Soul Singing with Anne Marie

Hi!  I'm Anne Marie, the creator of KaleidoSoul.com, and a SoulCollage®  facilitator in Massachusetts.  If you're just starting to sing your song with SoulCollage, this column is especially for you.

Suggestions for newcomers to SoulCollage:
 
  • Find a SoulCollage Facilitator near you.

  • Download the Getting Started with SoulCollage Workshop in a Box.

  • Visit KaleidoSoul and click on What is SoulCollage, SoulCollage Deck, and Making the Cards on the left menu.

  • Seena Frost is the one who created SoulCollage®. Visit Seena's website and see what four cards come up for you in the automatic reading, then read some of Seena's articles.

  • Read Seena's book, SoulCollage.

  • Listen to Seena's CD, Introduction to SoulCollage.

  • Don't forget to take it easy and always, always trust the processs!


    The Source is With You


    As I was thinking about what to write in this column about our Source Cards, I came across a quote from SoulCollage facilitator Alia Moore in North Carolina. She wrote this as part of a post on our KaleidoSoul Yahoo Group a few years ago, and it struck me on many levels:

    The Source, in an instant, ties all the various shadowy and light threads into one amazing tapestry that helps me remember my heart is always whole- even in its broken moments.

 I thought I would share this quote with you (with Alia's permission) in hopes that you will receive a new way to look at your own Source card, and your own relationship with Source.

If you haven't created a Source card yet, may you be led to just the right images for it, in your own time. If you have created a Source card already, may you journey with it in wonder and joy this week, and always. 

And no matter who you are, may you allow Source to bring you to your own perfect whole-ness.

SoulCollage® is a trademarked process created by Seena B. Frost.  For more information about Seena and the origins of SoulCollage,
please visit her website.



SoulCollage® cards are made either from one's own art or from images found in materials which have been bought by or given to the SoulCollage card maker. These collaged cards are used only for the cardmaker's own inner exploration. SoulCollage cards are not sold, traded, bartered, or copied (except as a back-up for the cardmakers own use) as is stated in the "Principles of SoulCollage®." Where SoulCollage cards are available to be seen by others, it is for the purposes either of demonstrating the SoulCollage process or of sharing the cardmakers' inner process in the context of community. SoulCollage® is grateful to the artists and photographers who make this deep awakening process possible and in all ways SoulCollage®seeks to be respectful of their rights.

As promised, we are featuring SoulCollage® cards from our readers in each issue. 

In keeping with this month's theme, each card below (and on the additional page) represents one SoulCollager's Source Card(s).

 
Because the Source Card is the One that holds the Many, it does not have a "voice" (I Am The One Who...) as do the other cards in your Deck.

If you are interested in this topic, you might find Seena Frost's article on "The Source Card and the One and the Many" helpful.
