Well, here it comes...The Chinese Year of the Water Dragon. When you look up the symbolism of the water dragon it is described as a powerful creature. But it loses power if it jumps into a situation before carefully observing or researching the circumstances. This year I've heard from a...

My Sunday morning started with my seven-year-old son trying to make his dad a father's day sandwich with smoked salmon and peanut butter. Luckily for his father, he couldn't find the peanut butter. While he made another breakfast combo, my son asked, "So, do you still want the Green Lantern?"

This week, I unwittingly waded into my emotions by seeing a sprawling movie all about feelings. It's called "The Tree of Life", by director Terrence Malick. I don't want to give away the plot, and probably, even if I wanted to, I couldn't anyway. That's just how expansive the movie...

If you are in the mood to be scared and current gas prices and foreclosure reports aren't doing it for you, might I suggest the movie Insidious? Simply put, it's terrifying. Without gore, it manages to be invasive and haunting, giving you a scare that lingers for days. I won't...

I really thought it would last. Three years ago I surrendered my plain old cell phone and my clunky Palm Pilot for a shiny pink Blackberry. We went everywhere together. I scheduled my life on it, I got more organized because all my emails, Facebook and Twitter came to one...

Speaking as an energetic/spiritual analogy, the idea of trying to get power by harnessing a very dangerous source can be problematic. Right now there's a meltdown going on at the nuclear facility in Japan. The top of one of the buildings that houses the reactor blew off the structure. I...

On the radio I heard a song by Lee DeWyze called "Sweet Serendipity." DeWyze is an "American Idol" winner. The lyrics talk about something watching over him, like sweet serendipity. The song is an upbeat ballad about what can go right in life even in the toughest of times.

As an intuitive coach, I find talking to women about their intuition and discussing finding their life's purpose is often a deadly serious subject for them. Their questions are as follows: Is there something else I should be doing for someone in my family? Should I volunteer more? Should I...

Sometimes an event happens that changes our thinking so radically, we must act on what we know is our truth. Who are the people who run to their desires, fearlessly pursuing their inner guidance?

Times are tough. Unemployment numbers are dismal, people's homes are still going back to the banks, and gas prices are on the rise. But you know what? Maybe the universe is sending a message loud and clear: money isn't everything. There's a different way to prosper.

I saw an interview...

Well, after dating caffeinated coffee for 33 years I've finally broken off the relationship. We've had our ups and downs, to be sure. But this is it, this is the real deal. Last weekend my heart went crazy. I don't mean longing for coffee, I mean it started pounding hard,...

Santa's elves are out in force. They're trying to find parking at the mall, crashing carts at the grocery store, and crowding the retail aisles in stores everywhere. Some of them are also complaining to me about how whacky they feel about the energy out there. I'm actually also complaining...

Just three months after the devastating Station fire scorched 160,000 acres in the Angeles National Forest, one of the main roads through the mountains is now open. Angeles Crest Highway, or State Highway 2, is a popular road for Los Angeles city dwellers to make a quick trip into nature...

Ok, people, look alive! Let's get this Thanksgiving rocking with not only a nod to good causes, but also with a shout about how discerning we can be. We're rocketing into the season of giving. I've been to the mall and the grocery store and Hanukkah-Christmas season is upon us....

So what is the point of vaguely believing in God energy, but not interacting with it? I just have to ask. Over and over again I meet people who say they have a feeling God exists. But then they don't take it any further. Is it just that if God...

Ok, so TMZ is reporting that Anna Nicole Smith got naked with her female therapist Dr. Khristine Eroshevich. That's the same psychiatrist who prescribed a mix of medications Smith was taking when she died of an accidental overdose. Smith was represented by her attorney, Howard K. Stern, who she was...

I believe when you get three similar nudges from the universe, someone's trying to send you a message. Today's third sign for me was seeing the term "distracted driving" pop up as the number one search phrase on Yahoo's home page. This week I've been pondering distracted driving, because I've...

Actor Will Smith has a great quote about those who make it big. He says, "Money and success don't change people, they merely amplify what is already there." Now I'm going to add to that notion by saying alcohol does something similar. It doesn't imbue you with a new personality;...

Exerpt from the book The Psychic Housewives' Handbook http://www.amazon.com/Psychic-Housewives-Handbook-Ground-Stars/dp/157174598X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252277903&sr=1-1

Now we're going to look at things in black and white. Life is rarely so clear-cut. But for the purposes of seeing more clearly: take a look at yourself and the people in your life by using the following two...

I have to admit, it was love at first sight. We met five years ago. When I looked into his eyes, he had me at first glance. Sam's blue eyes have a way of sucking in everyone around him. He has charisma. This summer we've decided to spend some down-time...
