My path to receiving this gift was full of many trails and much advice which distilled down to some very simple steps.</div><div><br></div><div>Trust your own feelings, test the hell out of them.. But trust for you are the only one who can know what goes on in your own heart. </div><div><br></div><div>Spend time everyday unplugged and alone. Start with a few minutes and build up to longer times. You are your own best friend and constant companion.</div><div><br></div><div>Spend time in nature daily.</div><div><br></div><div>Take long baths or showers and dream or imagine what you would talk about with your spiritual advisers.</div><div><br></div><div>Read read read books, stories, faerie tales, spiritual books and grand glorious novels </div><div><br></div><div>Write with a pen or pencil on real paper every day. Start by coping phrases or quotes than inspire or uplift you. Then you can see where the writing takes you. </div><div><br></div><div>Use your imagination for this is the key to communicate with those in the unseen world say prayers of thanks out loud to whom ever you pray to. This is especially effective when spending time in nature, gardening, at the beach or lake and while driving. Make one of those prayers thank you for helping me to walk in beauty and grace.</div><div><br></div><div>Listen with your 3rd mind as you create a daily practice. Your 3rd mind is the part of your mind that is the observer and the witness of your awake and sleeping life, the recorder of dreams, hunches, inspiring actions, boldface lies and untruths. It is the part of you that puzzles out problems and helps you understand. </div><div><br></div><div>Love all of you both the light and the dark, for every aspect of you is important and worthy of understanding and observation and celebrating as they are uniquely you!</div><div><br></div><div>Be patient </div><div><br></div><div>Build little altars everywhere and change them when inspired. Simply or complicated from a feather and a rock to a faerie garden. Do what will inspire and uplift your heart. Then change when it is no longer making your heart go flitter flop. </div><div><br></div><div>Love, trust and a little bit of faerie dust..

