Time Can Heal You
Time can heal you, says my friend, Omitosin... But you must "realize healing is not shiny or pretty. It is not lotus flowers and singing bowls. It is gut wrenching, emotional, mind and spirit blowing," she says. However, "once you acknowledge the pain and are able to work within that space, that's when the healing starts. Healing is a daily...
Ancestral Return
Last October I got an email from Ade Anifowose... The email said: "I'm a Nigerian who is learning more about my country, traditions and roots in America. I feel a resonance with your energy and your perspective on African spirituality. I would love to connect with you and talk about your experiences and to look into the possibility of doing a...
Expect a Miracle
Happy New Year to you and your family... If 2017 was a rough year for you, I'm hoping 2018 is much better and finds you in good health, good spirits and on the path to spiritual growth and abundance. A few weeks ago, I wrote a short post about miracles on the Across The King's River FB page. Can't remember exactly what I said, but I basically...
Are You Living Your Purpose?
My friend Vanessa messaged me on Facebook recently... "How does one discover their purpose," she asked. "Does your Spirit guide or teacher tell you? I wonder if I'll ever know mine. I want to choose something that makes me feel happy or fulfilled. But I want it to be aligned with my life's purpose," she said. As a spiritual advisor I hear this...
Rebuilding From The Rubble
We're rebuilding from the rubble. There's no other choice... ...And there's a lot of rubble left in the wake of Hurricanes Irma and Maria that swept through the Caribbean last month, as well as from Hurricane Harvey that caused extensive damage and flooding in Texas. I haven't been home to the Virgin Islands yet, but thankfully Mom and the rest...
Surviving Irma and Maria
It's been a challenging month... A 7.1 earthquake in Mexico leaves 331 dead. Meanwhile, back home in the Caribbean, we face the daunting task of rebuilding from the rubble left behind by Hurricanes Irma and Maria. On the island of St. Croix, where I'm from, we're still trying to assess the damage. Thankfully, my Mom is safe, and as far as I know...
Staying Grounded In Crazy Times
I'm not sure what to say... ...Because who knows what's coming next? These are troubling times. Just a little over one month ago, the nation's attention was riveted on white supremacists marching through the streets of Charlottesville and President Trump's unwillingness to condemn them. And then Hurricane Irma suddenly appeared on the horizon...
What’s Your Plan For Healing?
I had an amazing experience with an 82-year-old healer in Jamaica recently... She's a most unusual healer; she puts her hands gently on your body as if you were about to receive a massage, but then she starts removing objects from your body. ...Things you wouldn't think could possibly be in your body. She placed her hands on me and gently removed...
Allowing Your Ancestors To Guide You
Your ancestors have a plan for you... ...And their plan might not be the same as the plan you have for yourself - it might be better. That's why it's important to pay attention to patterns that have been showing up in your life lately because I'll bet your ancestors or trying to tell you something or want to send you somewhere. Recently, Spirit...
You Can’t Say Yes to Everything
You can't say yes to everything... ...So learn how to say no and mean it. Focus on what will bring the most value to you and stick with it. That's what I'm doing. I'm saying no to some things because I'm working on my book and my film, Across The King's River. I'm still doing spiritual readings, however, so call or write if you need one. My book,...
