Page 197 - Dark Matter Women Witnessing
P. 197
Witnessing each person’s communion with Nature is vital. As people share their stories in a
safe, non-judgmental space, confidence in their embodied intuition strengthens. Listening
open-heartedly, we honour these liminal moments together, grounding our experiences and
making them more real. While sustaining a quality of intimate kinship in our conversations
with each other, we deepen our relations with all of Gaia’s creatures and kingdoms. In these
simple ways, we create sanctuary, for ourselves and for the Soul of the World.
Andrea Mathieson is passionate about restoring
our conscious communion with Nature by listening to
the spirit of the earth. Trained as a classical musician,
she began the Raven Essence project in 1995, creating
350 flower essences and writing two books, A Love
Affair with Nature and Gaia’s Invitation, Poems from the
Sacred Earth. A highly-skilled intuitive, Andrea
sometimes calls herself a ‘mid-life mid-wife.’ She offers
intuitive counseling, private retreats and sacred circles for women at her heritage home near Toronto.
