EXCITING NEWS: My new book!

Release date: August 26th!

It’s been a while since I reached out to all of you. Life continues to be a process, and writing Navigating Your Dream World was a dream come true. Literally. I appreciate the support and comments I received from many of you.

I love how the world of symbols, totems, colors, and seasons, our body and nature carry so many messages, often in plain sight. So many folks solve everyday problems through their dreamtime, and some solve complex ones that have impacted our world. For example, in 1846, Elias Howe dozed off, woke up with an image that gave him the idea for the eye in our sewing needles, an invention that created a sewing machine and one that impacted many aspects of the sewing world. Amazing, right?

Eventually, I joined an archetype circle facilitated by one of Caroline Myss’ certified teachers. She helped me understand my natal chart archetypally. When I felt compelled to pick the Wounded Healer Archetype, she said, “Understand, the Wounded Healer archetype is a cosmic setup. There’s no one to blame.” And that one comment shifted my entire inner world.

Because archetypes bring us into a mystical understanding and soul work, I wanted to share what it means to me. As I created the dream book and delved into shadow and archetypes, this story was born, a personal journey of understanding how deeply the Chiron archetype has influenced my life choices, goals, and deep desire to fulfill my soul’s destiny. However, the story was too big to include in Navigating Your Dream World.

The Gift From Chiron contains astronomical, astrological, and archetypal dynamics. Chiron’s presence in all our natal astrological charts places us in a mystical field of understanding – a place where we can understand the difference between fate and destiny. Several years ago, as I received many nighttime dreams and worked on decoding them, I experienced a dream that was out of this world. It’s so difficult to explain, but I feel my higher self, a higher presence, showed me the dynamics of how interrelated every choice we make is in a complex configuration that even today I find hard to describe. The feeling I received, though, is that we are far more complex than we can ever fully understand in our lifetime. We get glimpses. Unseen forces and presences support us. We have free will to choose how we accept the cards we are dealt. Synchronicities become a part of life, not an exception. And once we gain more self-awareness, we are transformed.

For me, delving into Chiron, placed in the third house of Gemini in my natal chart, revealed how a series of events pushed me into something more. This story seeks to remind us that there is purpose to our lives, and playing the blame game keeps us in our fate. When we choose to forgive and heal, we enter our destiny. It’s our choice.

 From my back cover: “Drawing from years of holistic healing practice and teaching, this book offers seven essential steps for understanding and refining your healing journey in a truly holistic way, weaving together the facets of body, mind, and spirit into a comprehensive approach to transformation.
More than a guide to personal healing, The Gift from Chiron reveals how your journey through darkness can become a beacon of light for others. When we face our wounds with courage and compassion, we don’t just heal ourselves—we become wounded healers capable of sharing our hard-won wisdom with a world in need.
Your wounds have been waiting to become your wisdom. It’s time to unwrap the gift.
“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” —Rumi.
