Merry Meet!
 Welcome to the domain of the Sage.
I am many things: mother, crafter, witch, lover, friend.
I have 3 children, and 5 cats.
My life is currently in transition.
I am passionate, creative, dramatic, emotional, and messy. I make no apologies for any of it.
I design, create, and sell my own beaded jewelry. It keeps me sane and is a meditation of sorts.
Check out my online store at http://www.elemental-spirit.com.
I read tarot cards. I teach others how to read them.
I don't tell the future. I try to make the most of the present.
I am the Fool.
I consider myself a spiritual person, but not a religious person. My sense of spirituality is in constant flux, and the code by which I live my life and my beliefs are in constant flux. Because basically, so is the world around me. If my beliefs don't change with what I know, with what I learn, then my life is stagnant and useless.
The world changes, and I do my best to change with it.
>>>>>> I reject your reality and substitute my own. <<<<<<
If you need to know more, check out my spiritual journal, sagefyre.

I will never delete my journal to avoid drama or confrontation. I may lock down a post, or remove it altogether if its gotten out of hand. But I'm here to stay.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
--Marianne Williamson, A Course in Miracles
 Leo is Lion Love

There's a dark side to each and every human soul. We wish we were Obi-Wan Kenobi, and for the most part we are, but there's a little Darth Vadar in all of us. Thing is, this ain't no either or proposition. We're talking about dialectics, the good and the bad merging into us. You can run but you can't hide. My experience? Face the darkness, stare it down. Own it. As brother Nietzsche said, being human is a complicated gig. Give that old dark night of the soul a hug! Howl the eternal yes! --Stuart Stevens, Northern Exposure

Then a woman said, "Speak to us of Joy and Sorrow."
And he answered:
Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.
And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.
And how else can it be?
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
Is not the cup that hold your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven?
And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?
When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
Some of you say, "Joy is greater than sorrow," and others say, "Nay, sorrow is the greater."
But I say unto you, they are inseparable.
Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.
Verily you are suspended like scales between your sorrow and your joy.
Only when you are empty are you at standstill and balanced.
When the treasure-keeper lifts you to weigh his gold and his silver, needs must your joy or your sorrow rise or fall.
--Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
