Licia’s Observations
The Big Picture

The Big Picture

Spring Equinox I’ve been a translator for higher consciousness for years; I used to post consistent updates on the larger energetic picture as I understood it (given to me by said higher consciousness).  It was in June of 2008, at the point that my site was getting...

Being With It

Being With It

With the recent events in Japan, the collective emotional energy is one of fear, grief, and anger.  Since we are all connected, at some level all of us are feeling it.  Depending on your comfort level with expressing emotion, you could be doing lots of crying these...

Spirituality and Physical Life

Spirituality and Physical Life

The idea that all life is connected and that all life is sacred makes a lot of sense to me.  Perhaps this is an innate holdover from indigenous ancestry (which we all have if you go back far enough). I have fallen into the trap of some spiritual philosophies that...

Balancing the Inner Feminine and Masculine

Balancing the Inner Feminine and Masculine

I’ve been thinking lately about our years in Colorado; the mid-point of our 7-year odyssey, we bought land there in February of 2006 and remained there (mostly, with lots of travel occurring) until August of 2009.  It was a great landing place for us to integrate what...

Oppression and the Feminine

Oppression and the Feminine

Just had the opportunity to comment on a friend's blog about women, oppression, and the Feminine.  I had to share this with you, and send you to her blog, where a lively and thoughtful conversation are going on.  Here was my input: "I find the silence that comes with...

Spirit is Here, Now

It’s about time. The changes occurring in the Arab world, the cradle of human civilization, are exciting to say the least. Thousands of years of human conflict and bloodshed…thousands of years of abandonment of how connected we are…thousands of years of fighting over...

BIG LOVE

BIG LOVE

Many years ago, when I met Peter, I first had sense of recognition.  He seemed familiar.  Not that he looked like someone I had met or identified as someone I would be attracted to.  Just…familiar. There was also a sense of something bigger…a pull, a draw.  What is...

The Oldest Definition of Health

The Oldest Definition of Health

Pete and I are holding a playshop in a couple of weeks entitled “Spiritual Partnership”; we are really excited about it, in a very big picture, step-on-the-moving-sidewalk-straight-to-your-destiny kind of way. When we first met almost 25 years ago, we had a sense that...

The Concept of Home

The Concept of Home

After several years of feeling homeless due to our family’s journey (which has felt distinctly like a 7 year vision quest, or odyssey) we are finally being guided to put down deeper roots and begin the process of buying a house. I’ve been thinking about “home” a lot...

Seven Years

Seven Years

My husband and I have both been very interested in systems; I see this in my writing, in our art work, and in the way we both think. Also in the way we raised our family. I think our interest in systems stems from feeling the difficulty in being part of fractured...