Cloudy days followed by even thicker cloudy evenings had been the norm the previous week. Tonight was the full moon, I had taken the time to meditate and journey in the summer house on this full moon night and imagine seeing Grandmother Moon in her full glory on a clear star filled sky. <br>I found images of flying dragons slipping in my journey, gliding by outlined by moon light then completely blocking out the light leaving only the gleam of fire in their eyes before seeing the moon appear again.<br><br>I finished my ritual, glanced at the darkening sky and was rewarded to see a bit if blue and gold as sunset began. Maybe just maybe I would be able to see the moon tonight.<br>Returning to the house, my potted garden plants cried for watering, cats required cuddling and days end chores began. <br><br>The dusk gathered thickly and so did our clouds, perhaps tomorrow I thought.<br>Time for bed and I did not give the moon another thought until I started to close the curtains before turning on the lamp beside my bed. I looked out the windows into the night sky between the cedars to see if there was even a glow in the cloud cover. <br><br>To my amazement the clouds had formed a very distinct dragon profile with an eye shape and a a half circle of the moon formed the eyeball. There was also a rainbow at the top of the dragon head. <br><br>I closed my eyes , rubbed them, looked again. It was still there. I walked into the next room and looked out that window in case I was seeing a smudged spot in the window glass. No same view...so I brought in the big guy to check it out. He saw the dragon eye as well. Yippee I was delighted. Went back to the first window to see the clouds slowly cover her beautiful light as if to say good night. <br>Moonlight and dragons forever in my Summer full moon memories.<br>Peg 7/19/16</span><br style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoXFTcn0t_tX6TyvddOQRYG0jFdPkb1v5j4h8iNcvyEeXZx_GiFQewCo_tc87cU-_H8pdLzrAokwZ_znHLSSfavxDj-iNi-AVBOgbuLuR6YBumwOCQCfWHfuIW0FslPpfENJ6K9w/s640/blogger-image-1882795320.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoXFTcn0t_tX6TyvddOQRYG0jFdPkb1v5j4h8iNcvyEeXZx_GiFQewCo_tc87cU-_H8pdLzrAokwZ_znHLSSfavxDj-iNi-AVBOgbuLuR6YBumwOCQCfWHfuIW0FslPpfENJ6K9w/s640/blogger-image-1882795320.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0ZiSch16BWp7Ax6SSzcYg9Vs3o94KNkSBDVqQDX-6yjQ_uXll_U85xCO0hm-vMODlPvULQTMwEO_O2WJA88-MZa9WkdCG75Dlvq4oqZiRKERRYVUonONJJnHlyMLJsr3V9snuWw/s640/blogger-image-1864560860.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0ZiSch16BWp7Ax6SSzcYg9Vs3o94KNkSBDVqQDX-6yjQ_uXll_U85xCO0hm-vMODlPvULQTMwEO_O2WJA88-MZa9WkdCG75Dlvq4oqZiRKERRYVUonONJJnHlyMLJsr3V9snuWw/s640/blogger-image-1864560860.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB_ywlxMDZFFOQ6l5cc_LwB8j-2A8bHiiMzMRqPmwAdo_4I19XGIQM33ewy2D_6EfWSgSeTzhFmCOsMeLL9oRQKbxNqJGslpoExwfqsTi6gQ6X5xwVdYfbfmTlcJfCe-f0Hv9yew/s640/blogger-image-2082697563.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB_ywlxMDZFFOQ6l5cc_LwB8j-2A8bHiiMzMRqPmwAdo_4I19XGIQM33ewy2D_6EfWSgSeTzhFmCOsMeLL9oRQKbxNqJGslpoExwfqsTi6gQ6X5xwVdYfbfmTlcJfCe-f0Hv9yew/s640/blogger-image-2082697563.jpg"></a></div>Peg Gyldenegehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14914515980786063555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019166.post-54316008133725956372016-06-28T11:47:00.000-07:002016-06-28T11:47:18.866-07:00My life as a Shaman<div class="MsoNormal">
Started out as a usual Tuesday morning but adding rushing to get out the
door for a Dr Appointment. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Weather is cloudy and cool which invokes my third mind
thinking. Deep thoughts and puzzle pieces of experience suddenly clicking
together in patterns of understanding.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thinking back over many years of my work as a hairdresser
and realizing how many secrets and confessions, pain, happiness, loss and life
have been presented to me. I saw a vessel filling and filling but instead of
overflow the vessel expanded and files were moved more locking cabinets were
installed and more drawers filled.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I was that vessel and
I held those emotions, dreams, fears joys, hate and more tightly packed away
for ??safekeeping”??</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then walking into the Dr’s office to check in I felt my blood
pressure kick up and could feel my pulse accelerate just entering the room. I
checked in sat down to wait and not only could feel the panic and jitteriness’
of the energy in the room but hear prayers and complaints swirling around the
waiting room. It struck me then that this room was also a vessel of sorts
holding the energy and emotions of all who had passed here and often deposited
so going into the Dr Office a brave face could be presented when escorted into
the inner offices.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The room was nearly
over whelming with unseen energy. So I sat closed my eyes imagined large roots
coming straight from my spine and feet. Said a prayer asked for angelic
reinforcements and became a portal to release the no longer needed energies,
and while in this quiet place I also let
go of those many, many years of those carefully
stored secrets I have been carrying around. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It was amazing I
could feel when all was cleared and the air took on the smell of roses. I closed
the portal withdrew the roots and just when the last bit was gone the door
opened and the room filled with patients and my name was called for my
appointment.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I stand in gratitude
and blessings to all my spiritual guides and teachers throughout the last 40 or
more years.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For having the courage to accept the role as Shaman and
knowing how and why to be able to not only release energy but fill the space
with love and light and rainbows of color. Right now this moment I feel lighter
than air.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Why we create
gemstone elixirs in the Misty Valley<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Energy
is present in all matter. From dirt to diamonds each particle of matter can be
show to have and energy signature. That energy is filled with microscopic
memories and qualities of each cycle or incarnation of life and time it has
experienced. Like the saying from Heraclitus </span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">“No man
ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not
the same man.”<br /><o:p></o:p></span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">The stone people
in our world bring much to the betterment of our lives. Each rock, crystal, stone
and piece of mineral laden material we call rock has unique memories, wisdom
and stories of history often waiting to be discovered by the geologist to the small child spying a
shiny rock on our daily walk.</span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> Our stone brothers provide beauty, wonder and awe
in all of us and for many of us have a special place in our heart.</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHrmhQruhJcmEKKwBZqmF67_VIXvgQZGDZKTbGINnmyuhUx7a8s-ysYTeJtHkbtrkXsCWmh6f-maEeO2LTx3pXMo7uAd9Qahd2ECS6dYElIhr72JkB9DiSnS7qMIOv4l3ELRDmaQ/s1600/2014-12-02+15.51.36.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHrmhQruhJcmEKKwBZqmF67_VIXvgQZGDZKTbGINnmyuhUx7a8s-ysYTeJtHkbtrkXsCWmh6f-maEeO2LTx3pXMo7uAd9Qahd2ECS6dYElIhr72JkB9DiSnS7qMIOv4l3ELRDmaQ/s320/2014-12-02+15.51.36.jpg" width="240" /></span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">Earth air fire
and water are the basic 4 elements are present in all stone families. Thousands
of years of formation in all weather and earth events in very different part of
the globe have created millions of species and combinations that we use and
know today.</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">From as long as
we began to record history the stone family has been a part of human history.<br /> </span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They offer us
healing and are used in pharmaceuticals, heat, light, communication (crystals
in radio and watches,) protection, beauty and peace (that small rock in your
pocket that you rub when feeling stressed)</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They hold
history, spark our imaginations, invite adventure, spark creative juices, show
wealth and power,</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They are used in
ceremony, used in body decoration, ground into power for all manners of paint,
(you can still see how they glow in the old masters work at many museums.)</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They spark
memories of other times and other places including space and the stars moon and
universe.</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They offer us
proof of time and hold the bones of people and creatures who walked this earth
in the beginning.</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They feed our
spirits, provide quiet joy (nothing like skipping rocks on a pond or filling
your pockets at the beach.)</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">They honor or
final resting place. They bless us with beauty they whisper stories of day s
gone by and heal our weary spirits</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">When you gather stones together and study what healing they offer by studying
their meanings and uses passed down through both oral and written history, you
can begin to see, hear and feel the properties offered by each kind of mineral
and rock.</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEige2g1SxCa56rNrsWQGUn0A2KMAQcoGqBhBxkSucJhfd0XMSWBIA-QNrEt4pu1Tr6kqL748_7oEUC_b_ff4lN6X65yIonxQjLTkhu7ChDkMekDV4MkKfKjUYWttYEeb8pkXV2jJg/s1600/2015-10-24+10.34.50.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEige2g1SxCa56rNrsWQGUn0A2KMAQcoGqBhBxkSucJhfd0XMSWBIA-QNrEt4pu1Tr6kqL748_7oEUC_b_ff4lN6X65yIonxQjLTkhu7ChDkMekDV4MkKfKjUYWttYEeb8pkXV2jJg/s320/2015-10-24+10.34.50.jpg" width="320" /></span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">We use stones to create healing altars to
carry our prayers and messages to those who need addition help in life and are
in need of understanding and reassurance that we are not alone but have allies
to help us walk step by step through everyday challenges.</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">

