Spirited Kidz: Wiccans face intimidation at school

By Leave a Comment
circle

Dear Nadine, I'm a practicing Wiccan and some kids in school are making life hell. They say stuff about what I wear and how witches were burnt in the past. They say I better watch out. Sometimes I feel so intimidated, I don't want to go to school. Sometimes I just want to get even - with a black spell. Help! -- Sam Dear Sam, While high school should be fun -- it's a place to make friends, try new experiences and study interesting subjects -- for some kids, school sucks. They've been … [Read more...]

Spirited Kidz Dear Nadine, What do you think about using crystals and gemstones and would they work with my spirited kid? -- Crazy-4-Crystals Mum, Mankato, MN Dear Crazy-4-Crystals Mum, Shakespeare said, "All that glisters is not gold" and he was right! Sometimes it takes a crystal to add some sparkle to our lives.

Last night I had a feeling...when the kids came back from their Dad's, which was really a weekend with their Grandma, sugary candy bags half eaten spilling out of their hands. I knew this was not going to go well, like hitting a brick wall with a tiny car at 60 mph. Myself recovering from a four-hour drive and a great weekend at a cabin with girlfriends coming to a rapid close. Back to reality with a BAM! Ah, but today is a new day! It just happens to be Monday. Suffering from an … [Read more...]

"When you let go of who you want your child to be, and just let her be who she was meant to be, she will flourish, and you will come to realize she's perfect just the way she is." - Rev. Karen Taff My life's work has shifted to helping parents and others understand that children diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder ("ASD") also come with gifts. Too often, parents of a child with this diagnosis assume that success in life for their child is out of reach, or will be marginal at best. … [Read more...]

I see a nation of hurting people. Husbands and wives not talking to each other as they struggle to pay the bills each month. Military men and women killing themselves at rates never seen before. College graduates unable to find work, and high school graduates not able to afford college or find work. ¶ Our first impulse is to blame somebody. Our second impulse is to forget that all of this is happening and turn on the TV. My impulse is to think about the minority without a voice -- the … [Read more...]

The Inner Sound Board: Sorting Out Your Inner Voices

By Leave a Comment

I'm frequently asked how I do my version of psychic astrology, in which I combine the language of the stars with past-life information and input from Spirit Guides, spirits of the deceased and Ascended Masters and Teachers. A few years ago I began practicing astrology without any psychic input. I was doing good work, but it was all from my brain, which couldn't possibly reflect all of me. When my psychic opening began, shortly after opening my practice, everything changed, and I set about … [Read more...]
