The Age of Aquarius

The link between destruction and transformation is incredibly thin.  Oftentimes, it is simply perspective that defines that line and one person’s destruction truly is another person’s transformation.  The year 2020 was certainly that test for many of us.  A year that started with similar hopes as previous years was quickly replaced by a moment in time that none of us will soon forget.  Institutions began showing cracks and those most conscious among us began surveying the demise of what once was as it was replaced by an entirely new age.  The Age of Aquarius, which formally arrived around late 2011/early […]

Who Am I?

Such a profound question with seemingly a myriad of answers.  There are some sages who dug much deeper than the externals of the question and came away with answers that could very well break the code of the mysteries of the Universe.  The masters asked questions few of us consider however if we can understand what the Enlightened Ones did, we could very well live the life of harmony that they lived. Who is the witnessing consciousness?  What is the witnessing consciousness?  If we are able to—through one pointed focus of the mind—investigate “Who am I?” we can discover the

(For my father on his birthday, may you forever Rest In Peace.)

There is an incredible amount of healing that can manifest through the art of burning wood.  I have often maintained that trees are the masters among us.  Trees sit in perfect being-ness never allowing outside environmental circumstances to ever alter their state of peace.  Surely, trees do have to sway and bend from time to time when inclement weather arrives and occasionally a stray branch may fall to the earth, but the tree stands in peace regardless of the surrounding environment; until it transcends beyond the earth and back to the celestial realms.  At this time, the carcass of this

My faith deepened.  I was pushed so far out of my comfort zone that the only thing I could do was surrender.  This was 2020.  A year when metaphorically we were meant to see clearer, instead we were left to investigate our lives in an entirely different manner.  All things that no longer served us were meant to melt away—or burn away for that matter—only to return to be delivered as our destiny. For me, my career in comedy came to an abrupt halt.  Leading in to 2020 I traveled around the world a few times a month to either
