Spring in the air

Even though it is still only January, I have a sense of spring in the air already.  Long-tailed tits arrived in my garden yesterday, and the resident birds are becoming more vocal and active as they explore potential nesting sites.  Snowdrops and daffodils are starting to bloom, even though we are high above sea level, […]

Being weary (2)

I wrote yesterday about the important work you are doing as soul and being to help the people and place of Haiti, and how this can leave you feeling intensely tired, depleted.  Please remember, however, that you can request a night off! Sometimes the world of Spirit, which includes that part of you which is […]

Being weary

A number of people I have talked to recently have told me how tired they are - exhausted to the bone.  While the earth's energetic changes will account for this to a certain degree, if your weariness has become more pronounced in the last couple of weeks, then it is very likely it is because […]

My new venture

My friend and colleague Semele was able to be with me yesterday for the first time since before Christmas due to the weather. I have been able to do very little with my website since my accident apart from write my Commentaries when I can, and so it was particularly helpful to have her help, […]

Expectations

The political situation in America is a wonderful example of how, with expectation, comes disappointment.  A year ago, when Obama was inaugurated as president, not just Americans but many world observers believed that social change of great magnitude would transform the consciousness of humanity as a result of the election of this visionary black president.

stars and spiritual humour

My Commentary yesterday on the power, beauty and significance of the stars and planets resulted in a number of private comments to me about how apposite the words were for some of you.   For me, this was summed up when I received a round-robin e-mail today about nutrition from someone I hardly know, at the […]

Starlight

Every night, weather permitting, I walk in the lane beyond my home before going to bed.  For some time now I have been struck by the beauty and intensity of the stars and planets: they have a power which I have not felt before, and they are transmitting messages.  Sometimes, indeed, they are visible as […]

Haiti 3

In my last Commentaries I talked about the importance of choice, and the intent behind the choosing, particularly with reference to the healers and helpers involved in the Haiti earthquake and its aftermath.  Now it is the time for the Haitians themselves, individually and as a group, to decide how they will respond to their […]

Choices and intent

I talked yesterday about how the developed world has the opportunity to choose if and how far to help the people and land of Haiti.  Behind every choice made lies intent: if the intent behind a seemingly altruistic act is for personal advantage, then, karmically, the altruism is negated.  If a choice is well intended […]

God and Haiti

The Archbishop of York was asked on the radio today why God allowed the Haiti earthquake to happen.  His answer, to me, was unclear and unconvincing. I have my own explanation. Ours is a planet of choice.  Every person who lives and dies on Haiti has chosen to be there in the way they are […]
