SoulCollage® for Me...

SoulCollage® for me is a sacred listening practice. It is a very personal form of prayer that takes me to the place where soul and Divine Consciousness meet. From the hilarious to the terrifying, the complicated to the serene, each card is a gift, an offering from Me to me. The practice of SoulCollage® merges all of the senses into one fluid motion of inner awakening; sight becomes sound, becomes touch-opening memory to taste, smell and the mysterious sixth sense of intuitive knowing. Creation and creativity flow through each of us in all moments. SoulCollage®, like yoga, meditation, prayer, dance, song and deep uproarious laughter has the power to remind us of this truth. I have experienced every card to be Love at first sight (even the shadowy ones)…a love that grows as I blossom into the woman I am becoming, day by day, moment by moment.

Simplifying my life

As you have surely noticed, I have not added any new entries to this blog in a very long time!
For those who do not know, I have been pretty sick this year with MS. For now I have begun blogging again but just on one of my blogs. At this time, that is more than enough blogging for me to manage. I am still offering creativity coaching to clients over the phone and via e-mail if you are interested in that, I am also offering a new service Lev b'Lev Soulcollage Guidance...witnessing and scribing for you...for more info about either of these services, contact me laura@shinethedivine.com

I may start up this blog again in the future, but for now if you want to find out what's new, creative and spiritual in my life feel free to visit me at Shine The Divine: Creativity as a Spiritual Practice. You can follow that blog using the google follow icon.

Gentle steps always,
Laura

SoulCollage® Basics

"Each collage has the potential to take you to the very heart of your own soul; and deeper still". - Laura

SoulCollage® is a deeply revealing process of self-discovery developed by my teacher, Seena B. Frost. If you can flip through magazines, cut and glue –you can create an incredible dream-like collage. That is the first step. Next you must look closely and intuitively "listen" to your card. These are not random images you have chosen. They are subconscious aspects of your inner world. A trained facilitator can guide you through a sequence of specific questions. You, the creator of the card do not "talk about what you see in the card", instead, while in a deeply relaxed mind state, you become a vessel through which Universal or Divine consciousness is transmitted. The words are an expression of a truth that is both yours and that of collective consciousness. This is an integral part of the practice called "I am the one who...". In essence, a SoulCollage® card is a visual bridge, spanning the divide between spoken and unspoken feelings, thoughts and words; your consciousness and Universal Consciousness.

*SoulCollage® images are created from magazine photographs. They are for personal use only, and are never to be bartered or sold, showing cards to others or offering a card as a gift is permissible, however. I gratefully acknowledge the skill and artistic talents of all the many photographers and artists who have unknowingly inspired me to create my SoulCollage® cards.

SoulCollage® Suits

Traditional SoulCollage® Suits (developed by Seena)
Source- nothingness from which all is birthed
Companion-this is the energetic realm of the chakras. Each chakra has an animal companion or totem that you will discover.
Committee-this is the psychological element of the process. Your many "inner voices" speak from this place.
Community-these cards represent the people and pets in your life who support you-whether as living beings, or memories of loved ones. They may include people you have never met but have influenced your life and guided you at times, none-the-less.
Council-this is the archetypal realm. Unseen beings of collective consciousness who guide you with or without your awareness.
