Oh Life.

It's funny. I completely forgot I made this card at the last SoulCollage gathering. I was in the thick of the play and felt like an energizer bunny.



Ahh, my tiger. Guarding and protecting my sacral chakra. Reminding me to draw the line and remember my creativity.




My Reiki Lineage. Passing on the gift to the children from the ancestors. I hold the energy in my hands.
Dreaming. This one has never come up either. The wild horses running in the surf under the moon. Pigs flying, airplanes and the stuff dreams are made of. In my dreams...
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
I am the One who keeps going and going, bending and twisting. I am the One who learns to play and when to draw the line and be serious. I am the One who holds the powerful energy of the mountains in my hands. I use my dreams to fly over the land, creating the impossible and making it mine. I am the One with my eyes closed trusting that my dreams will someday come true. And it won't be when pigs fly!

One Card


Ahhh, I call this one "Symphony of Creation" It's how I've always felt about my garden-- tap, tap, tap....ok! Enter the daffodils, yes, yes, wave your cheery faces! Stage Left, quickly Cherry Blossoms! Twirl to Stage Right....fluff up the tulips as you go!!!
`
It's ever so appropriate that I picked this card today. I am in the midst of directing a play, right before Tech (aka HELL) Week. It's a great reminder of the beauty and majesty of color and creation. The woman in the lotus with her fingers in the mudra symbolizing her connection with the CREATOR.... Yes, yes, I get it.
`
I am the One who directs the symphony of creation knowing it is not I who created the splendor and beauty.
`
I am the One listening within to the direction of the true Creator.
`
I am the One calmly awaiting the arrival of each player, knowing that each have an important part of the whole.
`
I am the One who knows that I too, am part of the whole, no less, no more than the sum of all.
I am the One holding up my arms, to help others find their own beautiful spot.
`
I am the One closing my eyes and going within, keeping calm with meditation, marveling at the wonders of nature. Inwardly, I am at peace.
`
And so it is.

3 New Cards

Community Card: My Back Yard Friends... pretty obvious, these are the birds, animals and insects that visit me frequently. I love the St. Francis, patron of wildlife dude... although not being Catholic, I'm not sure if that's the right name. But I love that whole symbolism.


Council? Committee?: Cleansing Star.. this reminds me of a reading a student of mine gave me with MotherPeace cards. I carried the flower picture around for a year and a half til just the right pic came along.
Council. Definitely. But I have no idea what it's about. (she says while covering her ears and saying la la la...)


I love the colors and the images but why the poor naked maiden is being eaten by a large fish is beyond me. The image at the top is of a breast cancer survivor who decided to embrace her new body and enhance it by tattoo-ing
her chest. I can't imagine the freedom that gave her. And the courage it took.


Every time I think I couldn't possibly make another card, I sit with my friends at the SoulCollage gathering and the creativity just becomes a presence... and I can't help but give over to it.
Blessings!
