Bizzaro Movie Night at Hollywood Bowl
Movie Night at The Hollywood Bowl is always a fun event with my mom, my bro and my sister in law. We sit in the box seats and have a delicious gourmet meal and marvel that the temperature is at least 20 degrees cooler even though the Bowl is a mere 22 minutes away.
Tonight's program was 20th Century Fox's Big Picture which on paper sounds really really good, but the choices of film clips and scores were so bizzare, I wondered if the person in charge of putting the program together had some sort of twisted sense of humor.
The night started off with a 1924 silent film directed by John Ford. Sounds good, right? Well, after the attack on the train by a tribe of Native Americans slaughtering each and every one of the men including the poor guy who climbed a telegraph pole to morse code someone for help, I figured it could only get better. But, it didn't. Each of the films depicted tonight were so violent, I ended up cringing through most of the program.
I know 20th Century Fox has a shitload of great films in their vaults and I know there are quite a few with some great scores. It was shocking to see the choices that were made tonight for the evening's performance. The only good thing (besides the company of my family and the delicious food) was that when I got home, Mad Men was waiting for me in my DVR.
My friend Sheri called me today and said, "Hey, what are you doin'? You sound so calm." I suppose that is how I get when I am in the zone making new jewelry. Today, three new pieces were born.

I always manage to find a little bit of magic in each and every day and today was no different when a little bit of magic showed up at my front door.
Linda Becker is a healer and intuitive who lives in Portland, Oregon. She has written a wonderful book called Living with Soul; The Great Spiritual Revolution. This is the first of the series with the second book focusing on Relationships. Linda and I had never met in person until today, though we have been kindred spirits for awhile. She stopped by for a quick visit and a hug with her husband James, and her daughter Heather. When I saw Linda in person, I felt as if I had known her my entire life.
We sat around my kitchen table exchanging stories and laughing, and found great irony that my son and his gal pal left LA for Portland at exactly the same minute Linda and her husband left Portland for LA. As if the two cities could maintain some balance.
Linda and I have a mutual friend, Tom Leavey, whose CD's of Healing Music are featured on my website. (Click HERE to find out more). In fact, it was Linda who inspired Tom to step into his true path and create these amazing CD's.
After our brief visit (and a little healing), we bid our goodbyes knowing that this visit was the first of many. I look forward to the next time, and the next hug.
I used to travel all the time. I love traveling, and the whole process that goes along with it, but for a few years now (since I got my little dog), I haven't traveled like I used to. In fact, I don't really travel at all. But next week I am going back east to my hometown in NJ to visit old friends and I am super excited. So, I've been packing my bag, in my head. I do it while I am driving mostly, which isn't a good idea when the car behind me honks because I neglected to notice the green light. It's really fun to look forward to seeing everyone, going to the Deli to get the BEST SANDWICH EVER ON THE PLANET, and of course visit the house where I grew up. It's a quick trip, a drive by really, but it will be super fun. I'm not gone yet, but in my head, I'm already there.
I can't believe it is the last day of August. In 22 minutes it will be September. Things change in September. I feel a seriousness in the air which I probably identify with that Virgo energy of school starting. On this last day of August, I went to yoga which was an astounding experience, more so than on other days. A seriousness for my practice, if you will. After yoga I had a wonderful troika with two amazing entrepreneurs, Stacy Kupfer of The Pampered Chef, and Jennifer Gerard, owner of White Now Whitening. I love troikas. It is a meeting of three that allows for friendships and business building. Tonight was sushi with Lisa Madison, interior designer. Saying goodbye to summer even though the official autumnal equinox is weeks away, I'm feeling the winds of change.
Tomorrow's radio show is an hour of answering your psychic questions. Please call 646-929-2242 between 3PM PT and 4PM PT. It is going to be an amazing show~

I just finished reading Patti Smith's book Just Kids and I loved it so much I just had to share this story.
In 1973, my boyfriend was in the band Eightballs, and every Sunday night they shared the bill with the New York Dolls at the Mercer Arts Center in NYC. I was in college at the time, but I would hop on the bus outside the school gates and take the 2 hour ride into Manhattan, pick up the subway at Port Authority, exit on 4th by the Waverly Theatre, and then walk the 8 blocks or so to the Mercer Arts Center. By then it was nighttime and in the winter it was cold.
The night would open with an unknown poet named Patti Smith. She would sit on the floor playing a toy piano and read her poetry and sometimes sing a little diddy. Her entourage included a woman I thought was her girlfriend. Patti wore all black and had a beatnik vibe about her. She was not friendly towards me or my friend Janet who was the girlfriend of the bass player of Eightballs, (Janet and I are still friends to this day), and quite honestly, we did not extend ourselves towards her. In truth, Patti Smith seemed kind of scary and off limits. After her set, she would take off, and a band from Long Island called Teenage Lust would do their set complete with red boas and black lingerie.
My impression of Patti Smith at the time was that she was a lesbian drug addict. What I found out from reading her book was that not only was she as straight as an arrow in both drugs, drink, and sexuality, the woman I thought was her lover was actually her sister.
Patti Smith's book, Just Kids, is brilliantly written. As she tells her tale of love and life with Robert Mapplethorpe, I am sorry I didn't take the moment to smile and say hello back in the days of the Mercer Arts Center. I was 17 at the time, and more interested in dancing and boyfriends, and college life. I had no idea what was happening in Patti Smith's world which was full of dedication to art and poetry. We really were existing on two completely different planes. However, our paths did cross, and I am grateful I had a glimpse of her journey firsthand. It turns out that we are both from New Jersey (me, north, she south) and come from close knit and supportive families.
Just Kids is truly a love story. A love story where the leading character is art. It is beautifully written and heartfelt. I can still picture Patti Smith so vividly from back then, and after reading her story I feel honored that she opened herself up for all the world to see, hear, and feel. Thank you, Patti.
"Great story, Patti is an amazing force. I'm glad you could find out even more
about your past, now...in the future." Julie Molinare www.thegrassisalwaysgreener.net.
Note to Julie - A big thank you to your husband Loren for lending me this great book.

Tonight I am switching hats and going down to LA to see my son and his gal pal at their album release party for Cobra Lillies newest album Crazy Summer Sweaters. Both of them are part of this amazing band, and my son's song Time Travel Girl is one of the cuts on the album. Woohoo! I am a proud mom.
I'm so glad I felt less fuzzy today. That full moon in pisces and this triple digit heat really had me going. Today was completely productive with healings, errands, and a lot of computer work. All of that allowed me to totally justify my online shoe shopping this morning.
The topic for today's radio broadcast included How to Reclaim Your Power. As promised, here is the verbage to do The Process. This is based on Robert Scheinfeld's book Busting Loose from the Money Game (a must read!). To hear today's broadcast simply click on the player above.
This process works every time even if you don't believe it. Whenever you feel as if you are out of control, or filled with anxiety or stress, this process will open the way to release your discomfort, and reclaim your power. You can use in regards to any situation including relationshiop and money worries.
Instructions:
Step 1 - First, fully feel what is bothering you. Feel it to your core. Whether it is anxiety or stress or anger, feel it, feel it, feel it.!
Step 2 - Then say, "I am the Power and Presence of God!" (or Universe of Spirit or what other words work for you). Even if it feels silly to say that, say it anyway. It works silently or aloud.
Step 3 - Then say, "This is not real. It's all an illusion. Simply made up."
Step 4 - Then say, "I RECLAIM MY POWER FROM THIS CREATION NOW!" Feel your power coming back into your body (Even if you don't feel anything , it is working). Feel it surging through your body from your head to your toes.
Step 5 - After you fully feel your power return to you, give thanks. You can say, "I give thanks that the perfect situation came about so I could reclaim my power."
Tips
1. You can do this process for anything that causes discomfort.
2. You can do this process as much as you want. There is no limit.
3. You can do it silently or aloud.
4. The more you do it, the more you will experience pleasant moment awareness.
I feel very fortunate that two of my clients surprised me with testimonials about their healing experience. It is a wonderful validation of why I do this work. One was a distant session and one was done in person. Thank you for allowing me to share their words, and thank you Allison and Maria for making my day. Many, many blessings and love, Harriette
Testimonial #1
"I just love Harriette Knight! She
has such a great, uplifting spirit. Her healing session was incredible. I
actually experienced the presence of Ascended Masters in my room, completely
unexpected and amazing! She is not only a great healer but an inspiration to me!
Her healings have transformed my life and helped me connect better with Spirit.
Personally speaking Harriette, you are an inspiration to me. I first heard of you when you
were on my friend (fellow astrologer) Dionysus' Blog Talk radio show. And I love that
you do astrology, mediumship, healing plus are creative/artistic, designing
jewelery as well. At the time I first heard you, I was trying to figure out what
to do with my life. I went to art school (creative, yes) but didn't do that. I'm
pretty knowledgeable about astrology and also getting back into developing my
mediumship abilities working with angels, and healing. SO...as you
can probably figure out--you came along at the right time! I believe through
you, the Universe was telling me that I can do it all--because you are
doing it! Quite extraordinary!
Also wanted to tell you, since the healing, at night I've
been seeing colors/light which I believe are angels. I usually just feel them
but now I'm actually seeing the light/colors! So this is from your Reconnective
Healing! I hope I can meet you in person one day."
Love and blessings, Allison Ahearn, Massachusetts
Testimonial #2
"I can tell you from the first 10 minute
session at a party I was hooked on Harriette Knight! Not only did she
surprise me with information since I was hesitant, but she is such a
lovely calming woman in person. I
had my first healing session largely due to so many changes in my life. I learned alot
about myself that day and what was going on and why. Harriette gave me
information that propelled me to start listening and focusing on
handling my life in a better way. I was really having fun and enjoying my new attitude, my
new energy, I felt alive and happier than I have felt in years.
Something had changed within me and it got me curious to learn more.
Tragically, I met a man who I was having fun with but he really
disappointed me. His news hit me like a ton of bricks, I felt helpless
out of control and worried that my new found happiness was about to be
shattered forever. I called Harriette and asked if
she had time for a healing, I needed her help asap! After my second
healing with Harriette, I was totally calm and felt so much better I
really had trouble understanding how this could be. Again, I was told
information that surprised me and also made me feel secure in that
indeed someone is looking out for me. My troubles drifted away and
although I think about it still, I now have some new coping skills. All I can
say with certainty is that Harriette Knight is wonderful. I look
forward to another healing when that time arrives. I am delighted I have
found Reconnective Healing and Harriette Knight. Thank you so much."

