Time to Dream Big!
On the heals of the New Moon Dec. 14th and Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius, aligning with our Galactic Center Dec. 17th, 2020, we are being called to DREAM BIG as great light is being offered to us. How do we get there? What is most important to truly move into the next level of healing, joy, and happiness once again? The guidance came this morning in meditation to DREAM BIG, to turn our focus on the heart dreams of our souls that are programmed into us before birth. This reading is about how do we get there?
WHO ARE WE as we ask this question? At the center of the reading Hindu Goddess Lakshmi, the Wheel of Fortune card, Crow Woman, the Sacred Law card, and the Crone of Fire, Transmutation tell me that we are abundantly supported from our spiritual selves to our earthly selves, that we are aligned with our soul's destiny through Universal Law and that we are moving out of the fire of transmutation as we enter our new phase. Time to claim these gifts to truly dream big, and manifest a new reality.
THE BIG PICTURE - In the big picture Morgan le Fay, the Sorceress (who was in our reading yesterday), again reminds us were are here to Source ourselves to the Divine, so we may magically create our desires. The 5 of Earth, manipulation, is up to heal all the ways we are entangled with limiting patterns of pain in the earth realm. To be free we must cut these cords that bind us. And the 4 of Wind, Patience, reflect that we are on the precipice of great change and expansion as the heavens reign blessings upon us. Be patient, be present, our greater dreams are coming to earth in perfect timing.
OUR CHALLENGES AND LESSONS ALONG THE WAY - The 2 of Wind, Balance, the 3 of Fire, De-Light, and Ancient Mother Goddess Aditi, The Great Void, sit in our area of challenges and lessons. They tell us we need to balance our thoughts, internally and externally, to be in balance in how we create. Reflect upon your true beliefs and thoughts. Are they aligned with your higher good and big dreams, or do you doubt and fear what is possible. Take time to meditate and harmonize your inner world, your spiritual self, with your expression. The De-Light card tells me that we'll have lessons and challenges in truly being in our joy and delight as we navigate the changes. We must do our best to focus on being in the light as we work on disentangling from our old patterns that limit us. And Aditi says DREAM BIG, even if you may not know how at times. Work through limitations so you may receive what you truly desire.
WHAT ACTION DO WE TAKE NOW? - The 9 of Earth, Community sits next to Mama Gaia, the World card, and the Ace of Seas, Ecstatic-Sea to guide us to the action needed to manifest our true hopes and desires. Both the Community card and Gaia remind us of our immense connectivity, even in times of of social distancing! We are intrinsically connected and need to call upon this in bringing our dreams to Earth. Gather in community, even if it is virtual. Be in conscious, intentional community, even if you must rely on technology to do so. Honor the blessings of the Earth, and know that you are supported as you connect and realize we are all Kin! Then move into emotional ecstasy through your gratitude and joy of connectivity. The Ace of Seas tells me that your heart will be lifted up as you take this perspective in creating your dreams, and that you will have great support by your angels, and all your ground crew in your earthly life.
OUTCOME AS WE ACT ACCORDING TO OUR GUIDANCE - If you will heed the guidance and take action on dreaming big, claiming your abundance and connectivity, you will indeed move into a new cycle with greater levity and joy, manifesting a more sacred life, that weaves the truth of your greater spiritual self into a life of greater harmony and joy.

This 15-card Mythical Goddess Tarot spread shines light on what we need to know to consciously work with the new moon eclipse energies of Dec. 14, 2020 to create greater joy in our lives.
The Seas suit (the emotional suit) tells us it is time to claim our joy, passion and pleasure as we move forward. What brings you into your heart spaces and opens it wide into joy? Time to return to the place of the heart and to reclaim its power. Athena the Chariot card says we have all we need to get what we want, with Lilith, the Power card, helping us restore our power and belonging to move forward. Three goddesses,(major arcana), Morgan le Fey, (the Sorceress), Mary Magdalene (Initiation) and Sophia (Wise Woman) reflect incredible Divine guidance in meeting our challenges, so we may truly awaken to our Divine power and wisdom for creating our world.
