About Me
I am a spiritual artist who loves to work with nature. I also have posted some pictures of my work in my public picture gallery on this page.I also have a website called summerfirecreations.com and I would love to have you visit it. I was raised from birth in a pagan household and became a High
Priestess at the age of twenty-one.My mothers parents were registered gypsy who chose to settle in Iowa and make a home. My fathers parents were pagan and from Denmark. They ended up meeting in Iowa . They were both in their teens.My parents met at a pagan gathering out in the middle of nowhere Iowa.....and the rest is history. After having three girls and a boy and they were thinking they were done...Little ol me decided to make her entrance into the world. My Dad told me I was born with the pill in my hand and a smile on my face. I had a coven for awhile but life and schedules seemed to get in the way so for the past 8 years I have been doing the solitary path, other then that when time permits I hang out with an Iowa group called I.O.W.A.N, also known as Iowa Organization of Witches and Neopagans.I am also on the committee for PPD (Pagan Pride Day) a celebration that is being organized in Iowa to make others aware of our beliefs. I am a member of The Priestess Academy. I tend to walk more with the Goddess than the God but we all know it takes two to tango.....Lets see...I play bass guitar as an outlet, my first passion is art, I love painting on canvas and I design captured clay fairies in jars. I am very honest and expect the same from my friends. I Love anything about the outdoors and my favorite time of the day is the night time. I have read tarot for about 35 years.
Music
I like a wide variety and it depends on my mood.Mainly rock and roll from the 60's. 70's and 80's
Movies
If I had enough time in my life to actually sit down and watch a movie it would most likely be a chick flick
TV
I dont watch t.v. alot although I will admit to being an American Idol Junkie. Most of my time is spent doing art
Books
I have a fascination for old poets. Rubert Holmes is one of my favorites and a very hot guy in his time I might add. I also enjoy anything spiritual that helps me advance more in my knowledge of the craft. And every once in awhile I will sit down and read a mushy book but that is very rare
Likes
I love to dance.I feel like a butterfly on the dance floor.As an artist I obviously enjoy my work. I am in love with the fact that I can get lost inside my art and go places without ever leaving my house. I love being around people with a fun sense of humor...the kind that bring you up and dont dampen your day.The kind of people who make you laugh when your whole day has been shitty. The kind of people who won't bail you out of jail but will be sitting beside you saying damn that was fun :)
Dislikes
Dishonest people and people who think their way is the only way or people who put themselves on pedestals and look down at others...all these kind of people I don't let hang in my social circle nor would I want to hang in theirs
Vices
Besides chocolate, sometimes a woman can't reveal........there's alittle secret inside every woman
Virtues
My spiritual side
Heroes
You have to believe in yourself or no one will believe in you......so in that way I am a hero to myself....my other hero is my goddess who guides my way

The pastor whose prayer Sarah Palin says helped her to become governor
of Alaska founded his ministry with a witch hunt against a Kenyan woman
whom he accused of causing car accidents through demonic spells.
This pastor forced this poor woman out of her Kenyan village by
accusing her of using her demonic witchcraft to cause car accidents. He
accused her of being a witch just because she practiced
fortune-telling. This man still brags about it!
Now, it is an individual's choice which church they go to, but given
Sarah Palin's blatant disregard for the separation of church and state,
I find this very worrisome. Does Ms. Palin advocate the persecution of
witches?
Back in May a Florida teacher performed a magic trick for his students
that involved making a toothpick disappear, and was subsequently
accused of wizardry and fired! With Palin as VP or even President, such
happenings could be just the beginning. A link to that story can be
found here: http://oddculture.com/2008/05/06/florida-teacher-fired-for-wizardry/
Ms. Palin's church also believes that the rapture is an "ecological
problem", that critics of President Bush will go to hell, that Alaska
will be a refuge for people in the "end times" after the Rapture, and
that the War In Iraq is actually a spiritual war over the Christian
faith and that Jesus has called on believers to die in support of that
cause. This on top of its support of the "pray the gay away" program.

I do not want my vice president to accept witch-hunting. And I
certainly don't want my vice president to believe that the war in Iraq
is some kind of Christian crusade!

I am a small town pagan artist and I am having a problem getting people to my website. I am needing people to visit it and look it over and let me know about site arrangement, the art, and the pricing. Being in a small town in the biblebelt is very tough....there is not alot of places that I can vend my art...So please visit my site and please please please tell your friends about my site.... It's Summerfirecreations.com Thank you sooo much ...Summerfire
Living in Iowa and watching it float around and still having more rivers go out of there bank is so depressing....to go anywhere you have to take trips completely out of your way if at all, you turn on the t.v. and all you hear is about sandbagging efforts. Its like the universe has gone into complete chaosis in this state. The camping spot, where next weekend Iowa pagans were to celebrate Summer Solstice is completely underwater. My camping spot in July is completely underwater and the rangers are saying its going to be at least 60 days before the park is usable. ....I wish the rain would stop......enough of this already
I feel like I have been living in my art room lately........so many things in the summer to get ready for....I do hope that when the sunrises........there is actually some sun instead of rain because I would like to go outside and hang with my Goddess and regroup........this rain is such a pain in the butt.....I am ready for a few days off from it
Merry meet!
I live down by Albia. So nice to see someone from Iowa here!
I didn't know there were any events in state, so I would love to hear about them! Thanks.