<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">When we create
our elixirs we are infusing the energies and history each stone or crystal
offers in small batches. They are created in specific conditions at specific
sun and moon cycles to receive the qualities needed for healing and uplifting
our emotional and spiritual bodies.</span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> They are created to be used in your own
spiritual practice safe to take orally, in baths in drinks or in sprays to
clean clear and uplift the energies that surround you, they may be used instead
of smudge smoke to energetically clean and clear a room, car or office space.</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 115%;">They are created to be used in your own spiritual practice. Created to
be safely taken orally, in refreshing baths, or in sprays to clean clear
and uplift the energies that surround you from everyday life.</span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 115%;"> We
also incorporate the elixirs in fragrant sprays so they may be
used instead of smudge smoke to energetically clean and clear while
invigorating a room, car or office space.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">When you fill a glass with water and you drink that water you are receiving
the experience of cellular memories of where ever that water has traveled to
reach you at the time you drink it. As you drink it the water and all it holds
blesses and refreshes your own spirit as well as your body with renewed vigor. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Our elixirs are created with fresh spring waters to bring you the same
energetic signatures and properties from each stone we are directed to create
as each season dictates.. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span><span style="line-height: 115%;">
Long hours of sunshine and specific moon times play a role in each elixirs
creation.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">We create single notes ( one stone) or combinations of stones to
infuse several qualities into one mix. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">
Each elixir is created at the Misty Valley, my home and sanctuary.</span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"> Misty Valley
is blessed and dedicated to healing, happiness and beauty indeed my sacred
place where I have been a caretaker for the past 38 years.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">

<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">I am often met with cynical faces asking "really do these
work?"

an entire room of people be uplifted and cheerful after passing out samples of
Larimar. I watched a roomful of people get absolutely giddy in the process of
bottling elixirs. </span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;">I have witnessed deep sadness gently lifted and connection
with spirit deepened. I have worked with elixirs for over 20 years and have
studies with several master healers to learn and perfect our process.</span><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> I was recently asked to create a sexy blend to
enhance love and connection. I studied and created 3 blends in small batches
noting how lively they were in creation.</span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 15.75pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #181818; font-weight: normal;"> First bottle sold and was repurchased within

As alway when I am working with these elixirs I find my self a bit giddy and my spirits soar to new heights as I work hard to remain grounded and orderly in the process of keeping all in order for the process of labeling.

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "malgun gothic" , "sans-serif";">I am a keeper of
stories a seer of patterns and connections of life and all that ribbons forth
between worlds. I am a shaman of the Fae and tell their stories of connection
and help people understand the sacred oneness of everyday life. I walk between
the worlds and have been tagged as a messenger as well as bringer of the light

early morning as well as the last moment before the sun has set and the magical
twilight of the night has begun. It is a special time between the worlds,
when day and night mix and mingle but is not completely one thing or the other
but a thinning of the barrier between worlds. It is those times that we
often see the twinkle or catch the wing shimmers or flutters of the
Fae.</span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "malgun gothic" , "sans-serif";"> The second Kingdom is our lives here and now
including all the animals, birds, sea creatures and insects.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "malgun gothic" , "sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The third kingdom refers to the unseen worlds of
the Devi's (spirits who help each plant) the Fae (the entire grouping of
the faerie races), Angels, star beings and other energies and all beings that
have the honor of taking care of the earth and all of her inhabitants.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "malgun gothic" , "sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><span style="background: white;">As well it includes the mostly invisible
energies that form the golden and silver energy netting from which all
life flows. This kingdom shares the same importance as the first which is
the kingdom of God and heaven and second kingdom is human and all who
walk, fly, swim and glide on and through the earth.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">We are giving you this definable way to
understand and open your eyes and heart to the fairies. There is much healing of
this world that will take place when there is more of a human / Fae connection.
There is much love from the Fae that has been held awaiting the day when the
bridge has been built again between us and we may travel freely between the
worlds.</span><br />
<span style="background: white;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "malgun gothic" , "sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><span style="background: white;">One of the most important factors in
beginning to build this bridge is the loving and honoring of one’s own spirit.
For without honoring and understanding how each and every spirit belongs in the
great song of all life. We are unable to connect, in days past
and we mean hundreds of years in your time. The human race was struggling to
understand and evolve. Some were able to see us and many lessons were exchanged
and tales told around the fire light were lessons of education to those who
only had the barest of understanding of words or recorded history.. There was
many misunderstandings and there came a time for us to withdraw from the human
race as you evolved. As with all life there is a cycle and a season as you
would say for change and we are now preparing to come together with you as is
foretold in the shifts and energy changes that have taken place in this last 10
years..</span><br />

