Magic

Jackie Morris
If you have secrets, tell them your way. Give them your own spin. Or get comfortable with surprises. And really, that’s a great idea anyway. Most of human trouble is compounded by trying to keep our lives too small, so small they don’t fit us as we grow. Why not embrace whatever comes? - Satori Harris

Keep the light on
We built a nest of a home on wheels in 2008, and in so many ways we have become more wild; connection with Kolea (the Golden Plover) has given us lessons with long distance travel. Kolea is a solitary traveler, loyal to a given place we have felt that genetic message but that's changing. Now Nene and Pelican offer the message of interdependency. And then, on the full moon and lunar eclipse 2019, Coyote initiated us with howls outside our wagon windows! Howls are Wild!! As other wild ones who live with everything, and return to a nest or den to rest and dream their lives, their feats of endurance, capacity to navigate and cooperate fuels us.

That is a good sign, we think, evidence of becoming Mauliauhonua.