Our action is to focus our minds on what we truly desire (Maiden of Wind, Clarity), purify our Spirits and wisely rise above the old (Crone of Fire, Transmutation), and transform the situation with our creativity (Brigid, Alchemy). IF we do so, we will fully realize great abundance as promised by the Wheel of Fortune (Lakshmi) in the outcome. We may have to be patient for some things to come into our reality (4 of Wind, Patience), but don't worry, as things are fully formed and about to give birth. The next 28 day cycle offers great creativity born of an open mind and illuminated spirit. Lean in, focus on your heart's desire, and go for it! Dream BIG!
Dec 4, 2020 Mythical Goddess Tarot 1-Card Pull, the Hindu Goddess Aditi, and the Great Void, with Katherine Skaggs. Healing and Hope through curiosity and wonderment. It is time to focus upon and wonder "How Good Can it Get?"
What do we need to find greater hope in our lives right now?
Fear is rampant in our world, with humanity at odds with one another, with the fear of a pandemic, various religious and political factions and points of view.
What guidance can the goddesses give to assist us in healing and shifting to a higher frequency and greater experience of love, harmony, and joy?
Aditi, the Hindu Goddess representing the Infinite, the Great Cosmic Void, comes to us today to help us find our way into a more harmonious and beautiful reality. This great celestial Mother Goddess is here to remind you to focus your heart and mind on your curiosity on how good life can get. She is the formless mind substance, the Akasha, and the most fertile ground for planting seeds of hope, of healing, and of great harmony for self and for all of humanity.
It is time to go into the childlike wonderment that lives inside our very beings, of our inner child, and the place of purity that resides beyond the fear. What is it like to return to the place of possibility, potential, and true harmony?
If you are focused on the fear and have lost your pure, innocent child-like nature, it is time for a clearing, a smoke bath, some sage, prayer, and reflection upon the good, the Divine, and the beauty of this world, and your very being.
Refocus your mind, your heart, and all of your thoughts to wonderment and curiosity in How good can it get? You will stir the potent and fertile energies of the Great Cosmic Void, and the Quantum Field… beckoning the perfect answer from the Universe. Know that whatever you ask must be answered. So pay attention to what you ask and where your focus is.
If you will lean more and more into the possible, you will be supported in living it every day.
The Mythical Goddess Tarot gives us insight and guidance on navigating the pandemic of coronavirus. Katherine Skaggs and the Mythical Goddess Tarot remind us of the soul's journey, and how that guides us to moving through times of chaos in the world, that is birthing us into a new reality, an opportunity to come to greater harmony individually and collectively.
The Mythical Goddess Tarot card Ace of Seas, Ecstasy reminds us that even amidst fear and chaos, we are joyful, heart-centered beings, and that now is a time to reconnect deeply to our essence. It is time to return home to the beauty of our hearts through meditation, reflection and the power of cultivating our emotional body focused through love. The Crone of Fire, Transformation, reflects that we are the ones who have the strength and capacity to move through the fires of complete destruction of old structures and ways of being, to come through transformed and illuminated. We are being purified and rising to new levels as we move through this. The 6 of Earth reflects a Pot of Gold and the energy of Success. This card tells us that even amidst incredible challenges and change, that we are abundant, that we have all the resources needed to move through the fear and challenges, and this is our foundation to draw upon.
WARNING - The 9 of Wind - Criticism shows up first. The energy of harsh, critical mind is up for healing. Pay attention to your beliefs, your words and thoughts that cut, that criticize and that break or separate as you look into the world of chaos and change. Be MINDFUL. Be constructive with your words, your outlook and use your mind and mental capacity to find solutions. Yemaya, the Oracle, reminds us that now is a time of returning inward to our subconscious, intuitive, lunar nature. It is time to use our quiet time for meditation, reflection and inner knowing. This is where peace resides. The Child of Earth - Design reminds us that everything is in order, that we have the blueprint for our soul's evolution and the evolution of humanity, within us. Be in childlike wonderment about our own growth, and know that all is evolving us in growth and wisdom.
