12 Ways to Identify Past Life Lovers, Friends, or Enemies
We’d been at this angry impasse for days. Finally, a thought came to me and I spat: “You know, if we don’t work this out now, we’ll have to come back as a man and woman, get married, and share a checkbook!”
At that point, the thought of marrying the other person was so abhorrent to us both that it worked like a splash of cold water. It didn’t hurt that we’d met in a past-life therapy class: we...

American Bombs Fell on my Husband
I’ve never before shared this piece of my personal history on social media, but current headlines about Israel’s war of vengeance on Gaza has pressed me to break my silence.
In 1980, I married an American citizen who was born in Beirut. We lived in San Francisco, enjoying a terrifically fun, loving, and educational life. Educational for me, because I grew up in the Midwest, where Arab exchange students were a thing to be feared while I walked the campus at Michigan State. Or so I’d been told.
“If you look them in the eye and you’re an American girl, they think that means ‘yes,’” advised an older female friend. “So never do that!”
When I met my future Lebanese-American husband years later, he agreed. ...
Time to Call in the Remote Viewers!
While researching my upcoming novel (title TBD but it will be Book 1 in the Psychics & Aliens series), I read extensively about the U.S. government’s remote viewing experiments back in the late 20th century.
When I saw this morning that a Marine Corps F-35 fighter jet was lost over the weekend—I mean literally, they don’t know where to find the multimillion dollar aircraft, partly because it’s composed of stealth materials—I immediately thought of a passage I include in my novel, based on real life stories told by Dale Graff, a remote viewing pioneer for the U.S. government's Stargate program and now author of several books on the subject.

The new version also features more sketches inside (by me). Actually, I stole them from Marta/Amelia’s diary as she navigates the challenges of her psychic awakening. It's Magical Realism meets Ballet Fiction...

Are You Race Neutral?
It’s not your usual rhetoric from social scientists, as helpful as that might be. Our solution is what you might consider “out there” in terms of its underlying philosophy. But if this stranger and I could see, feel, and understand it—simultaneously—isn’t there hope for others whose lives seem, on the surface, to come from completely different cultures? A divide we have trouble crossing?
What unites us? We are human. As human beings, we all...
5 Lessons from Hawk Totem: The Harriers Who Live Here
For months now we’ve been learning from a pair of Northern Harrier hawks nesting near our three townhouse balconies, which overlook the San Diego River Gorge. Hawk totem. Teaching us how to be fierce in our creative commitments.
Whoosh! I was standing on the small balcony outside our bedroom when from behind the wall on my left swooped a v-shaped pair of gray wings that soared up into a tall eucalyptus, about four trees to my right. A few minutes later, I saw him soar back with a stick held perpendicularly in his beak, like a trapeze artist’s balancing bar, longer than his body length. It was early March, nesting season. How can he fly with that thing? I wondered ...

5 Ways to Fix an Unhappy Past Life Relationship
I often write “Dear Abby” type replies to people who comment on my posts about past life awareness. Many of them find themselves stuck in relationships that are making them unhappy. My most popular article of this sort is about identifying past life lovers, friends, and enemies. Thankfully, that begins to answer the question. They came together to rectify past life issues that have left them feeling unbalanced. But it’s never quite that simple.
What Does It Mean When a Beetle Lands in Your Hair?
The third time she landed, she stayed so long Joseph was able to grab the camera for her closeups. I finally had to urge her gently away because lunch was over.
I will admit, I kept asking Joseph, “What is she doing? Is she leaving anything behind?!?”
Yes, she was. A message...
Subtle Energy Depletion: A Healer’s Bane
The “Healer” opens her consciousness to the Infinite, the Universe, Source, God, with the intention of serving humanity. Or maybe just a single human. She fills herself with the Light energy that pours in. She is the empty vessel.
The Infinite overflows into her being, like water pouring out after a dam has broken. The Healer seeks this inflow as greedily as we seek water when thirsty, but the Infinite also requires the Healer. The Healer offers the negative pole in the electrical system, the deficit. The Infinite offers the positive pole, the surfeit. Energy, all up and down the frequency spectrum, from dimension to dimension, from pole to pole, from human to human, flows according to this...

How NOT to "Not Look Old"
Cosmic CoAuthors work with us in such subtle ways, their influence is almost indetectable. Almost. They nudge and encourage, silently dropping ideas into our minds, leading us in and out of learning situations with gentle hints. Only later can I detect their unmistakeable fingerprints, usually by realizing, “Hey! That was no ‘coincidence!’” It happened to me again yesterday.
I’d been drawn to a library book about how not to look old, probably because I just passed my sixtieth birthday last month. Yikes! Maybe I should be concerned? Dress differently? Wear different makeup? This coincides with my recent loss of thirty pounds, and my sudden overpowering need to clear clutter from every drawer, closet, box, and garage. (The first “coincidence,” in fact...
