Growing up, my orientation about Altars was mixed, a bit historical, theological and imaginal. Large altars were the focal point in churches. Mythic Gods and Goddesses danced in merriment in Sacred Groves, which for me became imaginal altars of the natural world. As a child I recall making shadow boxes with figurines , toys and sometimes clay figures.

In time, I began to create vignettes of objects, visual 3D stories of stones, crystals, seashells, candles etc., in my home. Little did I know that I was creating altars. Here below, a public image of a stone altars.

When I came to New Mexico, new visual worlds revealed themselves in this very artistic community. Day of the Dead Altars contests at Halloween. Artistic Altar contest, Black Madonna Altars…it was as tho the childhood Shadowboxes had magically reinvented themselves !

Now I create collage altars, symbolic points of remembrance of intentional prayer and memories. Often creative themes emerge that I would like to explore for awhile, either a color and design theme or totemic themes…such as this altar here, one side is a mystical journey across an imaginal landscape, the other a more person symbolic reference to Northern New Mexico.

Sometimes altars are devotional. As a JourneyCircles™ Faciliator I began to explore creating in the round, specific themes on round cards, that I then mix and match to hold a space of contemplation for a time.

This year I am working on a pop-up Altar that can fit in a Cosmic Smashbook. This is a work in progress, which will be revealed on Saturday Oct 31st. in Honoring our Ancestors ~ Under the Light of the Full Moon workshop with Ellison James and Myself. Beginning 6:00 pm MST

To begin, I extend my prayers to all, wishing ease & grace with the variety & various  wavelengths of circumstances that you may be finding yourself in ~ the list of unfortunate circumstances is long, yet I sense that the list of silver linings is growing too.

I want to introduce your to my friend and fellow Intentional Creativity Teacher, Ellison James.  She and I had a conversation last month and as we were sharing our paths and visions, a new vision emerged. ( that is often the case with creatives !) .  Ellison is joining my website as an contributor with her gifts.  As the next year comes, I hope to have more contributors with their unique points of view and offerings.   My new website is almost ready for launch, but I want to get this announcement out to you today.  

Ellison is a talented and remarkable Wisdom Guide offering us her insight and guidance of the changes for this point on the Wheel.   She is experienced in the Sacred Ways of the Medicine Wheel and is going to lead us in this Season’s Circle of Honoring.

The Event is Free, our gift to you ~

 

 

The Circle access opens at 5:45 pm PST we shall begin at 6:00 PM PST

Last night we lost our National Treasure, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.  In her honor, thank you for the gifts that you gave our country, that you gave to each of us.

 

 

These shifts and events are happening so quickly that we hardly have time to pause and integrate.  We may be witnessing our community in any variety of disaster or we are holding steady. Holding steady takes work, responding to an overwhelming shift in circumstances takes work. Whatever side of the situation we find ourselves in, we are together, holding prayers, activating healing, grieving.   Sacred Time is your ally as the hours pass.  I will say that again, Sacred Time is your ally , your supporter, as the hours pass.  

Once again, here is the Zoom link to register: Monday Night

In the meantime, we move on at a pace we cannot quite comprehend . I hope that you can take time for a cup of tea, for a sacred pause.
