Read about this basket I got and all the visions inspired by it

Read about my recent trip and the takeaways of driving through vastly open spaces

Happy full moon! Sharing some ramblings on what it means, my understanding of truth, to then actualize the potency of the strawberry moon 🍓

Wrote some new words about creation and the ways in which minds are shifting, or rather, how our focus is shifting from mind to heart 🌈

New on post on sound and the harmony we live within 🕯️

New post about my time in Florida and the ways in which water continues to help shape my purpose here

New post on how one experiences time as a collection of moments. On how the flamingo gets their pink back after losing it when caretaking. Where do we go when we exit the present? It’s always here 🦩

New post with thoughts from a one woman show on Eleanor Roosevelt, the women I met there, and the woman I want to be ~ happy international women’s day!

Meeting on Monday in honor of women’s history month 🌷

I write about ice, the frozen pond and moon. I write about love and change, and the way growing is persistent and exciting

New post reflecting on Brigid’s Day, as well as a day with Carly, thinking about our purpose here, how a story can allow us entrance into ourselves

Monthly Meetings! Every second Monday of the month 💙🌿 best place to be up to date on meetings and to be reminded, is by subscribing to my substack - link in bio

Sharing some thoughts on storytelling and how we can walk that of a past we never lived, yet because of our bloodline, is alive in us every day, helping us become. New post at link in bio 🩵

A post on the solstice and reflections that arose 🌑

A little contemplative metaphor of ice and how water may present to us as a book, waiting to be deciphered—how we are kept and keep ourselves from it 🍃 Eve as a gateway into that metaphor

A gifted painting of beeswax and resin from an artist Robbin Pulver-Andrews in Niagara-on-the-Lake, that mirrors my own backyard hill where for so long I’ve greeted the natural world and the spirals within my own. New post on how memories and time move, how the earth can hold us, carry us in the web of her basket 🍃💫

New post: a dream, the meeting of a woman, a song, and all their meanings 🌱

Post about my birthday and wishes for the year

What is it that brings us to the water? In this post I question just that in the context of a well, different types of vision, and photographs of animals drinking from an oasis under the stars. Under the moon is a time for reflection and knowing-let the water realize its intelligence

Join our group this Thursday to talk about blessings, feel them, read them, write them

The Wayside Well: in this post, I call it a well, listening to tales of my grandma and how life weaves all states of time as one. Then the heron above the pond, and love, how all can be miracle with the right set of eyes 💗

Climbed a tree, thought on how seasons come with different tempos of breath, and reasons to be veiled. The willow was open, gold, and I, for the first time in awhile, still 🌿 new post at link in bio

Sometimes our way to dirt is our way to water 🌾🫧 new post on this new moon

To my grandfather’s home: read to hear about water and memory and remembrance and reconnecting with ancestry 🩵

Next women’s group a week from today: Tuesday July 2nd at 7pm. Reach out for zoom link

Found this photo in a book titled “Girlfriends.” Thought it captured the essence of joy that comes from sitting in circle with fellow ladies

A post on the summer solstice, on the spiral comings and goings of life and death. These cycles mark our time here as a miracle. I talk about holding space and the gift it is to be seen and heard. From watching water fall, to embracing a newly named widow, to accepting the truth of your nature, it all means to honor the season you are in. I hope my words find you listening, excited and eager to embrace your reason, and live fully, your gifts ☀️

New post on the language of nature and the lessons and roles of our animal friends 💛

A post from last week on birds and mothers and the space nature makes for us to be loved and connect. “We stay only as long as the hawk.”

To return and leave. Return, and leave. Return. This week I write on the importance of women gathering and how this circle is accessible in small common ways. I ask what makes women so special and what about red hair too. The room of magic. The one we’re always welcomed into

two gentle poems this week, a deer following the water, a bird to join him, me to witness

New post on women’s circles and the importance of rites of passage ☘️ art by Caroline Chessia

a post to bring awareness of the ways in which nature and her creatures mirror our own human lives, how we must honor our natural rhythms

A longer post this week on radical love and the ways of becoming, creating, a new earth

Lightning bugs as a metaphor for healing men ⚡️new post at link in bio

Happy pink moon! May you release all you need to let go of, and make space to be filled with medicine 🌕

April 23rd—Tuesday at 8:30pm ET. Next meeting! DM for zoom link

🌼 NEW POST 💛 How can we turn our challenges into invitations? How can we feel more fully? What disguised gifts are waiting for you to see? 🌤️

Of the birds, their calls and meanings and feathers. Of the stream, its source and journey and direction. How are we moved? Who calls to us? Who are our teachers? I ask the trees and earth in this post to explore just that 🐢 and the little turtle—turtle island reborn

It is an honor to carry Brigid, to weave her cross, to know her well. This journey has been incredible for so many soulful reasons and I am sad that it is ending. But with a brief illness forcing me to stop, revealing just how tired I am, I know it is time for me to go home. This week’s post explains that wandering from water to other water, and how the lake I grew up on, is medicine—a well in her own right ✨

Me and the grand cedar in Paris’ Jardin des Plantes. Read this week’s post to hear of yet another gardener, this process of growth that takes place underground. The chrysalis. I talk about a podcast and film as well as personal narrative, to weave this metaphor through 🤍

The full moon in Virgo over the water in Florence 🌝 This week I share a poem I wrote a couple years ago on this theme of water and the interpretations we make of it

Crossing Father Moore’s Well just before my return to Paris. This journey has taken me ways I didn’t expect and so this post is a coming back to my writing��—proof of found time and stillness (much needed). Enjoy my little analogy of being in the water, of swinging this way and that, of trusting in the return 🌈

The Grotto at Lourdes: in this post I weave a story of a man healed by his garden, that of a girl turned Saint, that of holy water and wells, that of the hummingbird, and that of me. It’s not about our connection to water, but how water connects us all—how it gives permission for us to make new life. Folding seeds into the dirt, I’m not sure what I’m planting. But I know I’ll meet it when it grows 🌼

"If you are searching for guidance, I highly recommend seeking Jessica for her readings. Her readings are deeply personal and bring a voice to both your inner feelings and higher guides. I recommend going into this experience with an open mind and unafraid of what you might reveal. After all, it was meant to be that you were brought here to seek her help."
