Adele Sands.  I am a massage therapist, Reiki Master, and healing facilitator in beautiful Sedona, Arizona. Spirit blessed me with the opportunity to travel the world with my partner Dan for three months, from the first day of winter, 2003, to the first day of spring, 2004. The Journey took us to sacred sites in Costa Rica, Peru, Bolivia, England, Egypt, India, Australia and Hawaii. We were called to perform Rituals that focused on water healing as we connected to the sites through prayer and intention. Spirit, and a special dolphin pod in Kauai, gifted me with some extraordinary photos. Sedona gifts me synchronicity, flow, manifestation, and a glorious life lived fully in joy, love and gratitude.

I regularly do Water Healing Rituals when I travel, and I did take the sacred water (from about 45 sacred sites) with me to the UK in July. It got to be in crop circles, and I did a ritual (water transfer with prayers) at a beautiful country stream!

And at home in Sedona, the water sits in a circle of 200 crystal skulls, that are part of my healing practice. In the photo with me is my dear Medicine Hat paint mare, who came to me with the name "Sedona"!

Magic and miracles happen! Blessings from the heart,
Adele

I can't believe its been almost 3 years.  I am 61 years old and a grandmother of 3 young teenagers 12,13, and 15. I have been interested in the healing of the Earth and been active in Energy Healing like Reiki. I have been in women's spiritual groups since 1988 after my divorce. That's when I began my spiritual journey to gathered in women's circle once a week our teacher was Mary Weber (Cherokee) she passed away last year with her husband in a plane crash.

My brother George Delgadillo (a Bear Dancer - Tamale George) Passed away August 3 2004 on his way to Ceremony Bear Dance in the Mount Shasta area. Well after my brothers death is what brought me back to union of the sister hood and being a part of Healing the Earth.  Light and Blessings, Alice Leong

 
 

Alicia MerLady Bonnet: Water fascinates me as long as I can remember. It is my favorite delicious refreshing drink.  I love to sit by the ocean and listen to the waves breaking on the shore. I love dancing in warm rain showers. I love drinking a cool glass of spring water. The water caresses my skin, the weightlessness when swimming, the ease of movement AAh being in the water is blissful. Then to snorkel--oh my to hear the sound of my breath as I marvel at the beauty and peacefulness of being under the water in warm oceans, lakes and rivers. Oh my Goddess what delight.

The last few years I have roamed the seas on 40 ft.cruising boats in the Caribbean, Mexico and the South Pacific. I have been honored to interact with the dolphin, turtle, whale, shark, mantarey and seal nations. The expanse of the water as it surrounds you on every side is hard to put into words..the feeling of magic, majesty, primal existence. As I go, I have tuned into water ceremonies that have channeled through me. I and Whitewolf, my husband, are currently visioning a sea/land community http://seacommunitynetwork.ning.com

As a ceremonialist, sound /energy medicine healer, Sun Priestess, Hug Therapist, Dances of Universal Peace Leader, Universal Life Minister, Laughter Yoga ,Positive Dog Trainer and Bubbles the Clown Fairy, I bring joy, laughter, music, peace and love to the circles, gatherings, festivals and playshops I enjoy around the country and the world. I am so blessed to be myself and share these gifts.

Embracing myself as a singing merlady, chants and songs have poured thru me into CD’s: Opening, Emergence, Trusting, and Simple Gifts. I play many instruments as banjo, piano, Balinese flute, uke, kazoo and ceremonial drums. The coyote heyoka loves to come through me as Bubbles the Fairy Clown who has been known to show up whenever you least expect her.

In the last 2 decades I have discovered the beauty, strength and fun of sister circles. Besides participating and starting sister new moon circles, I have also written Women’s New Moon Guide and the companion New Moon Journey CD to assist women in forming their own circles or enriching the ones they are in already. http://aliciabonnet.com

I am thrilled to be invited to join this growing pod of water blessers as we travel and share around the globe in thankfulness the sacredness and beauty of the waters.

D Donna L. Goodman is an action-oriented visionary with a passion for ‘connecting the drops’ (whether they are individuals, organizations, places, policies, etc) for enhanced coordination, cooperation and concerted action. She has been blessed with the very practical life experiences of raising three wonderful children as a single mother in harmony with an amazingly unique and often mysterious and rapidly changing career path. The common theme in all her endeavors has been of service to the world’s children and to Mother Earth, her waters, trees and the interconnection of all forms of life.

