about me
My etsy
www.fromthefigtree.etsy.com
I never was a dancer, in fact I was a bad dancer, I hated the ballet classes my parents made me take. I went to parties and was confused by the strange footsteps and patterns my friends used when they danced. Soon after the birth of my son I had my first bellydance experience and my love of dance took off like wildfire. My very first class was a Turkish Dance Class offered by Gayle Wayne, soon after I found Celena (Awesome and complex zill patterns) who works in Egyptian, Soon after, I dived right into Indian Classical, Tribal, and modern fusion. I still take classes, and I love to get into workshops. I studied for a year and a day (and continue to do so) with Come as You Are Coven in Berkeley and I am Ordained as a Priestess of Sacred Dance in the Wildflower Tradition of Caya Coven in 2009. You can find me every full moon in Campbell (South Bay)using dance to uncoil the sleeping serpent. For more info check out www.cayacoven.org!
One finds an ancient flask, and from its spout
A spirit, now restored and much alive, pours out.
A thousand slumbering thoughts, dismal chrysalids
within the shadows, trembling like new butterflies,
Which set themselves to fly, as crumpled wings unfold
In tints of azure, frosts of rose, and flakes of gold.
~Baudelaire "The Flask"

Finding animals...
(blog entry)
Animals have their way of finding you when you are in need of them. A few days ago I had the opportunity to help a bird that I've since named Rookie because rookie is just fun to say and rolls off the toungue. She/he must've fell from her nest bec...

I didnt realize that we had an eclipse last night for one, it was over asia anyway, but still I had a good day. We drove down to several beaches on the coast and I dropped by serpents kiss in Santa Cruz. The shop is really great! I got some uncrossing incense and house blessing, some oils n such. They have some bellydance stuff, which I really dont need anymore of right now :P Then I burned the spellstix right about the time of the eclipse, flipped on the news and there they where talking bou...

We are also going to try and take a flight over to Kauaii to visit Molly and see this awesome island for a day or two. I am SO blessed to be able to go back to this wonderful place, this time I plan on looking at land and homes on the island and also see what I can do there to make money. I will also get to see Dana&Dave and the kids (teens no...

A few days ago I had the opportunity to help a bird that I've since named Rookie because rookie is just fun to say and rolls off the toungue. She/he must've fell from her nest because while her wings and legs arent broken, they are hurt. If she had stayed in the nest for another week or two, she might have been ready to fly. Now she might not ever be able to fly because of all the large feathers she lost. So far she has been...
