Music and Art and Hot Coffee!

Here is an image from the summer of last year....a bridge over flowing water...surrounded by the green of the heart and the life force of the tree....going into the unknown.

I am sitting in my office...in the February sunshine...Ancient/Future Symphony is playing...The artwork of Emergence (Ann Beeching's art), Mayan Dream/Dancers of the Flame (Ilene Satala's art), Heart of Sky/Heart of Earth (Ann Beeching's art) and The Journey of Joy (Ilene Satala's art) surround me. The graceful sculpture by Patricia Crane of the filly Prelude is with me on my desk...keeping me company, along with the beautiful indigenous pottery of Judy Madlem, and the carving by Nicolas that is Maria holding the new life. Greg Beck's photography of the Mayan lands graces the wall right outside my office with a profound spiritual energy....the wall is literally pulsing!

Mother Earth is so blessed to have artists...sculptors...photographers....musicians....bringing that special life force that ensouled art IS in it's essence. She (Mother Earth) needs this outpouring during these years of her healing.

I am so blessed to have this level of support around me, giving me ongoing life as I live in the world as musician, writer and teacher! Thank you to the many, many who bring their support to my life...and whose names I have not mentioned in this Musing. You are so many, and I am so grateful.

Today is Monday, and so that means paying attention to the paperwork that is so much a part of being a business. I have filed, and written, and generally taken care of those details which are necessary for music to come forward.

My car is in the repair shop and that outer event is keeping me close to home today. So....I have been gifted with time for gentle quiet as I work. No temptation to go to the store, or visit, or anything else....just time for me and my music. My hot cup of coffee is near at hand, and there is a very large pot of ham and beans on the stove for this evening.

My youngest son and his wife are both PhD's in Physics. This week they are visiting Switzerland and the CERN Laboratory for Particle Physics...the largest in the world. I know that these two talented and wonderful young people have come forward for a very special purpose in their lifetime, and it probably revolves around physics. Another help for this Mother Earth!

We are more than half-way through February. Spring emergence is very close....what will life bring with this new and powerful energy? The adventure continues!

Love to all.

In the Natural Timing of Things

Hi everyone..... Two weeks ago I recorded the final 10 minutes of the Wisdom Ablaze album, received the digital CD for the artwork of the cover (Ann Beeching original) and the music master is ready to go to National Media. It is part of a three CD series on Wisdom. The Wisdom music began with the album " A Celebration of Life and Love " which was released in 2012.  The third track is called Wisdom, and this album explores the various aspects of living in the warmth of Wisdom Fire:  Dancing in Lightness of Spirit, Sacred Voice, Woven in Gentleness, and A Gentle Touch.  Track three, Wisdom, emerges from Track one: At The Cave, and Track two:  Sunrise. A year later, I completed Wisdom Enters The World In Love . This powerful music again brings the place of the Wisdom Cave (Track one), the Wisdom Mountain (track two)….both sacred places of birth…..then we have the aspects of Wisdom:  (track four) Wisdom Dances the Waters, (track five)Her Gentle Voice, (track six) Fire With

Music supports the world around me

Several weeks ago I received a phone call from a hospice nurse in Honolulu. She had a patient who was dying and listening to The Beloved was the only thing that could calm her down. She later called to say that this person had died peacefully while listening to The Beloved. That is why I do what I do. Creating and performing the music that comes to me is not done to sell music and make sales, but to bring into the world a quality of beauty and connection into the individual's inner world that is transformative. The ducks in this photo were hatched right outside of my mom's front window. The mother duck came out of the marshes to build her nest where mom could see it every day. Aren't they cute! It's amazing the beauty and the joy in nature. My mom is going through an important journey in her life right now, and family is very supportive of her in this time of transition. Thus, you are not hearing as much from me, but we are alive and well. Mayan Dream Producti

The Journey

This photo was taken in a nature preserve in Indiana and it is now covered in snow. We are under a winter storm warning...expecting another "many" inches of snow and it is beautiful. I loved this path because it reminds me of Copan, Honduras. I chose this photo for today's Musings because it calls forth the journey into the unknown which is my life and yours. The economic news yesterday was very bleak.. a couple of million people without work and without health insurance. Many millions more without enough work to actually buy enough food and to pay for the basics of life. The stock market falling....companies closing or downsizing. The political news was bleak....war.....terror....poverty across the world. And yet.....the unknown journey continues. We don't know really what this means. The planet is massively shaking off one form of living life based on an outer and inner masculine structure that created an artificial and very destructive life. The sacred femi
