Journey With Aradia
And the journey begins…
Well, growing up it was never hard to tell that my identity leaned a bit more towards the "black sheep" category. My interest weren't exactly the same as the other girls on cheerleading team. Which never really bothered me much. I liked that I was different, and over the years that just became more and more prominent. Leaning into whatever ignited my inner child. Always curious, constantly questioning. With so many questions spiritual journey With an insatiable craving for knowledge on how to better myself and the lives of those around me, my craft is constantly evolving. As years go on I have honed in on a few specialties. I am an artist, an intuitive energy worker, a certified Reiki Master and in the process of becoming a Life & Wellness Coach. In my Reiki sessions, my goal is for you to tune into to your souls purpose. In my art, I strive to help bring comfort to the uncomfortable. To ponder the things that we try to not think about.
Intentional Terrariums
I find oneness in nature. Since I was old enough to drive I've always had a to go bag of art supplies in my trunk along with my hiking boots and a hammock. If I'm not mining for minerals, you'll find me collecting flowers and mushrooms. I try my best to forage or repurpose all of my supplies, from the bones to the moss and every crystal in between.
I am a firm believer of "No Bug Left Behind", this means I use grade A and A2 insects. Some friends may have lost a foot or an antenna on their travels to their forever home, but like all of us deserve to be loved.
All pieces being unique and custom to the soul of the friends in them, I DO NOT charge extra for commision pieces. I would rather the piece be crafted for the owner. I take time to talk with you so I'm able to get a read of your energy along with details that will help connect yours and your new friends soul.
I use all organic matter in my terrariums, the only artificial thing you'll come across throughout my pieces are my little friends from Hayao Miyazaki film, Princess Mononoke. Each movie carrying its own beautiful message, The Tree Spirits characters are children of Old Trees. When seen throughout the film symbolizes that the forest is healthy. They make perfect companions for the different spirits in my terrariums. I like to think they help the insects feel at home in their new environments.
