I'm very sorry to do this at the very last minute, but I must cancel today's live call. I was trying to power through some health related issues today, but I'm a little too out of it to make it. My apologies, everyone! Have a blessed Samhain!!

Today, I am smelling cigarette smoke. Nobody in my family is a smoker, nor have they been around anyone who smokes. I don't recognize the cigarette brand and my husband abhorred smoking. My dad quit many many years ago. I have no idea if this is a visitation of sorts but it's strange.

@Meaghan Vaughan Beautiful writing. I was skeptical of crystals to the point of ridicule when I bore the shadow. She was shattered, too. Recently, I truly learned the subtle power of crystals. I used a large Indigo Smokey Fluorite for a 3rd eye cleansing, as a request to the Divine, burning a yellow candle to completion, honoring my intention to seek alignment with YHVH as Source of Love. I've been wearing Lapus Lazuli around my neck, bringing Shiva energy in me to 3D from where I've been. 9. Hermit energy. It forms most of the numerology of my name and birthday. Lapus Lazuli resonates. In 3D, at a molecular level, fluorite can be used to manufacture HFl, hydrofluoric acid. Lapis Lazuli's color reminds me of the deep waters at the Threshold bottom of the ocean in the light, and is my favorite color. I choose to respect both perspectives. In the quantum, past the veil to the dense Threshold at planck length, the crystals speak there, too, and to what's next. In the end, intention matters most in this in between. Thank you for sharing. Your writings inspire. ᛫ᛟ᛫ᛁ᛫᛫

A Halloween Night at the Threshold Saturday, October 31 | 3:00 PM Central This Halloween, we're doing something a little different for Community Connect. As the year turns toward its darker half and we approach Samhain, we'll gather for an evening of Halloween fun, a little mystery, and a shared ceremony inspired by the idea of the veil between worlds. Across traditions, Samhain has long been associated with remembrance, transformation, and the threshold between what has been and what is yet to come. Whether you approach these ideas spiritually, symbolically, or simply with curiosity, there's a place for you in this gathering. Our central activity will be The Altar of Almost Anything — a chance to create a small, personal altar using objects that represent three themes: - Memory & Inheritance: Something connected to your past, your history, or the people and experiences that have shaped you. - The Veil & The In-Between: Something representing mystery, transition, duality, or the spaces between things. - Magic & Possibility: Something connected to creation, potential, spiritual connection, or whatever magic means to you. You'll also want something to arrange your objects on or in — a plate, bowl, tray, small table, or whatever suits your style. And if you'd like to decorate your altar with additional objects, crystals, herbs, ornaments, keepsakes, or Halloween touches, by all means, indulge your imagination! We'll share our creations, explore the meanings behind our chosen objects, and bring the evening's ceremony to a close with a blessing. Then we'll leave our altars assembled overnight as a little tribute to the threshold and the mysteries of this particular night. A few things to know: - Costumes are welcome, but absolutely optional. Come as a witch, a wizard, a wandering spirit, or simply yourself. - Participation in every part of the gathering is voluntary. You're welcome to share, observe, or simply enjoy the company. - This is not a séance or an attempt to contact anything or anyone. No messages, experiences, or special abilities are expected. We're here to celebrate, remember, create, and make room for wonder.

You made it here. Which is worth noting, because WonderWander isn't exactly on the main road. There are no billboards enthusiastically pointing the way. If you're here, something led you — and we think that's worth paying attention to. This is a space for the wonderers. The meaning-makers. The people who find themselves inexplicably moved by a symbol, a synchronicity, a line of poetry, a dream that refuses to dissolve by morning. The ones who ask questions not because they expect tidy answers, but because the asking itself feels necessary. We explore here. Together, and in our own ways. You might share a tarot spread that cracked something open. A photograph that feels like it's trying to tell you something. A philosophical rabbit hole you fell into at 2am. A poem that arrived unexpectedly. A strange and luminous moment that you haven't quite been able to explain — and aren't sure you want to. All of it belongs here. There are no prerequisites for wonder. No correct path, no required modality, no spiritual résumé needed at the door. Just genuine curiosity, and a willingness to sit with the strange and the beautiful alongside people who understand why that matters. Look around. Get comfortable with the uncomfortable. Follow what pulls you. Before you wander too far, we'd love to meet you. Introduce yourself in the comments however feels natural. Tell us your name, what brought you here, what fascinates you, what you're exploring, or simply what kind of wonder tends to follow you through life. There are no right answers. A simple hello is enough. This space will become what we create together, and every journey begins with someone taking the first step onto the path. This is WonderWander. We've been anticipating your arrival. Wander well.
