Shadow Work

"Now I know that 'right' without its shadow partner 'wrong', is a brittle and untested ideal.  Now I know that when we only show our light side to the world, our shadow grows restless, sucking into itself much of our energy and passion.   In order to release my trapped energy and awaken my best qualities, I had to engage my shadow.   I had to see how everything that I judged and feared in others was also in me.   I had to be broken open so fully that my whole self was laid out before me to own and forgive and love."  Elizabeth Lesser

Shaman Lover

"The Shaman Lover is a man or woman whose destiny is to heal the heartsick with the sweetness of love, and to give the gift of fire to those whose passion is frozen.   Sometimes the smartest response to the allure is to run away.  But sometimes the Shaman Lover has been sent by fate to blast us open, to awaken the dead parts of our body, to deliver the kiss of life.  And if we succumb, we are changed forever."   Elizabeth Lesser
