My Coming of Age Crone SoulCollage® Community Card

by

Honoring The Crone In Me Ivette Ebaen, SoulCollage® Facilitator, Ireland I never imagined that someday I’d be known as a Crone. According to Wikipedia: The crone is a character in folklore and fairy tales, an old woman. In some stories, she is disagreeable, malicious, or sinister in manner, often with magical or supernatural associations that can make her either helpful or obstructing. The Crone… Read More

Pamela’s Patterns

by

Not every workshop turns out to be a delight. When things don’t go according to plan, or boredom creeps in, to spice things up suggest we make an art doll. The word is like a koan as heads turn, minds still, eyes stare in disbelief. “Art doll?” a participant exclaims. “Why yes,” someone else chimes in. As I listen to a why not followed… Read More

Council Card To The Rescue

by

There’s no way around the law. I have to start from scratch to get my driver’s licence. Even though I have twenty years driving experience from California and New Mexico, here in Ireland none of that experience counts. I’m considered a Learner and have to take the written test, attend a driving school and pass the driving test. Yet it stands to reason since… Read More

Spiritual Practice and SoulCollage®

by

I don’t know about you, but I need reminders. Since I’m visually oriented I tend to remember images more than the written word or sounds. Ask me to remember a landmark and I’ll get you there every time. Because of my visual tendencies I’m making a deck of SoulCollage® cards dedicated to my spiritual practice. Cards that remind me visually that compassion rules, that… Read More

Imaging Advent

by

This morning when I drew my curtains aside to look at the oceanfront, the mountains and the island across the way had disappeared beneath the white of snow and clouds. What came to mind was the trek the Blessed Mother and Joseph made eons ago. I imagine the holy trio traversing hill and dale. Mary riding side-saddle on a mule, carrying the weight of… Read More

SoulCollage® and an Evening of Samhain

by

Samhain (sow-in), a Gaelic tradition and Celtic name, celebrates summer’s end and the end of the season’s harvest. Samhain commemorates the commencement of the death cycle. It is the time of year when the advancing darker winter months cause the earth to withdraw her bloom. All her siblings introvert. Nature shuts her doors. All visible forms of plant life collapse unto themselves. There is… Read More

Art Dolls: Pen Pals That Heal

by

Art Dolls Creating A Healing Response:   When I was a child I made dolls out of pipe-cleaners, clothes pins, hair pins, twigs, matchsticks, toothpicks, even a plastic spoon. I’d take a walnut shell and imagine it a tub, a boat, a crib for one of my teeny-weenie stick figures. I’d spend hours dressing their figures, binding their frames with strips of newspaper, blades of… Read More

SoulCollage® and the Misunderstood Shadow

by

  SoulCollage® and the Misunderstood Shadow   Many SoulCollage® participants fill their decks with beautiful, happy images, which are true of them, but hesitate when it comes to making a Shadow card that fosters change, transformation, and offers healing. During a recent workshop a client, J. M. takes me aside and asks if after class we can talk about a particular card he has… Read More

Make It Relevant: Make It SoulCollage®

by

  SoulCollage® Make It Relevant   Someone I loved once gave me a box of darkness. It took me years to understand that this, too, was a gift. Mary Oliver   Pain. We all experience it. No one gets away without it in life if we want to evolve spiritually. Pain, and seeing others in pain ripens the heart for lessons in compassionate humility…. Read More
