Wow. I was just reading a passage in Sandra Ingerman's book, "Awakening to the Spirit World". She wrote about how groups of people in harmony with earth & sky and gathered in ceremony...can make magic! I experienced it this past summer in the SouLodge and again at Squam. I believe we can feel it here, dear Pixie, with your releasing ceremony. Count me in Sisters!

What a beautiful offering! May it find its way to the one who needs its medicine most... I release to Mama Earth all my anxiety, over thinking & those pesky thoughts that creep into my head, telling me that my art is not good enough. I vow to move forward this season without the chains of anxiety & doubt and express myself truly & without fear. xoxo

Awrooo to you! I'm so excited for Monday. I will be on Block Island with limited internet access, but will make my way into town from time to time to the little library to check in with you all. In the meantime, I'll be searching for a large seashell and gathering sand for the smudging ritual. Oh, and of course...howling at the moon. Have an awesome weekend! xoxo
