I want to say thank you to the simple women, who never ~
ask too many questions.
Always do what they are told.
Try to fit in.
Speak when they are spoken to.

Thank you! for never challenging motherhood.
Or your husband Or your workplace.

Thank you for being so pleasant~ xoo …

It doesn’t bother you ~
that the world continuously puts you into boxes.
That you are rarely appreciated.
That you are often projected upon
& that you are used as a tool.

Men have taken over every institution, and you try to join in.

You don’t feel the other women SCREAMING.
Because of the destruction of nature,
the dismantling of our communities,
the desecration of women’s spiritual practices,
the war on our bodies…

… Sister, I wish I more like you….
But I’m afraid that’s impossible.

I always hear them screaming!
I watch the imbalances.
I spend every waking moment triggered
and challenged by a world that does not make sense to me.

I’m a walking time bomb,
blowing up the realities of people trying to conform.

I’m sorry I’m not safe. But I’m REAL.

Our demons danced with each other.

There was no shame in this allowance.
It felt ancient. Primordial. True.

I was more connected to source then, than I’ve ever felt trying to be… better.

I wanted him to be all of himself.
And he embraced me for me.

We touched the fires together
and it allowed us to speak our truth with certainty.

I’ve always been married to darkness,
which I believe makes me more light.

I think-
The illusions of our time stem from the need to control each other.
And so, we control ourselves.

I’m not a fan of chaos.
But I’m also not afraid of it.

I have a strong inner guidance.
And I lead from my heart.
My mind is rational.

And these qualities keep me balanced,
as i let myself be free.

I am a creative, witchy badass who enjoys using art
to explore the suppressed aspects of our souls.

I illuminate what is usually held in darkness.
And I live by our women’s mysteries,
which is about reclaiming the misunderstood aspects of our feminine nature.

As a daughter of the goddess,
I believe that we are a reflection of nature.

We are both light and dark.
Primal and pure.

Nature reminds us that we are WHOLE.
And it is important to explore our shadows
to figure out what we have suppressed,
so that we may claim our authenticity.

My purpose is to use my creativity to help us rebalance our polarities;
our current society holding the masculine pole,
And our soul circles helping us reWiLD.

~~~ ⭐

Being an Art Witch,
I use art as ritual tool to anchor what I desire in my life.

Through building altars to love, to sex, to birth, to deities, to my ancestors…
to transformation!

I turn what is stale in my life into something more passionate.

The most essential tool to an Art Witch is her “Book of Shadows” which contains her visions, her recipes,
her tools for transformation, and all her notes about what makes her come ALIVE.

An activity we may do in Art Witch circle is craft our Books of Shadows, while learning about the magick of intention,
our herstory as women, honoring the unseen, and giving voice to our emotional shadows so that
we may create an art book that is riddled with AUTHENTICITY.

~~~ ⭐

As an Art Witch, I do not limit myself to visual art.

Art is a way of life.

Whether I’m dancing or writing…
or coming up with a new business concept or choosing to become a mother
(which is the juxtaposition I’m at in my life.)—

 My creativity follows me.

Through FaeTerra.com, my husband Adam and I host experiences that reflect an InSpIRED way of living.

If you’d like to come to an ART WITCH Circle, visit our EVENTS page.
Also, Look at my Art! & Read my blogs.

Sometimes emotions are hard to put into words.

I learned early on in our relationship –
that if I put a paint brush in Adam’s hands when he is emotional,
I’ll more deeply understand what he’s going through.

When you do a “Doodle Painting” with your partner-
It’s not supposed to be pretty. And neither of you need to know how to draw.

