Juicy Alive! Your Creative Soul cards make me feel like I'm not alone. They restore something in me...make me feel sane again. ~ T. Bolen, 2013

Yes folks I am back to drawing Creative Soul cards (aka 'lefties) again. What was the inspiration? Well, visiting a friend and having her tell me with great passion and conviction that I needed to carry on and create more Creative Souls so that they can get out there and do their stuff.  Over the years the 'lefties' have inspired me and so many others!

This time it felt like re-visiting old friends, but seeing them in a new light; a more truthful and gentle light where flaws and wrinkles are okay because we've been through so much together; tough times and thrills and tears and we have survived and even thrived. We can be real and that's what matters.

Lefty cards and prints are available for purchase in my Etsy Shop.

What is Your Gift?

Kathy Crabbe, Ande was ready for any adventure, 2003, mixed media on paper, 8x10”. 

This blog post has been a long time in coming folks, so thank you for caring. There have been many tears,  many goodbyes and much love and prayers shared with family and friends in the last two months, but as Denis says, "life goes on" and so it does, and so too does this blog.

I said goodbye to my birth mother Sally (I'm adopted) and to my Grandad (her father) over the last couple of months and I also spoke at my Grandad's Celebration of Life.

But, my news is, that my newest project is to be dedicated to Sally. It is both new and old; a project near and dear to my heart since it's infancy in 2000. As you may have guessed from the artwork above, my newest project involves the 'lefties' as they are affectionately known, or more formally as the Creative Soul Cards.

These cards meant a whole lot to Sally and me and to Sal's New Moon group of best friends. One Christmas I presented Sal with a New Moon Kit based upon my New Moon Class and we meditated, pulled cards and shared intentions at the New Moon during that visit. Afterwards Sal started her own New Moon Circle with several good female friends. The 'lefty' cards were a big part of this.

At Sal's Memorial I met up with these friends and we cried and talked a lot about Sally. Her friends told me how much this spiritual group meant to Sal during her last months and how much the Creative Soul Cards touched all their hearts and encouraged them to write and share their hopes, dreams and intentions with each other every month.

So, I'd like to dedicate these Creative Soul Cards to you, dear mum and I will continue to teach this class and share these cards with others just as you shared yourself with us by showing us what love is and how to be in love. That was your gift and this is my gift to you.

So, stay tuned folks, I'm working on getting this Creative Soul Deck published along with a guidebook. It will probably accompany my class which I currently teach online but would like to teach in person next.

P.S. The Creative Soul Card pictured above, "Ande was ready for any adventure" was one of the last cards I pulled for Sally and so it was fitting that Ande turned up today for my first "Lefty" post. And, just like Ande, Sal was ready for any adventure and I trust she's on her next big adventure right now.

This month's New Moon Mascot or Muse is Creative Soul Card® ~ "Gerrard". If you'd like to choose your own Creative Soul Card please check out these thumbnails on my Flickr page (you'll only see part of the image, until you click on it).

Gerrard's Message: Sometimes it's when we're not paying attention that the magic happens.

Affirmation: I listen. I am open to all of life's possibilities.

Join the conversation!

Every New Moon we will come together in the Creative Soul Circle (a free social network created by me for women around the world to enhance intuition and creativity) in our Moon Musing Group for a shared focus group meditation. The purpose is to raise power together as a group to help manifest our intentions, wishes and dreams in a powerful way and to truly BE the change we seek in the world.

Cards and prints of Gerrard are available here.
