2019 BOOK EXCELLENCE AWARD winner in the category of Mind-Body-Spirit for high quality writing, design, and overall market appeal!
Creating the Journey … This trilogy began when my guides requested me to create visualizations for the chakras. I started writing some visualizations and quickly decided to make it a fictional adventure which, after a couple of years, turned into three books!!! I began by pulling together chakra information, the issues they govern, and their archetypes. The imaginary realms that you travel through and the guides, animals, elementals, crystals, and companions that you meet on the journey reflect this information. I wanted the encounter with the spirit guides to be an intimate and casual one, so I decided to channel the spirit guides myself to understand them better, and bring forth messages and meditations from them into the story. These guides ranged from ascended masters, archangels, angels, gods and goddesses, a Sidhe, and a Pleiadian. I channeled 74 guides and 122 meditations that will expand your awareness and abilities! I had already channeled 54 spirits of crystals (which I made also into a card deck), so that knowledge went into the story as well. As you travel with Astara Atwood (the main character), you encounter many characters that become friends that enrich your travels. Many of the characters you meet in the story are based on chakra archetypes and zodiac signs.
So, these are the basic elements that create the structure of the story. The story unfolded itself from this structure and started taking a life of its own, as I could feel my many guides joyfully create with me. The story is a colorful tapestry of metaphysical information, mystery, romance, and adventure woven together with the magic of love – the love for self, for family, for past life and current relationships, for your Higher Self, for Earth and the Divine. I painted the illustrations myself to capture the essence of the locations, guides, characters, and maps. This illustrated trilogy actually serves as a compendium of guides, crystals, elementals, and metaphysical information that all serve as tools for healing and discovering your inner magic. As you adventure with Astara, you witness her self-healing, discoveries, and transformation. Like Astara, you will realize you had collected all those treasures on your journey as well, and achieved your own spectacular transformation!