It felt so good to take a couple of days off, I thought it might be challenging to get into the groove today but it wasn't - suprisingly. It turned into a wonderful day with some surprise healing clients and a huge surprise with a phone call from my best friend from my freshman year of college, Mona. What fun!!! We have not been in contact since 1977 when we "accidentally" ran into each other at Fisherman's Wharf in SF when I was traveling from Florida and she from NY. Small world. I have looked for her for YEARS but couldn't find her until.....Facebook, where everyone shows up eventually. What fun! I'm so glad for these full circle reunions.
Many people ask me about the healing work I do, and this morning I had a distant session with a client 3000 miles away. She wrote me a beautiful email validating each and every one of the psychic messages that came through for her. The messages are a "bonus" to the healing session since the energy goes where it needs to go, but I find that the messages are equally healing and validating. I thought I would share more about Reconnective Healing for today's blog.
A practitioner of Reconnective Healing uses a higher frequency of
energy to make it possible for a client’s body to heal itself. The
practitioner may or may not know what needs healing. The energy has an
intelligence far beyond human, and will go where it needs to on
physical, emotional, mental or spiritual levels. It was introduced by
Dr. Eric Pearl, who I was fortunate to be a teacher’s assistant for
during his Los Angeles seminars in the early 2000′s. Dr. Pearl
continues to bring the work to numerous cities and countries around the
world. Need a good read? Check out his book “The Reconnection: Heal
Others, Heal Yourself.” Great stuff!
Reconnective Healing is a very gentle “hands off” technique that has
a calming effect on the client. It can be especially effective for
numerous ailments including injuries, pain relief, diseases, and
anxiety. Some people going through transitional periods in their life
benefit greatly from a session. It can give peace of mind, and
validation to what is happening at the moment.
You do not have to believe in or understand Reconnective Healing for it
to work. It is not religious, and does not violate any religious or
medical codes. Reconnective Healing helps the body shift frequencies
to a higher vibration for better general health. Sometimes people are
just curious, or are drawn to having a session without knowing why.
I am fortunate that during healing sessions I receive psychic and
intuitive messages that are specifically for the client’s benefit.
After the completion of the session, I share those messages with you.
Often relatives who have passed relay messages which can be very
healing, and certain ages from your life may come up to be released.
Perhaps these ages caused roadblocks along the way during your life
journey. The messages are always helpful and validating.
It is generally recommended that one to three sessions take place.
The healing continues to work even after the session is completed.
Clients are fully clothed and lie down comfortably on a massage table
with their eyes closed. The healing work can be done in person or
distantly which is why people all over the world can benefit from it.
The energy is so powerful it can be felt during the broadcast of my
weekly radio show Harriette Knight’s Psychic & Healing Hour on Blog
Talk Radio, through the line of healing jewelry I design, and during
the mini readings done at special events and parties. Even after just
10 minutes, a woman experienced 100% relief from chronic migraines, and
another client who bought a bracelet found her carpal tunnel had
disappeared. For more healing stories and testimonials, please click HERE.
At the time of your session you recieve the healing, and a CD of all the messages that come through. The cost is $165. For more information or to book an appointment, please click HERE or call 661-254-4747.
I woke up before my alarm went off which was set for 7:45 AM. For those of you who know me, this is semi unheard of since I go to bed so late and make my first appts in the morning for 11AM. But I asked my guides and angels to wake me up on time and refreshed and of course, they did. (Thank you).
Today was the boutique fundraiser for the Domestic Violence Center of SCV. I was supposed to be there at 9AM. The great thing is, it was about an mile away so I left my house at 8:58 AM. Because I was doing psychic readings and not jewelry, it was one trip from the car and bam, I was set up in a flash.
Lovely, lovely people.
I've been doing vendor events for 7 years or so, so I know quite a few people in the vendor world. What was so cool were all the people I saw this morning that I knew from so many of my many incarnations as a Santa Clarita resident. I saw friends from when I was on the Board of Directors of the Chamber of Commerce back in the early 1990's, and I saw moms from my Picasso's Playmate's days. It was wonderful to connect and re-connect.
I did a couple of readings before lunch, and then Jen Gerard (White Now Whitening)and I jettisoned out of there to attend this month's WE of SCV business luncheon event. Luncheon #4 this week.
Usually when I go to the WE luncheon every month, I'm not even talking since I usually wake up just about an hour beforehand, but today I was bright eyed and bushy tailed since I had already been working and on a roll. The luncheon was beyond fabulous. The energy was so HIGH and I just love love love my friends from WE (Women Entrepreneurs of Santa Clarita Valley). The speaker today was Maurice DiMino who I have known now for nearly two years through my affiliation with Craig Duswalt, you know, the Rock Star System for Success guy and one of my mentors. Without Craig's amazing seminar, I don't know if my Chakra book (and hence the rest of my life) would have manifested such as it did. Craig and his wife Natasha Duswalt were also there at the luncheon. A rarity that a guy was allowed to join our group.
Maurice's specialty is public speaking and though I have heard Maurice speak many times, I found myself taking copious notes and eagerly signed up for his boot camp in October. That was very much NOT like me since I hear many speakers but remain unmoved to take their seminar or workshop. With Maurice, I was sooooooo there! I utilize his template for my own speeches, but would surely love to improve my presentation. I mean, who wouldn't? I was very impressed by what he had to say and plan to utilize what I learned immediately.
After the luncheon, Jen and I raced back to the boutique where I did psychic readings/healings non stop for 4 hours. It was incredible and I met the most beautiful and amazing people who touched my heart. I am so blessed to be able to do what I do. After 6PM, I was tapped, and couldn't even utter another word. My voice was gone, and so was my energy.
Fortunately, my daughter made me dinner (orange chicken, rice, and veggies) which was so delicious and I lounged on the couch watching television which is how I clear my head at night, and I felt full and sated and completely, completely blessed.
It is early now (before midnight) but I'm off to bed. Two healing clients scheduled for tomorrow and not another luncheon, but a dinner party! How totally and completely fun.
Today was another super fun luncheon. This one was to celebrate my friend Denise's birthday. A bunch of us met at Tea Garden which I just love. Their mushroom chicken wrap is completely YUMMY! While I was there I got a call from my friend Kri who said, "It sounds like you are busy. I wanted to see if you wanted to eat at the Tea Garden today." I'm not kidding. She really said that. I responded, "I'm at the Tea Garden! Why don't you join us?" So she did which made the party even more fun.
After that it was time for my radio show which was all about Mercury Retrograde. To hear the broadcast simply click on the player above and hit play. Enjoy, enjoy!
All day tomorrow (from 9-9) I will be at Valencia Lakeshore Clubhouse doing psychic readings. There will be 20 other additional vendors raising money for the Domestic Violence Center of SCV. Great cause, and a great group of vendors. I'll be taking a break for lunch (Luncheon #4) when I go over to hear Maurice DiMino speak at the WE of SCV luncheon. His specialty is Speaking, which as you know, is one of my favorite things (next to writing).
On Friday, no luncheons (yet), but I do have a dinner party to attend. A totally fun and delicious week!
This is the week of luncheons. Yesterday's mastermind group (and luncheon) was at my house and as I mentioned before, was wonderful. Today, my friend Sheri Varela was the guest speaker for WE of CV which is Women Entrepreneurs of Conejo Valley. Early in the morning (early for me anyway - 10AM), Sheri picked me and Julie Molinare up to drive with her to the event out in Thousand Oaks.
It was great!
The women of WE of CV are equally warm and smart and as supportive as our WE of SCV group. We really are WE Sisters! Sheri did a great job and the feedback was excellent. Being the slicer and dicer I am, I had a page of notes for her at the end with tips to pull all her excellent information together. She has such a moving story, fantastic information, and high energy; you can't help but love her. And love her they did.
All of us had such a good time networking, making new friends, and sharing the WE experience, I think we were a bit surprised. Initially we just went to support Sheri, and found that WE of CV supported us! Win/win!
Two clients this evening and luncheon #3 planned for tomorrow to celebrate Denise Van Arsdale-West's birthday. Gotta love Tea Garden!
Mercury retrograde looms large. Tune in to Harriette Knight's Psychic and Healing Hour at 3PM PT tomorrow (Wednesday) to find out how it affects you! Simply call 646-929-2242 to ask a question or click HERE at 3PM PT.
Women Moving Forward is the name of the mastermind group I am a part of. (dangling participle, sorry). There are five of us and we have been meeting for over 18 months. It's an amazing combination of business and personal strategies that move us forward so we can achieve our goals and plans.
It's wonderful.
Today our meeting was at my house. Cousin Lisa left this morning and on her heels my four friends arrived. They are Julie Molinare from The Grass is Always Greener Landscape Designs, Sheri Varela of Sheri Baby T-Shirts, Tami Smight, Tami Smight Interiors, and Candice Hirst, Silpada Designs. I served the most yummy lunch thanks to Stone Fire Grill. I wish there were leftovers, but that's not usually the case. (bummer). The meeting, as always, was excellent.
The rest of the day was filled with some loose ends getting tied up and booking clients for the week. This is a week of luncheons. Tomorrow we head out to Thousand Oaks to support Sheri Varela who is speaking for WE of Conejo Valley. Her topic "From Sissy to Sassy." Better get my attitude on before I go. Wink, wink.
It was wonderful to wake up fully refreshed after being so utterly exhausted yesterday, and Cousin Lisa and I had a whole day to play. We went to the Saugus Swap Meet and got lots of goodies none of which cost over $5. We even got matching button down shirts. Then we both went and got haircuts - a brave thing to do, but fun nonetheless, and then went over to Mom's house for a visit. Since this has been an eating weekend, we also fit in some time to get fish tacos at the new place on the corner of Seco and Bouquet. Really yummy!
I've rigged my DVR for the NY feeds of Mad Men, Hung, and Entourage, so now even before midnight all my tv watching is complete! (Ah, the simple pleasures of life). I'm going to crawl into bed and read. This is an extremely busy week coming up with numerous luncheons, birthday parties, mastermind meetings, radio shows, psychic readings and vendor events, and more and more and more! And just as today was full of surprises, I anticipate that this upcoming week will be no different.
Hell, I used to go out dancing and get home at 3, 4, 5, 6 in the morning, no problem, but hey, that was over 30 years ago. In fact, that was when Cherie and Hedley and I hung out and danced till dawn in the discos, but getting home at 2 in the morning and NOT EVEN DRINKING, I still had a hard time getting my mojo working today.
I woke up and did yoga which was great and then I could've easily taken a nap, but my cousin Lisa was coming to visit so I mustered up some energy to go to lunch, go clothes shopping, hang and talk and THEN take a nap before going back into LA tonight to see Ema (my son's gal pal) perform for her birthday show.
We didn't make it to LA.
I just couldn't. I couldn't move off the couch even after taking a nap. Wow. That was new for me.
My cousin and I ended up chowing down some BBQ ribs and mashed potatoes and watching a really bad movie on cable. I'd still be on the couch, but my bed sounds a lot more comfortable, so this is a mere blog stop along the way. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.
People simply do not understand the power of a Sloppy Joe or Roast Beef Joe from the Millburn Deli unless they have experienced it firsthand. Oh, there's lots of talk about it - all over Facebook, in fact. The number one conversation about Millburn is hands down about the Deli and their joes. I kid you not. It's like a drug.
In one month I will be in Millburn getting my fix. I am so excited. Drooling, in fact. The irony is that today I got a text from my brother and his wife (and kids) who live in Los Angeles like I do, with the message - "Heading to Millburn....." I knew they were back east to go to Cooperstown NY, but I had no idea they were going for a visit into town. That's what we called it.... going into town. You went into town to go to the deli and get a joe and iced tea. You went uptown if you lived in Millburn and downtown if you lived in Short Hills. My brother and his family were going into town.
I got a picture text first of the house I grew up in. We moved from that house exactly 36 years ago, the day Nixon resigned, and there just like a picture postcard was a reminder of home. Then I got an email from my other brother who lives in Florida which also had a picture attached. He said, "You probably got this already.." and it was a picture of my sister in law inside the Millburn Deli probably ordering a joe for herself - drool, drool. It was a picture they had spared me, but what got me through with a certain amount of ease was the knowing that I would be able to delve into a sloppy joe for myself in a month. Less than a month actually, if I were to count the days. My favorite is a Roast Beef Joe old school.
I'm writing this blog as I wait for the appropriate time to go into the city. Here in LA we say going into the city which isn't anything like saying it when you go from NJ into NY and really go into the city. It's my friend Hedley's birthday today. We've been friends since I lived in Toronto which was in 1979. That's a long time ago. His partner, Cherie Steinberg, was my roommate. Now she's Hedley's roommate and they live on the Westside. It's a marvel that after a million years, we are still together. I love that.
It'll be a night of LA Scene-ery which will start off first at Sur for dinner on Robertson and then end at Voyeur which is THE club to see (all) and be seen. Happy Birthday, Hedley!
Every 3 months, I drive my mom to City of Hope so she can get her seal of approval after her scan. Today was that day, and the weather was delicious. I spent most of it in the meditation garden at City of Hope reading a wonderful book by Ron McLarty called The Memory of Running. Really, really, really good. It was a long day, lots of driving, but a good one; getting that seal of approval from my mom's doc is completely worth it.
Tonight was meditation class and equally wonderful. I feel grateful and blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful family members and friends. The fun (and more driving) continues over the next 3 days, with some healing thrown in, of course. Stay tuned.
Today's radio show was so cool - it was more like a conversation than a show. We talked about yoga and healing and even Burlaphead the Stronger, my son's new book. We covered Energy Hugs and tidbits about this and that. Live radio. You never know how it's going to turn out. To listen to today's conversation, please click on the player above. And please join us each Wednesday between 3 and 4 PM PT on Blog Talk Radio.
By the way, for those who wanted information about the Swopper (office chair), here is the link http://www.sittinginmotion.net.Or call Jay at 800-426-4633.
My son has written a book. It's called "Burlaphead the Stronger." I cannot stop reading it. I believe it is brilliant. My son has always been a gifted writer, and his articles always left me wanting more. And now I have it, a whole book. It is available on Amazon in a Kindle version and on Lulu.com as well. I found out you don't need a Kindle to download a Kindle book. You can simply download a free Kindle to your computer and read the books that way. Now I want a real Kindle, but unfortunately they are on back order and will not be shipped until I am already on the plane to NJ, and if I can't read on the plane, well, what's the point. Here is the link for my son's book (below). His name is Jesse Knight. It is like nothing you've ever read before, and in my opinion it is like nothing that's ever been written before. I can't even describe it. I'm not sure what genre it is called. Fantasy? I'm not sure. Maybe. But, it might be the most visually descriptive piece of work I've ever read. And sometimes while reading it, I wince and want to close my eyes. That's how unreal and real it is. I mean there is a talking guinea pig. All I know is that I've been sitting here at my computer and reading for most of the day. It's a good thing I was laying low today.

A lot can happen at 1 in the morning. That is when I decided to purchase a Round Trip ticket to NJ to see my high school friends. It is so rare that I get back east, I suppose it is time for a visit. My best friend from 7th grade is sooooooooooo excited, and in one month she and I will be able to stay up all night laughing and inevitably talking about boys. It's going to be really fun, and I look forward to seeing so many people I have not seen in a very long time. The irony was not lost on me, that I booked my ticket EXACTLY 36 years to the day that my family moved from NJ to FL. Though I was in college at the time, the move was devastating to me. Eventually I got over it, of course, I mean 36 years heals a lot of old wounds, and when my friend Ellen said, I have an extra car for you while you are here, I responded with, "I have no idea how to get anywhere, it has been way too long."
It'll be great to go into NYC, too and see the Big Bambu exhibit at the Met - oh, I love NY!
After doing the first part of a Reconnection this morning, I joined my friend Aimee and her daughter Nicole to see Step UP 3D. Okay, I admit it, I love dance movies and since I already knew that without the 3D effects Step Up would be severely mediocre, I just put on the special glasses and sat back and enjoyed the ride. Afterwards a fun trip to the Dollar Store and Big Lots to get some things I didn't even know I needed and then gorged on lots and lots of BBQ.
Very nice day! Spent a portion of it outside in my outdoor sanctuary when my friend Sheri came over to visit. So nice!! This was after doing some jewelry repairs, answering numerous phone calls, and not getting out of my pajamas until I had to. I eventually did have to because tonight was an event at The Courtyard Marriott where I was a vendor. It was great! And great fun, too! It's so much fun to hang with friends and work at the same time.
Tomorrow I am putting my healing practitioner hat back on, but tonight the jewelry hat was fun to wear.
Today was a treat! The C.A.R.E. Speakers Tour featuring 4 fabulous speakers, Craig Duswalt (former manager of Guns n' Roses), Glenn Morshower (from the tv show "24"), Barbara De Angelis (author of 14 books including "How to Make Love All the Time"), and Tom Antion (internet guru) were right here in Santa Clarita! A bunch of us turned out for this special, special kick off.
Anytime Craig does anything close to home, I am there! It was because of one of his fabulous seminars that my book CHAKRA POWER! was born. His 'How to Write a Book in 30 Days' forum has become a favorite of many. I have the privilage of writing and publishing the first book of anyone who took his course. To date, 57 people have written and published books!! He's one of my mentors for sure.
All the speakers were fantastic today and I felt a huge shift in my own consciousness while listening to Barbara De Angelis. She addressed something that had been on my mind just last night and immediately put me at ease. The right teachers always show up at the right time, don't they!
In addition to this high powered group, another speaker was having her debut. My dear friend, Sheri Varela, owner of Sheri Baby T-Shirts, and the author of "Affirmations with Attitude" was the guest speaker at Lunch and Learn over at the Betty Ferguson Foundation. She was great! Her story is inspirational, entertaining, and heartwarming. The support for her did not go unnoticed, with standing room only!
It was really amazing, too, that Craig changed the schedule of his event to accommodate Sheri and those of us who were jumping down the road to see her. After Sheri spoke, we all raced back for the second half of the C.A.R.E. Speakers Tour. By the way, CARE stands for Celebrity, Author, Rock Star, and Entrepreneur. Clever, huh?
Here are some pictures.

