A Continuous Stream

I vividly remember the weekend my father died. He passed peacefully at home, in his favorite space. I worked hard to make this happen for him.  He had lost both his legs and weighed maybe 90 lbs? I helped carry his shrouded body to the black car in the driveway with the help of the…

The Most Sacred Space Within A Sacred Precinct

“We now come to the altar. The greatest magicians are the great altar builders. There are more altars in this world than you can shake a stick at.
