Tea with the Muse

Painting in Process - Animystica - Cura Archetype

Good Morning Muses!

I woke up smelling the change in the air and the seeing the light shifting towards this coming Equinox, officially on the 22nd at 5:43 am pst. For those in the Northern Hemisphere we turn towards Autumn. For those in the Southern Hemisphere we turn towards Spring. On September 18 we have a partial Lunar Eclipse visible from Mexico, Canada and the United States. The moon is 97percent full as of this moment and will be full in one day and 11 hours and 38 minutes. There are things we can count on, at least for now. We can count on the moons relationship to the sun….let us honor that relationship.

I would love to be someone in your life you can count on to bring you insight and inspiration…I would love for our community at MUSEA and the Cura Council (our ceremonial branch) to provide a place of continuity and compassion. I would love for Intentional Creativity to provide a consistent go-to practice for you to be nourished by. Our community is going to be here for you, this is our sacred assignment. I would be ever so grateful to invite you to join us for a ceremony we have coming up is September 21 at 10am pst. Yes it’s another Substack and yes there are scholarship free levels available. Here are the details.

The Substacks (Tea with the Muse, The Cura Council, and Gold Mind) we offer provide more immediate messaging in real time. Like today’s poem just landed this morning so it is freshy-fresh.I also have a complimentary class coming up on Friday, Attunement Manifestation.

Thresholds

for Equinox 

There are these 

strange quiet cycles

where one life is completing

and the new one 

is just beginning

There, in the in-between

Then it is time to nap under

the giant oak 

with the first yellow leaves

of this season

and listen from insideThere are these

loud chaotic patterns

where who you were

isn't matching who you are becoming

and there is just so much noise

to stay the same 

But you can'tThere in the spaces between spaces

Then it is time for you to sit in ceremony

listening to the wild geese moving

and the last of the pink cosmos

blooming and blowing

in a fresh wind from the South

There are these 

dances that can only take place

at a crossroads

Dances for change that are 

rhythmic and restless 

Moving at the center of

the many directions and decisions

Some that you think you want and 

some you do notYou, 

you have outgrown your old life

Yet the path has yet to appear

clearly Then it is time 

to slow way down, 

to lay down right there

in the discomfort of the crossroads

Where you have always just

danced for your life, for survival

to keep going no matter what

Just Slow Down

The changing of the light

will point you in the right direction

when the time is readyIt is not your concern

how long this cycle will last

Many moons and eclipses

have already come and gone

After a time you will pick up

not where you left off 

but somewhere new

Will you trust this?

Just as you trust the green

hills to turn gold and

then to green again? This is what we do,

we Earth, we change

and we keep changing

crossing the thresholds

at each point of this

sacred wheel turning

Turning turning turning

towards center

turning towards you

--Thinking of you as I am about to have morning cafe with kitties,

Good morning ☀️

I know how hard it is to make change. We all do. Make a change today ~ yes today! This will be worth it!

The goal is to arrive at action steps that are served from your subconscious.

Overview

* Choose one thing to change

* Activate imagination and create sacred space

* Connect with stars and sun and the mountains where you live

* Create a field condition for change

* Make a cognitive leap from the imaginal to the real honoring Neuroplasticity

* Illustrate the change/s

* Receive insight about your very next steps to take in this 24 hours

Plus ranch updates! A new feature I’m trying out to let you know what’s happening here. The photo is the sunrise at the Ranch @ Musea.

Intentional Creativity Process for making a change today through receiving heightened insights that result in action.

* Change: The first piece of paper is for the thing you want to change that you were shown or created - just a few strokes to indicate and honor.

* Changed: The second piece of paper is the change already happening and how that would look and feel

* Action: The third pierce of paper is for the prayer and action steps that are revealed to take.

Greetings everyone! In order to achieve attunement when you are creating your world with your word to yourself, there needs to be reciprocity. There is an often missed piece about the energy exchange of gathering and giving. For manifestation to be attuned and good for you and for all - the energy of giving and receiving in a sacred exchange is actually essential or there is mis-alignment. How do we condition our bodies to create in the fullness of our being-ness?To get into the optimal condition, we need to work with a collaborative idea - Nervous System Reciprocity

* In today’s episode, I’m going to relate giving and receiving to the nervous system function

* The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system aren’t a division but a collaboration

* You can consciously choose a different trauma response if you knew there was one available, there is

* Invitation to understand how these systems are influencing your capacity to create what you wantI hope you find it useful, I am no expert but am stretching to understand how to make things come to life in my life and support you in yours.Warmly,

Shiloh Sophia

my prayer… “little bit of grief move though me now”

* Ideas for navigating grief that may be different than what you’ve tried before

* Why I think it’s time for a new metaphor

* Alchemy and titration and teaspoons of water

* Heading to this canvas for Fire and Water 💦

* My relationship with traffic at the ranch and overcoming the shame

“Grief, I've learned, is really just love. It's all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go” Jamie Anderson

And in our case, that grief goes onto the canvas…

“The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell youDon't go back to sleep!You must ask for what you really want.Don't go back to sleep!People are going back and forthacross the doorsill where the two worlds touch,The door is round and openDon't go back to sleep!”