Afterwards, Sheri and I celebrated her success with dinner at California Pizza Kitchen. Double yummy! It was a fabulous day.

I hope you enjoy the tips and utilize them so you can heal old wounds and love love love love yourself.
The Cardinal Cross, exact on Aug. 6th is really kicking my butt. EXHAUSTED. A very unusual state of being for me. With my sun, moon (late sag but still within orb), mercury, and north node in the early degrees of Capricorn, I am dancing a samba with pluto that doesn't quit. Ultimately I know the effects are going to be stellar, in fact, I am already seeing the signs, but right now, this minute, the only thing I want to see is my pillow.
Was I surprised tonight when Ali picked Roberto? YOU BET! When I watch tv or a movie, I get totally sucked in like the rest of the world. I love being surprised! Even when watching the movie The Sixth Sense, I didn't get that Bruce Willis was dead until my friend Jacqui blurted it out at the end. It's fun to be surprised!
All day I could not wait to watch the season finale of The Bachelorette. Okay, I admit that is kind of shallow and lame, but I didn't care. I was completely caught up this season and it was the guiltiest of pleasures.
Tonight did not disappoint, and Ali and Roberto looked completely head over heels in love. I even shed a tear or two for them. Roberto is a HOTTIE!!! I'd pick him, too!! (Though I loved Chris, AND his dad!).
Pretty much that was my day except for lying on the couch reading a wonderful book by Alice Hoffman, one of my favorite writers ever, and talking on the phone to old friends. My son visited, which is always a treat, and my daughter is digging her new bathroom. She's fighting her way out of a cold and sinusy thing so I hope she bounces back soon too. One of my reasons for redoing the bathroom was because it is a health sector in my house (feng shui wise) and my daughter always seems to be sporting some kind of sinus ailment. It is my hope that by redoing the bathroom will shift that in some way. So far, it is a huge release of energy (and use of tissues). Thanks for sending good thoughts her way.
Back to work tomorrow with clients and yoga. A great day planned!

Weekend Redecorating and Family
My daughter's bathroom is finished and looks fabulous. Like a breath of fresh air, very beachy and breathy. It took all of today to find the perfect rug, some wall accessories and paint the light switch. It's funny, but I think the light switch turned out to be my most favorite thing in there. I love painting and it's been a long time since I had a brush in my hand, so it felt really good to redo the light switch; it looks so good! I should've taken before and after pics, but my impatience gets the better of me. I know, it's just a light switch, but it really really looks great. LOL.
What began last weekend with the surprise visit from my brother and nephew from Florida, culminated today with everyone coming back from their week in Mammoth. The pictures they took were amazing; it was almost like I was there. We all met up at Stonefire Grill, oh my, so yummy, I mean really delicious, and it was a great treat to be all together once again before my brother and nephew fly out in the morning back to Orlando where they live, and my other brother, sister in law, and 2 nephews who live in LA can get back to their busy busy life.
Here's a treat - the August Easy Art project is posted! How about some Spin Art? Your kids will want to do this for hours and so will you! Click HERE to find out how to do it easily.
One more thing! New article posted for Scene in SCV! It's called LISTEN TO YOUR INTUITION, and is a how to article by....moi! Please click HERE to read it!
It is just so like me to decide at 4 in the afternoon that it's time to redecorate the bathroom. This is my daughter's/guest bathroom and I actually loved the Kokopeli thing I had going on in there, but my daughter expressed interest in changing things up a bit, and I want to respect her feelings, afterall it really is her bathroom first and foremost.
So after I spent most of the day over at the Hyatt supporting my friends at the New You Woman Expo, I hooked up with mom to begin my search for the perfect bathroom accessories. I needed a mirror, a shower curtain, possibly a shelf and maybe a rug. All in all, not a whole lot, but you start with one thing and it just trickles down to all the rest.
So, now I have a work in progress. My daughter knows nothing of any of this and will certainly be shocked when she comes in from work in the wee hours of the morning to see no sign of kokopeli in sight, but a breath of linen and white and a gorgeous cherry wood beveled mirror (Score at Goodwill!). Like I said, it is still a work in progress and I probably should've conferred with my daughter since it is her bathroom, but when I get bitten by the redecorating bug, I just can't help myself and wait another minute to get started.
A couple of things need to be returned tomorrow and a couple of things need to be added, but it's always good to move things around to get the chi moving.

Movie Marathon - Double Feature
Today was a real day off with my friend Aimee and I going to the movies to see "The Kids are Alright", then grabbing a bite to eat and going back to the movies to see "Toy Story 3". What fun. It was exactly what I needed to sit in a movie theater and veg out. It's the best way for me to clear my head (that, and watching tv). So, thanks, Aimee, for a really fun day!
I just updated the Upcoming Events page with some great events. You can check it out HERE and mark your calendars!
I spent the morning reading Tony Hsieh's book Delivering Happiness which details the story of Zappos.com and how it went from zero to being sold to Amazon for 1.2 billion dollars. A great read!! Very inspiring. In fact, I talked to my friend Sheri today about taking a day trip to Las Vegas to have a tour of Zappos which is something they do daily. It sounds like an amazing place, and having read the story, I want to see it first hand.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, today was a day of errands. A welcome change to the general busy-ness of recent days.
I'm a workaholic. Not in a bad way. I just love working. I love it! Though today I was feeling really really exhausted since I had not had a break in weeks. So... I thought I would take a day off which meant that I wasn't going to rush around. I had a deadline for an article so I spent the morning writing that, and then I went to yoga. At yoga I decided I needed more yoga so I am working on a schedule to compliment my already busy schedule. I did spend some time in my outdoor sanctuary since today was not a day to spend inside. The weather was PERFECT, I mean PERFECT as if it were planned by a designer for a film. I did have healing clients, but they were distant sessions so I didn't even have to change out of my yoga clothes. That, in a nutshell, describes my day off which in actuality was really blissful. I took my dog for a walk and marveled at all the crape myrtle trees in bloom. They really are gorgeous. And I spent a lot of the time on the phone talking to friends, clients, family. I feel much more relaxed knowing that I took it as easy as I could. It's not an easy feat for me to take a day off. And this pseudo day off suited me just fine.
......all I wanted to do was lie down on the couch and watch The Bachelorette. Okay, that may not be much of a stretch, but when I started to think about it the minute I woke up this morning, I knew I had hit a wall.
It wasn't to be, however, until I put in a full day's work. Met some amazing women from my WE of SCV group first for a great lunch at Lazy Dog. Renee' Coleman the brilliant Dream Doctor, Tami Lindahl the Skinny Jean Coach, and Stella the Skin Care Expert were my lunch companions today. What a powerhouse group. Tami will be speaking this Saturday at the Hyatt for the Women's Expo - check her (and her great arms) out at around 2:30PM.
A marvelous healing session followed and then some phone calls, emails, the bank, the post office, and I have to admit I stole a couple of minutes to regroup in my outdoor sanctuary. It was absolutely gorgeous out there today.
Finally it was couch time. Ahhhhhhhh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh!!!! I almost forgot! How could I forget? My online course for Daily Om has been LAUNCHED!!! It's called HOW TO FIRE UP YOUR CHAKRAS! If you are looking for a wonderful online class, this 8 week course might be just what you had in mind. It's fun, interactive, educational, and can be life changing! You get written lessons plus audio, video, and photos, AND this fantastic course is very affordable. In fact, you pick how much you want to pay for it! Click HERE to find out more.

Quick Sunday Recap
Sometimes it feels like there isn't a moment to breathe!
There were moments today when I did not feel calm. I blamed it on full moonitis and I could be right about that. Or it could be that so much was happening at once (more full moonitis) with my family here and lots of comings and goings and gatherings in the kitchen, and my friend Ronnie (also a client) requiring my attention. It wasn't until 6:37PM PT tonight when the moon was exact that I actually was able to let go of the stress of the day.
At that moment I was driving on the 405 into Westwood and the best 3 songs came on via my Ipod. Ronnie and I met at the parking garage after doing an incredible healing session that left both of us as speechless as two talkers can get. We then went to the Geffen to see Bonnie Franklin (my friend Danny's cousin), Tyne Daly, and Glenne Headley perform in "Love, Loss, and the Dress I Wore" which I really enjoyed. Afterwards it was dinner at CPK in Westwood Village which was incredibly yummy, as was the conversation.
It turns out that Ronnie knows Taylor Negron, too. Which is becoming somewhat of a joke. I saw Tay on Thursday night and made mention that he had also met my son at the Trader Joes in Silverlake. "He's funny!" Taylor said about my son and I wholeheartedly agreed. Tonight when I told Ronnie about Wendy Hammers' Jersey Girl productions and Taylor's part in the show, she said, "Taylor Negron is my friend!" With that, she called him up on her cell phone and you know what he said? He said, "I was looking for your son today at Trader Joes!"
Small world? I think YES!
Busy week ahead, but Mad Men premiere first.
7/25/10 - Happy birthday, Phil! It seems I was a day early yesterday. Care to comment?
The Biggest Surprise EVER!
I was so excited this morning because my children were all here and my mom and brother and sister in law and their 2 boys were coming for a July birthday celebration! As I was driving over to pick up some bagels for our birthday bash, I thought it's so great that all of us are getting together but what a shame that my brother who lives in Florida could not be with us. A fleeting thought, but a thought just the same.
The table was full of food, and my mom yelled, "They're here!" and I was so glad because we just love getting together, and we all hugged and just as we started to dig into the food, the doorbell rang. All of us were like, "Who can that be?" and then I heard a lot of commotion and screaming. When I went out to the living room to see what was up, I started screaming, too. I was like "Oh my god, oh my god," when I saw that my brother who lives in Florida was standing in my living room with is son, (my nephew). I was like "oh my god, oh my god!"
I actually started to cry I was so happy.
We spent a wonderful and full day together. Unfortunately my other sister in law couldn't make this surprise last minute trip, but we sent her lots of texts and pix. In fact, here is one of all us taken today.
From left to right - Cheyenne, Robbie, Shirley, Josh, Harriette, Jesse, Daniel, Zachary, Ema, Diane, and Richard.
Tonight mom, Robbie, and Josh and I went to see Inception. I'm still dreaming about it.
I LOVE thrift stores. I have always loved thrift stores. I remember discovering the thrift store near my house in NJ where I got Villager blouses and Levi cords for 25 cents each. Oh, I wish I still had those!
Between clients today I went with my friend Sheri Varela to check out the new Goodwill that opened on Pico Canyon. It's HUGE and new and there was so much to look at!!! I was instantly in shopping heaven and came home with a giant bag of goodies. Now everything is washed and put away and my house is ready for my family!
July is birthday month with both my kids born within 4 days of each other (and 3 years), and my brother and his son born within 4 days of each other (and 31 years), so we are all gathering for a birthday brunch at my house tomorrow. I am so excited. My son and his gal pal are going to spend the night, so for the first time in a long time, I will have all my children under one roof. I guess this is practice for when they move to Oregon. Fortunately my daughter has no plans to follow them. Yet.

