Shamanic Healing with Owl Spirit in Portland, Oregon

5 Owls in 7 Days

Wowza, Owl is coming through strongly! You know that feeling when Spirit is practically slapping you in the face with a repeat message? Yeah, I thought so.

Ready for a story?

If you’ve been following my work for a while, you’ve already heard me tell the stories of an owl attacking me and offering me a deep medicine initiation. You’ve heard the story of my powerful dreams and visions with Owl, and how this healing energy comes through in my Shamanic healing work with clients. (If you haven’t heard those stories and you want to, check out the blog archives.)

Owl began getting my attention one evening last week, when I heard 2 (or possibly 3) Great Horned Owls calling back and forth for 15 minutes straight. They were somewhere close by in the forest in front of my house near Portland, OR. At the time, I just enjoyed it and didn’t tune in more deeply.

Two days later, I was driving home after offering an Alchemy teaching/wisdom transmission, and suddenly a massive owl flew right over my car on the dark highway. I swerved slightly and recovered, but then forgot about it (until this morning).

Yesterday morning, Athena and I were hiking in the forest near our home and we walked right under a Great Horned Owl sitting on a low branch. I only saw it because I turned around to look at Athena right as it took off, and landed slightly ahead of us on a higher branch. I paused by its tree and offered gratitude and appreciation. As I turned away to keep walking, it flew off.

This morning on my way home from the park with Athena, a Barred Owl flew right in front of my car (that’s when I remembered the owl that flew over my car a few nights ago).

Message received. It was time to journey with Owl and see why Spirit was trying to get my attention.

So this morning I journeyed with Owl. And as Owl medicine does, it brought my attention to some things that are uncomfortable for me to see, but that hold the opportunity for profound healing. Owl offered guidance related to one of my current growth edges and helped me see where I have been resistant. And as Owl medicine always reminds me, “It is safe to see in the darkness.”

I received some powerful messages and healing transmissions that I’ll be reflecting on and integrating. Thank you, Owl!

Do you desire to connect with your spirit guides for healing and messages? Do you feel them trying to get your attention but you don’t know where to start?

Are you going through powerful spiritual initiations and healing portals?

Do you want help anchoring the codes and transmissions that you are receiving so you can integrate and live them fully?

Receive 3 Shamanic Healing sessions with me. I’ll help you connect with your guides, receive healing energies, messages and transmissions, and anchor them into your life.

>>>Get started by booking a consultation here.

Q: Why is a consultation required to book Shamanic healing sessions?

A: I personally interview all potential clients to make sure we are a great fit to work together. A consultation gives me the opportunity to assess your healing needs so I can offer the best support for your path. If for any reason I believe another practitioner or offering would be a better fit for you, I will make a recommendation or referral accordingly.

Many blessings,

Shamanic Past Life Wisdom Retrieval: I Remember Atlantis

I remember Atlantis.

I remember the fall most vividly, but I remember some of the circumstances and power struggles that lead up to the devastating end.

I remember soaring crystal pillars and smooth floors that hummed with power. I remember the beauty of the temples and the elegant architecture of precious stone.

I remember my studies as a young priestess, my growing awareness of different factions and philosophies, and the unease that grew as I progressed on my path of service.

I remember when I was initiated into the role of high priestess, my mentor counseled me to be very careful. She told me to remember the teachings I had received in the right use of power, and to use the influence of my position to protect the safety of my people.

I remember walking through a vast hallway when I was suddenly brought to my knees by discordant sounds screeching through my bones. I covered my ears in pain, but the sounds were inaudible vibrations ricocheting through me.

I got up and ran into a massive room with towering crystal columns and giant orbs that crackled and sparked. Something was very wrong. Two of my priestess sisters were already there, and the three of us took our places together to drop into a trance and assess what was wrong with the energetic architecture of the grid.

I felt it immediately. I saw where someone had tried to magnify an output of power from one of the generator stations, and the entire grid of Atlantis was fluctuating wildly as it tried to compensate for the imbalance.

I heard a deep cracking sound, and opened my eyes to see fractures running the entire length of the crystal columns, all the way up to the orbs at the top.

My heart broke. My sisters and I stood and raised our hands to try to offer what support we could in one final attempt to stabilize the grid. I remember singing cords of light into the glowing crystal pillars.

