In the Community: Joshua Creek Heritage Arts Centre

10/13/2014

0 Comments

 
Joshua Creek Heritage Arts Centre is a place of extreme beauty, creativity, inspiration, and, most of all, community. Set among the hidden fields of Oakville on the deceptively-rural road of Burnhamthorpe, I first heard about this special centre a few years ago, and was privileged to visit earlier this year. It is clear the minute you drive along the gravel driveway and see their organic vegetable garden, charming gallery (a renovated barn), welcoming house, lovingly-attended gardens, labyrinth, and pretty white gazebo...well, it feels as though you have entered another world. One which is far away from the hustle, bustle, clutter and noise of the suburban Oakville, and neighbouring Mississauga, borders.

Founded by Sybil Rampen, the owner, Joshua Creek Heritage Arts Centre is true to its name. A place devoted to the care and maintenance of the community by offering various creative media workshops, events, local heritage, and, well, you name it! Honestly, I can't say enough about this place. It really is a gem, and so very special.

This is why I feel SO honoured for my services to be offered in this sacred space of the city. Every month, we offer a group tea leaf reading, where around 6 guests meet (often enjoying Sybil's delicious baking!), and take turns having their tea leaves read. Every reading is around ten minutes in length, and there is always paper and pens for optional note-taking. It is always a relaxing afternoon in a tranquil setting, to share, speak and gain insight into our lives, questions and dreams.

For more information about tea leaf reading, you are welcome to click here.

If you are interested to attending a group tea leaf reading at Joshua Creek Heritage Art Centre, you are welcome to contact us.

Thank you for reading! Have a blessed day!
In Light,
Sarah

Seranade from the Universe

4/7/2014

How often we wonder if we are being heard. If our dreams, our hopes, and our desires are being heard. We ask. We listen, and we wonder. Sometimes we ask for a sign, and sometimes we don't ask for a sign at all. And sometimes, one appears when you least expect it, like a letter from Heaven, signed and sealed just for you.

One such sign appeared to me today, very unexpectedly. As I was going about my day, very busy, I "just happened" to turn the radio on, and nearly turned it off, since I didn't recognize the song. However, something stopped me, and what I heard surprised me!

It was a song called "Sara Smile," by Holland Oates! I'm sure that I have heard the song before, but didn't recognize it. It was a serenade from the Universe!

I am grateful for this beautiful sign from Heaven. It lifted by spirits, and made me feel at ease, comforted, and safe.

Thank you, God. Thank you, Universe. Thank you.

The Lady of the New Moon ~ The Maiden

6/10/2013

It's here!  The new moon!  When I first saw glanced at the evening sky during the last New Moon, the simple, yet elegant beauty honestly took my breath away.  Since the time of the Waning Moon, I have been quietly counting the days and nights, and knew the new moon would soon appear in the night sky.  And now, it's here again once more.

Before going any further, I would like to say that I am not attempting to sway anyone's opinion or degrade anyone's personal relationship with God, Goddess, Source, the Creator, whether personal or through a religious affiliation.  That is not what my blogs (and work) is about.  Rather, I firmly believe an open discussion with a pure intention of sharing and learning with each other is a wonderful idea; to share our hopes, delve into our interests and share what we know, helping one another to learn and grow, encompassing all and everything we desire, while helping this world be an ever-constantly better place by all our thoughtful expressions truly based in love.

Traditionally, in following the rich works of tapestry woven by the ancient Celtic homelands that I love, New Moons genuinely are fun and exciting times; they herald truly new beginnings.  As I previously mentioned in my other blogs, each phase of the moon represents a stage of womanhood: the Full Moon represents the Mother, full of bounty, abundance and the culmination of work, while the Waning Moon speaks to the Matriarch or Crone, a wise lady, a grandmotherly figure who, after much time spent in the world, has accumulated great wisdom from an expression of knowledge and experience, and holds the keys of transformation into abundance and beginning anew.  In following, we are now beginning at the start - the New Moon.  As always, one phase leads to the next step on the path we take that we all share together, in a wonderful cycle and journey of learning more about ourselves.

In the Celtic teachings, New Moons are representative of the Maiden Aspect of a
woman, the maiden aspect of the Goddess, of the Divine Feminine.  Among other meanings, this phase of the moon represents new beginnings.  This can be seen in almost any form or area of our lives: emotional, spiritual, physical and/or material.  She might represent the environment around us, and life situations we are experiencing.

The New Moon is a Maiden.  She is a young woman.  A girl.  A student.  She is learning; as yet, she has not enacted and experienced for herself the knowledge she has or is learning.  It can indicate frequent study.  Raging with passion and excitement for Life, the Maiden is ready to learn and practice all the things she is learning, to experience for the first time.  She is many people, and she lives in each of us, women and men alike.

