KDP/Amazon Terminated My Account (I AM more powerful than Amazon)

Last week, I received an email from KDP that read: We are terminating your account effective immediately because we found that you have published titles with misleading content that have the potential to mislead or defraud our customers. I was working on a revision of my book A Love Alchemist’s Notebook: Magical Secrets for Drawing Your True Love Into Your Life, first published by Llewellyn in 2010. Then, it had earned an acclaimed starred review from Publisher’s Weekly. Since the rights reverted to me, I decided to re-release it. So I had to redesign the exterior (cover and bac ..read more

I’ve Been Ghosted

I’ve been ghosted, and I am finally ready to write about it. Long before this term became popular, or I knew what it meant…I was hurt in this way. We were best friends. Close. We had been in one another’s pockets. Then, one day, nothing. And nothing, for weeks, and then for months. To be fair, my friend had experienced a traumatic situation which had likely recalibrated her ability to be self-aware and cognizant of her effect on me. Initially, I had accounted for that. But then, after long gaps without communication she’d resurface, apologize, explain how lost she’d been. Then, nothing. All o ..read more

WOMB Time: Winter Solstice

I’ve been working on sidling up to this time of year. I tend to feel the energetic contrast between the strong pull inward, and the additional hustle and bustle that gets added to my plate. This can cause me to feel I’m in a tug of war. On one side: The pull to go inward is soooo strong. And, the other: I’m getting ready for houseguests (my stepdaughters), planning Christmas dinner, presents, accepting (but really mostly declining) invitations… From a neutral perspective, I like aspects of the time of year. But because I’m an introverted energy sensitive empath, and perhaps because there is s ..read more

Yikes! The very accurate card draw for my intuitive override. I don’t know if you have ever noticed this, but I certainly do: I think I’m having a very personal experience but then I find out another Healer is having an eerily similar variation of what I’m grokking. I’ll click on Instagram, or open up my inbox, to discover: Hey, I’m not the only one going through this right now! It speaks to our Interconnectedness; I feel we are doing Oneness work, together. Just as the whole of Consciousness shifts one drop at a time, it makes sense that similar themes come up for groups of us. This past we ..read more

Wrapping Up 2023

When I sat down to write a blog to you (about Pluto- will do that, later this month), I realised there’s been so much to say about what I’ve been up to. So if you feel like reading one of those old-fashioned year end wrap up notes, the kind you get from your Auntie you haven’t seen in a few decades or that old friend from your school days, grab a cup of tea and settle in. I’m sharing a little bit about 2023, for me. Let’s begin with the second half of 2023, as this latter half of the year was a big one. I went to Vienna, Austria for the month of October, with John, who consults for the United ..read more

You Are Not That Person Anymore

Our mind constantly references old ways of being. Similar to how a history book searches back in time in order to make sense of what we experience today, we look for what happened the last time we did this thing… …and it didn’t go well. We pull up our past Self. The one who was simply coping with what she didn’t yet understand. The one trying to survive, and who formed some beliefs to help her do that. The one who was doing the very best that she could at the time. Yet you are not that person anymore. So why do you keep reviving her? What if: The next time your memory starts to foll ..read more

On Being A Published Author
Moonkissd by Jessica Shepherd

Before I became a published author, with Llewellyn Press, I was rejected – many times. If you don’t know how difficult it is to be published by a mainstream press, please allow me to illuminate you: You probably think writing the book is the hard part. Nope. Writing the book proposal is much harder. A 75+ page document that required me to “sound byte” all the best parts of my work, and take a bird’s eye view to communicate the story of the work, I had to put down my creator, and editor, hats. Now, I had to imagine myself as a book acquisitions editor, coming across hundreds or thousands of pr ..read more

Forgiveness Work & Saturn in Pisces

This past weekend I offered an Energy Clearing class, and one of the intuitive energy clearing practices was for Self-Forgiveness. I wasn’t sure I was going to do this practice– but it had been coming up for me, lately, so I went with it. It appeared to resonate. One participant said, “We women, we are so hard on ourselves.” That was a punch to the gut; we all felt that. Another participant spoke to the way that holding on to emotions can make us physically ill. Yet another said she was really struggling with forgiving herself, lately. Forgiveness work feels Saturn in Pisces to me! Saturn’s h ..read more

When You Feel You Can’t Connect to Your Divinity

Every morning in Hawaii I do my favorite part of the day: I feed the birds and sit on the wooden rocking chair on the front porch while sipping my coffee and watching them eat. Sometimes this morning ritual is a blessed reprieve from rows of sleepless nights of experiencing symptoms; when the nights last too long, for too long, this ritual restores me back to myself. This morning, I am thinking about Connection to my Source Self, my Divine Self. In these nights that last too long, my conditioning around feeling abandoned and alone can kick in. A reality in my childhood, and then experiences w ..read more
