About Path of the Heart
Path of the Heart came into being as a sacred offering from my Soul to those who recognise this Spirit gathering as their own. The vision first stirred during my years of training as a Shamanic Practitioner, held within a beloved soul family we came to know as the Path of the Heart Clan. We were brought together by Spirit, each carrying our own medicine, each walking one shared fire.
As my training drew to completion, I felt this painting waiting.
It longed to hold the essence of what had been initiated, lived, re-membered and awakened, and also the stories still unfolding. The wise ones and the animal kin gather here not as symbols to be intricately explained, but as presences to be felt.
Each carries a thread of teaching. Each waits for your heart’s recognition.
Feel the medicine. Feel the quiet power of belonging to this Circle of Life.
What is the Path of the Heart calling you to remember within yourself?