Like our inner child who needs to rest, play and have fun to help us appreciate and enjoy everything Life has to offer, the Maiden is all this and more.  She also calls newfound wisdom to her table.  Just like the seasonal beginning of the year, the Maiden aspect of the Moon can also represent the season of Spring, and she breathes new life into her garden.  She represents the emergence of something new; who calls in all of us time to explore, to seek a new world, creative forces that are catapulting into form reality before our very eyes.  She looks at each of us, smiling with gratitude that we are ready to call forth the barge of truth, hope, honesty, enlightenment, love and understanding.  She wants so much to learn, to feel, to live.  She doesn't always know the answers the questions she is looking for, at least right now, however she is ready to seek, explore and experience, first-hand, the journey.  A traveller just beginning - sometimes inner and sometimes an outer route - she is ready to bring forth her self and ready to love, and live, in this, a world that is new, exciting and unfamiliar.  It is the experience which precedes wisdom.  Sometimes impetuous and/or impatient, she is at the beginning of her journey.  She has knowledge in form beginning.  As children have to come into their own in order to live and function as self-aware individuals in the world, so is she.  She is the Maiden.  In her journey, in her self, we can see ourselves reflected in her boundlessness, unending love, desire for fulfillment of dreams and perceived goals, ever-ready to try something new, to acquire more knowledge and understanding.  To learn more about who we are.

The ever-gently waxing New Moon, seen in the sky as a newly emerging glowing silver crescent on the horizon, brings with it a time of new beginning.  A wonderful time to release our heartfelt desires to God, the Goddess, the Source, the Universe, the God of your understanding and absolute Love and delight for the inner - and outer - manifestation of what is for our highest, and greatest good.  Lend your attention to the stars, to God, to the Creator, and to the soulful and heart-filled ways of the ancient moon that has attracted and offered a resilient reminder just how powerful our dreams really are - a physical manifestation of the Divine, Sacred Feminine Who lights our way, night and day.  Always remember your worthiness, your sacredness, and your innate and Divine birthright as a child of the One who conceived you before you were born here on Earth.  They love you, and so do I.

In Love, Gratitude, Starlight and Service
My Love,
Sarah

The Lady of the Waning Moon

3/10/2013

I love Celtic spirituality!  It is my heartland.  Anyone who knows me, even a little, will probably roll their eyes and and say with a sigh that I go around listening and singing Celtic songs (often in Gaelic), how many of my jewellry and clothes are Celtic-inspired, that I'm found reading amazing books penned by authors well-versed in the language and rich spiritual wisdom of those mysterious people, and wondering about the next time I will visit the South West of England that has SO many ties to some of the most enduring, enticing and thought-provoking stories about the sacred Isle of Avalon and her Priestesses, Merlin, King Arthur, his Queen Guinevere, the Knights of the Round Table and Camelot.  I have always loved these stories, and always will.  I just wanted to say this now since in this blog I talk about a phase of the moon known as a Waning Moon, and as I find such profound spiritual wisdom, love and understanding in my Celtic heritage and homeland, I feel inspired to share some of this knowledge in relation to some gold ol' fashion astrology (also something I love!).  I have many interests that I am so excited to share with you in my blogs, that I thought with the current Waning Moon this is a perfect time to write about this, combining my love of Celtic spirituality and esoteric wisdom with a current celestial event, which in itself, professes a mystical great power.

In the ancient Celtic times, nature was reflective of life itself.  People lived and worked in cooperation with nature and the celestial and seasonal rhythms.  Everything meant something, whether it was a reflecting pool, trickling stream, bleeting deer or circling hawk.  Likewise, the phases of the moon also represented intensive meaning.  Waning Moons were a symbol of the third stage of womanhood.  Often referred to as the Crone or Matriarch, this phase represents endings, transition, and times of change.  Just as the moon itself shrinks into the quiet starry sky, she tell us of the journey back to the beginning - from where we came, were will go, and where we will emerge from again.  Some may correlate this moon phase with the element of endings, however it's key to remember is that to the Celts (and for many people today, myself included), there are no real endings, but a simple change, a swiftness of movement from one area to another.  Transition brings with it a time for growth and renewal.

Also, the phrase "it's always darkest before dawn" can be taken into our context here.  What does this mean?  Is it implying that so-called "darkness" comes before carefree times?  In other words, after a transition there is a sense of bewilderment in the most fine sense - choosing to be happy and rejoicing in the attainment of our chosen path (in other words, our goals).  Makes sense, doesn't it?

I am fascinated by these ancient symbols; and I find it amazing exactly how relevant they STILL are in today's world.  Maybe it's because in a so-called modern world of racing against a mechanism (clocks, that is!) and in technology, we need this fusion of old, time-honed and honoured ancient knowledge to help keep connecting us to the most beautiful truth of all - that Life, as we live and breathe it, is fine, and a most gorgeous example of Divinity.

Night, true Mysteries of Life, Universal Oneness and compassion, Light-working, Understanding.  All of these words (and more) are used to refer to the Waning Moon.  It is also a time for honouring yourself, and the Divine Feminine in her role as a speaker or teacher, attainer, Wisewoman, healer, esoteric spiritual wisdom as well as honouring the elder members of our family and society.

