February 14, 2026

Happy Valentine’s Day, My Friend 💛

It feels fitting that we’re still in The Correction of Error on a day that celebrates love. We’ve been walking through this section slowly, one paragraph at a time, and maybe there’s a little voice that says, “Okay… I get it. Can we move on now?” But have you noticed what happens when we don’t rush? When we stay with it, each paragraph opens up in ways we didn’t expect. What looked simple at first starts revealing layers we didn’t see the first time through.

This week’s class, “How to Correct Error Without Attack or Judgment | ACIM – The Correction of Error (Part IV),” focused on paragraph 6. Something interesting begins to happen when we move this slowly. The teaching doesn’t just stay intellectual. It starts working on us. It gently shows us how attached we are to correcting, fixing, and holding onto our upsets. Sometimes the urge to move on isn’t about boredom. It’s just that truth has a way of getting close. And when we let it, slowly and steadily, it begins to reach deeper than our surface agreement and into the habits that actually run our reactions. And what better day than Valentine’s Day to look at the ways we correct instead of love?

It’s one thing to understand the principles of A Course in Miracles when you’re calm and reflective, and another to remember them when you’re triggered, overwhelmed, or reacting in the middle of real life. That is where the practice truly happens, in relationships, decisions, disappointments, and those moments when the ego still sounds convincing. I am available to support you there. Through a Clarity Session, we can take a focused look at what is unfolding in your life right now and gently shift your perception toward the peace that is already available to you. And for those who desire deeper, ongoing guidance, I offer coaching and mentoring, drawing from more than 40 years of studying, practicing, and living the teachings of A Course in Miracles. I can help you save time and walk with you into a deeper understanding and practical application of these teachings, so that they are not just ideas you are exploring, but truths you are actively living. You do not need to be fixed. I am simply here in service to support you in remembering who you truly are.

If you’re feeling the pull to go deeper, the Mighty Companions Miracle Community offers a steady space for real integration of A Course in Miracles through an annual membership of $108 designed for students who want continuity, not just inspiration. Members receive weekly Study Guide Journals, unlisted ACIM playlists, the Language of Love Glossary, and invitations to exclusive workshops and group sessions, all created to support consistent, lived practice over time.

Please come out and join the community.

Sunday at 1:00 pm MST.
Unity Temple | 1555 Race Street, Denver
(Doors open at 12:30 PM)

We meet to remember that no one walks the way alone.

Finding Guidance for the Now!

As we move further into 2026, many people are noticing an energetic shift — a feeling that something is stirring beneath the surface. Even if you can’t quite name it, you may sense areas of your life being rearranged or redirected. That’s not your imagination. The energy of this year continues to unfold, and it’s asking you to pay attention to what’s trying to come alive in you.

If you’d like grounded spiritual insight into the patterns shaping your path right now, I’m offering astrology and numerology readings that help you understand your timing and the movement of your inner cycles. These sessions aren’t about predicting the future; they’re about helping you align with it. Together, we look at what’s shifting, what’s ready to be released, and how to move forward with clarity instead of resistance.

If you feel it’s time to stop second-guessing yourself and trust the direction life is pointing you, I’d be honored to explore the map with you.

Here are ways we can keep growing together:

Thank you for walking this journey with me.

You Cannot Correct Error by Attacking It

A Course in Miracles often uses radically honest logic that can be startling if you are really listening. In The Correction of Error, paragraph 6, it makes a statement that dismantles the ego’s entire approach to healing: you cannot correct yourself. That is not an insult and it is not a condemnation. It is a clarification. If correction were possible at the level of fear, guilt, and conflict, peace would already be here. The fact that conflict continues is not a failure; it is simply evidence that correction does not occur where the ego has been trying to make it happen.

You Cannot Correct Another

Once you truly hear that you cannot correct yourself, the next idea follows naturally: if you cannot correct yourself, there is no way you can correct someone else. This is where the ego argues the hardest, because it believes its purpose is to fix people, situations, and the world. But if you are still upset, reactive, or afraid, then you are not seeing clearly enough to be the corrector of anyone. Trying to fix another person while you are in conflict is not helpful—it is just conflict redirected outward.

Errors Do Not Come From the Truth

One of the most stabilizing ideas in this teaching is that errors do not come from the truth in anyone. What people do when they are angry, defensive, or attacking is not coming from who they really are. Mistakes arise from wrong-mindedness, from the belief in separation, from the ego. They do not arise from the loving, sane, innocent part of the mind. And because errors do not come from truth, they have no power to change the truth in anyone.

✨ Astrology Insight for February 13–21, 2026

This is a significant astrological week, marked by a shift from dreaming to structured action. On February 13, Saturn enters Aries, beginning a two-year cycle focused on courage, responsibility, and disciplined initiation. Saturn has been in Pisces, emphasizing faith and vision. In Aries, the message becomes clear: build something real. This is structured courage, not impulsiveness. If you have been waiting, this transit supports beginning.

On February 17, a Solar Eclipse in Aquarius brings sudden shifts around community, friendships, and long-term goals. Eclipses accelerate change. You may feel prompted to release associations that no longer align and step toward new networks that better reflect who you are becoming.

Then on February 20, Saturn conjuncts Neptune at 0° Aries, one of the most important alignments of the year. Neptune represents vision and spiritual longing. Saturn represents structure and form. Together, they support grounding dreams into tangible action. This is about translating inspiration into commitment.

With the Sun entering Pisces on February 18, intuition and compassion remain essential. The overall theme is clear: ground your vision, take mature action, release what no longer fits, and build with integrity. Astrology describes the weather. How you respond is your power.
