My Mom and I visited Sedona for her birthday, and we will always treasure that trip. It was beautiful in January with snow on the red rock. We stayed at a lodge with a cozy fireplace in each room. My energy felt clear there. It's as if normally I'm being bombarded with a hundred radio stations creating a high-frequency buzz in my brain. In Sedona, the hum evaporated and I had clear reception. You don't even realize the chatter is there until you're in Sedona and it's suddenly clear and open and your energy can soar! Thank you for your insightful blog ;-) Erin,

I'll have to plan an outing to check them out! To second what Laura said, Arizona has an unbelievable variety of climate, terrain, and beauty. There are day trips from Phoenix that can take you to coniferous mountain beauty or breathtaking canyonlands. Even the Sonoran desert has its own charm - just not during the day in the middle of summer! Mike Erin,

Sedona and downtown Prescott are like the jewels of Arizona, with Prescott being even greener than Sedona. Flagstaff is a mountain "city"--different energy, but a stunning drive from Sedona, especially if you go the back way. That's one of the most beautiful drives we've ever taken, and we've traveled/lived in a good portion of the US. @Laura, yes, Northern Arizona is gorgeous!

It is odd reading your post. In the past three days I have received pictures and rave reviews for recent trips to Arizona, and I was floored when I saw the pictures because I didn't expect there to be so much beauty in the state. I assumed (ignorantly) that it was all dry, hot , desert. So, three couples go and send me photos or tell me about it in a 3 day window. It makes me want to get on over to AZ and see what I'm missing! I am glad you both had a fun getaway. (and rewarding, too!) Erin,

Laura Bruno- Thanks for your reply to Thomas - I was also wondering why he would have had a "bad" experience. Thank you Erin for explaining the masculine/feminine energy.

(i worked at the center for the new age when we temporarily lived there in '04.) there are a surprising # of former sedona readers/healers in reno. supposedly lake tahoe and pyramid lake are vortexes, too. i personally think it's the sierras themselves, though. they were formed in a way unlike all the other u.s. mountain ranges. @Thomas, sometimes depending on which type of vortex you visit, you can have an intensely "bad" experience. it's usually the feminine ones that draw you into yourself b/c they pull you to work through blocks or wounds very fast. if you're expecting a grand, opening experience, the downward, inward pull can catch you off guard. @Erin, so glad you and steve enjoyed yourselves! it sounds like sedona’s back to being more vegan-friendly. when we lived there, one of the veggie places had just gone out of business. it was still very vegan-accessible, but it sounds even yummier now. how i miss new frontiers! what crystal shops/psychic places did you go to?

Apparently, each vortex has either a masculine or feminine energy, or a combination. You are supposed to go to a feminine vortex if you want to communicate with your own inner being or work out issues you're having. Sort of like going inside yourself. The masculine energy vortexes are for receiving communications from other entities. That's mainly what I was seeking, and what I got at the first vortext we went to.

"and also to recommend the masculine energy vortexes since I wanted to get a message from “out there” instead of inside myself. " What do you mean by masculine or feminine energy and how does that apply to (or does it apply) if we happen to be male or female. Thanks. Hi Erin,

You mentioned something that I don’t quite understand, you wrote…

What do you mean by masculine or feminine energy and how does that apply to (or does it apply) if we happen to be male or female. Thanks.

We went to Sedona on their reccomendation, and when we got there, I immediately wanted to leave the main strip, because it was too touristy for me. I tried to no avail to get the group to go somewhere off the main strip because the rocks were so amazingly beautiful. However, everyone else was sucked in by the vortex of consumerism. I sat on a wall watching the sun go down, while playing my flute...the only thing I bought while there. I should have just left them and went alone, hah. Erin,

It was an incredible experience. The unadultered beauty of the place is hard to forget - I can still remember so many things about it in sharper relief than many other vacations I've had (or the rest of our visit in AZ, for that matter ^_^ ). We went to visit only one of the vortexes. It ended up not being a very good experience. At this point my family and I were hiking towards one of the vortexes, and a really foul mood came over me the closer we got. Once we left, I felt great and energized again. It wasn't until afterward that I was informed that we had been at one of the vortex locations. I still don't know what to make of it.
