WHOOSH!

I have been missing my dad this week. Here is a photo of me (happy but a really ugly baby!) with my dad. He was such a light to my life and even though I do feel him around me, he is not physically here any more. However, it is my job now to live the dream of which he was a part.

Today we are expecting snow and I am thrilled. I think that I am the ONLY one that is thrilled, but how exciting to see the change of seasons. If we do indeed get snow, photographs will follow.
On Thursday I decided that leaves needed to be raked and so I spent a few hours outside doing hard physical labor. Boy am I out of shape!!!! My legs and arms are protesting vigorously.

This morning I am in my studio, taking care of the business end of Mayan Dream Productions. The red candle on my desk is lit. The hibiscus next to my desk is still blooming. The Emergence painting is on the wall right in front of my desk. The painting of NaHunTan is temporarily at the photographer so that Ilene Satala can get a GOOD photograph of this painting and begin to offer prints for sale (see my home page www.mayandream.com for the NaHunTan artwork by Ilene Satala and also the Emergence artwork by Ann Beeching. Links to get prints from the artist will be under each starting Monday, November 17. ) The photo that Conrad took of the jaguar and the deer emerging from a ritual fire in Santiago Atitlan is also right next to me....reminding me that there is world of spirit that is so much larger than anything that I can imagine and that anything is possible.

What kind of business stuff do I have to do? Renewing my website for the year.....preparing the package that goes to Discmakers for the remastered and enhanced Healing Music for the 21st century CD that will be available December 1....writing new descriptions for an organization that has my music on it's website store....filing shipped order forms...communicating with Soul/Deepbody music requests.....communicating with my website designer to add some links...writing out bills....communicating with Susan Stamm (awesome graphic design artist) for the marketing brochure for my Christmas special prices....the list goes on!

Remember....November 18th is the day that Daily OM is going to feature Emergence on their site. Remember also.....Vogue Mexican0/LatinaAmericana will have Mayan Dream/Dancers of the Flame in their December issue.

Even though I am missing my dad this week, life is very full and very wonderful. I am grateful to all of you for your incredible friendship energy. I am grateful that I was born as a musician.

Much love. Beverly.

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

Image
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