<div>
<span style="color: rgb(69 , 69 , 69); font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">Sunday February 14 celebration night of the faerie heart. I have been tasked with a mission of deep and unending love</span><br />
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
I have been informed that the chocolate industry, diamond retailers or Hallmark did not invent this celebration of our heart but merely tapped into a secret practice where the Fae were busy spreading loving blessings on those who unselfishly taking care of Mother Earth and her inhabitants as a matter of fact and with out thoughts of reward or recognition. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
Since ancient times there has always been a gathering of Faeries on this this night, a night of spreading love and uplifting anyone and everyone's heart with love from the Great Mother. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
It is the night to take a few moments and tune in deeply to the divine feminine source of life. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
There is an unending supply of this love and as you open to receive it we ask that you also open all of your chakra points for it to flow out of and into the world from you. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
For as you do this not only are you cleansed and uplifted but it increases the love energy in our personal world.. And as well blesses and changes the negative into the positive. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
I have been asked to create this love altar and keep it in place till February's last day</div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
And as well request that any who desire send me a message or respond on this post to place names of yourself and loved ones in the crystal heart. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
This is for extra love blessings from the Fae in deep thanks and gratitude for our honoring and caring for the earth and all our relations at this special time in the winter season. This special energy is was is called forth to stir, shake and spark the new life coming forth this spring. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
So if you desire Please send me your name and names of those you love and care about to place inside the crystal heart. If you feel shy send me a message. </div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">

The need to pause, reflect and give thanks has always been important to me. Taking time each quarter of the year for ritual or ceremony has been a major part of my life for many years. Time seems to whirl by and my mind chatter often repeats not enough not enough you need to ......... and the list is endless not only from my own life but what the over culture seems to add we must do. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have always been an observer of nature and love to watch the wheel of the year turn and see the changes each season brings. They follow unseen signals and signs and provide such different beauty with each season. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I find it not only comforting to pause and celebrate at the beginning of each season but also take the time to plan,give thanks and bring all of my scattered parts back together to move forward. What needs mending, what need renewal, what needs putting away.</div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The question has been raised several times about the Fae and
iron. In my experience there are no issues. Think about it for a moment iron is
an element of the earth and the gnomes and elves who work with metals, stones
and minerals encounter it and create with it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
According to many old
Faeires tales faeries stayed away from iron as it was toxic to them. Some of
this knowledge or information started during the Iron Age as the earth was rapidly
changing in ways we hunted and built things. Much of nature was destroyed and
cleared out to make way for “progress”. The small tribes of people who relied
on stone and wood to hunt and protect them were suddenly wiped out as the tools
were no match for the new metals. There became a great fear of iron as it ended
life quickly and suddenly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Faeries are in
partnership with nature and green and growing things and have watched many many
places wiped out and modernized or simply destroyed for greed or human
foolishness.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12.0pt;">
The Fae went into seclusion and left their
legacy mostly to stories and tales shred around the fire late at night. But some
people began to take notice and see how all is connected and our natural world needs us
to actively protect and admire as well as been a part of it. The shifts in energy and recent ( and I mean
in the last 40 years) have brought about a coming together of humans and the
Fae working together in a partnership to balance out this world..</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12.0pt;">
So to answer your question your husband’s
weight lifting equipment will not prevent your connection or honoring place for
the Faeries. Your intent and desired to connect and be a part of the Faerie
connection is the most important part of your setting up a Faerie Altar.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12.0pt;">
And like many of us certain things are not healthy
for us and cause allergic reactions. You may encounter some Fae who feel that way
about iron. But they know and understand such matters and will stay away from
them. Think of it as if you were allergic to eating apples but you loved seeing
orchards of apple trees. You could still go and admire smell and enjoy the orchard
but you knew not to eat the apple.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12.0pt;">
Stop worrying about rules and am I doing this
the right way. Open your heart and mind and simply believe in the Fae and the
doorways will open. Give thanks for the tiny miracles we are shown each and
every day , sunrise a child’s laughter, flowers in bloom, dandelion seed heads…
and clean up trash, respect Mother Earth as bit by bit you make the world a better
place</div>

This has been a very delightful blooming for me as well as a great exercise in letting go and moving forward instead of dithering in that lost place of perfection and the shame of not good enough. I began this project with a cataclysmic upheaval in our home and 6 months so far of indoor camping. But that my dears is another story.</span><br />

I must create or complete things daily or I find myself in a jumble and cranky. Not the way I like to be in the world. I have so many ideas and thoughts that bang about in my cranium begging for release and they will not let me be until I at least begin to bring them from my daydreams into life in what ever form they happen to take. I am sure many of you can relate. I set up rules in the beginning to do a Faerie tale related pencil sketch not a finished piece but a jumping off point for later creations. and I gave myself 30 minutes. No dilly dallying about not over working and NO CHICKENING OUT! what I drew is what goes out to be posted on Instagram.</span><br />

Ruthie was such a gentle soul with a wicked sense of humor.
She held a full time job for 40 years and quietly helped bolster everyone around
her encouraging helping and loving unconditionally everyone she encountered. All
of these women were pioneers and took on tasked “women weren’t welcome”. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One played poker in downtown Seattle card rooms and made enough
money each week to feed her family during the great depression. One helped dear
Japanese secret friends during World War 2 and traveled to Puyallup internment
camps to bring much needed unavailable supplies that could be smuggled thru the
fence.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They were adventures
and willing to go on Peg adventures when I was possessed by one of my “Wild
hairs”. We once drove to Canada on a day trip to check out a bead store & handmade
paper store. Left early morning car supplied with thermoses of hot coffee and fresh
muffins spending the next 10 hours having fascinating conversations and learning about the amazing
lives of these 3 women. As well a flash and dash of artful shopping.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They became family
and patrons of my art. They pitched in to help me buy a kiln which was entirely
out of my budget at the time. One even gave me her enameling kiln when she was
preparing to pass on. We learned to fuse glass, create with seed beads, and
create in precious metals, watercolor, torch enamel and more. They encouraged
me on days I could not get past my lack of self worth. Then cheered me on gave
advice in ways that helped me grow, they laughed about sex and how important is
it to be yourself at all costs.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I mourned each of
their deaths and yet knew they are always in my heart and part of my soul. But
today I thank them for added the mothering I so needed as well as the lovely
glow of friendship and love of creative work between friends.</div>