Healings, Spray Tans, and Comedy
That was my day! A couple of amazing healing clients, and then rushing off to give my daughter her birthday gift of getting her teeth whitened by WhiteNow Whitening. Jen Gerard was having her WhiteNow Whitening Open House, so my daughter and I sped over there between appointments. While there. I noticed a tent like contraption and when my friend Trish Grinnell walked out of it with a great tan, I was intrigued. I had 10 minutes to spare while waiting for my daughter's teeth to whiten, so I stripped of my clothes and stepped into the magic tent and voila! I was super tanned!! My motivation was the white halter top I was wearing tonight to Wendy Hammers' production in Santa Monica of Tasty Words called "I'm Too Sexy for my Shirt," so I thought I should wear a sexy shirt, at least that was what Lisa Madison was doing and since we were going together, I wanted to dress up, too.
So, now I am very tan. I swear I look like I spent the last two weeks in Aruba or some other exotic place. Maybe Tahiti like Ali of the Bachelorette but without the drama.
Tonight was comedic Reader's Theater and Taylor Negron who never disappoints certainly didn't once again. His writing is so brilliant and his delivery so spot on, everyone should see him live at least once in their life. He's THAT good.
More healings tomorrow so off to bed for me and my very tan self! Thank you, Laura Tiffany of Posh Tanning. For $35 she will come to your house!!! Call 661-803-0557 today!
Want to clear negative energy from your home? There's some great information on how to do just that on today's Harriette Knight's Psychic & Healing Hour. We also talk about Saturn in Libra which began today for the next 2 1/2 years!! This is an exciting time for a lot of change. Tune in by clicking on the Blog Talk Radio player above and enjoy, enjoy!!
The days are really jam packed with a lot of things going on. Mainly healing sessions. I am so grateful! Today I had some amazing healing sessions and topped it off with a yoga class. All of this in the midst of birthday day for my daughter, now 23 years old. We went to lunch at CPK - OMG it was so yummy. I love their food. Though she doesn't look happy, she really was. Perhaps she was contemplating her wishes.
7/20/10 - Happy Birthday my baby girl, Cheyenne. I love you. Care to comment?
Quick Blog
Woke up, booked healing appts for the week, Women Moving Forward Mastermind, healing sessions, visited with Mom, watched the Bachelorette, welcomed my daughter's birthday in at midnight, heart shaped chocolate chip cookies.....too bad I don't eat desserts. The house smells yummy and I am loving my children.
I ended up doing 12 psychic readings last night which were INCREDIBLE! And beginning early this morning had two amazing healing sessions. I absolutely LOVE being in the zone. There is so much transition going on out there, I am thrilled that I can do my part and be of service in the best way I know how. I have GRATITUDE!
After the healing sessions, I went over to a pool party/singles meet up at a friend's house and had the best time! Lots of Mexican food and fiesta fun! It was so nice to see new and old friends.
But, here is the best part. When I got home there was an email from my first boyfriend (love of my life) who sent the following photo. It was taken of us in Central Park in NYC in 1972 (I was 17). A great day! We had our photo taken and each of us had a button made of it. Mine is socked away somewhere safe, but this one is now making the rounds. Thank you, Lee!
I'm on my way out the door to do psychic readings/healings at a party. This is something that I offer for special events only - 10 minutes for $25. Amazing things can happen in 10 minutes! (Tuck that away for your next party or event, please).
Today I decided to actually read the enclosed materials that came in my Waste Management bill and found out that 90 million trees are leveled each year to provide paper

The heat is on everyone's mind today. Hot Hot Hot!! With temps in the hundreds and teens. My plumeria is scorching before my very eyes. I actually went outside and did healing on it.
Impromptu lunch with my friend Sheri at Wahoos (great fish tacos!) and an even more impromptu lunch when my other friend Lisa strolled in. I didn't realize today was going to be so social, but it was, and very wonderful. A whole slew of us gathered at Candice Hirst's Silplada Retirement Party and had such a blast. I LOVE MY FRIENDS! There is such a great vibe between us. I never thought I would find a group of friends where there is such a level of comfort. It reminds me of my friends from my childhood, and quite honestly I never thought I would find that in my adult life. I wished for it, I really did, but did not think it would appear. We all have such a good time! And tonight was no different. What I love the most is how supportive we are of each other's ventures. Supportive and kind and funny and truly caring. I am feeling very very blessed right now. And very very lucky. It's an amazing thing.
7/16/10 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 26 years old today! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!! Care to comment?
Dogs in Skirts
Today was a special day with a fabulous business luncheon with my fellow Women Entrepreneurs of Santa Clarita Valley. The speaker, Alexia Vernon of Catalyst for Action, was excellent and very helpful for opening the way for me to come up with one of those little introductory commercials for business functions. This is what I came up with today that explains more of what I do...
"I provide a safe environment for healing to take place on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels to release old patterns, move forward, and give peace of mind."
Cool, huh?
The WE luncheons are always the best with an amazing group of women who continue to inspire me. I am so lucky!!
After the luncheon, it was time to head down into LA to meet my friend Adrienne so we could go to the Pacific Design Center where Patterns for PAWS was being held. This was a fundraiser for the Amanda Foundation in support of dogs and cats who need homes. It was quite an event with lots and lots of people spilling into all areas of the PDC lobby which is HUGE! There was a silent auction, a live auction, raffle, and of course dogs. Dogs for adoption stealing my heart over and over, plus the doggie Project Runway Fashion Show hosted by Nigel Lithgoe who had just come over from So You Think You Can Dance (which is why we started so late tonight).
My friend Adrienne designed a Dr. Zhivago inspired coat for the cutest little dog named Treasure. I really believe Adrienne should continue to design high end dog clothes. In fact, I want her to design the same coat for me! It was gorgeous. Cesar Milan, the Dog Whisperer, was there to receive an award, and the dogs were escorted down the runway by some celebs such as Bill Mahr and Jenna Ushkowitz from Glee, who also performed.
Here are some pictures of Adrienne and Treasure on the Red Carpet.
Here's Treasure in her Dr. Zhivago coat.

A fun time and a great fundraiser! Please support The Amanda Foundation.
It was about a million degrees outside today. Yikes! I think it hit something like 113, but when I looked out the thermometer only read 105. At that point, what's the difference, right? But none of that mattered because today's radio show was also Hot, Hot, Hot! With a topic like Chakras (my passion) you can never go wrong!
To hear today's broadcast, simply click on the player above or click HERE to be connected to Blog Talk Radio. There is so much information, you won't believe your ears! All of this is in anticipation of the launch of the upcoming Chakra Power! Daily Om Class. I urge everyone to sign up for free at www.DailyOm.com and begin to receive their wonderful daily messages. They are truly inspiring, and you will be among the first to take advantage of the Chakra online course when it is announced.
Busy day tomorrow~ A of WE (Association of Women Entrepreneurs) Luncheon and then Patterns for PAWS, a fundraiser for the Amanda Foundation which will be held down at the Pacific Design Center in LA. Celebs, fashion, and dogs! What could be better? Oh, maybe the appetizers! Should be totally fun.
There is something quite magical about the healing work that I do. It seems to be found by those who need it most without the help of any advertising. The chain of events today proves just that.
When I woke up this morning, I saw that I had a Notification of Payment from a product on my website. Since there was no order confirmation emailed to me, I was a bit confused. Fortunately the customer called me on the phone and left a message to call her back. She was calling from Florida and purchased my book after seeing that Daily Om was advertising my online Chakra course.
Now, here's the thing...the online course was supposed to launch today, but was pushed back due to the other courses (not mine) that were not quite ready to be launched. The online courses are released in a group of 3, so all the authors have to be ready. Mine has been ready and waiting in the queue.
When the customer from Florida was on the phone with me, we both went onto the computer to check and see if the Chakra course was posted and it was not. I was not surprised, but my customer said, "It was there this morning!"
Because the Order Confirmation for the purchase did not go to my email, I did a little detective work and found the order nestled in my online store in a place marked...Orders. I've never checked this before because all orders are emailed to me directly.
Upon further investigation, I found another order had been placed for a necklace a few days ago. I also had not received the order confirmation for this one as well as a notification of payment so I researched and found the customer's information and gave a call. She was in British Columbia in Canada.
This is where it gets even stranger and funnier.
I introduced myself on the phone and told the customer that I had found an order and wanted to make sure that it had been cancelled since I had never received it (I'm big on customer service), or if they truly wanted the product, I could take care of it. The customer was so nice and said that she had decided to cancel the order but was so glad I called because she was ust reading the first lesson of the online course from Daily Om!
My jaw nearly dropped.
In less than 15 minutes I had just spoken to two customers, one from Florida and one from Canada who had both seen the Online Chakra Course from Daily Om that I knew was not released yet. And one of them was already taking the class!!
But it gets better.
The woman in Canada says, "In fact, I just looked at the picture of the cover of your book, and I instantly felt a healing had taken place."
I love that. And, it also did not surprise me. I have heard that from other people, too. The book carries a lot of energy and people experience a multitude of things. What I couldn't figure out was how she could be taking the class if it weren't available yet?
After our lovely conversation, I contacted Daily Om and found out that I was not crazy, and that the Chakra Power! Online course was being test marketed. Just like a movie! I was so excited. The chances of connecting with 2 people who had been in the test markets was pretty rare, though, even I had to admit.
Not 30 minutes later, I got a call from my British Columbia friend who wanted to book a healing session, which we scheduled for the afternoon. It was incredible, life changing, and her words " the messages were so utterly accurate, I am astonished" which left both of us feeling so thrilled that our paths had crossed in such a synchronistic way.
I love life.
Don't miss the special radio show tomorrow about CHAKRAS! Tune in at 3PM PT on Wednesday by calling 646-929-2242 or clicking on the link HERE. Free psychic questions answered, too!
In 1979 I lived in Toronto, and my roommate Cherie Steinberg (www.cheriefoto.com) and I would go down the street to the comedy club Yuk Yuks. One time we saw Bob Saget there (before Full House) and he was so funny we went back and saw him for a second night. Trust me, his act was not squeaky clean.
Sometimes I forget how much fun comedy clubs are, and I often miss the old days of Skip Stephenson and Gallagher performing at The Comedy Store. Tonight, my friend Aimee and I went to the Laugh Factory on Sunset to see a friend of ours make her comedy debut. Shelley Carr has decided to go to Stand Up Comedian school, and when you get good enough, you get to go onstage at The Laugh Factory. It's a big deal. Shelley did a great set tonight and I look forward to watching her comedy career blossom. What an eclipse like thing, and a reminder that it is NEVER too late to do what you've always wanted to do. Hats off to Shelley and the 11 other comedians who performed. Of the bunch, only 2 were women. I don't think it occurred to me before tonight that Stand Up was such a guy's business.
After the show, Aimee and I went next door to Greenblatts and scarfed down matzoh ball soup and stuffed cabbage, and roast chicken and yams and rye bread and a whole slew of comfort food. OMG, we were sooooooooooo stuffed. It was so yummy. And I told Aimee that earlier in the day I thought of a comedy routine if I were to get up on stage and perform. So I did it for her. And....I killed it!! (slang for great job). It was hilarious. Aimee was laughing so hard food might've come out of her mouth had she not eaten everything on her plate.
Okay, confession. In 4th grade I told my parents I wanted to be a comedienne when I grew up. "Like Phyllis Diller?" my dad asked. Even then I didn't realize it was a guy's business. Phyllis Diller was the only prominent woman doing stand up at the time. Though I didn't see myself quite like Phyllis Diller, I always knew I loved making people laugh.
Tonight I give a lot of credit to Shelley Carr. That is one brave thing to go onstage and be funny. Kudos to you, my friend! I will never look at Spanks the same way again.

is a major Solar Eclipse! Eclipses are always important turning points/stepping
stones into a whole new level of reality, but this one brings unprecedented
changes. It is truly about clear endings and exciting new beginnings.
We
could have felt pretty spacey in the past few days, forgetting major
appointments, having our head in a completely different place than what was
required of us to keep our lives on track, we could have experienced body pains
and headaches and alternatively increased and lowered energy levels... We were
just already in tune with the huge shift of consciousness that is taking the
planet by storm.
Our generosity towards others increases. We could be
attracted to a whole new group of friends. We are more idealistic and committed
to global humanitarian causes. Great fortune is likely to occur. Any endeavor
related to corporate money, educational or religious institutions is beneficial.
The sudden healing of an illness or an emotional situation that has been
creating much grief, could unexpectedly occur as we let go of deep seated fears
and old behavioral patterns that no longer serve us. An unplanned trip could
help us realize long term dreams and completely transform our lives by opening
us to a whole new understanding of what is truly important.
It may be
interested to remember what happened in our lives around July 11, 1991 and
January 9, 2001 when there were eclipses very close to this eclipse at 19º24’
Cancer. What we are now likely to experience is expanding on what happened
then.
Love features prominently in this chart. We seek a relationship in
which there is a strong soul connection. We could also find ourselves in
emotional situations that bring to the surface very strong feelings enabling us
to see our wounds and giving us the chance to heal them. We need passion and
inspiration and as we learn to balance romance and personal power, we experience
the inner marriage of the feminine and the masculine within us, a joining of the
Sun and the Earth inside our own being which in turn makes us radiate more light
and joy.
A whole new consciousness is replacing the way we used to
think, making it look like we have reincarnated within this lifetime in the same
body. Events beyond our control, completely release us from the past allowing
us to make completely new choices. We can finally free ourselves from old
responsibilities and obligations which, all of a sudden, make no sense
whatsoever. Even seemingly difficult circumstances, in the long run, make us
stronger, more independent and creative in ways we couldn’t have imagined had we
not been pushed into the unknown.
And if, in the past few weeks, we have
been feeling a heaviness, an unrest, a sense of something vague and terrible
that was about to wipe out the very foundation of our lives, let us take heart.
Things get worst before they improve, the darkest hour is always before dawn.
Everything that in our lives was guided by selfish motives or incomplete
spiritual understanding, is now coming to the surface to be shifted and changed.
This is our time of complete reinvention of everything we are so that we
express truly our divinity in our daily lives with integrity, love and
passion.
To welcome this powerful eclipse, it is recommended to create a
fire ceremony at 12:35’ PM PDT California time, a few minutes before the actual
eclipse (if you are not free at this exact time, don’t worry, you have 24 hrs to
do your ceremony until noon Monday).
If you don’t have a garden or
balcony, you can always take a pan, put a few scoops of epson salts, cover them
with rubbing alcohol and light a match. It will create a clean fire that won’t
last more than 5’-10’ but that’s enough if you are clear on what you want to
release and what you want to bring into your life. Make a list for each, between
now and Sunday noon and find two little sticks in nature (or tooth picks).
When in front of your fire, with your first stick over your third eye,
think of everything you want to release out of your life. When the emotion is
really there, blow it three times into the stick before throwing it into the
flames. Stay peaceful for a few moments and then (even if the previous stick
hasn’t fully burned yet), focus, with your 2nd stick against your third eye, on
the list of what you want to bring into your life. Once the emotion of your own
created future is clear, blow it three times into the stick and throw it into
the fire to burn. Stay with your fire as long as you can, in peaceful
meditation, focusing on light and love. Fires are always powerful amplifiers,
and even more so if it’s an eclipse day. The resonance can be up to a million
fold... You will feel the power of this fire and how your intentions will carry
forward into manifesting the life you want.
Enjoy this particularly
magical day!

