Great Quote!

With all that's going on in life right now, this wisdom from Yeats makes me very happy:

"We taste and feel and see the truth. We do not reason ourselves into it."
– William Butler Yeats

Did you know that Yeats believed in Faeries - in fact, not only did he write "Fairy and Folk Tales of Ireland," but he is also mentioned in "The Fairy Faith in Celtic Countries" by W. Y. Evans Wentz; he saw them!

Faerie Workshop - Samhain (All Hallow's) 10/31

In preparation for the Faerie Workshop, here is a Prayer to raise your vibrations to their level:

PRAYER TO THE FAERIE KINGDOM
(Based on a prayer written by our Mystery School)

All Hail to the Faerie Queen of this land, and All Hail to those She loves!
All Hail to the great and powerful Kingdom of Faerie!
To you I offer my humble prayer:

Through your powers to bless, to nurture and to love, please adjust my sight that I might see you again. Help me to witness the magic in life. Let me remember what I already knew. Ignite within me the happy powers of Joy, Dance, Light and Color, Light and Life. Please grace me with the knowledge of your Presence. I humbly ask that you come back to me in unexpected ways.

All Hail to the Faerie Queen and to your Kingdom forever!
I thank you and praise you as I hail you, glorious and beautiful Shining Ones! Thank you for listening to my prayer.
May you flourish always and in all ways!
Blessings upon you in all your beauty and your Love!
“On Shee, On Shee, On Shee!”
(English pronunciation of Gaelic)
Peace, Peace, Peace
Om Shanti, Shanti Om

BTW, I have decided to reduce the fee for the faerie workshop on Saturday, Oct. 31st (Samhain). We will meet from 10:30 am - 6 pm, and the new price is: $126, which also makes a sacred "9". All else remains the same. Location and all other details provided upon registration. Please e-mail me: ravenkeyes@gmail.com with any questions, for more details, or to register. Blessings of Faerie Light to YOU!

Always ...

It's rather late; almost 1 am, and I am missing my sweet Mom. She has been gone for close to four months now. I really wish I could speak to her in person, and yet, I feel her around me and can reach her when I need to...isn't that amazing and wonderful?

I am not alone in this ability. We can always be in touch with those we love who are on the other side. It's just a matter of opening up and allowing...

If you are missing someone, close your eyes and breathe...listen and you will "hear" in ways you might not expect!

Confirmed PRIVATE time at Stonehenge!

I have been contacted by British Heritage, and it's official! Our May, 2010 Glastonbury, England Retreat WILL visit Stonehenge on May 2nd after regular hours for private time to ceremony and to just "be" with the stones! We will have the inner circle all to ourselves, with our personal guide, Peter Knight, in attendance. This is a great honor and a wonderful opportunity to awaken sleeping ancient memories. Under normal circumstances, visitors to Stonehenge must stand behind a fence and aren't allowed inside the stones. I envision great joy and power for all of us resulting from this wonderful gift!

Book Proposal-Day Two!

As I enter another day of working on the book proposal, I am moved to quote a very brave and influential sister of my heart:

"No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars or sailed an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit."
– Helen Keller

Abraham Lincoln

As I face the daunting task of writing a book proposal, I take heart and am inspired by the quote from our dear President Abraham Lincoln, when he said:

"I have an irrepressible desire to live till I can be assured that the world is a little better for my having lived in it."
– Abraham Lincoln

Thank you to the Universe for the state of Grace I find myself in. A Grace in which help rises to the surface from within my own Self, and from the world of my wonderful friends, the most important of which on this quest is none other than the beautiful author, Signe Pike!

Courage

I believe we must be brave enough to say "yes" to the things that make us happy!

Come to Glastonbury for YOUR very own SELF!
