The Sisterhood of the Traveling Faerie

Artist: Tom Dunlap ArtbyDunlap.com

I recently had the distinct pleasure of participating in the AZ Goddess Conference at the Peaceful Spirit Enrichment Center. It was a first for me and I’ll certainly partake again and again. The camaraderie felt amazing, the love flowed powerfully and the combined feminine energy lit fires that will change the world.

While I’m sure the experience meant something specific to each woman present, for me it precipitated a huge life change. The conference concluded the day before my daughter and I set out on an adventurous, nomadic phase of our lives. At the beginning of October, my husband and I made the decision to forego traditional housing. While he served the country in Afghanistan, I stored our valuables, packed our van and bid sayonara to our abode as my daughter and I drove off into the sunset for places unknown. (Okay, well, it was like ten o’clock in the morning and we headed to my in-laws in Orange County, but that’s just not romantic…)

That morning, as we set sail on the waters of spiritual evolution, our van held so much more than our limited belongings. I felt and carried with me the souls, energy and love of the women who gathered at the conference. During our closing circle, I asked that the group hold our adventure, our experiment in walking by faith, in their hearts over the next few months. I asked that they set their intentions and prayers to surround us in safety, confidence, and love as we venture through the world in non-traditional ways. I asked that they honor us with their energetic affirmations as we set about changing our world and modeling that change for others. And, as groups of women are apt to do, they lovingly, unhesitatingly, obliged.

So, this is for all of you who hold us in your hearts and continue to pray for our safe passage. For all of the women who gathered that weekend and felt the power we created, held and delivered to the world together. This is for the women, the queens, the goddesses…The Sisterhood of The Traveling Faerie Tour…thank you. I affirm:

You all radiate your brilliance to create balance with the inner divine.
You all are perfect, worthy and prosperous.

We love you.