7/10/10 - Happy Birthday, El! (My bestfriend from 7th, 8th, and 9th grade) Care to comment?

Birthdates Most Affected by the Upcoming July 11th Eclipse
On Sunday, July 11th, there is going to be a New Moon Solar Eclipse at 19 degrees Cancer. This comes on the heels of the June 26th eclipse which was at 5 degrees Cancer/Capricorn. In lay person's terms, the two eclipses are connected and affecting each and every one of us. Some people, however, will be affected more than others. This upcoming eclipse is a kinder, gentler eclipse that opens the way to use your talents and abilities in a new way. Much of this will come to light over the next three months and through relationships.
Remember that New Moons are about new beginnings, and with a solar eclipse, it's like the fire under a rocket helping you to soar to new heights!
Here are the birthdates most affected by the upcoming eclipse, including those born within 5 days either way.
Jan 9, Feb 8, Feb 22, Mar 9, April 9, May 9, May 25, June 10, July 11, Aug 12, Aug 27, Sept 12, Oct 12, Nov 11, Nov 26, Dec 11.
Please note that even if your sun sign (birthday) does not fall on any of these dates, there could be other planets at 19 degrees cancer in your chart. And even if nothing falls in any aspected degrees of the eclipse, the collective gets a reboot no matter what! Isn't that wonderful? We are all connected and all these shifts are pushing ALL of us towards new beginnings and change.
Don't forget to make your wishes within 48 hours after the eclipse on July 11th. You can make 100 wishes! It's alway nice to list at least 3 things you want to bring into your life and write them down. Then using the 4 elements (earth, air, water, and fire), you can do a lovely ritual. Write down (earth) the wishes, Read (air ) them aloud, Burn (fire) them, and Wash (water) them away. Then do the same thing with at least 3 things you would like to let go of or that no longer serves you. This is the New Moon to do it!
"Harriette, I love reading these blogs and am excited about the New Moon rising
on the 11th and looking forward to good schtuff in the next 3 months! You
certainly conveyed your message and I'm most definitely gettin' what you're
puttin' down! Earth, Wind, Fire & Water and 100 wishes - AWESOMENESS!" PJ Suttle
Are You a Walk-In?
Last week, Harriette Knight's Psychic & Healing Hour was all about Walk-Ins and Soul Exchange. It was so fascinating, we just had to have some follow up information on today's broadcast. To hear today's show or last week's show, please utilize the Blog Talk Radio player above. The last 5 shows are right there!
As promised, here is the list of 10 symptoms that Walk-Ins may experience. If you or someone you know has experienced 7 or more of these symptoms, you (or they) may indeed be a Walk-In or experienced a Soul Exchange. We talk a lot about it on the June 30th broadcast, so please feel free to tune in. In fact, you can click HEREto listen.
This list was inspired by www.healpastlives.com which has a lot of great information about Walk-ins and Soul Exchange.
1. Extended period of being unconscious while ill. 2. Some Memory Loss or episodes of lost time. 3. Dramatic change in belief systems and/or religion. 4. Dramatic changes in interests. 5. Sudden new abilities and talents. 6. New approaches to solving unsolvable problems. 7. Overwhelming evidence that you are 'not yourself.' 8. Many others saying that "You are different." 9. Sudden leaving of long term marriages, jobs, or locations. 10. Rapid series of challenging life problems.
The comment I most hear from people who have experienced a Soul Exchange is that they think they are crazy or have suffered a nervous breakdown. One client said to me that she felt as if her brain had been removed and a new one put in its place. She also picked up and moved to a new state, quit her job, and even her son commented that she LOOKED different.
Walk-ins who come to me for healing usually suspect that something has happened and are comforted when they find out that a Soul Exchange has taken place. They often say, "I had a feeling that something like that had happened, but I'm generally not a believer of that type of thing." Hence their feeling of being crazy.
For more information, I urge you to listen to last week's broadcast. Here is the LINK again.
Tomorrow I will list the birth dates of those who will most be affected by the upcoming July 11th eclipse.
I sandwiched yoga between 2 healing sessions today which makes it a perfectly blissful day. I added a couple of sides of errands and gardening and had sushi for dessert (dinner). The whole day was perfectly lovely, and I feel so grateful (and full).
Tomorrow is Radio Show day and since there has been such a hub bub surrounding last week's show about Walk-Ins, we will continue that discussion as well as include July 11th Eclipse info. Tune in at 3PM PT and call in a psychic question for free at 646-929-2242 or by clicking the link HERE.
7/6/10 - Happy Birthday, Stephen (my boyfriend from when I was 15) Care to comment?
We Were Going to Sit in Front of Islands on the Fourth of July
As it got closer to going to see the fireworks, my friend Aimee and I were on the fence about going. I was enjoying my outdoor sanctuary and the gorgeous breeze that reminds me that I live by the beach (in my head, since the beach is at least 45 minutes away). Aimee and I didn't really care either way if we went and left it up to her husband and daughter to decide for us.
We discussed a game plan for dinner which included going to Islands for burgers and putting our blanket and chairs right outside so we could eat and have our territory marked in time to see the fireworks show at the mall at Valencia Town Center. When Aimee's hubby and daughter voted YES on going, our plan changed to "Meet us at Alamo at Granary Square at 7PM." Good for me! In fact, this is exactly what we did last year. We met at Granary Square, ate outside in the early evening breeze, parked our cars and walked up to Valencia Blvd. It worked so well, we decided to do it again.
As we got to the corner of McBean and Valencia right outside Corner Bakery, I was shocked that there was a perfect patch of available grass for us to sit down. No trees to block the show, and easy access back down McBean to get our cars afterwards. In the midst of the throngs of people, I could not believe our good fortune. Last year, we were forced to walk down the street towards Islands to find an available spot, but this year was much more efficient and we even commented that we should stake out this exact spot in coming years.
The fireworks were fabulous and because I was so engrossed in the display, I didn't really process that there were numerous police cars and fire trucks with their sirens blaring passing me by. I think at one point I thought, Wow, that is a lot of police cars and fire engines, but I thought maybe some people had some sparklers or a firework went astray. I was not prepared for what really had happened.
After the 3-D spectacular grand finale and a huge applause and cheer from the crowd, we got up from our spot and saw that just down the block the police cars had gathered; their lights flashing. "It's just down there," Aimee said, "Let's go see what's going on."
As we meandered against the crowd, bits and pieces of what happened leaked through. We heard things like "A car went flying." I asked the teen that said that if he actually saw the car flying, and he said, "Yes, the car was flying, and it ran into people."
Oh man this is serious, I thought, and as we got closer more of the story took shape. A young girl driving a white car got distracted by the fireworks (why wasn't Valencia Blvd. closed? is my question), and ran the red light at Islands (exactly where we would've been sitting if we hadn't changed our eating plans) hit 2 other cars, went airborne and hit a pole which probably stopped the car from even more disaster.
More of the story leaked through. "Someone died," they said and kids were hurt. At one point I heard that two people had died and a baby was missing (not true). As it turns out one woman, a mom, was immediately killed and her 3 children injured. Three other children were injured as well, with broken bones and lacerations (according to a news report). One child was critically injured and airlifted to Children's Hospital. The woman, the mom, was from Newhall, and all I could think of was, you go to the fireworks and you never know what will happen. In fact, no one ever knows what the next second of their life will bring.
I cannot stop thinking about this chain of events. I keep thinking of how detailed the chain of events actually is, with exact precision for everyone involved to unfold the story that needed to be told. I'm not sure the reason why this happened, but I do know it was part of the plan and contract for all involved. I am a firm believer that everything is in Divine Order, though the reasons are often not revealed till much later.
I'm pretty certain that Valencia Blvd. will be closed off next year, but I cannot help but think of all the children and families that have been affected by what they saw. Even I am completely affected by the tragedy.
As we walked back to our cars down McBean Parkway, there was a family stopped at the traffic light. Aimee said to one of the children, "Did you like the fireworks?" I know it was her attempt to put things into perspective, but the little girl didn't bite. She said, "A car ran into people and kids were hurt."
That broke my heart.
My thoughts and prayers are with all the people involved. The families, the witnesses, the 21 year old girl driving the white car. Oh, my heart goes out to all of them.
"I believe in divine intervention and I just said to my friend while having
dinner at the Alamo,that spirit has been trying to get my attention b/c
something i have hanging on my refrigerator keeps being turned upside down( I
live alone)and it was starting to made me a little uneasy. My friend asked me 3
times to walk up with her to Islands to see the fireworks. And I was considering
it but when we walked in my house, and it was upside down again - I got a
creeped out and was so upset -I decided to just watch them from my balcony. When
I heard the news this morning, I couldn't help but wonder if it was all
connected....." Colleen Craig
"Last year, I ate and sat in front of Islands too. The view and the fireworks
were fabulous. This year, Caitlin and I were also planning to go to Islands to
eat (like you) and then sit in the same place in front of Islands. It was late
in the afternoon and Caitlin was bugging me to change our plans to meet friends
at The RoseBowl. I was hesitant because I didn't want to spend the time and
money when we had such awesome fireworks so close to home. At 5pm we decided to
drive and join our friends at The RoseBowl. When I got home and saw FB statuses
on the horrific accident at the mall, I realized why our plan was re-directed
and while I'm so sad for the families involved, I'm also so greatful we weren't
there and feel that our lives were worth more than the $90. I spent when it
could have been a different story." Candace Moody
"My clients were just a few feet away from the crash, on the other side of the
light pole. They said that it was the light pole that saved them. Very
scary!" Linda Slocum
Happy 4th!
Yoga, healing clients, and 7 new car charms! Check them out HERE!
Today I did 3 healing sessions. I could not be happier or more buzzed. I love recording the messages onto a CD. It's so great, and the client doesn't even have to wait! The whole thing takes no time at all. Healing, messages, recording, final message.... it's truly a wonderful and complete experience. 7/3/10 Care to comment?
Friday Night at The Hollywood Bowl
Wow! What a night! First of all, I love going to the Hollywood Bowl. I love parking my car down at Ventura and Lankershim and taking the shuttle over. It's so convenient and so civilized!!! I was meeting my brother, sister in law, and nephew for a Fourth of July Spectacular! And it was! Spectacular. I don't think I have seen fireworks like that since growing up in New Jersey. Fantastic!
The program was very patriotic with LA Phil playing all the favorites. One of the best parts of the night was when they played the theme songs for all the different armed forces, and you got to stand up if you or anyone in your family have served. My brother and I cheered for Army and stood up proudly. I felt my dad was with us the whole time tonight. (He loved the Bowl, and would've loved this program, but I have a feeling he was in the box with us the whole time anyway.). My sister in law stood up and cheered for Navy in honor of her dad. It was so powerful. The biggest group was the Air Force who I think got a group rate or something to the Bowl tonight.
The second half had Vince Gill as the special guest. I'm not a country fan, but he was great! Very very winning, and has a beautiful voice. I found myself drifting off into meditation land as I mentally prepared for a full day of healing clients tomorrow. I came back to reality when the fireworks began and the sounds of John Phillip Sousza permeated the hills. It was SPECTACULAR!!!
It's the strangest thing! All week, I've been feeling like it was Friday. I even felt it was Friday on Monday. I was certain it was Friday on Wednesday even though that is radio show day. The minute the show was over, I thought it was Friday again. It's Thursday today, but feels like Friday so I'm just going to go with it.
I did yoga this morning. My intent is to get back into my regular yoga routine. I've been diligently attending the fabulous yoga class at Yoga Yoga with Jennifer Jhaveri as the yogini in charge, and I love it. I am utilizing the eclipse energy to move me forward in my yoga practice even if it is for a short time in the morning a few days a week. Once a week hasn't been cutting it; I need more!
After yoga I raced over to Lunch and Learn at the Betty Ferguson Foundation to see my peeps and hear Carrie Kish's talk. It's always a great group of women, and the A of WE women are very special indeed. I love observing how all of us are moving forward in our businesses and lives and continually becoming the best that we can be. It's inspiring! Oh, and lunch was good, too!
The radio show yesterday about Walk-Ins has created quite a stir and people there were buzzing about it. I love that!! Awareness is everything!
To hear yesterday's broadcast, please click HERE or on the BTR player above.
After that, I went with my besties Sheri and Julie to see how Sheri's backyard has been transformed with the help of Julie Molinare's The Grass is Always Greener Landscape Design. Wow! It was fabulous. I literally could've stayed there all day. But the workaholic in me said, "No way," and hightailed out of there to get home. I booked a couple of healing clients and am waiting for a jewelry repair customer. Maybe I'll be inspired to make something new. It's soooooooo summery outside, I just want to go for a dip in my imaginary pool.
The computer has been glitching, but it isn't me. Apparently updating Firefox and Adobe got me into the no chat zone of Blog Talk Radio. Google Chrome works, but not with my website here. So I'm caught with a case of computeritis with two browsers working simulitaneously. I'm sorta digging it, though. Like I have access to the world!
7/1/10- Happy Birthday, Bev, my friend of 36 years!!! Care to comment?
I woke up with that special feeling I get when I know it is going to be a great day, and when they called me from Daily Om to let me know that my online course on Chakras will be launched two weeks from today I got so excited. It's exactly what I wanted! I wanted the course to launch at the new moon eclipse which is on July 11th so this is perfect!!
The phone call was just the beginning as the day progressed into wonderfulness. Between selling jewelry in person and online, going to yoga, doing healing sessions, booking appts., and getting my long overdue marketing done (grocery shopping, not advertising), it was the fullest of day!
Tomorrow is radio day and we will be talking about Walk-ins. What's a walk-in? You'll have to tune into the show to find out more! Tease, tease! Join us at 3PM PT by caling 646-929-2242 (program your number into your phone!) or clicK HERE.
Check out my latest article for Scene In SCV. It's loaded with TIPS ABOUT VISITING A PSYCHIC! Verrrrrrrry interrrrrresting! Just click HERE!
Today I was fixated on creating pieces of jewelry with Peace Signs. I made necklaces, earrings, and a couple of commission yoga necklaces (with peace signs, too). Here are some pix:
I promised my daughter I would get up early so we could go to the Saugus Swap Meet together, and I'm good with promises. We had the BEST time!!! And got the BEST goodies!! Shoes for 50¢, a leather coat for $2.00, vintage beads for a song, an $84 kimono for $2 (with the price tag still on!), and the one thing my daughter wanted to get more than anything, a ukelele! And she found one!! In fact, it was her search for ukelele that sent us to the Swap Meet in the first place. So fun!!
After our shopping excursion (did I mention we got 3 vintage beaded purses for $5.00? $5.00 for all 3!!), I went over to Yoga Yoga for a wonderful yoga class which was also a fundraiser for Diana Shaw who is running for 38th District Assembly. It was fabulous. Both the yoga and Diana. She is so knowledgeable about what our Valley needs and intends to make a difference in Sacramento. If anyone wants to get involved in this exciting campaign or make a donation, please contact Diana's team through Facebook or http://www.ElectDianaShaw.com.
After yoga, I attended a house party supporting Diana Shaw, which was equally enlightening. Yes, you guessed it, I support Diana Shaw! She's extremely qualified for the job, and I am so proud to have been her friend for the past 22 years.
I'm looking forward to this week. I think it is going to be a doozy! Plus...if you haven't checked out YouTube lately, I have a slew of new videos posted including this one. Don't forget to breathe!
"OK Harriette (with 2 r's and 2 t's)...That was CRAZY!! Loved it and thanks for
the tip. And yes, YOU are sooooooo beautiful!" Dr. Carolyn Griffin
"Great tip Harriette! I love reading your blogs and listening to your program. " Ethel See
"Wow...great, thank you..." Nancy Williams
"That's really quite amazing! Thank you for showing me that!" Carol Murray Feingold
My Eclipse Experience
I woke up with a start and I didn't know why. When I looked at the clock it said 4:29AM. I remembered the eclipse and I rushed outside. First I ran out the back but there was no moon in sight. I quietly went out the front door and there in front of me was the moon partially shining. It was a powerful moment. The stillness on the street was eery and the stars were oh so bright. I felt as if I was part of something important, and with that I went back to bed.
I had to get up early because I was attending a birthday brunch down on Melrose near the Bodhi Tree. It was wonderful! Great people and I swear it felt like Paris. Afterwards I took the canyon over the hill and decided to do what I had intended to do this weekend which was upload the 8 week online course for Daily Om. And, so I did. It took me 7 hours, but now it is done. I hope it is done. I know if I continue to look at it, my eyes will just get more blurry. I feel as if I just finished a whole new book. It's very exciting.
I cannot wait for this course to be launched. It is filled with information, videos, audio, photos. The information is different than the information in my book so even if you read my book, you would get a lot of new stuff. I'm so excited.
And feeling exhausted.
Tomorrow is super busy AGAIN! My daughter wants to go the swap meet in the early morning, and then there is the Yoga Fundraiser for Diana Shaw who is running for 38th Assembly. She just happens to be my BFF. Then another Diana Shaw function in Stevenson Ranch. I have a feeling there will be more that will reveal itself. As the eclipse energy takes hold and continues to change all our lives forever.
Did you see that full moon tonight? WHOA! It is huge and powerful, and at 4:39 AM it will be partially eclipsed by the sun. What does that mean for you? Michelle Karen is a brilliant astrologer and she offers some wonderful information on the eclipse. Here is what she wrote:
Dearest Friends
Tomorrow morning at 4:30
AM PDT, at 4º46’ Capricorn is an intense lunar eclipse. Eclipses always mark
times of irrevocable change, shifting our lives to a whole new dimension.
This one is particularly unique as it could, through some discomfort,
reveal difficult aspects of our lives that need transformation.
Blocks
to intimacy and old conditioned emotional reactions could surface, giving us a
chance to shift the past and recreate our love relationships in a much more
harmonious way.
We could be drawn to either moving or completely
remodeling our home. Daily habits could be understood more clearly and changed
as needed.
We become very concerned about what feels right to us. We need
to create for ourselves a level of security and inner peace to nurture ourselves
and those we cherish. As we become aware of deeper thoughts and reactions, we
give ourselves the chance to free ourselves from the past.
We could make
decisions that change our lives a 180º. External events could suddenly and
unexpectedly project us on a whole new path. New doors that we never suspected
the existence of, could open. New opportunities present themselves to us. We are
resolutely leaving what no longer serves us and embracing a much more expanded
understanding of our own reality.
Our goals become much more clearly
defined. We are able to focus with greater efficiency on what truly matters to
us. New ideas could inspire us enabling us to create something new out of
seemingly nothing.
We are very concerned about walking our talk. We need
to integrate in our ordinary lives the spiritual principles we believe in. As we
truly embody the divinity within, great healing for ourselves and the planet can
occur.
It is a great idea, to by June 27 at 4:30 AM, create a fire
ceremony, even with only a candle if you cannot to a big fire. Write on a piece
of paper what you want to release from your life. Once burnt, burn another piece
of paper with what we want to bring into your reality and except a miracle as
this eclipse will definitely amplify and accelerate whatever needs to shift to a
whole new level in your life.
In Loving Light. Michelle