She worked for many years in the private sector, developing a company called Little Scientists, learning the wonders of Mother Earth through hands-on science and was subsequently blessed with an opportunity to integrate this knowledge with essential spiritual and metaphysical truths which led me to the United Nations to teach peace through science! Convening water ceremonies at the UN with rainbow glasses (and magnets) as tools to help facilitate understanding of the profound and often ignored reality of the invisible forces on our planet. These grew to become part of such initiatives as the International Day of Peace, the Gandhi King Season for Nonviolence and World Water Day. Through the rainbow glasses Donna was able to help people to understand that every drop of water is the prism which reflects the “seemingly white light” into the billions of unique and essential colors which represent the soul’s purpose of each and every one alive on Earth.

As a result of the peace through science work she was commissioned to write a book about water for the United Nations which is called “Every Body Counts, Every Drop Matters: United Nations Classroom Resource Guide on Water”… and shortly after was recruited to work for UNICEF in the area of water and sanitation which after a few years, led to children’s environmental health and climate change. Working for UNICEF, she was blessed to be able to meet children and to visit so many of Mother Earth’s most sacred water places and have now returned to Earth Child Institute www.earthchildinstitute.org to integrate all of these blessed learnings into practical programs which we sincerely hope can be of service to Mother Earth, her children, water and trees in this incredibly sacred and pivotal time. [do you want contact info here? If so, please use donna@earthchildinstitute.org] if not, that is also fine!

Earlene Gleisner:  I've joined the Sisterhood in order to add my heart and voice to the purposes of balancing and preserving the purity and clarity of the waters. I add my prayers to those dreaming of a time when all will become conscious of our responsibilities to do no harm to ourselves, each other, and our Mother Earth.

To that end, I've chosen to follow my passions of working with energy, people, and writing as ways to touch and assist individuals in finding their point of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual balance. I have currently united my skills as a registered nurse, health educator, Reiki Master, and psychic, offering a full spectrum of tools as a facilitator of personal growth to those clients who wish to move forward in their lives. I offer one-on-one sessions in my office and distant sessions using the phone or Internet.
As a Universal Life Church Minister, I've been developing ceremony for those wishing to marry, bless their babies, memorialize a loved one, step into a new relationship as a divorced couple, or perform other transitional life passages that would benefit them with this method of conscious acknowledgment of change. My religious views are non-denominational, and I hold a deeply rooted connection with Native American culture and spirituality.

Reiki classes in the traditional Usui System of Natural Healing are held over a weekend four times a year or when students arrive. Past students are always welcome to audit the classes for free. I like teaching seminars that I've created as experiential times of learning. “Talking to a Stone” was established to help individuals understand and develop personal rituals. “Writing for a Change” is a six-part workshop that can be expanded or contracted for single or group development of writing skills and a vision by each participant of their personal story. “Deepening” offers framed modules for Reiki practitioners to enhance their practice through consideration of the Five Reiki Precepts. “Choosing to Change” is a basic tobacco cessation course that includes teachings about mindfulness, stress management, goal setting, and grief.

My books include, “Reiki In Everyday Living”, “Just for Today”, and “Reiki As A Complementary Therapy”. Further details can be seen at www.standinginbalance.com

My newest contribution to the world is a set of four novels, “The Sacred Bundle Series.” “The Marriage Bundle” will be available in September, 2010, and begins a circular tale of bonds across time where universal truths are offered to help in the coming challenges on Earth.

I hope you will join me in this quest for balance by visiting my web site, signing on for my monthly newsletter, and/or following my weekly blog at www.earlenegleisner.blogspot.com. I welcome comments and suggestions.

As I see it, we're all in this together.

 
 

Eleanora Amendolara is a master healer and teacher who helps people rediscover the internal sense of balance that enables them to find harmony in all relationships: with the self, others, and the environment as a whole. Her work is directed by the needs of her clients; she evaluates the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each individual and helps to direct the energy that will facilitate healing.

Eleanora has studied with healers, herbalists, anthropologists, physicists, mystics, as well as with the peoples of ancient indigenous cultures on four continents. In addition, she is one of the leading Health Kinesiology (HK) trainers in the field.

A pioneer of unique healing modalities, Eleanora has developed a number of innovative techniques including "CHILL: Chumpi Illumination.” The twelve sacred Andean Chumpi stones are used to promote individual and planetary healing by helping to resolve conflicts, revitalize chakras, release unwanted patterns, and reconnect to the pure self. She has also formulated the Andean Water Essences. These vibrational waters have been collected from sacred sites around Peru and have been crafted to support individuals in the journey to embody an expanding consciousness.

In 2007, Eleanora founded the Sacred Center School for the Healing Arts. Students new to energy healing as well as those who want to enhance existing professional expertise attend the school in order to master practical and transformational skills. They complete the program with certification as healing arts practitioners, but also emerge having undergone a profound personal evolution.