The 4 of Earth Boundaries - Clean up our act! Take our space energetically, psychically, emotionally and physically. Be clear what is yours and what is others. This is the time to pay attention in how to take care of yourself on ALL levels, and to respect and learn this. The Goddess Aditi reminds us that we are in a time of great potential, and opportunity. She is the Great Void, which is often great chaos, as it is the pure energy of Creation. The challenge now is to focus your mind, your emotions and your energy into what you desire to CREATE. Be clear, and plant only the seeds that grow your life as you want. Your focus creates! The Ace of Fire - Illumination is here to remind us that we are supported in our death and rebirth process, that we are here to release our anger, our fear, and our rage, so that we may lose our lower ego minds and become free. The opportunity is to clear away old patterns of fear through this experience. She offers sudden and powerful illumination in the process.
7 of Seas - Denial - It is time to face the places we have buried our emotions and become stagnant in our capacity to love and to move forward emotionally. Find ways to stop denying yourself, and open to healing your heart now. The Maiden of Wind shows us the importance of our mental focus. We must keep our eye on the target of what we desire, if we want to hit the mark in the change. The 10 of Seas - Purity supports the healing of the heart that is required, by expressing your own Pure soul's nature. Connect to compassion, kindness, generosity and unconditional love. It is time to clean up our act, on every level in how we relate to self and other.
WE are in a full on reset into our Divinity! Three goddesses are in the Outcome -- This is a very significant sign. IF we indeed pay attention, go within, make change, we have a new reality birthing, that brings harmony and awakening!
Mother Gaia, the World card, says despite the dismal and challenging experience of the pandemic, we are coming to a new life , to greater connection as a species, and with our planet and all its CREATION, to ALL being KIN, and to greater abundance as a result of this change. We are healing as a species, despite the appearances of things, and that blesses and heals the entire planet and all our relations. The High Priestess card, Egyptian Goddess Isis of birth, death and fertility is here to usher us into the new life, into our awakening and sacred expression. This great goddess is here to show us how to live and navigate life as we center in our intuitive knowing, rather than our linear, earthly eyes. She is a reflection of the wisdom that is birthed within us as we go deeper into greater union with our spiritual beings. The Hindu Goddess Shakti who animates the life force and creative energy of the Universe, and is the Ecstatic Union card, reflects that this experience brings us to greater Union of our soul self with our human expression, that we are moving into a greater, more enlightened way of being individually and as a species. The kundalini fire is purifying us that we may be awake, aware and in our true light.
Goddess Bless you! Love is the ONLY answer. Give fear to the fire. Pray. Meditate. Practice kindness and Generosity. Know that you are being expanded through a very expansive time. Do all you can to ground yourself, to honor the power of change, of death and rebirth, and know that you are not alone. Your guides, angels and spirit helpers are all around you. Take stock of your gifts, and reflect on how you can give from your own abundant nature. Dream anew. Focus your imaginations onto how many blessings are coming your way. Do your best, and you will be supported.
With love to you, Katherine Skaggs
By Katherine Skaggs,
Visionary Artist of the Mythical Goddess Tarot
For thousands of years, in ancient temples and every day homes, sacred art has been used to shift one’s focus upwards to the Divine, to bring healing, and to create sacred space. Priests, priestesses, shamans, medicine men and women all have invoked healing through the assistance of sacred art objects, images, written text and statuary. They understood how to use sacred imagery and word to create portals to the Divine, accessing the magic and healing vibrations.
Great artists through the past 100s of years were not only trained as artists, but were also trained in mystery schools, where they understood sacred geometry, and the power of art to open energy portals, as well as to convey high frequency light to the masses. Michelangelo and Leonardo Divinci were such mystic artists.
These artist mystic traditions continue in our current day, where the artists are the messengers to awaken the soul. If you have ever found some visionary, spiritual art calling you, you must know it spoke deeply to your being, and not just your eyes.
