It's the MUSE Issue! Let's Play...

Welcome to my spontaneous re-creation park!
O are you ready for the ride this moon?
No need to buy a ticket or stand in line
I am the slip and slide gateway through
The cement walls you may think surround you
Eternally here inside of you
Lurking between the leaves of your mind
As little eyes giggling at your apparent bind
For laughter has always been your free ticket to ride
Eternal re-fills you have inside
Portable
Bottomless
That face of you that is lit by the ridiculous
Completely transforming the o-so-serious
Yes, even the oooooo-soooooo-serious
No immunity here!
Sorry, wrong house!
My joy, shaking quaking your drama free
Ride the re-creation coaster of whimsy!
O, yes...your fears....right!
What if I do it wrong? What if they say, "so long!"
What if it doesn't come true? What if I can't unstick from this stew?
What if, what if...blah blah blah blithering
Blossoming beckoning burgeoning bursting
HEY!
WHAT'S THAT SOUND?
Listen
Do you hear?
Breathe in
Slow down
Empty
To magnify your senses
Opening to the world of wonder
Ever available at the Center in you
As you move even slower
Slower
Slow
Ahhh....YES!
Here you are!!!! 

WELCOME TO THE MUSE TEMPLE, 
your JOY has been waiting for you!
Don't worry; your mind, your worries, your judgments 
Will still be here by the door to pick-up at any point
But be forewarned, this is a transformative, drug-free joint!
Yes, let me serve you my funny little grin
Stay long enough and you'll start to naturally spin
And lose your reference points of being serious or stuck altogether
And you'll find yourself largely unaffected by the weather
Unpredictable blossoms of joy everywhere in this park
Hummingbirds rising out of the dark
Stilling your mind to open your heart
Yes
Move slower to vibrate faster
Be lubricated by not needing to know
The radiance of release is the afterglow
As your authentic expression steals the show
And you get down dirty to your inspired core
And you break out, RISE UP OPEN EYED
To the vast, uncharted, laughing skies
A rainbow kite, an intoxicating light
O one hell of a vibration raising sight!
Even sweeter than wine
When the divine child runs up your spine
And creation solutions suddenly align
And the fire of inspiration swallows all time
And in the eye of the storm, o Mama Mama Mi
You are calm, Centered as a Tree
An improbable jewel, graceful as chi
So let yourself leap, foolish free
CLAIM YOUR WAND, sparkle the sea!
OLI OLI OXEN FREE!!!!!
O do open the gates to my miraculous Estate
To lift your frequency to a Radiance that is no longer a match to whatever you were afraid of to begin with
Disempowering its hold on you and all potential manifestations in its wake
You are Pure Light for Goddess sake!
So feel the gold rush through your cells pour
And do what you came here for!
O what the hell are you waiting for?
And curious, what's that funny little door?
Hey, anyone want to play?
I gotta move, spontaneously steer
O Hummingbird, butterfly, dolphin, deer
O LET'S GO!!!!!!!!
Woosh zoom woosh zoom
A mojoyama manga tan toom
Busting out of this room
Sayonara to the known, the predictable
Wherever you've been before
Feeling the pulsation of new life course through your veins
Re-creation service here never ever wanes
Joyfully here at the Muse Park in you
If you open to see
That you've always been free
You've always been free
But don't take me too seriously
Or you'll lose me
Capiche?


To the One Heart,
Angie Banangie

Awakening the Inner Diety ~ Mantra, Yantra, Tantra

Intention: To bring together a circle of women to create a sacred container for sadhana (dedicated practice) that is rooted in Sri Vidya Tantra. Together we will commit to 44 days of individual and collective practice starting with the diety Ganapati.

Description:
In the female body, the point of concentration is at mooladhara chakra, which is situated at the cervix. Ganapati resides at the mooladhara chakra. This is where space and time unite and explode in the form of an experience. That experience is what one might call an orgasm but in tantra is called an awakening. I will guide you through yoga, bandhas (locks) and pranayama and various techniques at the level of the root to begin the process of "Awakening the Inner Diety." 

Date: Saturday, July 18 ~ 11am-5pm - New Moon
Saturday, August 1 ~ 7-10pm - Full Moon
Saturday, August 15 ~ 7-10pm - New Moon
Closing Circle ~ Date TBD - Full Moon

Location: Sausalito (address upon registration)

Cost: $333 (includes in-person transmission and rituals, inspirational and instructional emails, personal guidance) Space is limited to 9.
