Fawn's Back
We spent this last springtime in the Hamptons, then Fred and I went off at the end of May up to Saratoga, NY. It was great to be up there with our dear friend Bill and his trusty dog, Billibob.
Fawn's our dearly loved and troubled 1985 SEL Mercedes had been sitting on Bill's land since I had my fateful crash with her last August. I could feel our car was just sitting there waiting for us to help her even if it just meant to sell her off to someone who would love her.
A few days later Fred tried to start the car up but nothing happened because the battery is dead. The car hadn't been started in months and it's clear we need to get a new battery. Bill tells us about a place close by and this is a big help because it's very hard to move the car, with the way I crashed it, the whole back end is completely crunched in.
At the battery place Fred meets up with the very upbeat owner of the shop, Beth. Fred shares with her how much we love the car, but the estimates we have been given to fix her are way too high. So it's with sadness that we are looking to sell her. Beth recommends a guy down the road who might be able to help us do something with the car.
Fred calls Rodney the guy she told him about. He agrees to come and check the car out. He does and then calls Fred telling him that he has a special very high tech machine that can pull the car out. This very costly machine will uncrunch the car and then he'll a complete picture of what's really going on with the car.
We take a day to have the time to pray, meditate on getting the right clarity about what to do or not do with the car. It becomes very clear to us both after being in our prayer and asking process that it's a go to do the 'pull' then see what's condition the car's in.
We love Fawn and at this point just want what's best for her, whatever that will be. Rodney calls after the pull telling Fred that the car isn't as bad as she looks. He suggests that he'll look her over more completely and work up an estimate of what it would cost to fix her up.
After looking over his estimate a few days later, Fred and I agree that the estimate is fair and now we can restore the car. So it's a go and after 5 weeks or so,the final call comes in from Rodney that the car is finished and ready to go on the road.
Fred, our dear friend Bill, and I drove over the next morning. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. We drive over to Rodney's where the car is sitting outside the office door. She looks perfect. I believe it's some kind of miracle that she's back even more beautiful than before!
Bill later shares with me that when he and Fred first walked up to the car, he looked over at Fred and saw that he had tears in his eyes. Oh my, it's so great for me to be one of the ways that Spirit/Divine Source worked the magic of manifestation.
I can't help but smile giving thanks to my Master Teacher's for all the most wonderous, unexpected ways Fred and I were guided and provided for. Now we have Fawn back into our lives, better than ever and yes, Fawn's back!
Love/Light blessings to you all, Katrina

ONE LOVE, ONE LIFE
Dear Friends, I wrote this at 7:54am 15th of May.
Been up early,now I'm back/ present in my body after a deep period of meditation.
I can hear the flap of air swooshing. I just know it's Papa Swan flying into our waterfront here putside our home in Westhampton. I walk over to our living room area then open all the windows that look onto the waterfront. I expect to see my darling swan friend,I know it has to be Papa Swan because Mama swan I believe who just had her baby signets I'm sure she's somewhere out there taking care of their babies.
I keep looking out the window and I'm a little surprised that I don't see my swan friend. Fred comes into the room-I share with him that I heard Papa Swan fly in but I don't see. a few minutes go by,I leave Fred to go on and make us a good cup of tea. I can see Fred outside our kitchen window. He walks into the house,comes over and tells me he's just found Papa Swan waiting to be fed by our dock.
Oh yes, I am excited to find him and I grab some of the swans favorite bread-12 grain of course, and now go out to feed him. Fred reminded me yesterday when we fed the swan family altogether, -Mama,Papa,their 5 signets,just how much Papa Swan had been aretaking Mama-now their signets and so that's why Mama&Papa are so hungry.
This early morning when I was out by the water's edge feeding and praising my swan friend,I told him outloud what a great job he's been doing with Mama and their babies.
Today my time with my swan friend got me very in touch with the Truth of Higher Wisdom,that the Love,the Unconditonal Love in our lives that we give freely and receive freely is all that really matters.
