For decades, high-achieving women have been taught to interpret the changes of midlife through a narrow biological lens. When desire fades, when energy collapses, when emotional resilience thins, the explanation offered is almost always hormonal. Estrogen drops. Testosterone shifts. Progesterone changes.

There comes a point in relationship where we begin to realize that the other person cannot be the source of our wholeness, no matter how strongly it may feel that way in the beginning. We come together to serve as mirrors for one another, to lead each other back to our own souls. This, to me, is what soul mates truly are. It is not about finding someone who completes us, but about participating in a process of making soul together.

Spring is an exciting time of year. Trees and gardens sprout new growth. Students catch spring fever and play hooky. The rest of us go into a frenzy of spring cleaning. Like our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents before us, we clear out closets, pack winter clothes away, clean windows and contemplate the garage.

The 2026 Spring Equinox, or Ostara, falls on March 20. On this day, the hours of day and night are equal and Springtime is celebrated. Here are some ways to celebrate!

If you’re like me, you don’t watch the news. But if there was ever a year worth paying attention to, it’s this one. On January 1, we officially step into Act II of a two-part cosmic story known as 2025–2026. For the next 12 months, we’re in a 1 Universal Year (2 + 0 + 2 + 6 = 10 → 1), bringing fresh starts, bold choices, and a clean slate.

One of the ways spiritual seekers work to integrate higher understandings is through the contemplation of spiritual truths. I often tell my students that to contemplate an understanding is to hold it gently, allowing for the fullness of the concept to emerge without grasping or feeling that one has to think hard about it. Here, I offer you an excerpt from my recently published book, Rending the Veils: A Primer on Spiritual Awakening.

For many years of my life, I lived through experiences that felt confusing, painful, and often without meaning. At the time, I could not see any coherent design moving through my story. Only much later, looking back, did I recognize a deeper intelligence quietly arranging the path. First it led me to astrology. Then, two years later, to Carl Jung. Only after walking both for a long time did I begin to understand what Jung meant by the Self — not the ego, not personal will, but the organizing center of the psyche that guides from beyond our conscious control.

DNA is an electrical structure. It carries charge, vibrates, and exists within a constantly shifting field of chemical and electromagnetic activity. That much is well known. What intrigued researchers was the suggestion that DNA—under certain laboratory conditions—appeared to react when surrounding electromagnetic fields changed, even when removed from living cells. When the field changed, the response shifted. When the signal stopped, the response faded.
