Life is precious!
I found out last night that someone I love very much passed away on Saturday in Mexico City. Luis Garcia was, and forever in my heart will be, one in a zillion! Kind, protective, considerate, responsible, loving, amazing, spiritual, inspiring, brilliant...and young. He had a heart attack...
Enjoy every day that you have. We none of us know how many days we get to dance in the sunshine. Would you like to spend your time wisely and to spread love? Geshe Michael Roach has a meditation whereby each morning upon waking, you ask yourself, "If I were going to die tonight, how would I spend this, my last day?" Ahh! What are your heart's desires?
Blessings to my sweet, sweet friend, Luis. I know you are in the Light, Dear, Dear Luis - with all the other Angels! ... Until we meet again.
Love and Light, Raven

Counting blessings each day
Blessing Number One:
It's Friday, March 23rd and tomorrow is my Dad's birthday. I'm so glad to have him here on earth with us still! In December of 1999, through a whole set of bizarre circumstances, my Dad spent the night in a vast wilderness in northern Vermont, lost in a blizzard. It was a miracle not only that he survived, but that he had no harmful effects from being totally exposed to the elements in clothes turned to ice with no shelter at all, except for a tree! The Spirits and Angels blessed my family mightily, and I never forget to thank Them so many times during the year, especially on my Dad's birthday! Perhaps one day I'll tell the whole story...
Blessing Number Two:
There are two book I'd like to recommend. One is "Are You Ready to Succeed?" by Srikumar Rao. I was very fortunate to meet Srikumar this week through the kind introduction by Shira Boss, author of another amazing book, "Green with Envy" that was recently featured on the Today show. Enjoy the transformational reads! Books like these are blessings, because they have the power to transform our lives!
Blessing Number Three:
We are so lucky. When you tell yourself how lucky you are from time to time during each day, your life gets better and better! This is such a simple practice that has such wonderful results! Counting blessings always brings more of the same.
May you be blessed a billion times, and then some!
Love, Raven

taking care of yourself...
What are you thinking about? What do you read? What do you watch? Are you taking care of yourself in all of that?
I did volunteer healing work after September 11th for 8 1/2 months, spending the last 4 1/2 months in the command center trailer of the Port Authority Police Department at Ground Zero. I became very good friends with the Port Authority cops I was doing healing sessions with, including Lt. Bill Keegan, who was the night commander of the whole operation. Lt. Keegan wrote a book at the 5 year anniversary of 9/11 called "Closure", and although he invited me to a book signing many months ago, I couldn't go, so it was easy for me to avoid reading the book. But after e-mailing back and forth with a widow of a PAPD officer who contacted me recently, I decided to get the book and to read it in honor of all the guys and everything that happened down there. "Closure" is truly amazing - wonderful writing - it has you sitting on the edge of your seat as a read...and after reading 75 pages, I find that I can't read it after all. Not me. Too much happened to me down there. With my Reiki hands, I touched all those guys who were going through all of that, and I felt their feelings shoot through me like electric bolts of lightening. The words take me back to that time and place too vividly. I don't want to go there again.
I've worked hard to return myself to normal, and now I have my heart and mind full of the Goddess and of Her Light. I don't wish to go back, though I love the guys and Lt. Keegan for all they are and for all they have done, and I affirm that the Goddess will bless them always....
So that brings me to the present. I don't read things that are negative, I don't watch the news, I hardly watch any TV. I don't want to put bad things into my mind and heart - listening to my higher self has brought me to this place of engaging only with what I choose to "vibrate with". Science is proving that the chemistry of any person's body changes in relation to what they are thinking and feeling. (see "The God Code" on myspace.com)
Be good to yourself!

Tulum, 2007
Hi All,
The Goddess workshop in Tulum was very beautiful indeed! Lots of shamanic journeying to Spirit Guides and Initiation Chiefs opened the way within each person for a powerful Initiation to the Goddess energy. Our Guardians protected the sacred space on the beach for the actual Initiation, which took place on Friday night, March 3rd in the presence of Grandmother Moon.
I give thanks for all the blessings each person received, and I am overjoyed for the awakening, the results of which are resonating still!