I has such an experience when I saw the art of Alex Grey, Susan Sedon Boulet and Meinrad Craighead in the early 90s. I owned a metaphysical store, had been training in a mystery school for 4 years, and had also been an artist since I could pick up a pencil. When I chose their art books and calendars to sell in my store, I became very much aware that something was calling me. I felt deeply that perhaps I too was supposed to do something visionary or spiritual with my art. Over the following 10 years, it became clear to me what that union was. It ultimately directed my path in life as a mystic, visionary artist myself, finding my way as channel of the Divine, and messenger to the soul through my art.
Along the way I would say I learned many symbol systems and the power of sacred imagery, yet that is not completely true. It is more like I “remembered” how to bring in sacred imagery, not through my eyes, but through my soul, as a channel. The journey first was to heal my own soul self. Getting still and asking for guidance married with the act of making art was the beginning of the Divine coming through me in more mystical and expansive ways. Each experience of contact with a Divine Being, such as Mother Mary, or White Eagle, or Serapis Bey, or another angel or guide who revealed themselves, was an experience of opening a portal to high frequency light waves that heal, that awaken and that transcend a 2-D piece of art. Once created in the original art, it continues to open sacred spaces, transmitting light codes of love and guidance, even in small reproductions such as an altar card or small print.
When art is created at a soul level, with intention, symbol and meaning, it has the capacity to open doorways to the Divine. It brings vibrational healing through its holographic and physical presence. It calls the soul to recall more of their Divinity through an activation of the akasha energy field, and ultimately into the personality. It breaks the mind and the heart open to love and awareness.
We all can’t have great pieces of art in our homes or on our altars. Yet today, we have the magic of reproduction, offering the opportunity of owning beautiful artwork in more affordable versions that we can hang in our homes and place into our sacred spaces.
What determines Sacred Art?
Not all art falls into the category of visionary sacred art. Is the art created in love? Is it high vibrational? Does it convey messages of the divine without religious constraints, rules and judgements? Is it beautiful? Does it make you smile, feel more love, or curiosity of the invisible realm of Spirit?
I have found that the artists engaged in conveying Divine messages through their art, bring healing to others. An astrologer 30 years ago told me it would be the artisans in the New Age who would be the true Healers. For these would be the conduits dancing with the Divine, bringing expression of it's high frequency energies to Earth via inspired visual art, movies, dance, song, music, etc.
Sacred Art and Altar Spaces
Creating beauty in your home and sanctuary spaces brings peace, calm, vision, hope and healing. The color, pattern, geometries, symbols, Divine Beings and vibration create a focused energy, both physically and spiritually. The feel good beauty of sacred art immediately begins to shift any space. When the high vibrations come into your space, your attention is moved to a higher awareness in your conscious mind, as well as on a subconscious or soul level.
Your aura, or quantum field begins to vibrate upwards, as well as the space where the altar sits. Through prayer and meditation at your altar with your sacred imagery and objects, you begin deepening your spiritual energies and awarenesses. This is the journey of cultivating greater peace, beauty and grace, where you are less and less apt to fall into the lower energies of judgment and separation.
These beautiful images are spiritual tools that work, even when you aren’t consciously doing anything. They hold space for you, whether you can or can’t.
The Call to Share Sacred Art as Altar Cards
Many years ago, when I began to channel Divine Beings through my art (Mother Mary, Buddha, Jesus, Archangel Michael and other angels to name a few), I became aware that I needed to share the images on a larger scale, and not just sell one painting at a time. The guidance was most strong when I was awakened one night by Mother Mary, and I had to get up to paint her. This particular experience was one of receiving a transmission of unconditional love that came into the art. At this time it was clear the importance of sharing the imagery as a way to bring light to awaken others heart and souls through compassion and love.
Soon after the images were made into small 5x7” cards, with a message on the back, to inspire and to uplift. (See all altar cards here.)
Create Altar Spaces for Inspiration and Healing
When in need of making one’s life for sacred, for healing and for being lifted up, it is a great idea of set aside a small space in your home for an altar. Altars are physical places where you focus your attention to prayer, meditation, worship, and calling forth your Divine Guides and Helpers. The space doesn’t have to be big, yet it might be.