I always like to experience something new on the Full moon each month and as this is the final moon for the year 2014 and winter is soon upon us bringing different changes and challeneges to our daily life I thought I would offer up this excellent scentful recipe.<br />
<br />
According to my research there were 4 or 5 (depending on the source info on the net )Thieves who decided they would help themselves to other peoples belongings at the height of the "plague" This group of essential oils was mixed then diluted in a base oil for them to apply to their bodies and it prevented them from catching the big bad plague germs.<br />
<br />
There was also an added bonus to this mixture it smells divine. I found the recipe at Mountain Rose"s blog. In case you are not aware they have a amazing collection of herbs,spices essential oils and more in a wonderful online store and you can purchase the EO's to create your own 4 Thieves oil blend to help clean , heal and brighten up your home.<br />
<br />
This is directly from their blog and here is the store address<br />

Being and feeling comfortable with your self is the most

God, Goddess, Great Spirit whoever you are in tune with. Your open heart and
willingness to do the spiritual work at hand is all that is required. All the
rest is window dressing. My rituals are meant to bring you closer to your

experiencing, living and enjoying this life you have right here right now. The Fae

This was one of my first, cherry word from pruning.eye screw and twine. I carried in my pocket and asked many many questions in learning what,where,how and why I liked it as a tool and what were the best ways to use it on a daily basis. Somethings I learned the hard way and in the process learned to try myself.</div>

<ul>
<li> Made a simple chart with <b>Yes</b> written on one side and<b> No</b> on the other.</li>
<li> Hold the pendulum in your dominant hand between your thumb and first finger while resting your elbow on the table to remain steady.</li>
<li> Hold it over yes and ask show me your signal for Yes.</li>
<li> Make note is it going in a circle or is it moving back and forth or side to side? </li>
<li> Then move over to the other side and ask the same of No.</li>
<li>Practice is very important and do it as often as possible.</li>
<li> Pendulums are meant for questions asked with a yes or no answer. SIMPLE questions.</li>
<li> This is not a computer and the answers you get are based on the factors in place at moment and time of your inquiry.</li>
<li> Free will plays into long term questions and answers will vary according the all factors.</li>
<li> Practice is your friend and the more comfortable you are the better.</li>
<li> Here are a couple of exercises to increase your skill make a more complex chart</li>

Sometimes I get an answer I don't want so my rule is ask the same question 3 times.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In this chart I added 2 extra sections</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Not Now</b> means back off you are getting a head of your self and so try asking again in a day or two </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This one I have pushed the envelope one too many times and ended up having to do more clean up than had I simply listened to this advice.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Being human means many of you will test this to the limit and I will add..... keep a roll of paper towels, moist wipes,aspirin and garbage bags in your car. you can thank me later.</div>

When you bring in your daily mail turn the envelopes over before looking and use your pendulum to practice for accuracy. Is this a request for money?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Is this good news? Is this dumb junk?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Does this have a coupon for free Pizza?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in pencil note your answer then see what your accuracy rate was.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you have know food allergies hold your pendulum over the allergy food and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
see what reaction you get?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Is it yes or no or do you get entirely new formation shape?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Try it on products you use in your home. Most of all make it fun and enjoyable. I have owned several different pendulums in my life and they each produce different signals for Yes and No, I learned always to test then out when I use them especially when I haven't used it in a while. I have even had some that would not move for anything in my hands but did the huchi kuchi dance for someone else..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Let me know how you are doing and send me photos of your pendulum </div>

As Autumn moves into winter I was reminded in my morning meditations of ways to physically see energy lines and changes in our little neck of the woods. The Fae use doorways between the worlds. From our own homes and gardens as well as in our local parks, parking lots, bus stops and more. </div>
<div>
One way to see energy changes is by using a pendulum. You can create a pendulum from anything. </div>
<div>
Here is one I created from pruning in my yard. </div>
<div>
Create a pendulum and hold it in your dominate hand. To begin rest your elbow on the table and ask it to show you the movement for Yes Make a note. Ask it to show you the movement for No. Make a note. </div>
<div>
To check for different energy signals around your home. Get centered and walk to different areas. Stand quietly and hold your pendulum out and see if it hangs limply, or moves. If you get movement note what kind. Circle, back and forth, wild gyrations???</div>
<div>
Then try it out side. See how things vary and how does your body respond as well. Do you feel cold, hot, buzzy or get a feeling in the pit of your stomach. If you feel wary or unsafe. Move on now. </div>
<div>
Let's take a week and observe and feel. Use a small notebook to track your progress. Then let's post and see how everyone is doing. and if you discovered the different energy places around you. Think of it as dowsing for water as they did in the old days.<br />
<br /></div>

