Patience & Perseverance – A Pep Talk

Published by on September 30, 2015 | Leave a response

How is it possible that we’ve already reached the end of September? Is it just me, or has this entire month just flown right by? Also, is anyone else being tossed around by the waves of cosmic energies lately? (Check out the dance of the stars and planets here and here). The super full moon eclipse, […]

Finding Joy Where You Are

Published by on October 7, 2014 | Leave a response

It’s been a hectic and crazy autumn thus far. I wasn’t sure I was coping very well. Between grieving and stress and hormones and lack of down time, I wasn’t in the joyful space where I wanted to be. Then it was fair and festival time. Two of the past three weekends I’ve spent outdoors, […]

An Autumnal Equinox Remembrance

Published by on September 23, 2014 | Leave a response

Blessings of Autumn to you! Or perhaps Spring, if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere. Either way, it is a time of seasonal change, with all the transformation it brings. The Fall Equinox is also known as Mabon, a harvest festival at the point where the days and nights are of equal length, now turning towards […]

Starcat’s Favorites: Healthy Living

Published by on June 14, 2014 | Leave a response

…or my current best attempt at it, anyway, as I’m still learning. I’m doing yoga five times a week or more. I had a massage this week (thanks, Mom and Dad, for the gift card!).  I’ve cut out refined sugar (including alcohol), and have been avoiding fried foods (not that I eat a lot of […]

Starcat’s Favorites: In the Garden

Published by on April 26, 2014 | Leave a response

Happy weekend! We’re having some April showers here today, but they’re helping the gardens, so I’m not complaining. BlackLion has been in big-time green thumb mode, creating new beds in our garden as well as tending to his seedlings. Things are starting to bloom around here after some milder weather. Here’s a picture he took […]

Starcat’s Favorites: I’m Ready!

Published by on March 1, 2014 | Leave a response

Happy March! Not to rush Mother Nature or anything, but I’m more than ready for the Spring Equinox, which happens this month. Or more accurately, for the warmer weather that it will presumably usher in.  It’s been a cold week, and we still have a couple feet of snow on the ground. Don’t get me […]

The Healing Power of Mythology

Published by on February 16, 2014 | Leave a response

The grieving process is not to be trifled with. Over the past two weeks I’ve been hard at work on a guest post for one of my favorite blogs, Kind Over Matter. Longer, really, as I was framing the story in my mind before I started putting it on paper. This is my 6th piece […]

Starcat’s Favorites: Fruits of Hibernation

Published by on February 1, 2014 | Leave a response

Happy weekend all! Yes, it’s still pretty darn cold. So yes, I’m still in hibernation mode. But it’s been a very productive quiet season thus far. The most exciting thing I have to share is that BlackLion and I have completely revised and redesigned our Feline Dreamers website. We added some adorable artwork (by BlackLion!) […]

Hibernation, Schedules & Transformation

Published by on January 22, 2014 | Leave a response

I started my yoga practice up again yesterday. It’s an off-and-on thing for me. I’m trying a new routine for the days where I’m working from home, for myself. When I wake up, I write in my daily diary, then get up and ready for the day. It starts on the yoga mat, and then […]

Starcat’s Favorites: Waning Days of 2013

Published by on December 28, 2013 | Leave a response

How were your holidays? Are you basking in a contented glow, feeling glad that they’re finally over, or a bit of both? I had some joyful times with my dear family and friends. Yet there was also sadness, and some overwhelm. It’s all good. I’m content with where I am, and I’m wishing you the […]
