored or unheard, we reach a mid-life crisis – self-abandonment, which manifests in any number of ways.

At midlife, we face our own mortality. How should we face this realization? As the longest day wanes, we begin the descent into darkness again, until we meet the Winter Solstice.

The sun does not try to reach back into its youth or zenith, but keeps shining with whatever capacity it has, in full acceptance of its natural cycle.

Living fully in the moment is Midsummer’s biggest lesson.

Mid-Summer Questions:

Looking back at the first six months of the year, the months of expanding light and energy, do you see a theme evolving this year?

Before we enter the months of waning light and the inward journey, bring your awareness to the opportunities for growth that have come our way. Is there a focus you see emerging?

Blessed be!
Ten years ago, I knew nothing about book writing a Ten years ago, I knew nothing about book writing and even less about book publishing.

I sent the manuscript for my first book to a professional editor. He told me, “Nobody is going to publish an unknown author’s trilogy, write something else first.” But this thing was coming through with urgency, my muse was present and we were on fire to work together. I wrote about the Fae. My editor asked me… are you Irish? I wrote multiple POV. He said this was not a thing. So many discouragements. I was committed to the story as it poured out of me. I was in deep smit with my characters. They showed up so authentically, I couldn’t abandon them.

When inspiration shows up, follow it down every dark alley to the bones of its origin. It arrives when it does, and a writer must be willing to commit to it.

Honor what wants to be birthed through you. There is no one else on the planet who can write it from your perspective, your life experience and your imagination.

Accept good advice but listen to your intuition.

Create for the sake of creativity, meet your muse with intention.

The more I study Lilith's mythology, that of the s The more I study Lilith's mythology, that of the serpent, and the religions of the patriarchy, the more I notice how deeply we have been initiated into the fear of snakes and women's sovereignty.

My fear of snakes wasn't just relayed through the stories told me by Catholicism, it is cell deep, within my DNA, something I feared instinctively but had no idea why, as a child.

Its a lifetime of deconstruction, of meeting Lilith again and again, of cross-referencing
myth after myth from several cultures, of re-visiting folklore which is showing me the centuries old deception. 

Lilith, the serpent & woman, the unholy trinity, caused the downfall of mankind. 

Let us be free of this nonsense.
