My Favourite Quote is: The greatest Gift is the ability to Give ~ That about sums it up for me! . . . But, to clarify that a bit, my Animal Guide or Spirit Animal is the RHINO, who is Guardian of Ancient Wisdom. His Gift reminds us to tread…


A bit more about me

My relationships: Husband, 3 Kitties, Mother, Brothers, and a whole slew of Family & Friends...Human & Animal ~ in this Life & the Next, incl. the best Father & Friend ever and the greatest Great-Grandma, who I know is also one of my Spirit Guides!...And, of course, TREES!
Children: My 3 Kitties are all I need!
Pets: None here, unless you count my Hubby! ; )
My education: Skyline College: AS in Natural Sciences
My skills and hobbies: Interpretive Naturalist, Bookseller, and many various others!
My passions: My Family, Friends, Animals, Magick, Books and, of course, Trees!
My motto: The greatest Gift is the ability to Give ~
Crazy facts about me: I've never quite felt Human or like I truly belonged anywhere ~ except around non-human Animals & Trees . . . But, with the help of Friends, the Rhino, and my Tree Friends, I'm learning! : )
Most embarrassing thing: I'm a total and complete Clutz & Dork! : )
My best eco-tip: Just to take up your own True Journey and find your Animal/Spirit Guide/s, as well as accept, follow & share the Gift of the Rhino ~ which I believe is a Truly Noble & Universal one (see the "Description about me" section for details)!
My eco devils: Oh SO many!!! . . . But Proctor & Gamble and Johnson & Johnson are the two that come to mind first and foremost, because they are two of the BIGGEST DEVILS!! . . . Also any/all PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES!
Smoking habits: Quit over 7 years ago! . . . BEST, SMARTEST and probably one of the biggest ECO-CONTRIBUTIONS I've ever made!
Drinking habits: I like a bit of Wine & Beer every once in a while . . . I've also been known not to refuse the occassional really good Vodka Martini ~ esp. if it has Olives in it! ; )

My favorites

Books: 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl, by Daniel Pinchbeck . . . Beyond the Indigo Children: The New Children and the Coming of the Fifth World, by P. M. Atwater, L. H. Atwater
Movies: Mindwalk, What the Bleep Do We Know?, Lord of the Rings . . . And MANY, MANY Others ~ I'm a real Movie Buff (esp. those made from Children's and/or Young Adult Fiction Books, which is what I usually read)!
Music: Enigma, Evanescence, Sarah Machlaughlan, Loreena Mckennitt, Dido, Clannad, Celtic Woman . . . And MANY Others (I especially love Ancient & Ethnic Music/Beats, incl. Celtic, Moroccan, Middle-Easter, Etc.)!
Food: Jugoslavian (Croatian/Serbian, Etc), Medetirranean, Middle-Eastern, Moroccan, Etheopian, Indian, Thai, Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, Filipino . . . And MANY, MANY Others ~ I'm also a real FOOD BUFF (I basically LOVE anything Yummy ~ esp. if it's MEATLESS)
Travels: Besides where I am now (Western USA), I've been to the East Coast (Boston, New York & New Jersey), Jugoslavia (Incl. Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Dalmacia) and France. I'd love to see the British Isles & Germany, esp. Glastonbury, Rothenburg &the Black Forest
Quote: ~ The greates Gift is the ability to Give ~
Tree species: The ROWAN, of course! . . . Although, I've always love the Oak, as well!
Flower: Rose, of course (which is of the same Family as the Rowan: Rosacea) ~ but I've actually always loved Roses, even before I knew the Rowan was my Birth Tree! . . . I also love Sun Flowers ~ they just make me Happy!
Role model: My Father thought me SO MANY things, most importantly a Love & Respect for other Animals & Plants! My Mother taught me to never lose my Childlike Innocence & Magick! My Brother, the best example of Honor! My cat, Cowboy, the epitomy of LOVE! Steve Irwin!
Moment: At one point as a child I actaully saw nothing but a Black Tunnel & a pin-prick of Light! As the Light receded, I cried out for Help & slowly the Light started to grow! If it wasn't for my Mother, my dog Benji & the Pin-Prick of Light, I would NOT be here
Way to Relax: Just with my Family ~ my Hubby & my Kitties, and my Friends! . . . I also love to curl up with a good Book!
