An Intentional Artist
I try as best as I am able to live a life that is intentional and spiritual. My creations are my prayers to whatever Spirit says needs help. I am able to channel the needs and create a physical, verbal or musical gift. These “made prayers” are my way to assist in healing… emotional, spiritual and physical.
This is a sacred universe, which contains a sacred Earth, upon which resides sacred plants and animals, sacred thought and prayer, sacred hope and caring. For everything is truly sacred and contains a Spirit that deserves respect and devotion. We, as Human, must find this vision of everything again… for where we have forgotten how to see the magic, everything else within this universe has not. Blessings, Nate Long “Owl”
Having an intentional/spiritual mindset is a way of thinking and seeing the world and reacting to the world. It coexists and enhances almost all forms of religious beliefs and cultural spiritual practice. It is about living with a view of the world as a living and connected organism. We, as Human, are a part of the whole, not in charge of – or overseers of – the world.
Different from dreaming and from meditation, the shamanic journey is a tool used to provide a closer and more direct conversation with Spirit guides and ancestors; with the plants, animals and elements; and with the Earth herself. Within the journey, similar to lucid dreaming, questions are asked and answers are provided and healing and messages are sent and delivered. Allowing one to bring back the stories and recreating them in whatever artistic way is needed.
Journey Work
From the MIND, HEART and SPIRIT of Nate Long “Owl” with poetry and illustrations, journaling and mapping conversations with Spirit to bring hope, healing and love to whomever and whatever is in need.
Art
Drawings, paintings and photographs — drums and rattles — dream catchers and stones — ceremony and music. All work has been created with honor and respect and is infused with sacred intent — and interwoven with prayer.