In service to her students and clients, Eleanora awakens their innate ability to become lifelong healers for themselves and others.

F My name is Elif. I am a being of Light in temporary human form here to help other beings with changes and shifts that are occurring on Earth and that will continue to occur on Earth. I am here to love and to guide. How this physically manifests into form varies: healings, ceremonies, workshops, writing, speaking are some examples. Life’s experiences have helped me gain Wisdom and Knowledge. I incorporate these, too, to help others find their Inner Light. The newsletter I began in September 2011, has to do with these ongoing shifts and changes, yet without getting enmeshed in them. Positivity, hope, love are the intentions of the newsletter which is called The New Earth Times. It is free. If you would like a copy, I will be happy to email it to you. You can email me at elif3@ymail.com. OneLove, OneTribe.

  JoAnn SkyWatcher.  My core spiritual belief is that God/Goddess/Spirit is all there is. I am a licensed spiritual coach, with most of my healing work done via phone. Since I have been using Emotional Freedom Techniques, I have learned to trust my intuition and use humor to help people clear stubborn issues that they are ready to let go of. I particularly enjoy working with groups. Touched by a Miracle: EFT Healing Stories, my book, will be available in June, 2010. You can learn more about my coaching at http://wayhealthy.us.

For me, it is all Spirit. When I work with clients, I see them as Spirit. When I take photographs, I frame Spirit in a way that is pleasing to me. I live on the coastal hills of northern California, having the fortune of living in the same place since the mid-seventies. 90% of my photos, were taken within walking distance of my yurt in nature. Many say, that my photo-art is a portal allowing whoever looks at my images to receive a spiritual transmission. It is my intent for you to feel better during and after looking at my images.

I chose to be a water sister to help bring awareness to the water on mother earth. I also know the power of prayer. I know our prayers make a difference.

You can reach me at 707-462-2501. If you like to tweet, you can reach me at I am @MiraclesGoddess. My email address is joann@wayhealthy.us. May you never thirst.

Judith Murray.  In the past I interviewed and worked with Grandma Twylah of the Seneca nation near Buffalo, NY.  That was in the 1990's before she moved to Florida to live with a son.  (Obviously with Twylah's life long work with animals and trees and plants, I am also familiar with the Medicine cards which are dedicated to her.) By the way, the films and TV shows Twylah took part in are "Full Circle" NFB early nineties, and Celebrate the Earth, a TV special in 1995 for CTV and YTV in Canada.

I have also done a lot of video work with First Nations people, in Toronto, in Split Creek, Manitoba, in the Montreal region, in the Buffalo area, and the Treaty 4 tribes (72) in Fort Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan. At the time Perry Bellegarde was chief of the Treaty 4 people. I also worked with elders at a gathering near Fort Qu'Appelle, notably with Lorraine Yuzicapi.

And I worked with Chief John of the Turtle clan (Mohawk) on the south shore near Montreal, and many other people. Chief John once told me that I am a bridge between cultures. He also told me, with all my life long dreams of wolves, "Oh, you are Wolf clan."  (Chief John is now with the ancestors.)

I find your note very encouraging and I continue to do my daily thanks and blessings for Earth Air Water Fire, with the four directions, Grandmother Moon, Mother Earth, Father Sky and Mother Earth.  I endeavor to make my life a blessing for Mother Earth, and some days I succeed more than others.  I am also very concerned with treating our four footed brothers and sisters with respect, as well as those with wings, and those with gills. We are part of the whole. All of us together. As you well know we are all interconnected.

It is a great honour for me to accept your invitation to join the grandmothers in Water Keepers.m I accept with gratitude.

My prayers continue each day of course for Mother Earth, Father Sky, Grandmother Moon, Grandfather sun, the four directions, the four seasons, and the balance of life on our planet. Each day my intent is compassion for and to all sentient beings.

Blessings to all the peace makers and the balance givers and the healers...

Miigwetch.

Yours in harmony with all living beings, all the kingdoms,
Your Sister, Judith

LaVonne Rees:  I'll start by sharing my story about how I came to be so passionate about water. I believe I came into my adult world as a left brain thinker, very analytical. It wasn't until life circumstances brought me back into the reality of the Sacred Feminine that I began to balance my left and right brain activities. I started Holistic classes and became an energy healer. From there I started facilitating Women's retreats for other Women who felt out of balance.