This is such a powerful time! Take advantage of this amazing energy to create what you want in your life. By the way, today I finished all the prep work for the online course for Daily Om. All I need to do now is upload it to the site and once it is reviewed I will get a launch date. I'm so excited. I celebrated tonight by going over to the Hyatt for the Friday night outdoor concert, visited with friends, and went to dinner with my friend Aimee. Her birthday, like mine, is in early Capricorn. I thought safety in numbers for this eclipse is best. LOL.
As many of you know, I've been working on the 8 week Online Course for Daily Om and today I finished all the writing. It's like writing another book, which made me realize how much I miss writing a book! I definitely want to continue and I have a great book in mind that will expand the Chakra Power series.
So, the writing is completed, but the audios and videos are not so I'm busy as a bee doing all the recording. It's a great class and I know that those who take it will be very very happy. All that is left is some videos and uploading the class for review by Daily Om. It's EXCITING!!!
I had to take a few breaks today to do things like bring my dog to the vet and attend the DAA (Democratic Alliance for Action) meeting where my friend Diana Shaw was speaking. She is running for 38th Assembly and she is so smart and so honest and so on board, and I was so proud to be her friend and to know her. In Sept. I will host a party so everyone who doesn't already know her can meet her. On Sunday at 2PM at Yoga Yoga in Newhall, there is a Stretch with Diana Yoga Fundraiser. If you like yoga, come on out! Space is limited so get there early. Check out her website http://www.ElectDianaShaw.com.
I think I am ready for a So You Think You Can Dance break. It's been a super busy day, and with this eclipse coming on Saturday conjuncting my sun, mercury, and north node, I have a feeling it is going to be a super busy life.
The topic for today's radio show was the Lunar Eclipse on Saturday, June 26th, and the show is LOADED with information. To hear the whole broadcast, simply click HERE or on the player above. You can even upload it to your Itunes and listen while walking your dog!
This eclipse is a BIGGIE and even if your birthday does not fall in the early signs of Cancer or Capricorn, you will be feeling the effects. We are part of a huge conglomeration (capricorn) and we feel (cancer) what everyone else feels. It's the end of an old cycle that began on June 26, 1991 and will now continue for a new 19 year cycle that will conclude in 2029. Wow! Everyone and everything is changing. That does not mean that on Saturday you will transform into a new person altogether (though you might), but be aware that the eclipse energy can reveal itself over time.
I promised the listeners on the radio show that I would post the birthdates that will be most affected by the eclipse. The most impacted are those born within 5 days either way of June 26 and Dec. 26. (What???????? I'm born on Dec. 24th!).
From http://www.zodiacarts.com/whatsup/LunarEclipse.shtml. "The
eclipse does not have to fall in your sign for you to feel
its effects.
If your birthday is around Jan
24, Feb
8 or 23, Mar 25, Apr 24, May 10 or 25, Jun 26, Jul 27, Aug
12 or 28,
Sep 27, Oct 28, Nov 12 or 26, or Dec 26, you will
definitely have an
emotional response. If it makes any contacts to a planet
or personal
point in your chart, your experience of the eclipse will
be heightened."

Toot Toot Tuesday
Okay, I admit it, I love selling jewelry out of my car. So today Lori (my houseguest from Canada) and I went over to Yoga Yoga early to meet up with some Team Women who requested some worry bead bracelets, or what they choose to call NON Worry Bead Bracelets. So cute! After the transaction out of the back of my car, Lori and I went to a wonderful yoga class with some more of our friends. It was zippity doo dah out of there because I had a dentist appointment and I had to first clean up my house because the housecleaners were coming. Call me quirky.
The bride came by to pick up her new long and short necklaces and accessories, and she was as blushing as a bride could be. Here are the pictures of the pieces that she plans to wear all over her honeymoon.
There is something to be said when you wake up in the morning and see that your son and his gal pal are asleep on the couch, a guest is cozy in the guest room, the dog is nestled in its cuteness, and your daughter has already left for her 6AM shift at work. There is something to be said for being in the midst of familial support and love. There is something to be said about it, I'm not sure what it is, but I know it is something.
Today was the fullest day. First the surprise of the kids still being here and spending a lovely morning. My son made dinner plans with me tonight so it was a double dose of joy. Though the reason for our dinner was to tell me that he and his gal pal (of 3 years) are planning to move to Portland. My heart felt things that did not reflect the words coming out of my mouth. I was overwhelmed with emotion. My head was saying "Good for you!" but my heart was heavy. Though by the time I was his age I had already lived in many cities including Toronto IN CANADA! I mean why stop at another state, just go to another country!
I'm excited for them, of course, and I know astrologically they are right on target with a combined ascendent conjuncting all the pluto and eclipse activity. I am happy for them, but sad for me. I'm grateful for astrology to help make sense of the madness. It is all so organized on a chart, but not in my emotional field.
The day was FULL! I love having Lori here (my guest from Canada) and we got the car washed, and then my gardener finally indulged me with adding a sprinkler to the one brown spot on the lawn; the one that is in my line of vision from the back door. I did numerous jewelry repairs and designed a stunning set of 2 necklaces, earrings, and a bracelet as a custom order for a new bride. There was a lot more that occurred and right now all I really want to do is watch the Bachelorette, but I am feeling a fullness that is undeniable. So many blessings. So many changes. So many positives. It's a moment of time of riding the crest of the surf.
OH, and this was the icing on the cake. One of the readings I did on Saturday was for someone who didn't even attend the event at all. It was for a 21 year old who lives in Israel. I did the reading by recording it and making it a CD. It was then emailed to her by her grandmother. The reading apparently was dead on, but the most amazing thing is that the next morning, the girl went to the doctor because of a cyst on her head. The doctor couldn't find it, and when the girl reached up to feel where it clearly had been the day before, it was gone. Oh, I love a good healing story!!!!
Tomorrow we have another busy day!! We are riding the crest of the surf towards the eclipse. Cowabunga.
Outdoor sanctuary bliss. Visits with my cousin and houseguest. A walk. A breeze. My son and his gal pal. BBQ Ribs for dinner. Crystals and conversation. Bliss and more bliss. As we head into eclipse week, I'm glad I was able to indulge in some "stay-cation."
6/20/10 - Happy Father's Day. I miss you and love you, Dad. Care to comment?

