Calling Back the Goddess
Quickly the sun approaches that time of standing still that we call Solstice. For some time now, I have felt the call of the Goddess, felt the absence of her feminine energy presence in this sore world . I know its return is imperative to the healing of our Earth and ways of living. We seek fr...
Vulnerability versus the Outdated Evolutionary Behavior of Our Need for Safety
When I think of power-filled feminine energy, both in women and in men, I believe it must include vulnerability. Few of us like to be vulnerable as it is almost sure to open us to hurt of some kind yet.....Vulnerability take a kind of courage that is more powerful than becoming hermits or always choosing the Safe Path. Fear has to be the biggest stumbling block for all of us who ... Continue reading ...

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 businessofbecoming 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...
There is a delicate balance between aggression, defending the Light, yourself and others AND using darkness as a means and method of doing that. This piece of art shows the two opposite sides of that spectrum.
In our culture, we often equate strength and power with an exhibition of our power OVER another. The other swing of that pendulum is allowing others to infringe on our own rights and hurt things with little or procrastinated responses. I don't claim to have any answers to this connundr...

Labyrinths
Labyrinth Shadow Play
I am much in the middle of this whirlwind-shifting reality of the moment. Mine flies in both past and future, bringing their energy to the present time. Child Spirit's realities merge with present self within my knowing and I'm focused on many things at once, finding that labyrinths seem a catalyst for bringing them all together.
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.
