I love this photograph.  The colors are so rich in this season’s palette. The golden yellows, reds and brown leaves juxtaposed against the clear, blue skies. And remember, all of these Eleanor’s Dream series photographs are created at night, paintings of Light in the darkness. Miracles of symbols and colors, attuning all who have eyes to see with the frequency of Divine Love. The Spirit of Appalachia is alive and well. And she speaks through my camera lens. Hurricane Helene charged through these oldest mountains in the world just over a year ago, created chaos, and left a trail of destruction. Helene was no match for the Spirit of this place, though. As many survivors are still being >>

It is the First day of Autumn and the signs are showing with the subtle changes in the leaves. Yellow is the first  color to appear, and some small appearances of red. The celebration of St. Hildegard of Bingen’s birthday occurred a few days ago, reminding us of the healing power of Nature. The leaves are falling, swirling and dancing in their free falls. Nights are cooler and blankets are placed on the ends of beds. The culinary delights of this season abound, as apple fritters and pumpkin scones and cupcakes appear. Farmers markets and garden centers are awash with pumpkins in varied hues along with cornstalks and cabbages. Yes, this is my favorite time of year. Wardrobes >>

We live in a time where everything seems speeded up and people seem distracted by life. Not so in Nature. Here in the Nantahala Forest, all is in Divine Order. Summer is in full bloom. Fruits and vegetables are arriving daily at local produce stands. A steady progression through the Fall. Daisies and dandelions and so many wildflowers carpet the Meadow surrounding Eleanor, Queen of the Meadow. And wild blackberries cover the hillside outside my home.  This year the roster of songbirds has increased dramatically. This morning a tiny yellow finch clung to a dandelion stalk and swayed to its own music. There is a nice breeze this afternoon and  the trees wave their leaves at us, and >>

There is so much beauty here in these mountains. A haven of peace and prosperity. The gift of sight is one of many gifts from our Creator. The night skies here in the Nantahala Forest are a magical doorway to the mystery of the stars that twinkle above us. The gift of our imagination takes us in our own personal transport to the lands beyond our current existence, beyond this time and space. These are the journeys to places unexplored, and to the familiar. Visiting our imagination regularly is healthy and ignites our creativity. I am thankful for Eleanor, Queen of the Meadow, for her gentle reminder of our gifts of creativity.  We are all artists  creating our >>

We are living in changing times, changing timelines., changing dimensions, changing worlds. The Schumann Resonance charts are setting records daily as Mother Earth shifts her frequencies higher. We can shift our frequencies, or not.  It is a choice. It is as if Bob Dylan’s song lyrics exist in real time, for “the times they are a changing”. We have free will and the choice to view our lives and open the window to Higher Consciousness, our portal to the next dimensions. I choose to be Love, and live my life mission joyfully and abundantly. I am creating my new reality. Blessings from these magnificent Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, looking through my window to Higher Consciousness. >>