Another thing to know when talking about Celtic endings and new beginnings is that to these people of old, their days did not begin in the morning, as it does for many, if not all, of us.  Instead, their day started at night.  Interesting, isn't it?  This is not correlating darkness with evil however - FAR from it.  Darkness is the quiet of night.  It is where the sleeping child rests, how we prepare for the following day.  It is where the next phase or transition of life begins.  It is our resting time, and where we get ready for new starts.

So, next time you are finding yourself peering into the beautiful, gently left-leaning silver crescent moon in the night sky, remember the ancient wisdom gracing the starry dome above you, and remember the respected Lady who always smiles upon, knowing the beloved secrets of your heart.

Open your arms to lovingly accept and graciously receive infinite blessings from the Universe.  We are always here together; we are never alone with Divine support that surrounds us.

Until next time, take care and God bless,
Sarah Adamson

Full Moon ~ Desires and Fruition

1/24/2013

FULL MOON: January 26, 2013


With the upcoming first Full Moon of January 2013, please know this is a wonderful time to manifest goals or desires you would like to achieve!  As you see the full moon rise and bathe in its beautiful light, it's important to take the time you need to re-assess where you currently are, and where you would like to be, with love and grace.  Knowing the Universe blesses us fully with love, wealth, health and an abundance of opportunities that can seal away all possible distractions from living our  best-ever lives and place us all on a path of perfect love, self-acceptance and freedom, we must forever and always ensure that Love is our first priority.  Why?  Love is the creative force that exists within ourselves, outside of ourselves, above us, below us, around us...in all trees, plants, people, animals, everyone and everything.  God's perfect Love made each of us, and we are all blessed with the incredible ability to create...and we do, every day of our lives.  Not only do we make our meals, travel to and from work, make phones calls to our family and friends, we also plan our future with ALL of our spoken and unspoken thoughts and words.  The absolute importance of monitoring our thoughts and words is integral, as these manifest, or come into fruition, in the form of experiences that we all have.  Law of Attraction?  Yes, absolutely.  And with the forthcoming Full Moon arriving in only a matter of days, now is a PERFECT time to imbue love into your thoughts, words, actions and life!  The Universe vibrates at a speed of Love.

In these days before the Full Moon, create a thoughtful intention, take some time to turn inward, to have an honest conversation with yourself about what brings your heart exuberance, joy, and heart-felt love and gratitude!  Know that it's ALWAYS the exact, perfect time to loving intend newness and inspiration in your life, and fill your every dream, wish, hope and desire with greatness!  You can even write your thoughts into a journal, to keep a written account, so you can easily reflect upon your all your insights, all the learning you have understood, gained, claim and stand before and within.  Between now and the next Full Moon, observe the wonderful changes that have taken place in your life!  Feel the changes in you as you walk along your path; see the changes; and KNOW that you ARE THOSE CHANGES.  Don't even assume these changes are a result from anything except YOU, and your willingness to accept a wonderful new way of being, of Life.

In the traditions of ancient Celtic spiritual beliefs, Full Moons represent the Mother, a woman heavy with child.  Representing the attainment or fruition of goals and ideals, Full Moons also symbolize caring and nurturing yourself and others, the acquiring of new understanding, and knowing that life situations can always change for the better.  Change is always transitory, and it can be glowing, radiant and embody EVERYTHING you need to alter or change your life in new, different, and amazing ways.  In other words, it represents a time or transition in your life which involves a form of creation.  Creativity here is key.  Like a cup overflowing, this is a time for learning, growth and relationships that are new, and that are being nurtured.  This can be related to something personal you would like to have and/or business-related.  It may also represent a child who is ready to be born, the launch of a new project, buying or selling your house, and the like.  It represents the fullness of life, burgeoning, bursting with promise, along with the wonderful opportunities that are being brought into this world.  Creating.  Creation.  Fertility.  Fulfilling. Attainment. Acceptance of newness and gifts. Achievement. Goal-setting. Standing, owning your life. Purely being.

As this phase of the moon is about fruition, achievement of goals, having all you desire, creation and creativity, it's a perfect time to embody all things you desire!  Explore some ways you can use the moon and her gentle, silver rays of hope and love for the creation of things you would like to happen.  Honour the Full Moon however you feel appropriate for you, and comfortable.  Meditation, manifesting through creative positive visualizing, writing and speaking positive affirmations, creating a vision board, honouring the Moon with a private ritual, or even using the practice of Feng Shui are only some ways to mark the anniversary of another Full Moon.  (more about these practices to follow!)

So, as you gaze upon the glowing sliver sphere in the velvet Saturday night sky, allow Her light to rest upon you.  Gently open your heart to the Powers that created you, and feel love radiate all around you.  The Lady of the Full Moon welcomes you into her loving embrace.  You would like to gratefully receive, so you can help yourself and others?  She smiles at you, and fondly whispers, "Dear one, you need only ask."


In Love, Service and Gratitude,
All my Love,
Sarah

Question: Knowing you are worthy beyond all perception, what will you manifest today?
