Samhain

(October 31st -Nov 1st)
also known as: Halloween, ShadowFest, Martinmas, Old Hallowmas

The Last Harvest. The Earth nods a sad farewell to the God. We know that He will once again be reborn of the Goddess and the cycle will continue. This is the time of reflection, the time to honor the Ancients who have gone on before us and the time of 'Seeing" (divination) . As we contemplate the Wheel of the Year, we come to recognize our own part in the eternal cycle of Life.

America's Most Haunted

The Whaley House in San Diego has been called the most haunted place in America. More spectral sightings have been seen in and around the 100 plus year old house and former courthouse than any other landmark in the US.

Recently, while visiting the area, I made the trip to check out the supernatural happenings at The Whaley House. Armed with my trusty digital camera to catch orbs and perhaps a manifestation (one could only hope), I was not prepared for what actually happened.

While on the second floor landing I was causally looking into the bedroom of the former residents, and at once I felt fingertips on the back of my neck under my name of hair. A strong, yet playful tapping on my nape--that seemed to say to me, "Hey! I'm here!" I spun around but I was all alone on the staircase. Later, I found out that this is the area where the ghosts are the most 'active'.

Was this indeed an otherwordly experience or a fruitful imagination. Wanting to believe in things that go bump in the night and at the same time--hoping against hope, it's just folk lore.

The Whaley House keeps its secrets still to this day. Halloween is the time of year, the veil gets thinner and the Ghosts come out to play.

Karma and The Law of Attraction

Well, I guess the Secret is out! Everyone knows "The Secret"....Books, TV shows, Movies, Seminars....Secret Parties (now how ya gonna come IF its a 'secret'?)

It's really just a new spin on the old "What goes around, comes around"..."Do unto Others" and "Be careful what you Ask for" that we were all taught in the first grade. But neatly packaged, it has become the new darling of New Age mantras. Suddenly everyone knows the Secret.

All good stuff. However, it is amazing to me how some people can read all they can about the Law of Attraction and not apply it to their own lives. Sort of like " I can take all the good stuff from this, and when it comes to paying attention to the universal laws of negativity (remember: like seeks like) I don't have to that"

We all ultimately created our own realities. How we view our world and ourselves and relate to others will greatly determine our success and our failures.

It's time to confront the demons in our souls, recognize them and banish them to the shadows where they belong. Get on with living life, encumbered from hatred and jealousy.

Now That not a secret at all.