After my first real retreat I was driving home from Sedona, and I started speaking about Dolphins (why in the middle of the desert only divinity knows). I started speaking about how they had a message to share with us. Imagine myself and the shock speaking these words that I had no idea where they were coming from, while in my "other" world I might be considered a little crazy for speaking. However, my body's response was excited, and it knew I had to follow the awareness into action. For my next birthday I went to Kauai, out in the waters and received a message telepathically from a spinner Dolphin. He (or she) did a beautiful Dance about 20 feet from me. Our gaze met at eye level, and I received the message that I was to send my energy work back into the water to assist with her healing. From that day forward I started ceremonies and finding every way to complete that action.

Over the years I have come across others with this passion and about 9 months ago felt a desire to bring all of us together, yet allow us to keep to our authentic paths and purposes.

So here I am. I believe I am a bridge connector, a weaver of sorts. That is my story.

I am a graduate of Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe Community College and the Woodlands Wisdom Nutrition Project in Hayward, Wisconsin. I am a writer and photographer who records the life of the monarch butterfly and native plants. Presently I am writing and photographing a witnessing book on the decline of species from climate change research we are doing in 2010.

In coordination with your Water Blessing Organization, We hold Nibi Wabo (Water Ceremonies) in Washburn and Sawyer Counties in Northwest Wisconsin on a seasonal basis. We are presently gathering in Northwest Wisconsin for Full Moon Ceremonies, I will be opening a hospitality house and grounds in 2011 to accommodate visiting women who wish to join us in Ceremony. In the meantime, we are a spread out group over a radius of 100 miles doing Ceremony and distant partnering in ceremony with members as far away as Ohio and Maryland.

  Meg Beeler, MAT weaves the living energy of stars & mountains, water and trees in her experiential teaching and healing. She has been practicing shamanism and Andean cosmology for 20 years in the San Francisco Bay area. She leads experiential workshops and an apprenticeship program; offers Munay-Ki transmissions; and leads despacho ceremonies. Meg is the founder of Earth Caretakers. Find her blog on shifting consciousness and other visionary writing at http://www.earthcaretakers.net.

Meg adds, “My heart's direction always follows the path of the living energy of all beings, as well as the profound teachings from Medicine for the Earth and core shamanism. The interrelationship of the five elements, both in our bodies and on the planet, continues to be a big teacher for me. I've been working with sacred waters in ceremony for 25 years! I draw on movement meditations from many traditions to observe and embody elemental relationships that bring us into an open-hearted unity consciousness. I believe that our 'world work' in ceremony together complements personal healing, feeds us, and is necessary for the survival of our world.”

 
 

Michelle Saurette: I have practiced and studied wellness for twenty years. My fascination with teaching and inspiring others to understand their options fills me. My formal training is of the osteopathic model along with cranial sacral therapy.  Over the last 10 years I have also studied the subtler energies and now work with many tools of knowledge in all my sessions. Herbology, perm-a-culture, aromatherapy, fishing, and hiking are some of my passions.

My love for the Earth and all is wonders can be found in my art and photography. I make eco art power pieces in the form of jewellery ,wands, wind chimes, candles, window charms and mirrors. As a "Rock Hound" from my earliest memories I found myself collecting all kinds of gems from nature. My feather & crystal are always growing. My love for nature has me working with www.legendandlandscapes.com on waterfall tours.  We have a Women are from Venus program. We bring celebration to the forest in various forms...getting back to the natural state of breathing instills godess energy beside the water, what a gift. I am privileged to live in one of Britsh Columbia's most green spaces near in the Okanagan within the Monashee mountain range. I have followed www.gogratitude.com for 5 years now . I look forward to all these exiting times ahead of us.

 
 

Minthé is a water shaman, shamanic teacher, and Crows Nest certified shamanic counselor.

  Momfeather Erickson is champion of Native American ways in Kentucky.  She is a loving wife, mother and grandmother, dedicated to her familyand community, no different in that respect from many other women in western Kentucky. But there the similarities end. For her alter-ego, "Momfeather," is very different indeed. Poet, publisher, activist and teacher of "the old ways," Erickson, one-half Cherokee, has devoted the last few years of her life to educating those around her on the tribe's role in Kentucky history.

"That trail was made by the buffalo and walked on by the Indians long before Boone came through the Gap," she insists

As director of the Mantle Rock Native Education and Cultural Center in Marion, Momfeather (Feather) - a name she was given by her paternal grandmother - is relentless in her quest to bring to Native Americans and especially the Cherokee the respect she feels they are entitled to.  "To this day, no Native American tribes are recognized in Kentucky, even with so many Cherokee groups living all across the state, and for this, I feel great sadness," she says. (they have made it to legislation)

As a result, she spreads the word - and her pride in her heritage - any way she can, as the author of seven books, from Momfeather Cooks Native American to Native American Children's Stories Warmly Told to Woman of the Wind, a book of poetry saluting her female ancestors, and as advisor, contributor and publisher of Turtle Tales, a bi-weekly Native American newspaper for students.

