Nighttime Alive!

We had rain last week and now the frogs are back! As usual, I am in my office writing with my hot and delicious cup of coffee at hand, and the windows wide open to the night. It is only 3:30AM here, so the night life is in full swing. Loud is the song of peepers, and larger frogs, and crickets and all sorts of other life forms that I can't identify. Their concert is absolutely gorgeous.

It is the beginning of a new work week. Much of my time today will be spent outside in the midst of the concert of the night, and the concert of the day, as I prepare for the week to unfold.

FREE LINK for EDGEWALKER music: 8:33 minutes. On Wednesday, the music of EDGEWALKER will be found on the homepage of this website. It will be free for your download.
From silence....the electronic OM builds.....the Mayan flute is played by the ancients through my own lips...intensity grows with the realization of support from the unseen world. Flat drum echoes the sounds of nature's night chorus.....action is ignited...the journey into the unknown and the courage to walk the edge of our comfort zone and into the new places of our lives. And finally....a melody of loving.

The EDGEWALKER music was written during an exceptionally busy time in my life, and in the same year as The Journey of Joy. I have found that music does not come because I have extra time, but it comes in its own timing and often when my outer schedule is super busy. When I stay in the natural flow of life, none of this is difficult. Instead, it is life-renewing. This all connects then to the very serious events of this last week...the grief, horror, courage, love....may all be brought into the flow and weaving of love. Love to all.

Edgewalker is such a great theme. In ecology, edges are a very special place, where the greatest diversity of life thrives.

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 ...

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...
