I start by honoring my partners and children. In 1973 Ellen and I started the Caduceus Alternative School in western Massachusetts. We got married. I worked as a carpenter built a house and had two kids. My inner voice asked me to put everything on the line, to stop working and allow the universe to support us. This is a long story and everything worked out until it didn’t.
Jennifer came to me for a session just before my first marriage ended. She had so much golden light around her. I saw a man in her future standing next to her holding the hand of a young boy. I had no idea that person would be me and our first child as I was still married with two kids. A year after my marriage ended Jennifer magically appeared in Washington DC conference entitled “Does consciousness survives death?”.
Jennifer brought me to very different level of experiencing feminine beauty, wisdom and compassion. She taught my ears my whole body to embrace the silence and beauty of the dark and my eyes to really see more and more magic in Nature. After living in Santa Fe for seven years we settled in Ireland with three little kids. Jennifer sadly passed away a few years ago. We are still in touch. She is still teaching me!
