The chapter of the wood snake has closed & in its place, the fire horse. A new moon and solar eclipse also signal that a significant shifting of timelines, and faster moving energy, is upon us. May we all make the most of this special time

Buddhism, though arising from a very different context, shares the internal truth of Christ Consciousness via mettā - the deliberate cultivation of a boundless heart. In this spirit, may we listen, forgive, & care for one another✨🎄🕊️

“In this world
Hate never yet dispelled hate.
Only love dispels hate.
This is the law,
Ancient and inexhaustible.”

In gratitude, the mind bows to the present moment and the heart expands beyond scarcity

This heart-centered energy is not something to seek out externally. It flows naturally when we remember how much we’ve already been given

Mystics have long known that this is an opportune time to connect with spirit, regain wisdom + insights from ancestors + your own past lives.
Other times when the veil thins include:
mid-spring, eclipses, & transitions.

If you know how to put your heart in God, you can rest there always & still play in the world. It will no longer be a hell to you, but a beautiful playground."
