Starting the Year in Chaos: A Spiritual Battle, the Armor of God, and Writing Through the Storm

This was initially to be included at the end of this post, but it is far too important to make a footnote out of it: All of us here at the Twin Tree Project send love, prayers, and support to those affected by the terror attack in New Orleans, our heart home, yesterday. New OrleansContinue reading "Starting the Year in Chaos: A Spiritual Battle, the Armor of God, and Writing Through the Storm"

The Year of the 9: Embracing Change and the Practice of Letting Go

As we move into 2025, a universal “9” year in numerology, the energy of endings and beginnings will shape our lives in profound ways. Spiritually, the number 9 signifies the completion of cycles, the wisdom gained from experience, and the courage to release what no longer serves us. This year, more than ever, we’ll findContinue reading "The Year of the 9: Embracing Change and the Practice of Letting Go"

Rising and Ascending: Shifting Perspectives for the Coming Year

The higher we rise in our perspective, the clearer we see—not just our own path, but the connections that guide and shape us. (An inspired thought from morning meditation) This morning, I reflected on the importance of self-awareness and growth as we step into a new year. Now, I’d like to build on that idea,Continue reading "Rising and Ascending: Shifting Perspectives for the Coming Year"

When the Sting Comes: Wisdom and Love for 2025

When I was a kid, my father was a beekeeper. Stings were inevitable—especially for a curious, stubborn, fearless kid like me. I suppose God knew my dad would need a little extra wisdom, so He blessed him with plenty of good, old-fashioned common sense. And when it came to bee stings, my dad’s solution wasContinue reading "When the Sting Comes: Wisdom and Love for 2025"

The Journey to Self: Why Focusing on You Is the Key to True Connection

A few days ago I came across a quote that deeply resonated with my experience over the last few years: When they said she was going crazy…She was Awakening. When they said she was isolating…She was Healing. When they said she was acting funny…She was Growing. When they said that she changed…She was Evolving. WhenContinue reading "The Journey to Self: Why Focusing on You Is the Key to True Connection"

Sunday Sessions: The Paradox of Past and Future — Healing While Moving Forward

This morning, I find myself reflecting on the paradox of time—the way the past, present, and future weave together to shape who we are and who we are becoming. This paradox—this tug-of-war between honoring the past and releasing it—has been heavy on my heart as we close out this year and look toward the next.Continue reading "Sunday Sessions: The Paradox of Past and Future — Healing While Moving Forward"

The Practice of Happiness: A Foundational Principle for 2025

As we enter a new year, it’s almost impossible to escape the tidal wave of resolutions. Everywhere, people are declaring what they won’t do, how they’ll “fix” themselves, and which habits they’ll break. This collective focus on lack—on what must be eliminated, avoided, or overcome—perpetuates the very energies of woundedness and insufficiency that many areContinue reading "The Practice of Happiness: A Foundational Principle for 2025"

When God Says “No”

We’ve all heard the saying: “God always answers, even when the answer is no.” Sometimes, you’ll hear it in more digestible, encouraging words, like, “Rejection is protection,” a common motto among the “new age” community. For years, I heard it too, but it never really resonated. I didn’t truly understand it until I experienced oneContinue reading "When God Says “No”"

Solar Return 46: Threadbare Elegy

The profound nature of art and truth is that what’s meant to be about someone else often feels like it’s written just for us, holding a mirror to our own soul. That’s the gift of true connection—even the darker ones we share as souls. I think that’s part of what agape love truly is: notContinue reading "Solar Return 46: Threadbare Elegy"