Loving unconditionally is the Source and Sum Total of who we All are now and forever.
I love you all always, Katrina

SpringTime Wake-ups
I am as you God created me. I am a healing practitioner. I am a psychic clairesentient as well,clairesentient defined as one who sees images/part hearing/part feeling.So right here and now I bring forth into the Light some thoughts,feelings,experiences for me to better understand myself and you.
Right now it's Springtime in the Hamptons and all is budding green and it's all so beautiful. My swan friends are doing their swan thing. Mama Swan sitting on here nest somewhere out there,waiting to birth her baby signets. It could be that they've been born already and she's caring for them in their nest that she and Papa Swan built.
I see them,feel them as I become more aware of the cycles of life that goes around and around. It's like a mirror for me and my life living here on the water's edge with my life partner Fred. I know that all this Beauty is the expression of the Perfection of Nature.
It amazes me just how simple and perfect all the cycles of nature and the animals lives are. Can it be the same for me and you? I am seeing with my inner spiritual Third Eye,seeing things and patterns of my life more clearly,like a lens of a camera that's coming more and more into focus. With this kind of expanded vision I am more aware of my life unfolding in all kinds of Divine Perfect Order. Of course all this can only happens when I Will my personality to get out of the way!This shift of perception also puts me into Right Relationship with myself and all other Souls in my life. This Allowing provides the space in time for my life to unfold more and more in truly wonderful, miraculous ways.
For me it is a great Blessing to share my Divinely Inspired feelings,thoughts,impressions of this Divine Light with you now and always, love Katrina

My Rainbow Colored Journey with the Lamas in New York City
Some time ago I left the city after living for almost ten years in Battery Park City and moved with Fred to live by the healing waters of the Atlantic Ocean in the Hamptons, the 'big waters' of great Light and healing.I want to tell you about an experience of great transformation for me that I had some years ago. It was at the time that Fred and I were living together in Battery Park in an apartment on the water's edge. One morning I was walking through the lobby of the World Trade Center building one. When I entered the lobby I saw a group of about six or seven Lamas (Tibetan monks). They were creating a special kind of painting called 'sand painting'. I watched the Lamas as they held long instruments like long poles which they were blowing into these pipes to make painting using many different colors of sand. It looked like to me like so many different patterns of sand in all kinds of fabulous colors, like a rainbow, like a Mandala of sand.
On a side table close to them I found a printed story about sandpainting and what it means to the people and most especially to the monks of Tibet. I watched the Lamas who seemed to inhale and blow out the colored sand onto a huge table surface of about 20 x 40 feet in front of them. It looked to me like a very large blank canvas. Their work surface was set behind large glass, like walls partitioned off so that dirt, dust and people could not intefere with their work.
In the printed story they handed out the Lamas said that they would be doing their sandpainting over a period of almost a month's time. When the painting was complete, the Lamas would perform a very special ritual. Upon completion, they would physically by a sweep of hands across the painting, like the winds of time destroy their painting in a most poetic way,it was their way of ending the paintings life.
The whole experience I had with the Lamas and this painting felt to me like my breathe was taken away! The story they told on their page said that this end of the painting was done in just this way to demonstrate and show the fragility of beauty of life in this, our physical world. This Tibetan ritual was performed to remind us of the impermanence of this, our physical world that we live in and our experiencing right now. This beautiful 'illusion' that they had created over so many hours and weeks would now be destroyed in one moment of time with just one sweep of the hand.
Their story ended by saying that after the ritual was performed the sands of the painting would be collected and carefully put into a container. Then, the Lamas would walk out of the World Trade building, cross the road and take all the sand to the shore of the Hudson River. Here they would open up and empty the container releasing the sand into the flowing waters of the Hudson River.
I look back on this day as I sit here with you, and am aware how honored I was to be a part of the sand painting ritual, if only as an observer. I see the pattern of Life that is saying to me, ALL that remains at the end of our physical lives is the Love, yes the Divine Love that we each have given and received in our lives.
