                            Longing

Longing for or missing something, someone, a place, an experience or whatever it is in our lives
at a particular time, can be seen as a positive force that motivates us to get into motion and move
in a direction of where we hope to find it. Or something similar to this source that we long for. On the way, we might meet other people, places or experiences that bring us into a new playing field that has
us grow and learn things about ourselves that we never anticipated. Longing got us up on our feet.
That's a good thing! When we can name what we long for, it will help to get not only ourselves in motion but also forces beyond us can hear us better, and therefore synchronicity has a better chance to meet us on the way to help. Isn't that part of manifestation?

                                 Power of Joy

Joy is powerful and emanating. If we did not have children in our midst, joy would not come as easy because they are the best carriers of an abundant joy that comes from living fully in the body, in emotions, in the sensual experience of being human. The power of joy easily transfers itself onto us through the uplifting beauty of nature, art, of creation and the wonders of this Earth! Joy can be fleeting or also a basic attitude towards life. Someone who seeks joy and finds it in the most impossible places will always attract more of it. It is an energetic power. Dive deeper with me to places I go in this episode that took me by surprise. The power of joy is a rich theme.

      ~ following the sane, wild & creative in us  ~
              Gateway to Creative Flow

This episode dives into the beautiful gifts of creativity, whatever that is for each one of us. I believe that creativity is innate to us as human beings, since all about Divine Creation is a constant act of the Creative and we are part within it, therefore we are co-creators.There is also equally the force of destruction; and chaos and order play an important role in it. But I want to be encouraging to my fellow earth travelers who listen to my episodes. No matter what fascinates you or has been a long companion as your creative expression, or several skills that you are exploring and refining, it is a wonderful characteristic of human kind , that we are able to communicate with the Divine Creative Force through acts of co-creation. It is like a beloved that gives us challenges and bliss, inner struggles and ever new revelations. We are co-creators, never forget that. It is a gift to us that offers us to shape and mold, sketch and chisel, refine and deepen who we are.

                          Quejío - Deep Cry II


“A deep and often mournful cry or lament, known in Spanish Flamenco singing as Quejío,  transcends words to express profound, soulful emotion.”
 I am looking for people in the Seattle area ,who want to contribute creative expressions of the heartbreak, the deep cry we feel in these times! Story, song, dance, poem, sculpture, painting, foto, musical compositions....  Any art form is welcome! You do not have to be a Flamenco or artist, to contribute. 
To refine and make each performance piece more powerful, we will have an experienced director work with us.
Quejío ~ as a project, would aim to collaborate with and support local community actions and events through the creative arts and a full event in the Seattle area in fall.

                     PachaMama

We all know the name of the great entity and power, called Mother Earth, called Gaia. Here I read directly to you from the words of the Shaman Alberto Villoldo, who has been trained and worked with Peruvian Shamans for decades. He created a booklet and an Oracle card deck with his wife Marcela Lobos, Colette Baron-Reid and Jena della Grottaglia. A very meaningful Wisdom teaching deck from the perspective of the cosmology of Peruvian Shamans. The idea that we as humans are held, loved and evolving within the Great Mother is essential to remember, celebrate and contemplate, if we want to align ourselves with a bigger truth that we are part of.

~following the sane, wild and creative in us~
                                the Oracle


Oracle and Tarot cards have been around for centuries all over the world. It is also a Shamanic tool and teaching. Many ancient cultures have created tools and ways to work with the great questions that humans ask themselves, and yet are faced with the mystery that life and creation will always present to us. Tarot and Oracle cards initiate a fascinating conversation we can have with our Higher Self, Collective Unconscious, or whatever you want to call it. Some cultures have always worked with the dream world, which flows from the same infinite Imaginal Realm.