But the rumbling started, and soon after, the waters came crashing in, and Atlantis was no more.

——

This memory surfaced many years ago in the early days of my awakening. It served as an important part of me claiming my own power and integrating the remembered wisdom teachings from other incarnations into my current life and service.

And honestly, I had kind of forgotten about it until February, when I received a healing session from my Shaman mentor and it all came flooding back. (Along with a memory of the fall of ancient Sumer, but that’s another story.)

The heartbreak and despair I felt from the fall of Atlantis is rippling through the timeline to the heartbreak I feel watching the misuse of power and political upheaval now. I am once again a wisdom keeper who has pledged her life in spiritual service, and I am trying my best to support my community and protect the right balance of power to prevent the fall of another civilization.

It all feels a little too familiar.

But it also feels different.

This time feels different, because it’s not just a small group of wisdom keepers who are trying to hold the balance. This time, it’s much more out the in the open. The awareness of that imbalance is spreading, and more and more people are standing up to protect the right use of power.

I have lived many lifetimes of service in the mysteries. I’ve lived through the collapse of multiple ancient and powerful civilizations. Part of my practice has been to draw upon the experience of other incarnations and to integrate that knowledge, so I can move forward from the fully empowered wholeness of my eternal spirit and all the wisdom I have gained through all my lifetimes.

I am once again feeling some deep inner re-structuring, and it’s a bit uncomfortable, but also feels very powerful and clarifying.

And I know other people are remembering powerful mystery teachings, too.

This is a time when we are all being called upon to embody the knowledge not only of our current incarnations and the teachings we have received this time around, but to implement the hard-earned wisdom, codes and spiritual technology we carry from all of our many lifetimes.

I feel strongly that we are living through a very powerful portal, where we get to put this wisdom to work and achieve different outcomes than we have in the past.

But it requires courage, deep alignment and skillful application of this wisdom. It requires us to not only remember and feel the echos of our other incarnations, but to integrate the wisdom codes and transmute them into our empowered actions in this Earthwalk.

Friends — The mysteries are alive and asking to be remembered.

Maybe you've felt some recognition or knowing that doesn't make logical sense.

Maybe you've felt your bones hum like tuning forks when you hear the name of an ancient people.

Maybe you hear the whispers of your ancestors, and the lineage holders and wisdom keepers, beckoning you to listen, and feel, and remember.

What spiritual technology wants to awaken within you? What codes and mysteries are asking to come alive in your consciousness so they can once again serve in the world?

If you feel the call and resonance of this story and know that there is remembered wisdom awakening within you —

I am offering 1:1 support with Past Life Wisdom Retrieval.

If you’re ready to fully awaken and embody your inner knowing —

If you feel the remembrance of wisdom from other incarnations and you want to anchor it into this lifetime —

If you know that you are here to be a force of healing, transformation and creation in the world —

If you’re ready to master the spiritual technology, codes and mysteries that you’ve inherited from all your lifetimes —

How Do You Honor Your Guides? Archangel Michael

Saint Michael Feast Day: Sept 29

I'm a firm believer that any day is a good day to make an offering, anytime is a good time to pray, and it doesn't really matter what you say as long as it is true and sincere.

That being said, working with the specific frequencies of your guides can be particularly helpful to honor them, attune to their wisdom and most effectively receive their medicine.

For example, if you were to pray with Deer spirit, making an offering of meat and requesting support with cultivating courage and fierce boundaries would not be in alignment with the wisdom path of Deer. Your prayer would still be heard, but it might be answered by another guide, or in a way you didn't expect, or less efficiently.

If you were to pray with Deer spirit, make an offering of flowers and greenery, and request support for attuning to your higher guidance and divine wisdom, and receiving subtle communication with spirits in the liminal spaces, that prayer and offering would be very aligned with Deer wisdom path.

When making prayers and offerings to your guides, it's a good idea to consider the nature of their wisdom path, any important correspondences (colors, foods, items, songs, things they like) and days or times of year when they are most powerful.

Let's look at an example:

Saint Michael's feast day is approaching. He is one of my patron guides. Do you also work with Archangel Michael?

Here are some ways to connect with this powerful energy.

