Remembering my Dirty Southern Adventures.*

just reminiscing on past travels...it's summertime again, which means it's time to travel back to my southern roots...moonshine, national forests, swamps, ghosts, voodoo, haunted mausoleums, gothic cemetaries....dreams do come true.*

Amsterdam Steez.*

are they NOT the cutest couple in the world? princengracht, amsterdam must be a super hip, stylish place. going on the to-go list....*

The Collective Unconscious.*

a coworker told me something amazing yesterday. she had a very intense, realistic dream that i brought her dead cat back to life using a lock of fur. i was really worried that he would come back wrong but he was great, & she was really thankful & happy. on the same night, i also had one of the most intense, enjoyable dreams of my life: i was a witch, powerful & looking through underground, ancient, occult libraries & discovering secret tarot cards to uncover a royal farce. i was flying over green hills (ireland?) trying to bring justice to the kingdom and uncovering a false prince, exploring beautiful, mythical lands & people & i was very powerful. this made us both think of the idea of the collective unconscious & the collective memory. i am a firm believer that these dreams are no coincidence. certain stones can really increase psychic visions & aid in tapping into these states....try it & practice developing your third eye. read about dreamtime crystals here. sweet dreams.*

Our Mystical Journey in Joshua Tree.*

we took a group trip to joshua tree about 2 summers ago...it's the closest you can get to the landscape im currently craving while still in california...grainy film to match the grainy sand....riding together on the same wave in between the ancient rocks....*

RIP Ian Curtis.*

i know i'm a day late, but he still deserves extended ups. ian curtis, your voice has haunted me since middle school, and will continue to do so forever. 31 years ago yesterday, RIP. thank you for changing music.*

Summer Travels: Red Rocks, Navajo Lands, & Petrified Forests.*

Celestial Intensity.*

tonight, the full moon is in ever-passionate scorpio. you would be wise to be in tune with these changes. my friend marcella at