Then, of course, there is her work as educator, storyteller and community activist, serving as a board member of United Native America, formed in 2001 to strengthen Native communities and preserve native culture; as a spiritual elder of Mother Earth, a hemispheric council entrusted with keeping native prophecies and traditions alive, and for four years, as chief elder of the Southern Band of Cherokees. She is Ambassador for the American Indian Mothers and a Commissioner for the Kentucky Native American Heritage Commission.

While Momfeather has always had reverence for her Cherokee relations who first came to Leslie County in the early 1830's during the time of removal from their tribal lands in North Carolina, her activism was jump-started five years ago after what she will only describe as "a spiritual experience" at Mantle Rock in Livingston County, stop on the Trail of Tears. She was so affected by the experience that she made the move from Nebraska, where she was living at the time, back to Kentucky to "do my part to help bring back our traditions."

Her latest project is the recreation of a village on 56 acres of land in Marion which will "illustrate the time period when our people were taken from their homes," she explains. "We will have a museum, an interpretive center, genealogy lab...we've even started our buffalo herd."

At 71, Martha Erickson may be at the age when most women are ready to retire, but Momfeather sees no end in sight. "I told my husband that as long as I have this important work to do, I will just keep on going." momfeathr@aol.com

Renya Craig - renyacreations@gmail.com    Living in New England by the shoreline is where I reside, although like Turtle, I feel at home wherever I am. My joy is co*creating with heaven and earth through the sacred arts of Inner Listening, Praying and Playing. I create and collaborate in a myriad of ways as a Rainbow Connector, a Soul Essence Artist, and Bard for the New Earth.

The Divine Sisterhood has been my dedicated calling since 1997, after experiencing a powerful transmission from Great Mother called "MAWOMBA - Wisdom of the Womb" inspiring me to gather resonant women in sacred kinship.

Spirit has recently led me to learn of the Water Blessing Ceremonies. What a beautiful dedicated community. I am deeply honored to be among you blessing the waters of precious earth.

 
S Shalahnia Kimberling.  I am metis, my mother being the only one of 8 children who told her children of their Indian heritage. My mother imparted to me from an open heart, the wisdom that we must enter into our heartspace to find the truth. I lost her too soon at 19 years of age.

I became involved in my culture when working on my BA, and that began to flame my fire. Through connections made while participating in the Native American Student Association during that time, I was introduced to much; including the teachings of the 13 Original Clan Mothers. It was during that time that I began to dream and have vision.

I had a most powerful initiation on the Solstice of 2009, and my immediate ancestors began to communicate with me in July of that year. I began to sense a call to work with balancing the yin and yang energies on earth, in September 2009, and initiated an online book study of the 13 Original Clan Mothers, by Jamie Sams.

After being deeply touched by a water blessing by Grandmother Julieta at the 7th International Council of the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers in December 2009, a seed was planted and I offered my first water blessings ceremony May 18th 2010. I received the Grandmother's empowerment (Sharon McErlane) in January, 2010 and work with my local group.

I have served childbearing women and families as a registered nurse, midwife assistant, and as a public school teacher, I am currently retired. I am a Reiki Master Practitioner.

 
 

Sharon McErlane, founder of Grandmothers Speak, author of 'A Call to Power: the Grandmothers Speak' and 'Our Love Is Our Power', teaches and leads groups around the world, spreading the message of the Great Council of the Grandmothers. “The time is now,” the Grandmothers say, “and women must lead. It can be no other way.”

"I am honored to stand with all of you, in one heart, holding the Net of Light for one another, for Mother Earth and for everything that lives. Thank you for inviting me to be part of this work."

 
 

Shelley Ruth Wyndham: I offer the work I do, on a full time basis and have done so for the past ten years.I walk my talk and stand in my integrity to do what is right with all of my heart.All my life I have been inspired by Gandhi's words ''be the change that I seek in this world.'' and I stand in this and for this and inspire others to do the same by showing others it is possible. I am a clear channel, a hollow bone, a conduit in service of the Creator,as messages flow through to me with visions and intuitive wisdom from my Higher Self.This is a gift from the Creator,it is how the Creator has made me for which I am grateful and humble. I offer my work on the basis of helping humanity to wake up, to change our ways and to unite to help our Mother with prayers and deep respect and honour for her and her sacred Waters within our beings and everywhere, all of which require purification,protection and on going guardianship.I welcome this sisterhood connection.   shelley@spiritworldmedicine.co.za        http://www.spiritworldmedicine.co.za
