What is your decision?
What a time to be alive, right? The COVID-19 pandemic has kicked off an individual process for many people and, above all, a collective process for humanity. Previously, I wrote about the life plans that we usually pre-design and the control that, at certain times, we long to have (or think we have). It seems to me that one of…
Do You Have a Life Plan?
Like me, it may have happened to you that you have received this question from your parents, friends, partner or someone you just met at the last social event you attended. To have a plan…this must be dissected carefully. I have come to realize, like myself, that many people around me fear the uncertainty of life. The feeling of “having…

The Way of the Seed
Everything about our existence involves a process… One of my passions is planting. It is gratifying to consume fresh and organic food grown by myself. In my case, this activity is not only limited to the mere obtaining of food. Beyond this, it represents constant learning of life itself. In plants, I have found great teachers who have shared with…
The courage of being myself
‘He who goes to war to kill innocent children, can never be a hero’, my teacher used to say when I was in 3rd grade in a small Bavarian village.‘Imagine a bank robbery’, he used to continue. ‘The robbers take a young woman and her child as hostage, threaten to kill them with their guns. Would you stand up and offer…
Promise of a Rose
Very often I feel very small.Unperfect, unfinished, not at all fitting my expectations. I read great spiritual teachers and – oh my God! – they are so wise and they have so much life experience and frustrated I shake my head and look at my own poor existence.Well, because I fell into the comparison trap… Went back to competition mode…
Human Connections as Medicine

On a previous visit to Peru I began to understand and feel something that subsequently gained strength when I was at home. I came to understand the power of human connections; people are one of the…
Fusion: Now
It was a beautiful wedding, nervously and fearfully planned yet filled with so much Love. Me, Oliver, the occidental male brain driven guy, marrying Moonchild, the shamanic intuitional indigenous woman. My heart may have missed some beats when I finally put my white hand into her brown one. Shyly looking to the left and her smile making me smile, too.…
Take the long way Home…
This post will be on ‘the Path’, the sometimes legendary, often cursed, mostly invisible and yet fulfilling way Home. But please, dear reader, allow some words on this blog, ‘the Snowy Owl’, first. I had started with the intention to track down or to chronologically describe my ‘long, dark night of the soul’ that had started in July last year…