The dead stop made me feel not safe in the pit of my stomach and I quickly moved on, at another of these spots I did not listen and fell flat on my fanny a few steps away. Alright I growled I get it not the place for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Some places wereeven soothing and I spent a wee bit of time soaking up the peacefulness. A couple made me giggle??</div>

<div>
The dancing of the May Pole is a very very old pagan tradition and a way to celebrate Beltane. It is the celebration of the fertility and growth of this season, the lush greenery of the beginnings of gardens and growth as week as our days getting longer and our nights shorter. </div>
<div>
The May Pole dance was a way of bringing together new relationships and weaving wishes and hopes for the summer and beyond. </div>
<div>
The chosen trees were honored and the tree spirit or Dryad was celebrated as a honored guest. </div>
<div>
Hawthorn trees play a magical role in May Day. They are know as the heart tree.</div>
<div>
They were traditionally protected as they were guardians to the doors of faerie kingdom. Their flowers and leaves were and still are used for healing and flavoring food and drink. </div>
<div>
Folks made wishes and tied ribbons on the branches to ensure their success in the summer season. It is considered lucky to wear a small branch part pinned to your clothing on May Day. You must ask for a branch or collect it from a windfall as the Hawthorn tree is protected by the faerie folk and do not like those who are disrespectful. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Spirals are also very important on May Day and marketing faerie wishes while walking or dancing in a spiral is a powerful and fun way to celebrate this magical time of year. Use to to bring new love or strengthen and freshen the love you all ready have in your life. Nothing brings more inner peace and happiness than being grateful and joyful of all you are and the blessings that fill your life.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So cut a dozen ribbons and make a wish for each 3 for your self,3 for the world, 3 for your family ( your blood or your chosen ) and 3 for the faeries. Take your ribbons outside and tie them to the trees of your choice and dance or walk in a spiral as your make your wish and give thanks. </div>
<div>
A spiral show start in the middle and expand out just as your wish is expanding out into the world.. As you reach the end stamp your feet or clap and finish with Blessed Be!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To celebrate create small fresh flower crowns for your hair. Simple flowers and leaves woven together in a circle are great. I have used old wire shaped in a circlet to fit my head and the woven and looped daisy mums from the grocery store and added leaves from my garden. Be creative. Or simply tuck a flower behind your ear. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For your maypole invite a few friends or family over (even numbers please.) make wishes and weave and dance the ribbons around in a over under pattern tying off with another ribbon when you have reached the end.. I always like leaving tails to flutter in the wind. I leave my maypole up till June to remind me of my hopes and reams and blessings of this time of year.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I also add tiny bells to the ribbon tails at the top of the maypole to call to the faeries as they love the sound of tiny jingle bells</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To create your own May Pole</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
Dowl rod 3/4" diameter 26" length</div>
<div>
10 ribbons 3/4" nylon chiffon 2xlength of May pole</div>
<div>
Cut an even number for weaving </div>
<div>
I choose to cut 10</div>
<div>
May pole basic assembly </div>
<div>
I am making a small MayPole for the Fae. I used a 3/4" diameter wooden dowel rod cut to 26" in length</div>
<div>
3/4" nylock nut for the top of the pole to finish and hold the ribbons in place. </div>
<div>
I used 10 3/8" nylon chiffon ribbon. I choose rainbow or Chakra colors. You need an even number of ribbons. I cut them 2 times the length of the pole. Tied a knot at about 3/4 of the length this gives you a tassel for the top of the pole. </div>
<div>
Taper the dowel with a file or whittle a bit off with a sharp knife so the nylock nut slides on easily. Feed the knot and tassel end of the ribbon thru the nut, then arrange the 10 ribbons evenly around the dowel before tightening down. </div>

I had the extreme pleasure and terror of creating a piece for the 3x2 project. It is a collaboration of metalsmiths and a glass bead artists to create a piece inspired by each others work.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
It is called 3x2 as each team creates 3 pieces of the same design. It began in November of last year when we all were paired up by names drawn out of a hat.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I have had the delightful pleasure of working with the talented glass artist Leslie Goldstein from Olympia.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
These pieces will be on display for a very short time at Facere In Downtown Seattle. Our piece is the last piece on the bottom right.</div>

I have been working on many different projects getting ready for my visit to FaerieConWest Feb 21 thru 23,2014. If you are in Seattle Stop by for a time you will never forget. The conference is being held at the SEA/TAC DoubleTree Inn. And look for me in my Peg's Wild Hair Studio Booth Check out the Gemstone FAerie wands!!!<br />
<br />
As you may or may not know I and a shaman and have been working in spiritual or "whoo-whoo" arenas for 37 years, I have been blessed with many wonderful teachers and learned so many things that help me do the work this life has for me. I an a healer,teacher,artist and guide for those who have passed over as well as for those who are working out their own life's stories and mysteries.<br />
One area of which i have been abundantly been blessed in is seining and communicating with the Fae. It has taken me a long time to understand that not every could see what I see. That the world is filled with magic of the most simple everyday delights that we simply take for granted.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0nf9wzNs5ox0aOpVaKb33a9mAgIMPdWUUS3Nxl4CQGxVP1pD0Qs_yfbzWkj2Aose_yKi84Ljj4BMM04K2vpiNKU_1tE8er1InVV2bDXjstlRGMzzFZ6RGLOLZu8NiCbljlcoLNw/s1600/IMG_3404.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0nf9wzNs5ox0aOpVaKb33a9mAgIMPdWUUS3Nxl4CQGxVP1pD0Qs_yfbzWkj2Aose_yKi84Ljj4BMM04K2vpiNKU_1tE8er1InVV2bDXjstlRGMzzFZ6RGLOLZu8NiCbljlcoLNw/s1600/IMG_3404.JPG" height="320" width="240" /></a>I met my husband when in a class of metaphysical nature and together we created a sanctuary and place of healing and ceremony. We have held,attended and led many many ceremonies and rituals, celebrating our journey in life,death and more. This place I call Misty Valley is home for many of the Fae and I have be blessed with the pleasure of not only seeing them but channeling their wisdom and knowledge.<br />
<br />
For many years I keep this hidden and tried to ignore it and you can see how well that has worked. So in my own wisdom I have decided to embrace it fully and just enjoy the ride. Following my own muses and presenting it to the world. I have created some( if I do say so myself) delightful items that you use to play with the faeries.<br />

