					<description><![CDATA[This week we got much needed rain along with beautiful lightning and roaring thunder. Torrential downpours accompanied at times by fierce winds, exquisite clouds, and inklings of sunshine. I’ve heard it said that the old year does not leave all at once and sometimes, as was this week, not so quietly. This week I left&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://vickidobbs.com/wood-snakes-fire-horses-thunder-and-lightning/" rel="bookmark">Read More &#187;<span class="screen-reader-text">Wood Snakes, Fire Horses, Thunder, and Lightning</span></a>

					<description><![CDATA[There comes a moment, most often unexpected and sometimes quietly sacred, when you realize something is complete. A cycle has run its course. A chapter is closing. You’ve outgrown the old skin, the familiar rhythm, the worn-out version of yourself. As bittersweet as endings can be, they’re also awesome invitations. Invitations to step into something&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://vickidobbs.com/beginnings-endings-and-badass-opportunities/" rel="bookmark">Read More &#187;<span class="screen-reader-text">Beginnings, Endings, and Badass Opportunities</span></a>

					<description><![CDATA[Over twenty-five years ago, I met Lynn Andrews’ books, and they were life-changing to say the least. While in her four-year shamanic mystery school, she introduced me to the concept of “good enemies”. She taught me about awareness and the different energies that swirl about us. She showed me how to turn around and confront&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://vickidobbs.com/excited-exhausted-and-ready-to-roll-on/" rel="bookmark">Read More &#187;<span class="screen-reader-text">Excited, Exhausted, and Ready to Roll On</span></a>

					<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was the Spring Equinox, marking a moment in time when day and night stand in near-perfect balance with each other. It is the annual turning point that welcomes in the energy of renewal, balance, and awakening. A time of shifting us from the introspective energy of winter into the blooming and fertile expansion of&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://vickidobbs.com/welcoming-the-light-of-spring/" rel="bookmark">Read More &#187;<span class="screen-reader-text">Welcoming the Light of Spring</span></a>

					<description><![CDATA[It’s that magical time of year… the season of twinkling lights, jingling bells, and the perennial question that pops up like a holiday fruitcake: What’s on your list? I ask my kids, my grandkids, my husband, sister, friends. You know the drill? And how many times do you get a real answer? Ah, the list.&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://vickidobbs.com/whats-on-your-list/" rel="bookmark">Read More &#187;<span class="screen-reader-text">What&#8217;s on Your List?</span></a>