―Rumi

Dear Ones,

Good Morning on September 1! This is a message for the women who have gathered for Abracadabra, our yearlong course. Yet as I made it for them (you) this morning, I wondered if there was something in here for you too, here at Tea with the Muse. So I am sharing it with you even though that is a bit of a rogue move, I am here to be a disruptor and a weaver, both! If you haven’t join us yet, you are still welcome to join us (with $1000 savings through midnight).

Overview

* Exchanging peaches for songs and beads

* This isn’t a class, it is an exchange of energy

* We are not replacing other voices for mine, we are seeking yours

* Speaking words of power is what called us together into this portal

* Acknowledging that we called each other changes how it feels

* I won’t be at your dinner table but I am at the cafe with you, right now

* Our amazing guides have gathered

* Let us prepare our spaces and our schedules for a yearlong experience in community.

Whatever you are navigating, whatever you are feeling blessed by, I send a message of love to you this day. Blessings on your day,

Curate Shiloh Sophia

Painting in process for Animystica - my exotic inner wildnerness re-wilding and re-oning with the universe

This is a poetry reading from my book Tea with the Midnight Muse 💕 it’s for you today. Pull up a chair or take a walk and join me as we pray for the artists everywhere to continue the good work of their hands, hearts and minds. This the multi-faced Sacred Feminine.

Are you a creative, a poet, a sculptor, a dancer, a chef? Take a 👂 listen.

This is a recent painting, called Mystical Mother 💕

Good morning everyone! I’m thinking of you today and wanting to pass on one gorgeous nugget today about how manifestation works. AND set you free from thinking you created all of your harm. I have created a lot in my life, and also worked to uncreate things that no longer serve. Sharing this one teaching with you helps engage change. It’s like unlocking a riddle in our awareness. AND setting yourself free from the shame and blame game. I will also share my observations about how the deck is stacked against us. And the power we have to do something about it!

Here are a few ways to more fully engage with the teachings.

Complimentary class Manifestation Re-Imagined on Friday, August 30 Yearlong Course in the Art of Flow and Attunement Manifestation

Overview - In this episode

* The power you have to respond to the conditions of your life, it might not be what you think :)

* Hear how I believe the decks are stacked against us and so therefore why it can be challenging to create what you envision

* Learn one powerful manifestation tool that you can begin using immediately, hint, it goes both ways

* Become more conscious about the reality sold to us and how it has impacted our inner narrator - such that we are not operating in a clear field of potential

* Questioning, if you really really agreed to the things you are experiencing this lifetime, did your Soul REALLY agree?

* Invitation to a complimentary class on Friday

* A Call to join me for my only yearlong course likely until 2026! There are 1000 scholarships towards tuition, making the price almost 50% savings, and if you need more, more is available when you apply.

Heading for a swim, then a daylong painting class! Cherishing the great parts of my life even as I am also challenged by what I am experiencing here on earth. Still I choose power with. AND choose to teach, I love sharing time with you so very much. I think the place I am the richest woman I can be, is in the good company of all of you.

Love is flowing.

If you are ready to dive in, and you want to commit to a year with me, then let’s do that, come on over. Almost 50% scholarship savings, and you apply if you need more support than that. Payment plans are available.

This is the part where I offer some of the most juicy nuggets as gifts, as I can’t NOT share. I have been sharing complimentary education since 2004. I won’t stop, can’t stop. I know many would love to join the longer experience, and I will continue to offer all along the way. For now - join us for Friday, August 30

P.S. I also want to offer a shout out to Anita D. for her support in sharing this post and process. I am grateful for you.

Confronting unconscious beliefs that cause shame

Inquiries into cause and effect

Challenging our projections on the Divine

Everything CAN become a teaching bit that doesn’t mean God or life created it to teach you a lesson.

Invitation to the middle ground of co-creation

Seeking collaborative power

The field condition
