Wow, I can’t believe we have almost reached the end of our journey. I wanted to start off today’s post by letting y’all know how grateful I am for you and this space. Gjabby and I worked together every day crafting insights and we truly hope they were helpful. We thank you for your support for this program and thank you for your donations to Justice for Elijah McClain. Keep WILL fighting for him!!!! And we will NOT stop until we have reached justice!!!!
I’ve spent the whole afternoon decompressing from a past-life regression hypnotherapy session earlier today. In the session, the beautiful goddess of wisdom Sophia came to me and turned me into the tree of life. Sophia is my middle name and the beacon of honestly …. everything I do. She divinely guides us and reminds us every day that we carry all the wisdom we need within us. She is the primordial creator of the universe, the root of philosophy, and the planetary mother goddess that is EARTH. Gaia! The Great Mother! She came to me to tell YOU that we are awakening! Every one of us has a light of love. It was beautiful.
Be sure to join us tomorrow for the closing ceremony! Come and share your insights, awakenings, and realizations.
Our Lady of Life, Gaia Sophia
To positively impact Gaia Sophia, honor the earth and plant a tree today. Please do your bit in the here and now; shine like the beautiful rainbow-sparkle child of emergent earth consciousness that you are. If we each plant even a handful of trees in our lifetime, then the impact will save earth-based religions such as ours from having no truly wild forests left to draw a circle within.
Think about the power of an old grove of trees, and take a moment to gift, buy, or plant a tree or perhaps a shrub. Choose something nice but not too expensive that will thrive on your property, or offer it to a coven or family member who owns land. Let your worship of the earth be at the end of a spade. Let’s weave out temples to Gaia Sophia in the woodlands of our living Mother Earth and help to resuscitate our planet.

Spinning into Wisdom
The seasons have a dynamic balance, always changing yet never out of balance. A top, like the seasons, finds its balance through spinning.
For this divination spell, you need a big sheet of paper and a spinning top. (I use my Mexican dreidel!) Think of a question. Meditate about its importance. Toward the center of the paper, write down all of the possible steps along the way to your question’s resolution. Toward the edge, write the different possible outcomes or answers. Draw lines between the entries to define areas.
Put the paper on a table. Give the top a spin and release it in the center. Note the path that it takes: these are the most likely things you’ll actually encounter along the way. The place where the top falls over or leaves the paper indicates the probable resolution to your question.