Personal altars are a great way to stay connected to the sacredness of all life, especially yours! They become containers that hold your prayers, intentions and desires in the most sacred ways. They help ground the higher energies of the Divine into the physical world.
Creating and working with an altar is as essential to a mystic, shaman or priestess, as brushing one’s teeth is to good oral health.
To make your own personal altar, it is a great idea to keep out of the attention of others. Choose a private space where you can put down an altar cloth, or something beautiful as the base to hold your items and prayers. A candle is often added to represent the light, fire and illumination. If you would like to include all the elemental energies, place some item representing the Earth, Water and Air on the altar. Some dirt from a sacred or special place, water you have blessed or from a sacred well, and a feather or something clearly representing the air. Add fresh flowers to bring in beauty, and to open a portal to the Divine. (Angels and Ascended Masters LOVE the color, beauty and fragrance of flowers!)
Add Divine Art Altar Cards to focus bringing in the guidance of any specific guides, angels, or ascended masters you would love to invoke through your altar. With time, you will become more and more clear when they are present, and that you have clear communication anytime you desire it or need it. The more you work with their imagery and essence, the more sensitive you are to their vibration energy and how it reaches you.
Other Places for Altar Cards
Altar cards are also great for your desk at work, to carry in your car or in your purse, hung near your bed, on on your bathroom mirror. They create space wherever they are! If you need a reminder of the Divine and want inspiration, incorporate this sacred imagery where you want to bring their energy and inspiration.
Choose Your Altar Cards and Sacred Imagery
There are many images of Sacred Ones you may incorporate, who will absolutely visit you as you begin to say “hello” by honoring them through your focused attention, gratitude and physical presence through sacred art.
To connect, what is your need for guidance, your hope or your intention?
Hold your intention, prayer, need or desire strong in your heart and mind when asking who to connect to. Cultivate reflection and stillness. Ask for your spirit helpers to come to you in any way you can recognize their energy.
Then open to the imagery you find at a local metaphysical store card or calendar section, or art books, or online sacred art. Ask for the image and the presence of the Divine Helper to be revealed. Synchronicity will unfold and you will be directed to the energy of your helper. It may come in song, art, written word, statuary, movie references, etc. Your Divine Helper may well be a Marvel character, or an angel, ascended master, goddess or an animal. Don’t be surprised!
Notice who are you drawn to by image. If you don’t have a specific idea or knowledge of who you would like to put on your altar, peruse the images to see who attracts you. Move beyond your intellect to your intuitive senses. The image will call you. The message will follow.
Here are a few of the Divine Helpers you might want to check out: Archangel Michael for protection and guidance; Mother Mary for unconditional love; Kuan Yin for compassion; Lakshmi for abundance; Jesus for forgiveness, love and healing; Buddha for compassion and peace; White Eagle for awakening your DNA and connection to guidance from all the ascended masters, and so on and so forth. There are an infinite number of Ascended Masters, Goddesses and Illuminated Ones to work with. They may or may not be familiar. So trust who you are drawn to in the moment you choose.
(See all Katherine Skaggs altar cards here.)
How to Work with the Sacred Ones through work with the Altar Cards
Once you have chosen your altar cards, now what?
Enjoy their beauty!
Say “hello” and “thank you”. Be specific if you can, and name the gifts and powers of that being, honoring their mastery and benevolence. Thank the Divine Being for being present to you, and assisting you in whatever manner he or she is showing up for you. Ask them to lift you up, into their awakened vibrations, that you too might align with their blessings.
Sit with the Divine Being via your altar card and gaze softly upon it. Feel into its energy. As you quiet your mind, and still your body, you will connect deeply through the image.
Journal with the essence of the Divine One, reflecting, asking questions, feeling into the responses, opening your intuition and knowing.
Invoke through prayer and ritual. Sing praise of gratitude and blessings.
As you sit with the sacred imagery of your Divine Beings of Light, you will know what to do. Trust your intuition and heart spaces. You may find yourself crying tears of joy, or laughing out loud. These beings are alive and well and are excited to meet you in this way.

Let go, and you will have plenty of room for all your new life to manifest.
