Tapestry

Washing clean

the hands of Mother Mary gleam

glistening in the sun

She understands what we have done

and now we are here to have un-done

wearing our robes of archetypal wisdom

we are here for the big, long reveal

when the robes fall 

and we stand innocent, naked, shining

ready to cleanse body, mind, soul

free of the violent chaos on mother earth

our bodies have remedies for the 

cultural poisons

we were forced to swallow

Mother Mary breaks our chains by 

administering just the right doses 

of unconditional love

she guides us to the sacred caves

She blesses priestesses of the old ways 

that are being renewed by devoted 

healing intentions

It is time for us to tell the story

to weave the finer details into this

global tapestry

Consent is leading the way.

impression

 your lips 

make their impression on mine

I hold the kiss

in an eternal bliss

knowing your heart beats to the

rhythm of this destiny

my arms still want you, ache for you

during moments when you are near enough 

and far enough to bless my thoughts

and no fantasy could live up to our reality

like a tingling up your spine

becoming the energy pattern that liberates you

beaming with a love that creates you. 

see the grace

I see the grace move through you

like waves like water like wind like fire

I see the grace move you to move

like fire like plants grow like water flows

I see the grace inhabit you

filling up your form with light

I see grace integrating your shadow

blessing the past and bringing you into the present

I see the grace becoming you

and you move with it into each space

into each relationship

into each moment with ease

I see the grace enrapture you when you

see it in others,

in how they move like water and embody the fire

I see the grace light up your face

as lightning thunder rain storms and your understanding

of this force within, this force from below and above and in between

it comes when you need it, you begin to count on it

cultivating patience and humility 

to be the vessel that you are. 

new prayer

 May the peace I receive from Spirit ripple out to those needing it, may healing assistance follow that with as much power to cleanse and uplift as possible. With gratitude and humility, may I transmit healing energy at all times from the loving ancestors, from Angels and Loving Guides and all the powerful unseen forces of unconditional love. May I stand in the stream of this beauty surging through my own self, sharing it with other living beings.

Revisiting Spirit and Soul

 I do not quickly accept the definitions of certain metaphysical terms. I search within to check whether I agree with the words and explanations used. If I do not agree with what I hear, I redefine for myself. 

It occurred to me that perhaps what we call soul and spirit are not separate entities. Perhaps they are expressions of energy and consciousness that are intertwined within living beings. The soul may have records within itself of the imprint of identity and consciousness of the living being where it dwells. It can recall past lives, connect to the Akashic records, create and destroy soul contracts with other living beings and events etc. So, then the spirit is specific to the living being for this lifetime and has its imprint of identity and is contained within the breath that circulates through the body, oxygenating the blood, giving life to the cells that make up this particular incarnation's body and so on. When a being dies and the breath takes its final exit from the lungs, that is the extinguishment of that particular incarnate spirit being. However, both the spirit and the soul are eternal, since that spirit breath and imprint of identity for one incarnation is still recorded into the consciousness of the soul. The soul has a longer, more complicated memory. It contains memories of imprints and identities that stretch back to a certain beginning or initial birth. 

The life of a soul is akin to the life of a star; energy that manifests as a form that has a beginning and end, but the essence is eternal.

Bird Shadow

 Bird shadow.

time rests inside grains of sand

across multitudes of beaches

waiting to mix with ocean waves,

and be hurled against itself

repeatedly

until all has changed shape

repeatedly

so we too, become unrecognizable

to each other

due to molecules of time infused into

these grains of sand, and the

shadow of a bird

falls across the shore

reminding us then that we landed there

for some list of reasons

and yes

we still have our wings

Community Ministry service offerings

 Witnessing and Spiritual Counseling 

Sometimes we need to be deeply witnessed. Sometimes we need safe space held for us and then we can move forward. At times, we need Counseling alongside being seen and witnessed. At other times, we need more of just the counseling and not as much of the witnessing and being seen in our current situations. 

Having graduated from Cherry Hill Seminary a few years ago and having received the Community Ministry Certificate, I have been truly prepared to offer these services for clients. I can offer the Witnessing service and not give counsel around any issues. I can offer Witnessing and Counseling together as a package, or just counseling alone. 

What would a session look like?

For witnessing or counseling, I will meet with you in person or over video/phone call to assess where you are and what you are needing. A Witnessing or Counseling session is typically 50 to 60 minutes. Shorter sessions are available. 

To be witnessed, I will just ask a few questions to get started and will focus on listening to you, reflecting back what feels significant and in need of focus and clarity. The conversation will move in an intuitive, safe manner.

To be counseled, I will ask some clarifying questions and create safe space for this work as well. Once I hear from you and get clarification on what you need, I will then offer counseling advice. I am not necessarily giving you specific answers, but I will provide guidance that is relevant to your situations. 

Please get in touch through www.imayasmodalities.com if you are interested or have more questions. I am happy to assist you.
