Council of Gnomes Blog

After years of stimulating Barbara to wake up to the reality of the elemental beings that are the life force within the natural world of earth, air, fire, and water, Mano first introduced himself to her when she moved to the heart of a redwood forest.

My wake-up call came when I first started painting. Gnomes and angels started appearing within the shapes that made up a mountain, a bowl of fruit and finally within the shapes of my abstract paintings. For over 40 years I have intentionally opened to the spirit world…

The Burned Woman

“This is truly a work of art.  It’s simple and elegant, yet significant and profound in its message.” In some way many of us have experienced her story in this life or another. She was betrayed by those she loved, healed and served. They tied her to her tree and burned her. With Angelic intervention, although badly burned she didn’t die. In total disbelief that her friends could do this to her she made the monumental ‘heart choice’ to remain an active healing presence in the life of…
