These Altar Cards are for creating sacred intention, transforming karmic imprints and amplifying affirmations to help you anchor new perspectives. This Digital Alchemy Collage Art explores themes, of the Sacred Feminine, Love, Soulmates, Sacred Sexuality, Soul Art, Grail Codes, Priestessing and the Rose Mysteries.
This work sources from my personal intuitive connection, with our collective archetypes, and serves to weave different elements visually and in the written transmissions that bring us back to a deep personal connection to the Path of Love and the Wisdom of the Living Rose within our own hearts. I have been personally walking this path since 2008, and that is when I made one of the first collages in this series called, “Sacred is the Rose”.
May these images bless your life and bring inspiration and healing.

A Note about my Art:
When I work with a Goddess archetype, I am usually drawn initially to the imagery, or some internal tug from my soul, and codes emerge, I often don’t research these archetypes before creating with them. Instead I follow a kind of intuitive thread within my own being, and let the imagery and descriptions emerge from this place. It’s fascinating when I go back later and do some research, the kind of connections I find. There have been some uncanny synchronicities between collages I have made and the historical and mythological knowledge, I find later that is already recorded about the archtypes.
The symbolism of the Sacred Feminine has made a long an ancient journey, and I find it to be a weave of consciousness that is like a vast transference through out time. Like a Rose Unfolding, each petal revealing something new, a new face, a new metaphor, a new archtype, a new vibration. Yet essentially when you get to the heart of the Rose, there is one core Rose Hip, that again holds all the seeds, for yet again another unfolding of a multitude of more Roses.