Getting Ready for Spiritual & Psychic Boutique
The Laker game last night was incredible! A nail biter! But in the end, The Lakers prevailed and became NBA CHAMPIONS! Wooohoooo!
Because I set up my jewelry table last night and got nearly everything ready for tomorrow Spiritual & Psychic Boutique, today was very relaxing. I picked up Lori B. from the Flyaway since she flew in from her home in Canada. What a joy she is! We spent the loveliest day together, ate at Lazy Dog Cafe (yum!) and did some marketing at Trader Joes. Everything was so set in place, I even had time to make some new yoga necklaces just in time for tomorrow. I'm just putting the finishing touches on some things and off to bed for me, too. Tomorrow is going to be an amazing day. If you are in the neighborhood, please stop by anytime between 10 and 4.
Oh, this is so cool! I responded to a post on Help a Reporter. com (HARO) for anyone who had attended the 1964-65 World's Fair. Well, I have!!! I was 9 years old in 1964 and I remember everything so vividly. In fact, I posted a little blurb on their website. You can check it out by clicking HERE, and if you went to the World's Fair, add a post of your own. I remember it like it was yesterday!!
It's halftime of Game 7 of the Finals between the Lakers and the Celtics. My dog threw up 5 times. I hope the two things have nothing to do with each other.
The WE of SCV luncheon was great, as always. I LOVE MY FRIENDS! I am so lucky to be surrounded by such a great group of supportive and talented women! Many of which plan to attend the Spiritual & Psychic Boutique at my house on Saturday. It will surely be a great day.
AFter the luncheon I went over to Embassy Suites to see my daughter at work. It's NICE over there! Wow~ A great place for coffee or lunch or even dinner. And so convenient, too. Where the 5 meets the 126 in the Valencia Industrial Center. Starbucks coffee, too, for those who are caffeine junkies.
After spending time with my daughter, I went to Walmart to do girl stuff - you know, make up like blush, mascara, eye pencils - FUN STUFF!! I love being a girl.
I guess I didn't do too much work today but I do have the tables situated to set up for Saturday. Getting a jump start on things before the guests arrive. We even have people flying in from Canada!!! Can you imagine that? It's so cool. I did make a couple of videos for the Daily Om Online Course on Chakras. I figure after playing with make-up today, I might as well shoot a couple of videos, too!
Blog minutes are easier to write than whole blogs. It's just been so busy on this end, I haven't had time to indulge myself in the blogging arena. The radio show today was great. All about gemstones and self worth. To hear the broadcast simply click on the player above. There is some great information. After the show, I continued to clean off my jewelry work table in anticipation of Saturday's Spiritual & Psychic boutique. It took 2 days to do it but now it is squeaky clean. I celebrated by making 20 worry bead bracelets which are really fantastic. I won't even mention all the phone calls I had today, radio shows I listened to (Sheri Varela interviewed by Archie Holten on Odyssey Radio on Blog Talk was FABULOUS), coloring my daughter's hair, doing laundry, walking my dog, making the sign in sheets and flyers for Saturday.........jeez, I guess I really am busy! No wonder I fell asleep while watching tv tonight!
Tomorrow is the A of WE luncheon (Association of Women Entreprenuers) which is one of my favorite events of the month.
Lesson 7 completed. One more to go for the Chakra Online Course for Daily Om. Went to yoga, breathe, breathe, breathe. Began the long process of clearing off my jewelry work station for the Spiritual & Psychic Boutique on Saturday. Answered phone calls and emails. CHEERED FOR THE LAKERS! Planned tomorrow's radio show - Gemstones and their Meanings. Should be good!

Women Moving Forward Mastermind meeting today at my house. Great lunch - so yummy. Great work - so motivating. After the meeting I sat down to do Lesson 6 for the Online Course for DailyOm.com. Only 2 more to go and record the videos and done! But of course there is no done, because anything done leads to new beginnings. I love that.
Gearing up for the Spiritual & Psychic Boutique here on Saturday. This is a wonderfully busy week!
What a full weekend! I just watched the season finale of Breaking Bad, OMG, I love that show, and I thought it's nearly midnight and it is the weekend finale! What a full weekend!
Today I got up semi-early and finished writing Lesson 5 for the Chakra Online Course for Daily Om. Three lessons to go and videos. I'm on track before my eclipse deadline of June 26th. After I worked on the lesson, I made some bracelets and new car charms (posting soon). I also have a new batch of worry beads waiting to be hatched. That is on the agenda for this coming week. We squeeze in what we can, when we can.
My dear friend Adrienne came up from W. LA to spend the day. It's like a vacation for her, coming up this way. We've been friends for 30 years, though we had a 20 year break and recently reconnected. What fun we have! Brunch at Egg Plantation, a cruise over to the Old Orchard Arts and Crafts Fair, a trip to Walmart (her first time), planting flowers in my garden, a sad Laker game, watched the Tony's, caught the last half of one of my all time favorite movies HAIR, dinner, you know, the perfect day.
Now I am going to settle into bed and read. Tomorrow is busy busy busy! It's WMF Day! Women Moving Forward, our Mastermind group, meets tomorrow. Woohoo!!! So much to cover and so much to look forward to. I can't wait!
That's how tired I am feeling. So tired, that I am blogging with my eyes closed. When the day starts before 6AM, it's easy to want to climb into bed before midnight. Those who know me, know that my day rarely starts before 9AM and I go to sleep in the 2:30 AM range. But today I had a vendor event that started at 7AM so I was up and Atom, Atom Ant and pretended to be bright eyed and bushy tailed at the Pancake Breakfast. Actually, it was a really really nice day. The weather was scrumdiddlyumptious and the people just as nice. By noon, the event was done, and I was on my way home. Upon a trip to the post office, I was reminded that Old Orchard Park was the having their Arts and Crafts Fair so I moseyed over there to see what there was to see. The weather was so nice, I just wanted to be outside some more, and I love going to any arts and crafts fair. I ran into a bunch of people I knew and yakked, yakked, yakked before I went back home with some fish tacos from the take-out place. I was going to work, I really was, but it was such a beautiful day I grabbed my book and went outside to my outdoor sanctuary and felt like I had just traveled to the best spa in the world. My daughter joined me with a bowl of cereal since it was after 4PM and she had just gotten up. She's been working 2 jobs night and day, night and day with no days off (a chip off the old block - that would be me) so she was catching up on sleep, but even she couldn't help but comment on how beautiful it was on the patio. I noticed above us a red tailed hawk putting on quite a show. I mentioned to my daughter, wow, that is really significant and special. And when that red tailed hawk was joined by a 2nd red tailed hawk, I knew that the moment was a validation of all the brilliant changes that have been happening in both our lives. The symbolism was not lost on my daughter who has felt that she had let go of a lot of old patterns. Yay!!! I swapped the patio for the couch and watched a couple of movies. District 9 put me on edge, but I couldn't stop watching, and then Pageant which followed the Miss Gay America Pageant which was a really good documentary and more my style. And before I knew it, I was asleep on the couch, until now, where I am writing my blog with my eyes closed.
Getting everything ready for tomorrow morning's SC Sunrise Rotary Club Emergency Preparedness Pancake Breakfast and Vendor Event (say that 3 times fast!) which is from 8AM - Noon (EARLY!!) at Greenbrier Mobile Estates at 21301 Soledad Canyon Road in Canyon Country outside their clubhouse at the East Entrance. Please come!!!
In addition to doing my healing client thang, I did have the chance to create this Chakra Mandala Necklace - OMG, it is my new fave. I almost, really almost, kept it for myself. Thanks, Mom, for the inspiration!
I got up extra early today since I had a healing client. It was a distant session so I could still be in my pajamas - lol - another reason why I love doing distant healing sessions! Actually the healing sessions are extremely powerful whether they are in person or not. The distant sessions are mind boggingly wonderful. I set up my table just like you are here and we schedule a time to begin. You are lying down comfortably with your eyes closed and no distractions. On my end, I am doing the work and getting psychic messages specifically for you. After the session (about 30 minutes) we talk on the phone and I share the messages that came through. For your convenience, I can also record the messages on a CD and mail it to your house. It's quite extraordinary, really. With this type of healing, we do 1, 2, or 3 sessions. That's it! But they do say that three times a charm.
I have been a healing practitioner for over 10 years and I love it more and more each day. The sessions are often life changing, and the messages have been known to be extremely accurate. I just report what I am seeing, hearing, and feeling. The messages are not for me, they are for you. Once I share them with you, I forget everything that was said.
Feel free to call me or email me for more information. Toll free is 866-823-1569 and in Southern California - 661-254-4747. Email is info@charityclarityjewelry.com.
Today was busy as usual. Like I said, I started off with a healing client which was wonderful. Then I tackled Lesson 5 - The Heart Chakra- for the Online Course I am doing for Daily Om. Tonight was meditation class which was amazing, and between all of this, I made this short video which has one of my favorite stories about sending pink light to thwart off negative influences. I hope you enjoy it!
That was the theme for today's episode of Harriette Knight's Psychic & Healing Hour on Blog Talk Radio. What a great show! To hear the broadcast, simply click on the player above. As promised to all the listeners, here are 7 Tips on How to Love Yourself. The link to the entire 45 minute lecture is below. But first, I wanted to share this note I received after the show from one of the listeners:
"I started to take notes, and you got a
caller (don't remember which one or what the topic was) all of a sudden,
I must have been gettting some healing or the discussion must have resonated ...I was in a trance. I came out of it during the woman with
the accent and felt exhausted. As soon as the show ended, I poured a
big glass of water, and I am now feeling motivated again. What do you make of that?" SL
Amazing, right? I always let listeners know that just by listening they could experience a healing, and it sounds like this listener did! Tune in every Wednesday at 3PM PT. It's always a lively show with a lot of information, AND you can get a psychic question answered for free!
7 TIPS ON HOW TO LOVE
YOURSELF
On March 25, 2010, I gave a lecture called "7
TIPS ON HOW TO LOVE YOURSELF." Think about it. Who are you with 24 hours a
day? If you are going to be with someone 24 hours a day, you really ought to
LOVE them. No one would hang around with anyone for that amount of time that
they didn't like, right? So, here are some tips for you to help love yourself
even more. There's a free gift for you, too, at the end of the
list.
Tip #1 - REMEMBER that You are Already
PERFECT The key word is REMEMBER. We come into our life as perfect
beings, but as we get older, we forget this fact. Remember that you are
perfect, and that every moment is perfect. Even if it feels less than perfect,
it is perfect at the time. You are perfect just as you are.
Tip #2 - STOP the Negative Mind Chatter! You
can stop the negative mind chatter, I promise! Simply NOTICE your thoughts. For
example, if you are running late for work and you are stopped by a traffic
light, you might have a tendency to get angry and say to yourself, "I can't
believe this light! This light is always red! It's out to get me! I hate this
light! I'm going to be late to work. I will lose my job. I will lose my house.
I will live in the gutter. I just might die!" Whoa! That is exhausting. It's
a traffic light. Notice your thought. "Oh, the traffic light is red." That's
it. The mind chatter stops. No need to beat yourself up.
Tip # 3 - Make NO your favorite word. When
you say "NO" to others, you are saying "YES" to yourself. If you find yourself
doing things because you think you should instead of because you want to, all
those Yeses can take their toll. It's okay to say "No." Children have no
problems saying "No," right? Exercise your right to say "No." It does not mean
you are a bad person. It means you are putting yourself first.
Tip #4 - Love the Baby Here's a wonderful
exercise. Close your eyes and picture yourself holding a baby. You may even
extend your arms as if you are really holding the baby. Feel the baby in your
arms. Feel the love you have for the baby. Look down at the baby and notice
that the baby is YOU. Continue to love the baby and let the baby know that you
will always protect them, guide them, and never leave them. They are safe
because you love them and nurture them. Do this for 21 days and watch your life
change. As the baby is nurtured, you will notice that the baby grows up.
Continue to love the child and let them know you will never leave them. As the
child grows into adulthood, they will mesh with you. This is a great way to
heal old wounds.
Tip #5 - PUT YOURSELF FIRST When you take
care of yourself, everyone around you will be taken care of. When you put
everyone else first, your energy will become depleted. You first, then your
husband, then your kids. You first, then your husband, then your kids. It
should be your mantra. If you have children, always take care of your
children's mother. If you don't have children, mother yourself.
Tip #6 - HONOR RECEIVING If you are a giver,
you must remember to receive. Receiving keeps the energy flowing so that giving
and receiving are mutually reciprocated. If someone gives you a compliment, say
"Thank you." Receive, receive, receive.
Tip #7 - Reclaim Your Power This is the most
important thing. If you are giving away your power to others, you can suffer
from low self-esteem or illness. By reclaiming your power you take your power
back which will enhance your life, give you confidence, energy, and the impetus
to move forward in a positive way. Based on a process by Robert Scheinfeld in
his book Busting Loose from the Money Game, you can learn how to reclaim
your power, and love yourself and your life even more. To hear the process and
learn more about How to Love Yourself, please enjoy the FREE download of the 45
minute interactive lecture by clicking on the link below:
I'm feeling pretty good. My goal today was to do Lesson 4 for the Daily Om online course I am contracted to do. Wow, I have a new respect for teachers. Creating a course takes time! But I did it. Even though I did a bazillion other things like go to yoga, go to the eye doctor, grab mom and go to Home Goods and the mall, decorate and then re-decorate by putting everything back to the way it was when I started, and then after watching the Laker game (YAY - OMG I love Derek Fisher) and then the season finale of Glee (YAY - OMG I love that show), I sat down and did Lesson 4. It's midnight and I just finished.
This does not include the videos and audios that will go along with the lessons, this is just the writing part. But so far, I'm on track, and very very excited. It's a great online course all about the chakras, and I think everyone who takes the course will be very very pleased.
I know, I know, I'm a broken record, but I am excited about this week's show. The theme is YOU ARE NOT ALONE, and in addition to answering psychic questions for free, I will welcome comments about feeling alone or whether you have felt that someone or something was there with you. Should be a great show!
Today I wrote Lesson 3 for the 8 week Online Course for Daily Om. I'm reminded of when I was writing my book CHAKRA POWER! and I was so driven to get it done. It feels good to write. So good. So right.
And then as if scripted in a movie, I got an email from Craig Duswalt who was so instrumental in making my book come to life. He announced that through his Rock Star System for Success Program, and How to Write a Book in 30 Days Seminars 55 books have been published. WOW! 55 new authors....so far!!! What I love the most is that I was the first one to complete their book. It's my own personal triumph. His program is amazing, and writing the book has changed my life forever. I am so grateful, Craig!! Here is the link with some of the other authors and their books - http://craigduswalt.com/bookwriting/index.html.
Did you watch Breaking Bad last night? Holy s@#%$~! I'm still freakin'!!!