New Moons signify a new beginning, time to start new projects, move forward like the seedling and bulbs stirring in our gardens. Unseen energy starting mother natures clock of gestation. A period of time in the dark growing and changing before emerging into the world to blossom and grow.<br />
<br />
I find it very fitting to have the pleasure of this second new moon to begin new projects after seeing many little Altars last Sunday at Lynn Vernon's welcoming home. Thank you so much Lynn<br />
<br />
We gathered those who were able, for a day of sharing, making art and sharing stories of the journey of the last year. A wonderful buffet of tasty tidbits greeted us with every accouterments coffee or tea has to offer. We started right away playing with acrylic paint and gelli plates creating sheet after sheet of glorious color on paper to be creative with another day.<br />
Lunch was then served white bean chicken chili with all the fixings. I got another wild hair and baked ginger cream fortune cookies. Ever try shoving tiny rolled up parchment paper in gooey cookie dough!?!?!?! and every one got to chose four to see what the next 30 days have to offer. That was great fun.<br />
<br />
Then Drum roll please we spend time checking out each completed Little Altar Project<br />
<br />
It was so fun to see the assembled Altars and admire the work in detail. Photos are a fun way to share but they do not capture all the tiny details that each artist created each month.<br />
Kimberly's pieces had such delicate wire work and vibrant color in her fused glass. The wire work could have been woven by spiders.<br />
Nancy's delicate color choices and gentle nuances were breathtaking in person.<br />
Lynn Vernon's challenge for her self was working in unknown materials and her mastery of metal smithing was sublime.<br />
Cyn's creation of gnome homes was a spectacular year's journey into a village I would like to move into. Each tiny detail precise and playful at the same time<br />
.Lou brought her always whimsical felt creations to a new place. She designs wonderful handbags and it was such a pleasure to see what direction she who take each Full Moon<br />
Marilynn who also works in fabric as well as created the most delightful glass beads brought a joyful piece each and every month. they all feel and express the celebration of life and joy in pure and glorious color. Beth joined in the fun with her delightful collage skills and combined color,found objects and words in an inspiring way to each artist. <br />
Gwen brought us a new dimension of drawn art, wee creatures that want to jump off the altar spaces and play. I wanted them all.<br />
Kathy's work brought with them the winds of travel and the exotic delights of cultures from around the world. She set her sights high and created the most amazing things each month, the detail was incredible as I finally got to see some of them in person last week.<br />
Lynn Hranac's work was delightful in many different mediums and included her collections from beach glass to zen-tangles rounding out with bead embroidery and felting.<br />
<br />
This was a challenging year for many of us and I heard over and over how delightful it was to know a small package was coming in the mail. Something to look forward to each and every month. I have to say that is one of the reasons I started this project I love to open my mail box and find little treasures an unexpected card, postcards, a message from a friend...thinking of you.<br />
So now we are at the end and all of us own a Little Altars box to display. Remember when life makes you weary go there and feel the fun and imagination from 10 women who created their hearts out for each other in 2013<br />
Blessings of Art<br />

