I wanted to share how wonderful this class has been for me in both my art and self discovery. During the twenty-two weeks of collage and study, I followed along and not only did a journal of collage work based on each Tarot card but also did some journaling where I wrote my own interpretation of the imagery and symbols that I put together. I enjoyed the process of gathering the imagery up for the collage and learning much more about the card from what Stephanie shared in the group with us. I loved the support of the other members when I checked in and even when I did not have time to do that, I still completed the class all the way to the end. I would also recommend this class to anyone who wanted to learn more about the Tarot in a creative method. The only thing for me that was sad is when the process ended. I found doing this really reinforced my own creative process and even reflected in my art as well as in the women’s Oasis group that I run at my studio. Stephanie is a powerful teacher and I am looking forward to doing another one of her classes in the future.

Death is but a deep sleep upon which when we awake we find that this life was only a dream….
I am the Seed of My Becoming Self
I am the seed of my becoming self.
I am the roots connected to the Source.
I am the buds and flowers bringing forth the fruit of my dreams.
I am the branches reaching for my full potential.
I am the tree of my tomorrow.
Each thought is a seed that I plant today that brings forth the tree of my tomorrow.
As I cling to the roots of the Source by which all life flows, the tree of my self will be strong healthy and stand tall with my branches in the heavens and my roots in the earth.
I am the seed of my becoming self.
It is that Wisdom, which leads me to the place that I need to be and calls me to climb the next mountain: to spread my wings: to forge the unknown landscapes.
It is that Wisdom which tells me to listen to my own being and hear the voice of authenticity, to act according to my own truth.
It is that Wisdom, which says that life is a journey and that I am being brought forth on that journey to find what is Truth: to seek love and peace on my Life Path.
It is that wonderful Wisdom that gives me the eyes to see, the ears to hear, and a new vision to live.
I listen to my inner Wisdom as it speaks and I heed Her calling which whispers and tells me to prepare for something new: brings me a new vision, new hope, and a new promise.
My Meaningful Morning Practice
My mornings begin at 4:30 waking up with my husband. I have my coffee with him and do my journaling. This is when I come up with my greatest ideas during that journaling time and implement them that day.. It could be an idea for a creative project, something I want to share in my blog, Face book group, a meditation that I want to focus on that morning or just a new class that I want to do that week with my students..
I listen to an affirmation while I am getting ready for my morning meditation to change the state of my mind into a more receptive channel for silence. .
I sit down at my alter that I have set up for my mediation and light a tea candle;. Sometimes I also choose a particular song that is inspiring as a meditation and or a reading from The Essene Book of Days as a focus.
After I sit for my meditation, I cover myself with a shawl that is a symbol for enclosing me in spirit and being ready for my sitting. I meditate for twenty minutes and afterwards I do a ritual that I made up. I use oil on my forehead and say May my inner eye be open to truth beyond illusion. May I be consciously awake and aware. I touch my heart and say May my heart be open to love in all that I am and do. I touch my wrists and say May my hands be open to service of goodness. I have a glass of water on my alter and I drink it three times saying I drink deep the water of life and at he last drop of water I say I am one with the Source. Then I use the Affirmation Something exciting and good will happen today I look forward to it with expectation awareness and enthusiasm.
I have also started doing a blessing bowl where I add things I am grateful for that day.
I do a one –three Tarot card reading and journal about that and what it might mean for me.
After that I do my posting on my blog and update that.
While listening to an inspiring audio or video. I find that having a morning practice gives me a focus and intention for the day.
What is your morning practice and how do you use it to center for the day? What tools or ongoing methods do you use. If you do not have a morning practice, what would you like to do this year as a morning practice for yourself
