Welcome to the week of  winter Solstice, the darkest week of the year which we instinctually light up with festive lights and bonfires, and warm-hearted gestures.

I had my first spontaneous astral projection experience back in the fall of 1975 in Devil’s Lake, Wisconsin:
“One moonless dark night, I had just curled up in my