It’s about noticing the feelings behind your squiggles, the hearts and the spirals.
It’s a safe space to doodle “FUCK YOU” then splatter paint…
to get to the bottom of your frustration.

~~~
In this particular doodle painting, Adam and I realized we feel happy.
This was strange because a few hours earlier we were in a fight,
frustrated by life circumstances that we cannot control.
We realized that although our environment is chaotic, and there is a lot to navigate-
Our love is there.

“Mountains move
And Rivers part

To make way for this Woman
who speaks from her Heart”

Some of us 
come into this world
without a filter.

We are Born

Blown

Open.

And although the world never gave us a reason
to feel safe to be ourselves,

we unapologetically express ourselves.

Like an angel walking amongst humans.
Or a mermaid finding herself on land.

We,
the authentic ones,

Stir those who are sleeping.

We wake the dead.

What if I said,
That every child is my child.
And every man is a reflection of GOD.
?

What if I told you that I am whole.
That my Belly is powerful.
That my Heart has wisdom.
That my Desire has meaning
?


What if I truly believe that my safety
depends on my understanding of nature.
And that my spirit’s journey has untapped potential
?

What if I live by the principle that
my darkness is something sacred
?

What if I told everyone that I map my life by the stars.
And my ancestral wounds by my moon blood…

That I don’t need to print out an astrology chart
to know that all of the world lives within me.


I want to vibrate at my fullest potential,
and never feel like I should market myself

I don’t need to prove myself
My radiance is in who I actually am
!

So, what if I decided not to fit in?
for the safety of my child
Or to create comfort for my husband
What if I stopped trying to make my family proud of me
And became a child of the UNIVERSE.
?

What if I just am the LIGHT.

Spider-Kali

I had a dream last night that Kali was dancing with her many arms,
spinning her web like a Spider.🕸️

I’ve never linked Spider Medicine with Goddess Kali’s mysteries.
But! They seem to go hand in hand.

Like the spider, Kali is hard to look at.
With her bloody fangs and many arms, Kali is the destroyer of illusion.
And the spider is known in shamanic traditions as an ancient symbol of power, mystery and growth.
~~ 🕸️

Kali, as a spider, reminds us that we weave the web of our own lives.

This web is woven based on our beliefs…
including illusionary beliefs that we choose to incorporate into our environment.

Kali is the destroy of illusions!
And our modern age is filled with illusions.

Most of them stem from other’s people’s fears,
which lead to us feeling manipulated and controlled by others–
in the name of safety, love, or healing.

What have you been believing in that caused you to weave your web with illusions?

Are you trapping yourself in your own web?
Are you sucking the life out of yourself?

It doesn’t matter if other people are choosing to weave these illusions into their web,
This is your life and it’s time to KALI-CHOP the illusions out of your story.

~~ 🕸️
So, I guess….Since I’m the one who dreamed about it –
It’s time to chop illusions out of mine <3

Does my art matter… if it’s just for ME?

Nowadays,
When I paint, I consider what will be most popular.
When I dance, I want to capture it on camera.
When I say something witty, I feel it needs to be written down for someone else to read.

And I wonder,
Is my creative impulse only for other people’s benefit?

~~
No, it can’t be!

Because every time I create for OTHERS, a part of my soul dies.

But!
I still work on my book to be published.
I compile my videos to be sold for educational use.
I am creative, just to teach other people how to be creative…

Because I’ve been taught to believe,
my worth is in how much I can give.

10 years of hosting workshops later,
I’m having trouble tapping into my own creative style.
It’s been watered down and washed away-
to be more digestible for my target audience.

“But you’re Famous!”
“You’re parents approve of you now!”
“You’re making money.”
“You are helping people!”

I’m loosing myself….
Every time I get to this point.
I DESTROY everything I’ve built … to re-claim me.

~~~

At FaeTerra,
Our Expressive Art workshops are designed to help you be the most creative person you can be!

“The Purpose of Art is Washing the Dust of Daily life off our Souls.”

Never tell people you are more tame than you are.

…. Unless you want to attract a romantic partner who pigeon holds you.
Or attract friends who shame your desires.

NEVER CENSOR YOURSELF!

Let your FrEaK FlAG fly!
Show your Rainbow Colors and be proud!

Not everyone is going to like you.
But the right people are going to LOVE you.

Figure out what turns you on,
THEN!
fearlessly let GO Of people who Do NoT resonate with you.

You deserve to live for yourself.

This is my “Little Ms. PERFECT” mask. .•*¨*`•.Ƹ̴Ӂ̴Ʒ

I wear it for approval.
I wear it to make money.

I wear it to make my romantic partner happy.
Or to make my parents happy.
Or to make my children happy.
I wear it so that I’ll have more love.

~~
But the truth is,
wearing the perfect mask is toxic.
It will lead to depression, anxiety and a disconnection from self.

It will keep you from being who you truly are.
And keep you from becoming, who you are truly meant to become.

Be Messy! Make Mistakes!
TAKE OFF THE MASK