If you mark the show a favorite, you will get email reminders! The theme this week is - 'You Are Never Alone.' Don't miss!

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday....ayyyy
You know that song? Pleasant Valley Sunday, by the Monkees? OMG, I LOVED The Monkees. Their first album was the first album I bought with my own money. I think it was $2.99 at Radio Sales on Millburn Avenue in Millburn, NJ. Who would know that years (I mean YEARS) later I would be living in a pleasant valley myself in CA. The Monkees song is written about a day like today in a valley like this, though the valley I live in is the next valley over from the Valley they wrote about. THE Valley. You know, the gag me with a spoon Valley.
It was hot today, but right now, at 7:30 at night, it is perfect. The breeze is ridiculously delicious and sitting outside in my outdoor sanctuary with a book the chimes singing a song, well, pleasant valley Sunday indeed.
I started off the day with a healing client, which is always a great way to start the day. Then it was laundry which for some reason seemed effortless; I must just be floating along. I thought I would treat myself with a jaunt to Goodwill. I love Goodwill. I love thrift shops. I just love it. Today's journey did not disappoint. A few books, some new pajamas, a beautiful embroidered blouse, and two boxes of very cool beads. What a find!
After that it was the pet store and the human store (Trader Joes) and a quick visit to see my friend Christiane because the turquoise and brown leopard pajama pants I got at Goodwill were really screaming her name. So was Patrick Swayze's autobiography. I was right on both counts and Christiane was so happy!
I'm hitting the Snapea Crisps pretty hard right now, so I'm going to sign off now and indulge in some Breaking Bad and Drop Dead Diva tv watching. Life is good. Very good.
My day started EARLY even before 6AM which is unheard of for me, but I got up and ready so I could be at Albertson's Parking Lot by 7. It was already HOT HOT HOT outside, so it was a good thing I had my EZ Up and really good friends to help me set it in place. Since the event was only 3 hours, and loads of customers and friends came to visit, the time flew by. By 11:30AM I was done and ready for the next part of my day. Even now, it isn't 6PM and it feels like it should be 9:00 at night!!! You really do get a lot done when you start at dawn!
Quite a few necklaces are flying out the door! Today I shipped off orders to Australia and New Jersey, not to mention the ones floating around California. They are being snatched up practically as quickly as I churn them out. This is an incredible feeling, and my creative juices are pouring out of me into new things. It's so joyful when I see how the jewelry makes someone feel. The necklace comes alive when it is on the right person. Like a light switch is turned on inside of it. The best!!
It is still HOT outside, but the breeze is beautiful and my outdoor sanctuary beckons. I think I am going to grab my book and enjoy some time out there. My plumeria is blooming as we speak. I mean that literally. I went outside earlier and wondered, "Hmmm, maybe one day I will have plumeria blossoms," and not an hour later I went back outside and there was one in bloom!!!! That's like WOW!! I'm anxious to see if more of them are hatching, that is how quickly it is happening!
I thought I would include today's Daily Healing Wisdom here since I think it is so appropos in light of my plumeria experience. For more Daily Healing Wisdoms, please click HERE.
6/5 - "There are gratitude
journals, dream journals, and daily journals, but what about a
'surprise' journal? Recording all the things that surprise you during
the day is the quickest way to learn present moment awareness." HK
I have to hurry. Because in mere hours (at 7AM) I am supposed to be at Albertson's Parking Lot in Saugus for the Mom's Club of Saugus Boutique Fundraiser from 8-11AM. And I still have to load up my car. Got caught up in loading pictures on my website of SOLD items. I have a SOLD gallery and 3 pages worth of pix. The pictures are not in any particular order so it's fun to surf.
Today was busy AGAIN! A healing client this morning and then jewelry, jewelry, jewelry. I made 2 new necklaces, 4 yoga necklaces, a car charm, and I'm sure there was more. I got caught up futzing with my computer and the Spyware Doctor which I think has caused my computer severe slowage so now I am having unprotected web activity and I know I know I am prone to some STD's, but everything is on super speed now and you know I am a speed demon when it comes to internet activity!
Come by in the morning to Albertson's! It's only 3 hours of about 25 vendors. Wow! Should be fun. And intense. I love fun and intense.
Hope to see you there. Oh, by the way, here are the two necklaces I made today. The long black butterfly fan one sold in mere minutes of posting to one of my (favorite) customers in Australia! Love that!
"Harriette, You are totally AWESOME! The healing continues and it is all good.
What a special gift you have and I am very grateful you are willing to share
with others. Thank You! Peace Out - Mama J"
Enough Hours in the Day?
GO LAKERS!
I am actually a huge Laker fan, though I don't get a chance to watch the games like I used to. But tonight they won Game 1 of the Finals and just having it on in the background without even watching made me happy.
Years ago when I was dating someone who at the time was semi-important but loaded with drama, one of the perks was that we would go to all the Laker home games at Staples Center and our seats were right behind Jack Nicholson. Okay, that was totally fun! I instantly became a fan and was really into stats and stuff like that, but as the years have gone by I remained a fan without watching even one game. But, tonight, I put the game on while making this necklace....
It's such a cool piece (peace) and feels so good on!
This morning started off early with a healing client, and then I raced off to the Betty Ferguson Foundation Lunch and Learn to hear my friend, Tami Lindahl share her story. It's always so amazing to hear about someone's life. Tami is a personal fitness trainer, author, and is truly following her dreams. Her website is www.HealthySCV.com and her phone number is 661-312-4239. Check her out!
After lunch, I raced home (but not before I sold some jewelry out of the back of my car - I am not kidding) to return phone calls, book appointments, and then do another healing session. When that was over, a jewelry customer came by, and even though I was soooooooo hungry, I sat down and created the peace (piece) above. It is unfortunate that I was unable to do Lesson 3 for the Daily Om online course about the chakras, but really, there were not enough hours in the day. My goal is to have the online course completed by June 26th the day the eclipse falls EXACTLY on my North Node (and sun and mercury). I think that is a perfect manifestation of the energy!
Don't forget to drop by the Albertson's Parking Lot in Saugus on Saturday morning from 8-11AM for the Mom's Club Fundraiser Boutique. Great vendors! Lots of goodies!!
I don't know why I call it a Daily blog when it is more like a midnight blog - it's after 12:30 AM as we speak. My schedule has been ridiculously full. Absolutely ridiculous. I'm not complaining, believe you me.
This morning I dove into Lesson 2 of the Online Course for Daily Om. Only 6 more to go and the videos. It's really taking shape. I love writing and I love writing this course. It's so different than my book even though it also called CHAKRA POWER. That's astonishing to me, that it is the same information but feels so different in this translation. I shouldn't say the same information. There are some new things thrown in. I had forgotten how much I love the writing process. I know it is getting closer and closer to my next book which will be part of the Chakra Power Series.
As you know, my other passion is my weekly radio show. OMG I just love it. And today I had a great show planned around the theme, "What Would You Do if You Had No Fear?" which is one of my favorite questions to ask. In keeping with the theme, just before the show was going live, my computer thoroughly glitched. I mean FROZE and I started looking like a deer in the headlights myself. Fortunately my daughter exhibited uncharacteristic calm and brought her laptop out. But what the radio audience did not see as I was doing my opening ramble, was that she couldn't log in. My password was jumbled in my head and nothing was working. When we finally got that right, remember I was live on the air, I had to direct her (silently since I was talking on the show) how to get the switchboard and chat going. We finally got that, but since it is a laptop, you actually have to sort of maneuver your fingers over the little pad that serves as a mouse. This was putting me over the edge, but I listened to the playback and the radio gods must've been smiling on me because you really cannot tell how severe the technical difficulties really were. No one would believe that I did not get my computer back to normal until the show was completely over. The show must go on, and it did!

After the show I finished up some custom jewelry pieces which the customer just LOVED, and then had a healing client who was equally happy. Interspersed between all of this, my phone was ringing like crazy. I can't even imagine what is going to happen as we head into the June 26th eclipse which is directly, I mean EXACTLY on my North Node. The North Node is your Dharma, your life path. I'm beginning to feel as if I have waiting my entire life for this very moment in time.
There is more jewelry to make before the Mom's Club Boutique at the Albertson's Parking Lot on Bouquet in Saugus on Sat. morning from 8AM - 11AM. Three hours of intense vending! Come on by and see all the new jewelry pieces. It should be a lot of fun.
It's 1AM now, and I'm going to finish up some work before climbing into bed and reading. Night owl? Oh no, not me!
You know that song? Some Enchanted Evening? It's a good one. I saw South Pacific tonight at the Ahmanson in Downtown LA. The song is from South Pacific and two hours and 55 minutes of other songs you'd recognize. L O N G show, but very good. The singers were amazing. Though some songs were L O N G like I said. I went with my friend, Ronnie, who is my cultural arts buddy. She's now become BFF's with my daughter so she went, too. It wasn't as much of an enchanted evening for her. But dinner at Kendalls was as usual, divine.
Today I woke up with the entire Lesson 1 for the Daily Om Online Course mapped out in my head, so I immediately got up and wrote it. I have the videos mapped out, too, so I will get to them ASAP. I'm super excited about this course and now with only 7 more lessons to go, we are on our way!
After yoga (at least I've been going once a week which is better than nothing), it was a custom jewelry day with two customers with gorgeous beads and stones and visions in tow. I've been doing quite a few custom pieces lately and I love it! In addition to the new necklaces I've been churning out, there's been a lot of creativity spillage. It's the best kind.
Tomorrow is radio show day. Woohoo, I'm excited. The calendar on this end is full full full. Who knows what will happen next!
"Harriette Knight made me the most amazing necklace today using
turquoise and amber (that was my grandmother's). She will be working on one for my sister next... can't wait to see it." Julie Molinare via Facebook
Me and Helen Reddy
I understand that some people may not even know who Helen Reddy is, but that didn't stop me from tweeting and posting on my FB profile that "I am doing so many things right now, I feel like a Helen Reddy song." My son is a master tweeter and quite frankly, I thought mine was pretty good, but the truth is , the statement is true. (I am woman, hear me roar! - Thank you, Ms. Reddy). I am the symbol for multi-tasking right now.
I've got sweet potato fries in the oven and they weren't the pre-fab kind, they were already cut up but I had to do the oil, salt, pepper thing (okay not a big deal, but still), and I'm writing my blog, posting new jewelry on my website, doing paperwork, putting the wash in the dryer, and that was just the last 5 minutes. It has been quite a busy and fulfilling day.
This morning I was honored to be a guest on a Blog Talk Radio Show (no, not my own - lol) called the Celestial Chronicles hosted by Dionysus C. It was GREAT FUN and a lot of information about the Chakras was shared. I am passionate about teaching what the chakras do, where they are, what colors and gemstones are associated with them - it is just soooooo cool to share this information, especially on the radio which is my other passion.

I did happen to make a few new necklaces today. One was a custom piece which I can't share because it is a surprise gift, but I can share the other two. We are talking powerful energy coming off of them. I am looking forward to working with all the new turquoise I got - pendants AND beads. Wait till you see. Until then, check these new ones out.

I don't have a house at the beach. However, sometimes when the wind is hot and dry and the temperature rises to near 90 degrees, I open all the windows and pretend that just outside my door, just beyond my outdoor sanctuary, is the beach. It's a wonderful feeling.
Today I took that beachy-ness and visited with my daughter (always entertaining), went on a little art retreat (new necklaces below), read the paper under the beach umbrella in the backyard, ate the biggest salad ever in my 'Thank You Jesus' bowl (I actually have a ceramic bowl I got in a thrift store in Ventura that says 'Thank you, Jesus' on the bottom where the artist's signature usually goes), watched my favorite show Breaking Bad, watched a good movie called Trucker, and even watched Sex and the City I to redeem itself for the appalling Sex and the City II I saw on Friday.
Not to mention the most fun pre-interview phone call I had this morning with Dionysus C whose radio show Celestial Chronicles will air tomorrow morning at 10AM PT on Blog Talk Radio with me on it!! What fun!! Dionysus is extraordinarily knowledgeable on an array of topics including astrology, psychic phenomena, spiritualists and so much more!! And to think, he is only 19 years old!! It's almost too bad our pre-interview call wasn't recorded; it was so lively and fun! I look forward to chatting again in the morning. Here is the link to listen in at 10AM PT on Monday morning or 24/7 thereafter: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/dionysus-crawford/2010/05/31/celestial-chronicles-psychic-medium-re-connective-
You may have noticed that this is a new blog page. I love when a page is all fresh and new. This blog page picks right up where the last one left off. If you wanted to catch up on what was happening before today, please click HERE. A new dawn, a new day in the life of HK. And an amazing day it was.
I was fortunate to be a vendor at the SCV Blues Concert in the Park all day today. It was incredible! First of all, the weather was absolutely scrumptious even with all the wind. Once I got my goods secured on my table, I was good to go. The response to the jewelry was wonderful; everyone just loved everything! There was lots of live blues music, and kid's activities, a car show, food, and FRIENDS!! I saw old friends, new friends, friends and more friends. It was the best!! Here a picture!
Tonight it was more friends and a birthday dinner for one of them. We all met at Karma - such delicious (Indian Food) and we had the best time (even though my ex-fiance was there and some thought that might be a problem. It wasn't. And for those who might be wondering, after a brief hello, that was all we said to each other.) The entire day and evening was just delightful.
