I some how knew that my faith would show me the way
Since I can remember I have felt a connection to the Earth, Nature and the Beauty Within. My desire to be in the forest surrounded by the trees was a comfort for me. My Journey into the Nature Spirits and my own connection to the "Etruscan Civilization" (the Olde Religion), began as a result of my Father's death when I was nine years of age. My innate understanding within my "Soul" of the "Olde Religion", the mysteries of the shamanic Italian tradition is where I am called and although at the age of nine I did not comprehend or understand any of this, I found myself with this overwhelming desire to be in the woods surrounded by all of the elements.
During my grammar school years I would sit in class and draw sketch’s of flowers, especially daisy’s or the like, cartoons because they brought pleasure into my heart and still do, and as I sat in class not aware of anyone around me or what the Teacher was saying I found myself traveling into the outer dimensions on many different levels. (Of course this did not help my IQ…LOL). I struggled with this for many years not understanding what was happening and not feeling comfortable to talk about my visions to anyone else.
As my journey continued into adulthood challenged by all of this, I some how knew that my Strength in God and my faith would show me the way… I began to understand about my spiritual visions as a child and the connection that I felt. As I reflected, I looked inside of myself for the answers. I connected to my inner voice which guided me into the mysteries. My experiences into the unknown, the visions, images at different levels of consciousness, dimensions if you will, continued to bring me further into awareness of my own connection with spirit and my soul. This eventually led me to the indigenous ways of the Shaman. “A familiar”, “A knowing”, “That I had come home” and that this is my soul’s purpose in life and how I would be of service to the souls that have passed on and for the healing of others.
Thanks for listening and many blessings on your journey!