8 of Seas - DepletionWarning! As we move through the energies the next few weeks we need to take time to care for our emotional needs, and how that affects our physical lives.

The Power of the Divine Feminine is awakening and having a resurgence on Mother Earth. It is a time of restoring the power of our hearts, the power of compassion and cooperation, and the power of love beyond anything we have known for thousands of years.
For thousands of years we have demonized and disconnected from our Divine Mother, our Divine Feminine power that resides within each of us, whether we are male and female. We are now in a time where restoration is not only available, but is a must for reclaiming if we are find peace, balance, compassion and strength for transformation in a world that has become polarized and in many areas devoid of this sacred, loving, wise energy. We need our Divine Mother energy awakened within our consciousness to proceed forward in our wholeness and power if we want to be healthy in our bodies, our minds and our spirits.
This class is dedicated to creating a relationship with the Divine Mother that brings healing and restoration to you at all levels ... from your physical daily life, to your vast spiritual inner life. This is to heal any schism within your soul's journey where you have been disconnected from the powers of nurturing, intuition, timelessness, and unconditional love. This is a place to reset within sacred spaces, that allow your heart to awaken and illuminate your essence and sacred path.
We will use drum journey, altar work, sacred dance, prayer, ritual to heal and wake up. Within this sacred day's container, we'll find space to dream our lives anew, as we connect to the healing power of the Great Mother Goddess. We'll call the Goddesses to assist us, to illuminate our minds and hearts. We'll also draw upon the healing tools of each Goddess we call, her healing modalities, flower essences and aromatherapies to shift our energies and fill ourselves up with soothing, illuminating vibrations.
We will gather in sacred circle and ceremony, opening the circle and setting an altar in ritual and ceremony, to call the Goddess to assist us in our journey. We'll draw Mythical Goddess tarot cards to inquire who is here to support and assist... and then draw upon their wisdom to help us.
This section will focus on creating sacred space so we may dream, so we may create, so we may heal, so we may come to know the Divine Feminine within ourselves. With this space we will focus on creating healthy boundaries for keeping our container full of good chi to grow the seeds of our dreams and intentions. We'll call the goddess Aditi, and her wisdom of the Cosmic Womb for how to open to potential and possibility. We'll call the Pleiadian Star Goddess to assist us in bringing our destiny to form.
This will be a time of healing our sacred dreamer and golden child self. What does she desire? Where has she been afraid to dream? What wants and needs to reset.
Now is time to bring in the element of fire, and the goddesses White Buffalo Calf Woman, Lakshmi and Shakti to light your heart fire, to restore your passion, to expand your abundant nature, and to make your life sacred once again. This is a place of sacred community and support, to assist you in your growth process. You are not alone. It is time to enter sacred community for support in all your dreams. You get to be supported.
We will call upon the guidance and powers of White Buffalo Calf Woman to assist us in purification, so we may remember how to live our lives as a sacred ceremony. We'll call upon Lakshmi to assist us in accessing our abundance, divine gifts and bring them to earth. And we will call Shakti, to assist in awakening our inner beloved, so we may awaken to ourselves as fulfilled within and without.
This will be a time of healing our relationship to having support in our lives on all levels, so we may grow our dreams without so much struggle and effecting. This will assist us with our relationship to money, value and manifesting what we truly desire.
Now is time to harvest all the good from all your life experiences. This is a time to embrace all that is and has been. What have you gotten, what has nourished you, and what do you need to let go? With harvest comes endings, completions, and death. We'll call upon the goddesses Kali, Pele, Uzume and Mother Mary to help us let go of the ego mind struggle, so we may truly be present to the harvest as well as the deathing process.
When in right relationship to this aspect of the cycles of life, you are either in great freedom or great fear and attachment. We'll use ritual and ceremony, with drum journey to harvest and to release. We'll ask the wisdom of Kali to heal us into the sacred power of shamanic death, that we release our ego that stunts us. We'll call the power of Pele to burn away that which no longer serves, so we may expand in sacred self respect. We will call Uzume to help us move out of the grasp of illusion and desperation, so we may lighten up. We call upon Mother Mary to assist us in making sacred all that we love, so we may ascend into our heart spaces of unconditional love. We will take a new look at the power of sacred destruction, so we may have new life and greater light.
