I have always felt so connected to Frida Kahlo. Not because I'm an artist, but because of her endurance through pain and physical challenges. Actually, even more so because we have the commonality of being RBK (right below knee) amputees. I have been an amputee for over 50 years, so I can relate to her exploration in art through the spiritual journey that this takes one on. I've created many Frida Art Dolls over the years,  but my most recent one held great meaning for me. This time I…

Those scars that we acquire in life, the residues from trauma, they stay with us. But how they remain with us 5 years later are different than how they present 10 years later.

The Atlas Moth has a special place in my heart not only for its beauty but for its symbolism. Some say it was named after Atlas in Greek Mythology, who was deemed to hold the weight of the skies on his shoulders. Sometimes don't we all feel like that? Things can feel heavy with all of the literal, as well as perceived,  responsibilities on us. Moth medicine can teach us about camouflage - when to be seen and not - and the importance of discernment in who we show our vulnerability to. The…

The Norse Goddess Freyja is known to be the Goddess of Love, Beauty, Fertility,  Sex, War, and Magic....but she is so much more Complex and Powerful than that description. I've worked with Freyja for 12 years, and it has always been meaningful on so many levels.

Within the Love aspect, she not only oversees loving relationships, but most…