Every time I looked at the two spaces all I could see was a little creature sitting & gazing at the stars or swinging or doing something, but always sitting between the two spaces as though it was one complete space. So as I've learned, rather than fight the visions that you're seeing, trust them and go with them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I've learned the best place to start, if your piece will involve sculpting, is to begin with the sculpture itself. The rest of the details will take care of themselves once the sculpture is done.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">So I found the color liked. Blue seemed to suit the thoughtful posing I saw the character in. I curled his toes and helped him sit gently on the ledge. The drippiness of this particular clay lent to him naturally turning his head as though he were listening to something. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I tried out a few backgrounds to see how I'd like them. Then I sat back in my chair across the room to see what that gave as an effect to the whole tray as well as just that little area where he would be. Unfortunately this first set of the backgrounds just didn't quite do the trick.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh85IK_ddhaMvEQIpB2EVuQncQemlubYrnqkylnOWTHNsjo8eeA5wV3b7aTiKW6cN3Lzu3aXdaJas64kHNGJdxBRnKafjz7z3r3oxlOcoZJ_2KSkpLuvQKv0x7m3xC3D-n4yiCikg/s640/blogger-image--939777006.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh85IK_ddhaMvEQIpB2EVuQncQemlubYrnqkylnOWTHNsjo8eeA5wV3b7aTiKW6cN3Lzu3aXdaJas64kHNGJdxBRnKafjz7z3r3oxlOcoZJ_2KSkpLuvQKv0x7m3xC3D-n4yiCikg/s640/blogger-image--939777006.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">But he needed a little something more... He just felt so bare. And he was beginning to feel more like he was part of the stars, like a little being that had come down from the stars. So I gave him a crown of stars made from some star shaped sequins.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDZHjE_eioA7Lk04IjQk5lpWQDe8m5rWWiaMsjh56hg95c8vEJwik5TMvsp6bwUq2Nz3Woah7Z5hKTEUKN5P_eUUbxtyV95SVR5wUkwW8QzEiI9yFdZLtp2ayr5c10-hAJ1bvMzQ/s640/blogger-image--536095622.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDZHjE_eioA7Lk04IjQk5lpWQDe8m5rWWiaMsjh56hg95c8vEJwik5TMvsp6bwUq2Nz3Woah7Z5hKTEUKN5P_eUUbxtyV95SVR5wUkwW8QzEiI9yFdZLtp2ayr5c10-hAJ1bvMzQ/s640/blogger-image--536095622.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">After basking in the warm glow of the oven I gave him a little paint. I thought having a background with lines as well as stars would be fun, having lines looking more like astrological symbols and charts. So I used up a piece that I had already folded into a box (marked with sharp lines) and fit it into the new spot's shape. The background is actually made from colored pencil and is very similar to the one I made for the pink moon several moon exchanges back.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYC7XVbJOX0v_ewbJjAQWk5kTDOPOQ3Mym5Wn61l7lPKPuZb89dYdmaS0-ozksLmnLlcYD3TMM5Z81Xlaji1g3pdkk1qdA6z5oAh-zBLwpKUHbM8rvzaGKec6XRx6zMTloEdUydA/s640/blogger-image--1162936411.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYC7XVbJOX0v_ewbJjAQWk5kTDOPOQ3Mym5Wn61l7lPKPuZb89dYdmaS0-ozksLmnLlcYD3TMM5Z81Xlaji1g3pdkk1qdA6z5oAh-zBLwpKUHbM8rvzaGKec6XRx6zMTloEdUydA/s640/blogger-image--1162936411.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Meet my star being.

were for me- so no problem on whether the person would like them!! But still
the inspiration problem...Then I saw the gorgeous full moon on January 15th. It
was the biggest, brightest, closest moon I had ever seen! I was in awe and knew
I had to use a moon image for the top space. I had a fancy moon button I got in
Portland and 3 little star beads for one side and then made a small accordion
book filled with a special quote for the other side, held in place with a lock
and key.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"><br />
<span style="background: white;">The
other space reminds me of all the wonderful times I've had with friends and a
cup of tea! I made the lace covered table out of a small box and the tea pot
and cup are charms from the same fabulous shop in Portland. Wouldn't you just
love to sit and have a cuppa? Hugs, Beth</span><br />

the pictures and having a monthly exchange made me stretch myself as an artist
too. I really enjoyed this time with all of you and wish you all a very
creative 2014! Hugs, Beth<o:p></o:p></span></div>

a blue piece of glass to make something of my own for the other side.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"><br />

I think she goes nicely with the idea of Magic, don't you?</span><br />

because I wanted them to be different!!!! As you all know, I have used
this opportunity to try new mediums as well so wanted to end with at least one
new skill at the end of the Altar Project.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

sun! This led me to the top spot which starts with a photograph of the
amazing blue waters inside of a cave in Italy on the Island of Capri. The
water is so starkly beautiful and amazing given the limited light inside of the
caves. I have a stash of vintage jewelry parts and pieces and one of them
is an adorable sterling silver fish that at one time was a brooch. Now it
swims amongst the plants and waters on the Island of Capri! It’s
whimsical and light hearted.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

decided this was the month! I chose sterling silver. I corrugated
the metal and used that as the bezel creating a shape that was pleasing to
me I wanted a textured and smooth finish so it has a brushed satin
texture overall and the high points were brought to a high shine. Life
has both smooth and rough roads and this piece was going to have the
same. The concrete is usually a gray color but I wanted to add my own bit
of sparkle so I incorporated opalescent pigments to the concrete in a purple tone
to match the synthetic lab created dark amethyst. The combination of
concrete and a gemstone are so intriguing to me! Hard and soft
combined. For the background I chose a photo of bougainvillea that I took
in Amalfi, Italy. The lighting doesn’t show the true colors of the
pendant I think it is much prettier in person and hope you both agree.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

present them to you in person on Sunday! You will need to tape or
glue your backgrounds down and tape or glue your little plant with swimming
fish too. The pendant can sit inside it’s spot until you are ready to
wear it or gift it to someone, whatever you choose to do.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

been one of the most wonderful experiences I've ever, ever done; creating
art, monthly for the calendar. Thank you Peg for the invitation; it's
been a challenge for sure, to not only make art for the assigned box, but also
learning and using photo shop along the way while putting my best words forwards.

this final month, I took a piece of dark green leather from the local craft
store and cute paper from a mailing of Peg's and chose them as my background
and backside signature page. I then chose a piece from my glass fusing class
from this past year and incased it inside a copper wire basket to hold the
white, red & dicro glass fused piece.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

of the space, I wanted to pay homage to the project and use a copper framed
piece I could add the verbiage "Little Alters" to, and then coat with
ice resin to complete my title. There are several products on the market for
resin. Pretty cool!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

attached my piece with copper head pins and coiled the ends and tucked them