We, the Children of the Light are each like beautiful sand paintings. So light, so beautiful, so uniquely different, and all Divine Souls. We are part of the 'impermanance' of this world, we will all one day shift out of our energy bodies when we experience this thing called death. Then we will be instantly 'reborn' and take on our real eternal bodies, our Divine Light Bodies.I think back now on the time of the physical events that took place on September 11, 2001. Now, I let go of all that I had seen, touched, walked through in those World Trade Buildings for so many times. It was all next to my home in Battery Park, all of that place in time is now gone! In one flash of energy, poof it no longer exists anymore.
For me, the beauty and the love of my time with the Lama, the World Trade buildings still remain in my heart and soul. To those souls who passed on that day on 9/11, we can support them with our love, light, and energy.
I remember that all the Souls now live now in the realm of God's Eternity, from which we all come from and will return to one day. I believe that we are all blessed at this time of great changes, challenges and transformation. I believe we are asked as Souls of the Divine Source to become more loving, aware, and awake beings. This call for love is one that we can consciously choose to live and be in now. This Force of Unconditional Love asks us to love with an open heart and mind and also be open to give and receive this Love more and more!
I am part of this soul family of men with you and I am forever grateful to Serve this love energy, wherever and whenever I am guided to. We are called at this time to walk together in the Light and Love of the Divine Source.
We can All shine on and on and on like in John Lennon's song lyric, like the stars, moons and the suns. Love to you from my heart and soul.
I wrote the above story soon after the events of September 11, 2001. Now, I have been asked and guided to pass it on here it to you. I am so Blessed to share it with you.
Love Always, Katrina

More Swan Love
So I'm here at the water's edge on Beaver Creek drinking my morning cup of tea with Fred. The Swan family swim to be close to us and I ask Fred to help me feed them because the three baby Swans are getting so big and hungry!Fred goes to one side of our lawn a little away from me and starts feeding Mommy, Daddy, and one baby Swan. I try to get all 3 baby Swans to join me so I can feed the whole wheat bread to them. It's a lot easier to feed them now with Fred's help. After we finish we go back into the house so they know that their feedtime is over.
I'm inside with Fred doing some meditation and alignment work. In a little while I look outside the window and notice Papa Swan is back alone and looking for more food and there's no way I'm going to give him more food.
I look up again and see 4 white Egrets flyby and land on the small dock that belongs to the house just next to ours. I'm surprised when Fred tells me he has just spotted the Egrets flying in a group because I had never seen more than 2 Egrets together. I get out the binoculars and watch closely as the birds are cleaning and drying out their feathers. They do their thing for a little longer and then the group flies off.
I can see that Papa Swan is still here by our dock alone. I look down the Creek and suddenly spot Mama and the three baby Swans flying towards us. Mommy Swan lands close to our house and the three young ones keep on flying away!
I go in the house and find Fred and together we watch the Mommy swim up close to her mate. They are alone for the first time in a long time. They look to me to be so much in harmony and peace. I stand close to Fred and tell him that this is the first time since the young Swans have been born that the parent swans are alone, a couple again. I feel inside of me a rush of energy knowing that now Mommy and Papa swan are free again! I tell Fred that I have to go out and be with them to celebrate their new freedom.
For me, I feel assured that I've just witnessed a rite of passage of Nature. Both swans had to let their babies go. I bring them one more piece of bread feeding them off our dock again. I say to my swan friends what great parents they've been, and tell them out loud that they are free!I say goodbye and go inside, and with Fred, watch them as they swim close to each other in such harmony. Fred comments that we first watched them mate in front of us on the water here in early spring. Months later, they brought their babies to us on the first day they were born, all 7 of them. Sadly, only 3 survived. Such are the ways of Nature and now today Mommy and Papa released them today to go on and be free in their young swan lives.
They have shared it all with us and I feel so blessed with such a gift from allowing us to be a part of their lives in such beautiful and intimate ways. A little later, I watch out the window as they both swim off. Then, I see the 3 young swans are back with them looking for food again.
