My Newsletter

My Newsletter #12

Hi Everybody, It’s great to write and say hello again. I hope you are all feeling well and enjoying autumn.  I want to give a special shout out to those of you who have newly joined my newsletter list, and I also want to thank those of you have been so loyal over time.

I had a really nice summer and took a vacation from work which was needed after so much expansion that I have experienced in the last six years. I have had alone time to work on my Celtic Tree Cards, an appendix to my tree book that includes ceremonies and stories, and a novel of historical fiction. It takes place in the Old Kingdom Dynasty of ancient Egypt and it is about the daughter of the Pharaoh Unas and her love for the Goddess Hathor.  I will take the rest of the fall to clean up all of these loose ends before I begin a new schedule. 

Unfortunately I had to cancel my Egypt Tour which had been set for September 27th, 2013. I have planned a new tour for Sept. 6th, 2014 and I hope that things will calm down enough for us to travel there again. I love my dear friends in Egypt and I am watching carefully as things evolve. I send my prayers for peace and understanding as they continue to go through these difficult birth pains. If you are interested in this new trip let me know and I will email you more information. This time we will wait until 6 weeks before the trip to collect $ and to make flight arrangements so that we are sure that the trip is a go.

I am completing the first year of my apprenticeship program and it has been a joy to facilitate. We have gone through the tree teachings and each apprentice has grown so much. They have created their own Calling of the Directions and also their own Guided Journey and their own Ceremony. We have participated together in many healing ceremonies and experiences as we have worked our way through the Celtic Tree Calendar. I am so very happy with their progress and the way they have developed and embraced their own power of leadership as well as their connection to Source.

The next Celtic Apprenticeship begins November 1st.  We will meet once a month for the year of 2014. You can choose to meet with me via Skype if you cannot come to my meetings in person in Seattle. I will send you more details if you are interested. I hope you will join me!

It may just be the time for another Tarot or Astrology update. I can do these via Skype or phone if not in person. Everyone needs guidance from time to time, and this time of year is awesome for looking at our lives from a higher perspective. Tree Readings can offer you guidance as well and are inexpensive.  It is great to live at a time when we can so easily chat no matter where we live.

Wishing you all the best, Sharlyn

The First Day of September

What a beautiful day it is today in Seattle and here it is the first day of September. It is still very hot today in the Pacific Northwest and there is hardly a wind at all and no clouds. I give my gratitude for one of the most beautiful summers we have had here in a long time. We are still collecting the little tomatoes and the zucchinis from our garden.  I have so enjoyed having the garden with the lettuce, onions, and raspberries. It is always hard to say goodbye to it in the fall.

I plan on writing more often and getting back to my work. But I must confess that I have been lazy and just "being" after such a huge expansion for the last few years: writing and publishing the tree book, traveling to Egypt, interviewing and writing my book on Mohamed Nazmy and Quest Travel, leading my own tour to Egypt in May of 2012, and working on other projects as well plus teaching and doing charts, tarot readings, and offering energetic healings.

Look to see me sharing more here on my blog. Love to each of you!
