Touched I have roamed the halls of hope And sauntered under sunny skies. I’ve marveled at the hands of statues And drank from ancient fountains. I’ve tasted the sun captured inside dried fruit And stained my lips with homemade wine Before sweetly falling asleep in the dark. In quiet courtyards where nuns have prayed I’ve ruminated in silence. I feel that God is still listening, his ear pressed against a wall, For the voices of our souls are meek, But in this place of impossible volume Prayers and sighs and little voices Are made to sparkle like opals. Lives blessed with poetry such as mine, Who naturally dwindle in melancholy, And appear to be intimate with the divine Are purposed to bring wisdom to folly. Such is the kingdom of the illumined, Those the backhand of God has made sacred and doomed.

I’m in a wide-open field where it seems like the Sun is almost always shining. It’s warm here under the trees. There are people everywhere. They’re playing Frisbee, tossing footballs, and sunbathing. Some are having a picnic and drinking a bottle or two of wine with their friends. Every now and again the cool breeze brings my way the scent of a very popular herb, transporting me to the summer of love (a time period I regret missing out on, but I really had no choice in the matter.). There are readers and writers and athletes and children with their grandparents. I even saw a man walking his cat in here one day. Skyscrapers rise in the distance just in case you lose yourself; forgetting you’re in the greatest city in the world. As I write this, a group of friends nearby are drinking beer, playing games, and screaming at each other in fierce but friendly competition. I’m unbothered. There are at least 300 people in this meadow today, and there is more than enough room for everyone. Even the little birds seem to have carved out their own little space. As I sit here in Central Park, Sheep Meadow to be exact, I’m presented with a glimpse of a better world.
The Moonlight and the Black Sea
Imagine, if you will, you are driving to a beach house. As you arrive you drive up the narrow gravel road and see a marvelous house in the distance. It’s a perfect sunny July afternoon. As you approach you notice the house looks a little worn from the salty air and the merciless storms the sea is sure to bring, but through it all it’s still standing in magnificence. Youexit your car and a friend greets you warmly at the front door and you’re invited in.

Lately, I’ve been receiving a lot of messages from my spirit guides about where we’re headed as a country and as humans; I don’t think you need to be psychic to know that it’s not in the best direction…but there is hope. They often repeat that we are living in a time when there is no more room for false personas and the masks that people wear to disguise their true selves must be removed. This is a time for illumination and reckoning they say, no big deal right?
Meet The Chakras
Chakras are something that I’m sure 80% of the population has heard about, but I bet a far smaller percentage know and understand what they are and their purpose. The Chakras are energy centers in our bodies. There are 7 main chakras and countless smaller ones. When working with them they are seen as different colored spinning balls of energy in specific places on the body. Each one influences different parts of the physical body, mind, emotions, and our spirituality. We’re so rooted in the physical world that we forget we are, in essence, energy. Any unbalanced energy in the chakras can result in physical illness over time, not to mention living an unbalanced life. Below is a simple and very helpful introduction to the chakras.
Listening To The Voice In Your Heart
Most of the exercises you will read about in this blog I received from my guides when channeling. For those of you who don’t know, channeling is when a person gets information from a source other than themselves. Some of the energies you can channel are your spirit guides, angels, universal energies, your higher self, the divine, and if you’re a Medium you can channel the spirits of people who have passed away. When I first began channeling I was going through an extremely difficult transition in my life. I had recently graduated college and moved home, trading the beautiful city of Manhattan for my own personal prison in suburbia. Like so many other college kids I was also utterly unemployed as well and had no idea where my life was going. In the midst of all this, I was faced with the gut wrenching realization that the on and off relationship I was so invested in for the last 3 ½ years was finally ending.
