Intuitive Work: “Turkish Coffee Grain” - reading "Whirling Wisdom Oracle”- reading "The veils between the worlds are thin before winter and it's time to say 'hi' to the ancestors with Day of the Dead, Halloween, and Spirit pours through more than usual with which we can choose to energize our projects annually creating a happy happy new year." ~ Krys Przybylski, joyious samhain, to the all that is we-I What beautiful and festive days we had, I hope the Spirit celebrations were filled with the "many face", us- I....Isn't it so wonderful to walk upon today...filled with colour, oh so much colour everywhere, and our Wind is so marvelous in his spin. Storyteller of our ancient selves. When he is in the air it seems like "everything" is answering to his prayers of rising and falling. As magic whirling, this Earth awakens the whispers of our soul....so much beauty and music....like quiet Love singing our mystic song woven into the thin hours of today....We may choose to be "busy" and go on "buzzing" like this day by day, or we may simply surrender and rise above, to the grace of this moment....unfolding itself from itself, our ancient voice waiting to be heard, to be seen, is our story and an enchanted being ... As we walk we see the day light fading away slowly and slowly, deepening the hours....Let us find our "inner sun" so we may gather around its heat and share the flames of our inner fires....it is a good time to welcome the "dream", reflect and stretch, thank the "old" and make room for the "new". Whatever it may mean to you I would love to share through your creativity, you may choose to write, paint, talk silence, enjoy family... and me, I will come to meet with you as we dance... Towards the end of this month there is an "open house" and an Art show of my own....We have been blessed by our light/dark in so many ways, that we are....Seing these off my hand, I feel so happy for the giveaway ! Now I like to invite "Bird Medicine" and call upon this flight,however it may come on our canvas white.... Artwork that inspire vision communicate prayer and sand healing!
Bird Medicine, 48"x 60", acrylic on canvas, 2003 In my vision I see the Eyes that look everywhere, which voice I hold in the centre... from this place of within there is an opening of a Wing! and as I go deep the weaving begins... sounds of far come to this "ground", we are... unite "birds" of flight.... This image reveals an opening passage held by our two Eagles which are woven within the medicine colours (black, white, yellow and red). The Eagle as a bird of prey has been called "closest to the "creator". He who builds its nest up high & sours the far distances in the Sky. The Owl we hear with a song that has been symbolized as "seer in the night" or deceiver, even death. This magnificent bird that can spin its head "around" perhaps carry vision beyond our ordinary Eye....Let us invite this vision so we may go deep into the side of Spirit, to see, hear, heal that which has a name ....so we may soar the night into the fading light...and (my 6 year old son told me this vision last night) at the end of that road there is a bridge to cross, where "three light houses" stand, and there we find some glowing jewels.. This is how we unite these two birds the Eagle and the Owl. From the depth of an Owl there comes the vision of the Eagle( rebirth)...soaring the highest plains in the blue Sky of our Eyes. Here these two wings unite to hold a "web" with an opening that has a Medicine to revive.... So today by day, perhaps in the choices we make, we would like to invite these "medicine colours" and see our "birds" filled with life,day and night....To meditate upon the flow of this opening will encourage an initiation and exploration of the many sides, corners and rooms of Spirit. You may look at the many personalities you carry, patterns of doings, likes and dislikes, and it is all to be held sacredly, understood and fully integrated ( I like to say in prayer!) as a cosmic manifestation... so, let as unite the times passing by...future and past, the Key you hold may it be in our grasp!! HO! Art show~ open house This is a welcoming invitation for my upcoming Art event... since is in my space you will have the opportunity to explore throughout the artworks of the various times in my journeys ...and be delighted by my newest creations!

He was the light of consciousness. His body was soul, his pure wisdom apparent in his beautiful face …. Rumi cost: $ 55.00 per hour This session involves expressive movement and painting to engage and liberate the body’s wisdom. We explore the colours of deep breath meditation, imaging, sounding, and visualization. Intuitively we reach inner depths of knowing and find the seeds of productivity that are kept within us. As we immerse and move through the rhythms of this journey in a safe and patient way, we recognize our inner vibrational patterns. We then have the opportunity to weave from our depths a “web” of greater understanding and community. All is reflected on the unique canvass, we flow! Art Bliss~ art class One hour of instructional painting and drawing in any media or mix media you choose for your masterpiece...abstract, figurative, portraiture, landscape you named and created!! coast: $ 25 per hour, including set up Soul Portrait Hi you! Have you ever wished to have your beautiful portrait get done…yes! …then this is for you, and do not expect to be some boring pretty face, hung on a wall to be admired. Instead I will closely look into!…woven fibers of Life Force, manifesting itself beyond the “ordinary” eyes; in space as vision and insight…channeled through your conscious and unconscious wisdom …to appear as it comes…take this, for it is your unfolding beauty. The Soul Portrait that I weave is unique as yourself. All this initiated in your space, could be rewarding in all the ways that you could think of.

Sacred Face ~ Mask Making HO!…to the Sisterhood of the Shields for the wisdom, in Spirit; to Lynn Andrews and her give away…HO! to the many teachers that have brought light upon my path and the many “hands” received from above…I remember the creation of my own “Mask of Power” this beautiful Vision of all times…just to find it’s face rising from the ashes…as the “firebird” keeper of the inner flame! I have carefully dreamed this journey for us, in honor for the Sacred path of Mask Making. I would like to offer you guidance, along the sacred line of the Medicine Wheel. Upon each direction there is a gift for you, creating along the way …you will hold Four Masks of many, that will represent the depths of your most inner places, awaken through meditation, symbolism and the wisdom that allies in all the sides that we turn for a direction…you will understand the energy patterns that hold these “faces” and how we find these in our day to day movement. In understanding these energies you will learn how to choreograph and transform; balance our feminine and masculine; and use these gifts for our healing and community. Towards the end of the journey we will unite the Four Masks into One Mask, as a centering place within, as Mask of Power and our most Sacred Face. We will honor and initiate the awakening of the Masks in a ceremony, we will give away and empower your Song! This work is very Sacred. It is often personal and sometimes difficult…I would like to make room for each of you and offer my time on a “one to one” basis, in presence. The workshop lasts 7 sessions, the hour could vary form 3 to 5 hours…and to your call I will set the day! $ 400.00 ~ the materials required for the mask building are inclusive….except your sacred objects that you will decorate your personal mask with…..HO!

It was introduced to me when I was 4 years old, and has been revealing its secrets up to this day. Connecting with this sacred grain and welcoming its rich aroma, followed by respectful and full minded exchange…we receive a “gift” from the magnificent “map“ that is imprinted upon the walls of the round cup. The grains are as an art sand painting that has been stirred by our inner Winds Storytelling in its Nature.
