Women of Joy and Power
Recently I added a marvelous experience to my life. I expected it to be mostly on the earth plane and about aiding women to create business opportunities for themselves. I was half right. A broader explanation of it would have been women teaching other women the business of becoming the most far seeing and large- visioned versions of themselves possible. There was RAW POWER in this group of over 600 women who learned about the use of oxytocin, and collaboration. What is oxytocin and how easy is it for you to allow someone else into your fields of endeavor? What exactly does collaboration mean to you? That has not always been easy for me and so this openness was new.
I was invited along with 70 others to this event as one who works with healing energy. In some respects I live an insular life so don't do a lot of conventions etc. but this felt like a call from the powers to whom I am responsible, so I went, not knowing exactly what to expect. I have always felt BraveHeart Women, the sponsor, was a great group who seek to empower all women, but have never been really involved with them. Yet at this event, which was a good combination of both spirit led experiences, teachings to help women understand the differences between feminine and masculine energies and how to work with that, and entrepreneurial work, I was given very specific clarity about my spiritual work as well. Now I understood the jargon meaning of " Don't play small", saw the balance of Be*Create*Collaborate and understood the needed balance of Personal purpose, Professional purpose and Global purpose. Now it's time to roll up my sleeves and begin that work I saw laid out for me, to create the realities I saw in my New Clarity. I'll make notes here of the path that creates so we may all learn from it.

I am passionate about being an artist, teacher and healer; I work shamanically, often being guided very specifically to use certain colors and shapes, images or techniques in my art, adding words that are given to me as well. I am compelled to do this work and see it as a tool for the assistance of others in their own journeys. It is the work of my life, My Heart’s Path. I enjoy doing it more than anything else there is.
While I use the term healer, I am really more like a guide who can bring others to portals, to mirrors that allow them to create their own healing processes and changes. No one person really heals another without that person’s input. It has been the most amazing journey of my life to come to an awareness and knowing of these gifts and how I am able to use them.
Thus my intent for all of my art is to offer beautiful food to our souls and create aids for new ways to heal and solve our problems. Many of the most ancient processes and ways of leaning about our lives and selves are also among the newest ways. The finger labyrinths I have created are a wonderful example of this. Using readings based on the Power Deck and Soul Cards as teachings rather than fore-tellings is another method of helping us to SEE ourselves and areas of our lives and behaviors we may wish to change.
Everyday is another chapter of learning for me. I am so grateful for this journey I am on and must credit my teachers and mentors over the years, especially Lynn Andrews and her School of Sacred Arts and Training. Truly my life is alive with mystery and magic in a very special sense of those words and I feel blessed to be able to SEE in so many new ways.
