How to Start a Creative Process Journal
You’ve probably kept some form of personal journal before, for yourself or for a class. But have you ever kept a journal specifically for your creative process? You might be writing a book, or it might be a process journal for another long-form creative project you’ve taken on, like making a mural or series of…

Starcat’s Best Books of 2022
Here it is, everyone, my annual Best Books post. But this time I couldn’t pick just 10, so I’m featuring my 14 favorite books from 2022. As always, please note that these aren’t necessarily books that came out in 2022, just ones that I encountered and very much enjoyed. I read 70 books in 2022.…

Back in the late summer, I signed myself up for a couple of new – well, I guess you’d call them life coaching packages, though it’s more like magickal or spiritual coaching, really. One was an offering from an inspiring coach I’d met via the WEALTH course. I signed up for a free consult she’d…

Starcat’s Favorites: Seaside Vacation
I’ve been away this week, up at Quester’s family camp on the ocean. It’s been a delight. Quester and I were celebrating our 31st wedding anniversary, and we also enjoyed hosting some new friends from out of state who stayed with us for a few days. It can be hard for me sometimes to take…

The Wealth All Around Us: A Call to Gratitude
I’ve noticed recently how much my mind likes to default to what’s “wrong” in my life. This is especially true as I focus on building my financial foundation. When I wake up and start my day, my brain wants to immediately fixate on something like “solving a money shortage.” It wants to point out the…

Unconditional Wealth
I was sitting cross-legged on my bed, meditating, which I do each morning. This time, a phrase arose in my mind. It floated around there, repeating like a mantra. The phrase? “Unconditional wealth.” After my meditation, I gave some thought to why this phrase arose and what it might mean. One of my favorite Law…

Starcat’s Favorites: Interior Design
Because I’m putting together a new home office, I’ve recently been diving into the world of interior home design. I’m fascinated and delighted! At the same time, I’m not the type to go for a particular style simply because it’s trendy. I like to put my own spin on my spaces. In the past, I…

A Room of My Own
Some of my creative energies are currently focused on creating a home office for myself and my business. I’m so excited! My Younger Self (aka inner child) is especially delighted. For various reasons, I’ve never had an entire room that is wholly mine. I’m reminded of Virginia Woolf’s essay “A Room of One’s Own.” She…

Navigating the Galactic Barrier
BlackLion and I have been watching the Star Trek: Discovery series, and loving it. A recent episode had the crew of Discovery trying to find a way to travel through the galactic barrier and into another galaxy for an important First Contact mission. It’s not as simple as just flying through. There’s a lot of…

Starcat’s Favorites: Transforming
As I write this, it’s snowing. It’s windy and cold outside. Just two days ago, it was sunny and in the 60s. Luckily I know better than to think winter is done with us, at least here in Maine. It’s not just the weather, but the energy tides as well. I’m still in the “creative…