Archangel Michael

Feast day: September 29
Color: blue
Stones: sapphire, blue topaz, kyanite
Energy: Divine Protector, Peaceful Warrior, Defender of Faith, "Who Is as God."
Wisdom Path: Guardian of the Blue Ray (the First Ray, the beginning of creation that emanates from the Void), Bearer of the Sapphire Flame, Keeper of the Sapphire Temple.

Here is a prayer to connect with Saint Michael:

"Archangel Michael, I invite you to please be with me now. Please support me in aligning with truth, integrity, faith, devotion, fidelity and righteousness. Please help me to calibrate my personal will to Divine Will, so that I may know and act in right alignment with Divine Will. I ask for your support to help me be courageous, to help me live as a Peaceful Warrior of the Light. Please help me to live by and uphold the Laws of Love in my life, for the highest and greatest good, for the benefit of all beings, everywhere.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the blessings."

I hope this supports you in connecting with your guides more powerfully!

Intuitive Super Powers

What are some aspects of your intuition that you would like to cultivate?

Seriously, please share :)

A couple of years ago, I came across an old journal of mine from when I was about 13 years old. When I opened it to reminisce, I saw that the first page contained a list I had written, detailing the super powers that I wanted to have. I had organized them into categories and made notes about the possible combinations of these super powers and how they might inform and support each other. Here is the list:
ANIMALS
-Being able to talk to them
-Take on an animal shape
PLANTS
-Making medicine/using them for healing
-Helping them grow
PEOPLE
-Reading minds/telepathy
-Healing
-Giving energy
OTHER
-Flying
-Time travel
-Seeing future (drawings, poems, songs, visions, dreams, other methods of divination)
-Communicating with other worlds

The fact that I wrote this list as a 13 year old (and more importantly, the fact that I now practice most of these, and many more) blows my mind. From a fairly young age, I had a clearly defined idea of the “super powers” that I wanted to cultivate, most of them related to developing my intuition. Over the intervening years, I forgot about this list, but I somehow ended up finding the appropriate circumstances, teachers and guides to help me awaken these intuitive abilities.

So I invite you to consider what super powers you have always wanted to cultivate. What intuitive abilities do you wish you could awaken? Maybe your psychic vision is very clear—would you like to grow your clairaudience as well?

Please share--I am genuinely curious! And if you feel called, please join me on Sunday, March 26, for my workshop on Sensory Intuition. Register here.

Your Intuitive Birthright

“Wow, you are so intuitive! You must have just been born with that ability.”

I regularly hear some variation of this comment from clients, students or people who get a taste of my work for the first time. My answer usually begins with, “Well, yes and no…”

We are all highly intuitive beings. Each one of us was born with the ability to access this innate knowing.

When you first entered the world as a tiny human, you arrived with no filters in place. You experienced everything as a clear channel. Completely open to all sensory input, you made no distinction between how this information came into your awareness. Touch, emotion, sight, thoughts, taste, energy, sound, vibration… you experienced them all without any preconceived notion of what was “real,” or any hierarchy of some senses being more valid than others.

As you grew older, you started to become aware of how you received information, and maybe felt that you “weren’t normal.” Maybe your family was afraid when you told them that you saw beings that “weren’t there,” or when they found you having conversations with thin air. Maybe your sensitivities were dismissed as invalid, or no one believed you when you shared what you intuitively knew to be true. Maybe you were diagnosed with anxiety, or ADD/ADHD, or some mental health condition. Maybe you were medicated.

You still felt the vibrations and were sensitive to the thoughts and energies of other people, but without the consistent validation from those around you, you began to let this intuitive awareness fade into the background. You built your understanding of the “real world” based on the commonly understood five senses. You allowed yourself to become numb to your intuition.

But these hidden parts of ourselves don’t always stay quiet in the background. Maybe you always knew that this innate sense was still there, waiting to be revealed. Do you find yourself knowing things that you couldn’t possibly know? Are you seeing, feeling and sensing things you can’t otherwise explain?

Is your intuition waking up and demanding that you claim that which has been yours since birth?

Join us for the ongoing Sensory Intuition class series (first class takes place on Sunday, March 26th) and learn tools and techniques to reawaken your innate intuitive abilities. Now is the time to cultivate the knowledge and skill to easily and gracefully access your inner wisdom. There are no prerequisites for this class, and all levels of energetic experience are welcome.
