Raven's World-100

Wow, 100 channeled messages from the Animal Kingdom!!! Thank you my beautiful friends! Here's what Raven would like to share today:

"Your fears are there to show you the way. The way back home. In Spirit there is only Light. You are Spirit. In every moment you have the opportunity to remember who you truly are."

Gluten free eggplant bake

Greetings everyone. This is a wonderful healthier version of eggplant parmesan. Thought I'd share:

3 eggs (or egg substitute if you're vegan...you can use all almond milk, too)
3 T almond milk
1 cup Pamela's baking & pancake mix
1/2 cup garbanzo bean flour (for some extra protein for us veggie people..I use Bob's red mill)
2 eggplants (peal skin and slice 1/4-1/2" thick slices)
olive or grape seed oil
1 clove garlic
goat cheese (if you can do cheese, even though I can't do milk, I can tolerate some goat products)
black pepper
gf spaghetti sauce--1-2 jars
2 boxes Ancient Quinoa Harvest spaghetti (or other gf pasta of your choosing)


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. I use a nice heavy cast iron frying pan (extra iron for us veggie people!). Preheat over low-med heat. Add oil and the garlic clove crushed. Beat eggs with almond milk in a bowl. Mix Pamelas and garbanzo bean flour together in another bowl...you may want to add a bit of crushed pepper, too. Take each eggplant slice, dip both sides in egg mixture then flour mixture. Fry slices of eggplant in oil until brown on each side. (make sure pan always has plenty of oil) Put sauce in the bottom of a large baking dish to coat the bottom. Then place eggplant slices in baking dish. You'll probably get two layers. Top eggplant with more sauce and sprinkle goat cheese on top. Cover and bake for one hour. You may want to heat up extra sauce. Meanwhile cook pasta according to package directions. Enjoy!

Raven's World-99

Here's what Raven would like to share today on behalf of the Animal Kingdom:

"If you are not seeing evidence of the manifestation of your dreams, you need to ask yourself if you are offering thoughts and energy in opposition to that dream. If not, have faith!"

Peace and Healing Mother Earth

This past week I hosted a Psychic and Mediumship Development circle at The Purple Rose. I was guided to have the group do a meditation to a guide or helper and ask this question, "How can we bring peace and healing to Mother Earth." With the participants' permission, I'm sharing the answers that they received from Spirit. Here they are:

Patience; don't give up; work together; shine your light; the Earth takes in some of your light and then it makes the Earth stronger and she sends the light back up to us; we could see big changes but it's all positive, nothing to fear; surrender; let go and let it be; lead by example; send healing energy to the Earth, golden light; set intentions; gather with others in loving ritual to honor the Earth; let the fields rest and the crops rotate.

What do you think? Do you have any guidance or thoughts to share?

Raven's World-98

Here's what Raven would like to share today:

"Physical bodies are irrelevant. Your physical body is merely a vehicle for you to be here now and to learn from. You are here to learn the lessons you came in for. You get too hung up about your bodies. Your Spirit is eternal and you are already full of beauty from the light of the Creator."
