Dreaming back my Sisters

Della Ratcliffe's avatarInner Journey Events Blog

As part of my work and development in shamanism and other mysteries, I am journeying with my guides to reveal my magical or spiritual names… These are often secret, kept to our heart, but some people choose to use them publicly, especially in ritual or healing work, spellcraft, and journeys.

The names vary as much as the people choosing them but often are reflective of the gifts and skills we use in our work, and how we align with our spiritual allies such as Mama Moon, Father Sky and Mama Earth.

I came across this delightful poem by Maria Elena Gaspari about Dreaming back our Sisters…. and which happens to have wonderful magical names which may be an inspiration for some of you.

Some of these names are specific — or at least to the Divine Feminine within us — but many will appeal to the Divine Masculine — and…

A (Partial) Tour of the West Coast, Vol. 2: Paul Bunyan, Ireland’s Rustic Lodges, Panther’s Den Pizza and a Gold Beach Sunset

Paul Bunyan and the Trees of Mystery, Klamath, California

Between our first night in Eureka, California and Gold Beach, Oregon, we had hoped to stop and ride the gondola through the Trees of Mystery in Klamath, California. We did stop but we didn’t stay. We had lollygagged enough that day. It was going to be about $30 for us to have to hike through the park on a tour, then ride the gondola back. We estimated it would be at least an hour stop. So, we checked out the large statue of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Big Blue Ox, listened to the invisible man in the Paul Bunyan statue call over his loud speaker, welcoming guests and talking directly to them – it was really funny! So, we took some pictures, utilized their clean restroom and hit the road.

The Art of Allowing by Nicky Hamid — Love Has Won

By Nicky Hamid, 06/26/2016

The Art of Allowing-

Intro. Get out of your own way. You are a Divine Being at one in and One with the Source of All That Is. Pure Essence of Soul that you are……… in other words YOU are transitioning to fully enter into your Heart, and your body form to merge and blend, to be a Radiant Presence at Home in HUman expression.There is absolutely no way your ‘little” mind can either comprehend or control any of it. Who do you think you are.  What to do as the Shift in you is unfolding. Let us first remember that there is nothing that you need to know or to accomplish in any mindy way. That illusionary way is done and over with. Of course some prefer to use their mind, to extend and stretch it like exercising your body. And some are far more at home with feeling and intuiting their knowing. One way is not better than the other. It is more important to play and experiment. It is not anymore about coming to a conclusion about anything. It is about exploring and discovering and sharing. It is not about agreeing or disagreeing with others.  It is about being at home with your journey and opening to other ways of seeing. It is about the joy in the light of our own discoveries and the discoveries of others rather than the acquisition of a discovery itself. And for heaven’s sake don’t take yourself so seriously. Apart from Lovingness, the single most important thing you can do is practice your ALLOWmanship. I share, from time to time, little reminders about allowing. Things we all know but are still opening up to as a continuous dynamic in our conscious Beingness such that it becomes a flowing backdrop to all we do.  Shine On! Love You

**********************************

PS:  I am not telling you what to do or how to be You. How could I?I am a Brother whose simple mission here on FB is to key into and share some flavours and tastes of our Collective journey, pointing to what works for me and has worked for others I have had the honour to serve, and Loving you with all my Heart.Each and everyone of you is unique and bring that special gift of You which makes the HUman journey a whole and complete expression of Divine Light.

Saffron Rice

My neighbor, Drew, brought back a GRIP of saffron (as well as several other herbs and spices) from the Middle East on his last visit.  SCORE!

This saffron made a gorgeous rice, which was center-carb at our niece’s graduation party a couple of weeks back.  I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

IMG_4888Saffron Rice

1 cup long grain rice
1 1/2 cups plus 1/4 water (filtered if you have poor water quality)
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 onion, diced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cube/teaspoon vegetable or chicken bullion
salt to taste

Bring 1/4 cup of water to a boil.  Remove from heat and stir saffron into water.  Set aside.

In a saucepan on medium heat, melt butter and olive oil together.  Stir in onion and sprinkle with a little salt.  Stir in rice to coat and let cook 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until rice begins…

Kofta Kebabs

This kebab is a beautiful and aromatic blend of lamb, beef, herbs and spices.  And, it’s easy to prepare in advance, freeze and grill as needed.  In fact, I recommend freezing them so that the meat sticks well to the skewer.  Fair warning though – our first “test batch” of these kebabs were gobbled up in no time flat.  I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we did!

IMG_5205Kofta Kebabs

 

1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground lamb
6 cloves garlic, finely minced
½ onion, grated
½ cup fresh chopped parsley
¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon freshly ground coriander
½ teaspoon freshly ground cumin
1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
½ teaspoon paprika
¾ bread crumbs

Soak 20 bamboo skewers in water.  Combine all ingredients until well combined.  Weigh out in 2 ounce…

There is WHAT in my water?

I like to think I’m a label reader when it comes to shopping but sometimes it takes a bored, back-seat kid to point out what you clearly missed.  But I missed it for good reason: who knew I’d have to read the label on my drinking water?!?  Here is a photo of the label from Kirkland drinking water.  I’m baffled that the ingredient list doesn’t end with “purified water”.

Eat Well!

We Are All Indigenous

We Are All Indigenous

Since I put out the call for “Caucasian Males above the age of 21” to stand up for their states of Union and assert “unimpeachable” claims on the land, I have had no end of ignorant people calling me up in a white hot lather about that, with all sorts of ugly assumptions in hand.

Just remember that the first part of “assumption” is “ass”.

Obviously, I am a woman, so I have no reason to like the idea that “only” males can do this. And also, obviously, I am color blind, so I have no reason to like the idea of “white only” as well.

The fact is that the treaties and agreements that need to be exercised to claim the land mass of this country were all written back in the 1700-1800s and the only people who had legal standing back…

It Finally Opened!

The second year my former Bird of Paradise Gigantis bloomed … this was my office plant in my Downtown San Francisco office years ago. She’s in the care of my oldest student and dear friend, Trish Lee. Here’s her blog about this amazing plant. Enjoy! It is truly magnificent.

I just had to share – this white bird of paradise gigantis was gifted to me from our dear friend Victoria at The Halau nearly a decade ago.  For a while it was a very manageable sized plant that lived out front in a pot.  Then, deciding it needed more room to grow, I put it in the ground.  It grew by leaps and bounds and even became a great stabilizing plant for my grape vine (maybe that’ll produce grapes someday).  But after many years in the ground, and its height reaching nearly two stories now, I just wasn’t sure if it would ever bloom.  Recently, due to HOA landscaping guidelines, I needed to give it a good trimming back, which included removal of a lot of the little baby plants around the shallow root system.  I knew the plant was in a little shock but was doing just fine.