The 'rite of passage of Nature' for me is such a beautiful and blessed gift to us all in this world! I love you always, blessings of Peace and Love.

Fawn Magic
Somewhere in horse country in New Jersey, Fred and I found a wonderful car to replace our old tired car. It was with a bit of sadness that I stood over our own dear Buick that Fred's mother had passed on to us a few years ago.
So there I was outside the car mechanics shop, saying a prayer of goodbye. I raised my hands and blessed this sweet old vehicle, thanking her for such a good job of taking Fred and I wherever we needed to go. Then I told Fawn that she had also been a great traveling companion for Fred's mom and dad. I sensed a peace come over me and a kind of release before walking away. I touched her hood giving her my love and goodbye.
Now it's time to get ready for our new car that Fred discovered on a bike ride he took about 2 weeks ago. On his bike ride, he himself in front of an old Buick dealership. He saw in the window a few antique cars on the floor. But what had really made him stop was a car he spotted parked outside, a beautiful gleaming older Mercedes with a 'for sale' small sign pasted on the side window. Fred took time to get a better look at this beautiful car. Later on Fred told me he had thoughts like maybe this car owner would be interested in some kind of a trade.
A few years ago, Fred owned an older Mercedes similar to this one. It was also this type of Mercedes I drove by accident into our house in the Hamptons. Oops, feeling nervous as a new driver I stepped on the gas pedal, not the brake.
So after the last Mercedes that I totalled, I never dreamt of having another older car like this in my life again. A few days later, Fred took me to see the car and when I first saw the car, I could definitely understand why he was so drawn to it. I felt this was a beautiful and elegant car, so we took a test drive with her.
I was surprised that I felt such strong energy about the car. The owner spoke on the phone with Fred a few days later and had a good feeling they would work something out. Fred made the deal the following Saturday, and drove her back to our friends house. After driving the car for a few days, Fred said how whole and right the car felt.
A few days later, Fred was looking through the cars papers and noticed that Mercedes name for this champagne color was Fawn. Upon hearing this discovery, I said to him let's call her Fawn, it's the perfect name for her. Then, I remembered our friends address is on Deer Path, and by some coincidence we lived on Deer Ridge Trail in the Hamptons when we had the other Mercedes.
I remembered how very often we had deer sightings when we lived there. Our house was built right next to a deer path, that they often walked on. Now I flashed back to a few days ago when I was in the kitchen of our friends house looking out the window and the garden outside. Suddenly, I saw a large adult deer munching on the flowers in the garden just a few feet away from me. I looked out the window, I then spotted 2 baby deer coming close to their Mommy, and now all three are snacking on the flowers in the garden.
I called out to and now together in amazement, we watched the deer family having a wonderful time eating all the flowers. A few minutes later, Mommy deer walked away and to our surprise the baby deers stayed on chomping and chewing away.
I stood very still and quiet with Fred and watched, I've seen deer close to our home on Deer Ridge Trail. The two baby deers strolled away to stand in the shade of a small tree next to the garden. The two of these amazingly beautiful fawns were now standing about 10-12 feet away from our new Fawn car. Then, they walked closer to our car stopping to eat some grass and in time wandered away into the woods to join their Mommy.
Later in the day I shared with Fred that it felt to me that our car Fawn was being 'fawned' by these gentle and beautiful baby deer. Fred and I had stayed in the kitchen window watching our deers for at least an hour. I sensed we were receiving a Great Blessing by nature.
Before some landscape people came and the lawn mowers noise scared them off. I managed to take a few photos of the baby deer sitting on the ground and eating the leaves under the small tree.
I sit here with you and feel so close to you and my deer family and in touch with their gentleness and perfect beauty. For me the deer visit was a sign and a great blessing for us and our new family car friend 'Fawn'. I believe that Nature and God brought to Fred and I our car Fawn that has the energy of such great beauty.
I'll see you soon, Love and Light always