The North is a place of wisdom, rest, restoration and power. We have come full circle in our healing journey and now is the time to go within, to find our cave and reflect on what has been and dream what might be. It is time to receive through stillness and reflection. The power of observation and dreamtime are in the North.
Within the North we'll call upon the Divine Feminine Powers of Mama Gaia to restore and reset our biorhythms so we may be in balance as we walk this Earth life. We'll call forth Sophia to assist us in becoming wise from all our experiences. We'll invoke the healing powers of Isis to restore and rebirth ourselves as conscious dreamers.
As we come to the end of our time together we'll close our circle and seal our work into our lives and our very DNA, spiritually and physically... so we may live in the fullness of our soul's wholeness.
To join this day of Awakening the Divine Feminine will be to join in a day of restoration and healing; it will be a time of letting go of the old, worn out stories of disconnection and disempowerment to allow and awaken your true sense of Self, of fullness, deserving, and havingness.

The Power of the Divine Feminine is awakening and having a resurgence on Mother Earth. It is a time of restoring the power of our hearts, the power of compassion and cooperation, and the power of love beyond anything we have known for thousands of years.
Join Katherine Skaggs, visionary artist of the Mythical Goddess Tarot, shamanic practitioner and painter of souls for Awakening Your Divine Feminine. Come into a sacred circle to honor the Divine within yourself, and to embrace and awaken your Divine Feminine power.
For thousands of years we have demonized and disconnected from our Divine Mother, our Divine Feminine power that resides within each of us, whether we are male and female. We are now in a time where restoration is not only available, but is a must for reclaiming if we are find peace, balance, compassion and strength for transformation in a world that has become polarized and in many areas devoid of this sacred, loving, wise energy. We need our Divine Mother energy awakened within our consciousness to proceed forward in our wholeness and power if we want to be healthy in our bodies, our minds and our spirits.
Within this class we will open sacred space,where we will experientially learn about the Divine Feminine, the Mother Goddess, and how to activate it within our own selves for a more sacred experience of life. The morning session will bring us into sacred ceremony; teach us about the sacred, great cosmic womb container represented by the Sacred Feminine; shed light on the world of potential and possibility that lives within the womb/container spaces; assist you in expanding your havingness and pleasure for life; guide you in the importance of good boundaries to protect your dreams and manifest your life; illuminate sacred destruction as a vital part of creation; teach the role of the sacred feminine in balance with the sacred masculine; show you how to call in our allies and energies of the Divine Feminine and her many faces, and much more.
In the afternoon we will work with the 22 Goddess archetypes of the Mythical Goddess Tarot. Each Goddess brings her own story, face and energy of the Divine Feminine into form, and teaches us how to invoke this into our lives. To reclaim these parts of ourselves, we must learn Her-Story, as History has left out the depth and breadth of the Goddess and Divine Mother that has been reflected to us for many thousands of years prior to the current patriarchal model. This reclamation will activate your own healing and potentiation of great love, and expanded sense of self.
To join this day of Awakening the Divine Feminine will be to join in a day of restoration and healing; it will be a time of letting go of the old, worn out stories of disconnection and disempowerment to allow and awaken your true sense of Self, of fullness, deserving, and havingness.

The Ascension Goddess' journey into form and presence came after over several weeks in 2007. I was teaching a class on Intuitive Painting: A Journey through the Chakras. I had finished teaching the first class of seven, which works with the root or base chakra. We had left over red and black paint, so I encouraged two assistants of mine who stayed after class to grab the extra paint, some boards, and have at it with some expressive painting. Just let come through what wanted to express... Get your mind out of it and play, let the paint and Spirit tell you what to do.
When I got the red and black onto the board, I thought, "Hmmm, you are interesting. I wonder if I will keep you and who you will become." And that was it until two weeks later. I set the board aside with just the red and black paint and forgot about it for a while.
