Hawaii Maolis – we LOVE our mountains….LOVE them – even the dormant ones.
The photo is of Kilauea, and the deity is none other than the one that the world knows the very most about – The Goddess of the Volcano – Madame Pele.
Most of us Maolis call her “Mama Pele” and mostly “Tutu Pele” and either way it matters. Respect is a big deal to #AllUsGuys…respect….Maolis everywhere are BIG on it, no matter which island nation we originate from. It doesnʻt matter. The thing that we are the most aware of is respect, and more than that, the other thing that we are MORE aware of is blatant DISrespect.

Good morning and a Happy Mothers Day to everyone. Have a beautiful day! Peace be with you.

Mettañca sabbalokasmi,
mānasaṃ bhāvaye aparimāṇaṃ:
Uddhaṃ adho ca tiriyañca,

With good will for the entire cosmos,
cultivate a limitless heart:
Above, below, & all around,
unobstructed, without hostility or hate.
Sutta Nipāta 1.150
Translated from Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
Happy Mother’s Day to Moms of all types out there, whether you’re doing it on your own, a Dad pulling double duty, Mom to furbabies, or even a more traditional Mom. After having the Empress card yesterday, I wondered how could we equal, or top it…the Strength card fits the bill. When we think of Mom, we typically think of an incredibly strong individual who has been our rock and our support system, no matter our age. Soft control comes to mind here. One does not need to be bossy or confrontational in a situation, and Moms everywhere have a tendency to use these methods of persuasion to keep the peace and control outcomes.
On the flip side, there are those who find themselves in situations which, ifone is trying to keep the peace, they feel they must bite their tongue and refrain from verbalizing what they are really…

A new commitment is blossoming at the time of the New Moon in Taurus. Talk about giving birth to a new phase! Exchanging ideas with the right people can heighten creativity to the max and prove to be very fruitful indeed. In some way, however, you still feel stifled, as there is so much more you wish to be and do. Accept the new beginnings which are coming your way at this time and use them to aid in your search of all that you desire.
You are seeing things differently now, especially with regard to your past and how you would go about manifestation. There is much more clarity available to you, and through this clarity, you are able to free yourself from any type of restraints by the New Moon in September. What you begin now may take time to bring to complete fruition, likely due to the…

Kalyāṇamitto yo bhikkhu, sappatisso sagāravo;
Karaṃ mittānaṃ vacanaṃ, sampajāno patissato;
Pāpuṇe anupubbena, sabbasaṃyojanakkhayaṃ.
When a bhikkhu has good friends, and is reverential and respectful;
Doing what one’s friends advise, clearly comprehending and mindful;
One may progressively attain the destruction of all fetters.

What are your life experiences that you have overcome?

Whether you’re an experienced farmer or completely new to the world of gardening, medicinal herbs offer a unique growing experience. In this article, you’ll learn the steps you need to take to create a living herbal apothecary outside your door. If you have the land to cultivate and would like to grow your own herbs, start right here.
Gardening begins with the soil; it’s the “ground of our being,” to borrow a phrase. If you take care of the soil, the soil, in turn, will nourish and feed the plants you grow for healing and health.
An important first step in growing outdoors is to find what kind of soil you have. Take a handful of soil from a couple different places in your yard or on your land, make sure each one is somewhat moist, squeeze it gently in your fist, and…

An antipruritic is a substance that relieves itching. Antipruritic herbs can be helpful for contact dermatitis or any other itchy skin condition. These are most helpful when used externally—consider an antipruritic bath the next time you get poison ivy! Antipruritic herbs include calendula, oats, liquorice, and chickweed.
Chickweed is best known for its soothing and healing quality, and has been used traditionally as an external remedy for cuts, wounds, minor burns, abscesses and skin irritations, especially such as itching, dryness and irritation due to dermatitis, eczema or psoriasis.The high saponin content of this herb is thought to be the reason for its effectiveness in relieving skin problems It can even improve the appearance of scars and wrinkles!

Seeding is our favorite form of propagation. A seed is a repository for all the genetic diversity of the ancient wildness of these potent medicinals. When you are looking for medicine in a herb, you want to use the purest, strongest strain of the species you can get; in other words, you want the original, unchanged, wildest form available. So you will not, in most cases, choose a hybrid, which is indicated by a multiplication sign between a plant’s genus and species name or by a proper name within single quotes, like ‘Jenny’. And you won’t choose varieties developed for a wide array of flower colors or disease resistance. Seeds of unselected, wilder species will give you the full range of biodiversity possible for the herb – which makes it perfect for use as herbal medicine.
Most of the herbs featured on this website can be easily sown from seed…

Hello, everyone, and Happy Thursday. Enjoy this beautiful day. Peace be with you.
This image of the Sun card has always been one of my favorite cards ever, from the Gilded Tarot, which is one of my favorite decks ever. It conjurs up thoughts reminiscent of the 90’s TV classic, ‘Third Rock from the Sun’. There we are Mother Earth, dependent upon this fireball of a being, to provide us life on a daily basis as we orbit. The Sun is what brings us our vitality, not only is it life-giving, but it imparts feeling of positivity, when one is exposed to its rays in safe amounts. Conversely, without it, it is very easy for one to be down and depressed.
When the Sun shines on you, you are basking in its favors and good things are bound to happen. It is even possible to have a little fun along the way. Today has a very positive vibe, so be sure to soak…

“Knowledge of processes in the background early shaped my relationship to the world. Basically, that relationship was the same in my childhood as it is to this day.
As a child I felt myself to be alone, and I am still, because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know.
Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible. The loneliness began with the experiences of my early dreams, and reached its climax at the time I was working on the unconscious.
If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely.
But loneliness is not necessarily inimical to companionship, for no one is more sensitive to companionship than the lonely man, and companionship thrives only when each individual remembers his individuality and does not identify himself with others.”
– Carl Jung, “Memories, Dreams, and Reflections”
