About Me

CURRENT MISSION
To spead Joy and Radiance through Dance, Song and Drums

ABOUT ME
I am a lover of natural foods and herbs, an active outdoors-woman, a computer geek, a traveler and a ATS tribal dancer. I live in the city but have a cabin in a small mountain town where I am involved in the community. I am a Wiccan priestess, a witch and practice multiple Earth-based spiritual paths.

PHILOSOPHY

Laugh, Love, Dance!

My personal philosophy is one of non-violence, learning and tolerance. Caring and nurturing of human life and the planet Earth provides me opportunities to practice this philosophy in all that I do.

I live my life to experience love and joy. I believe that my primary purpose on this planet is to spread the beauty that is in all people including myself and to also to share the beauty of our planet Earth. Relationships with other human beings are the most important part of my life. Though these relationships, I learn about myself and grow in ways that expand my conscience and allow me to elevate to a great level to expand with even more love and joy and in turn share that with others. Thus, in my life and all of those around me, we travel through this existence in bliss. My relationship with nature is my sustenance and the source of my existence.
