weeping willows transport us to a time before
when we spent our days dreaming exploring playing
they listen to our secrets offer wisdom and invite us to hide and seek
they bend, twist and turn playfully enchanting us to do the same
beautiful but full of melancholy they assure us that with every end there is a new beginning…
the changing of the seasons often marks a kind of beginning
one that, for me, involves a balance of letting go and holding on
in the fall, the trees rich with color remind me to look forward
but as the leaves begin to fall to also let go
exposed naked raw
the trees reach deep below to their roots for strength to stand tall
and high above to the moon for the promise that change, a new beginning and new growth is soon to come…
so i too reach for my own roots and my own moon
and invite you to do the same
finding strength in where we have been standing tall in who we are now and looking forward to where we are going
the door is open the bird is free but still, she does not fly
the crescent moon is calling to her, inviting her to embrace the change that is on the way
but she is not quite ready to accept the moon’s invitation
and so, the moon waits whimsically patiently
until
she is ready to fly
it filled in the beauty lightened the darkness and made me believe in so much more than what seemed possible
on september 27th, i watched as it filled the dark sky the blood moon a super moon eclipsed by the earth’s shadow turning it to blood
a symbol of the soul passing through the darkness and illuminated in a brilliant cascade of deep reds
strong wise revered loved
nurturers thinkers mindful of all things
but still at risk
they remind us to hope inspire us to be great but most importantly to reflect on our humanity— our capacity to cause harm but our even greater capacity for good

otherworldly mystical magical
messengers of protection and perception
they capture our attention inspire our imaginations and remind us to not only sharpen our physical eyes but also our spiritual ones
so that when we are lost we can be found
to give is what we do when we love
the more we love truly love
the more we give and the more we give of our bodies, minds and hearts
the more we are open to love true love with each other with ourselves
the peace tree home to the om sacred thought to be the sound of the universe the vibration of us always moving always changing always breathing as one
shanti a call for peace swings from the branches
om shanti shanti shanti an invocation for peace peace of mind body spirit
the flower of life found me at a time of deep loss and awakening considered by many as sacred geometry,
its beauty and power lies in the way each petal is evenly-spaced and connected in perfect symmetry
a symbol of our universal and spiritual connection to each other and the planet earth
its discovery, once again opened my heart to friendship and love new and old
whimsical luminous larger than life
a messenger of change renewal discovery
she inspires wonder curiosity
and dares us
to dig into build up and rediscover ourselves
“Rather than just add something to the existing buildings, I also wanted to add something to the lakefront…I have therefore worked to infuse the building with a certain sensitivity to the culture of the lake—the boats, the sails and the always-changing landscape…I hope that…[I] have designed not a building, but a piece of the city.”~Santiago… Read the rest “the milwaukee skyline”
