HEART OF SKY…..track two of Wisdom Ablaze was captured in this sky photograph © Beverly. This last week I gave a copy of Wisdom Ablaze to my friend who cleans our carpets.  He has a fire pit in his back yard and spent three hours Thursday evening, in his words "Jammin' at the fire pit with Wisdom Ablaze. This is the livingness of this powerful music. CD Baby (based in Portland, Oregon) is now advertising Wisdom Ablaze on it's website:   "We here at CD Baby have got pretty good memories. And we just remembered that at some point in the not-too-distant past you purchased music by Beverly Rieger.    We commend your impeccable musical taste and wanted to let you know that Beverly Rieger has a brand new release out now. It just went live on our website for sale. And we just had to let you know FIRST since you're one of the few hip and wise people who "knew them way back when.   It is called Wisdom Ablaze. "     Here is the link to a beautiful n...

I love Autumn in Indiana.   We have the most beautiful colors and the crisp air of the first frost to revel in! I took the photo on your right as I looked down from the top of a dune in Fox Island onto Retta in the dappled sunlight.  Notice the pink rays of the sun.  Hmmm...isn't that amazing! The second photo was captured as I looked up into the trees in the late afternoon as the sun was illuminating the golden leaves.  They were brilliant in the sunshine. Looking down....looking up....seeing wisdom manifesting in profound beauty in ways that I often do not see.  I can be focused only on the things that are right in front of me....not seeing the larger picture.  Can anyone else relate to that?? Retta is the one who brings me into these walks, and brings me into the larger vision so often.     This is Wisdom Ablaze! in all of nature.                ...

It's such a beautiful morning in Fort Wayne.  The full moon is shining in a soft warm air...while a few clouds are blown across the moonlit sky.  The leaves on the silver maple are just starting to turn and in the moonlight, some are glowing red...all are glowing silver on their undersides. It's mid-October and we are expecting 83 degrees for the high today.  Because of the warm Autumn, all of our flowers are still in full bloom, and also glowing in the moonlight. As usual, I have my trusty cup of coffee at hand as I write Musings this morning.  Retta is keeping me company on the nearby couch.....soundly sleeping in doggy contentment. What will this week bring?  There are two new music videos coming in the mid-week.  One of them features the photos that I took of the forest trees that inspired the first track of Wisdom Ablaze .  So, you can watch the video, listen to the music of We Call Forth Wisdom , and experience the forest impacting you w...

Why has the new music of Wisdom Ablaze been created?  Why would you want to purchase and listen to the music of Wisdom Ablaze? Well........These are really difficult times in our world. Our world is struggling to find it's center.  We need strength, joy, compassion, love in our lives in a special way at this time in our world.  We can make a difference! Most of us have experienced the beautiful place of joy, love, compassion many times in our lives, and we have extended these wisdom qualities to other around us.  This is so important NOW.  And....my music supports your powerful ability for good in this lifetime. Listen to this new music of Wisdom Ablaze and let it support you!   This is my desire for all of you, and my own way of making a difference in our world towards wholeness. The one thing that surprised me in my own music was that Wisdom Ablaze is the peaceful, gentle music that it is.  The fire that is wisdom is not a destructive f...

Hello everyone…..I now have republished a Facebook page for Mayan Dream Productions and my new Wisdom Ablaze album.  My Facebook name is mayandream.16. Yesterday I approved the physical proof of Wisdom Ablaze, and so it is now in production and will be here next week….estimated date October 12.  Hooray!

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 ...
