As I pondered manifesting an image that could capture the essence and spirit of Divine Harmony Temple and Education, I recalled how striking, resonant, and powerful I found the Earth Warrior deck written by Alana Fairchild and illustrated by Isabel Bryna. The messages in combination with the potent images that mixed shapes, color, symbols, and themes of reverence, humility, stewardship, intuition, family, unity, and strength—among others—inspired me with optimism and trust that restoring Earth with joy, harmony, and enchantment was indeed possible.
Though Isabel and I were strangers, I trusted her. I wanted to give her the seed of Divine Harmony Temple and Education for her to water and cultivate into visual creation. After several weeks, we finally managed to speak with each other and though she is a rock star in my world, I managed to contain my enthusiasm and express my desire and vision clearly: I asked her to read my vision for Divine Harmony Temple and Education and that if she connected to and with it, to dwell in its energy, picture an image, and then paint it.
It’s hard to describe what I felt when I first saw the painting. Joy and zeal emanated from my core. For the next week, I gazed and studied the painting for 30+ minutes a day—discovering new symbols and shapes—and I continued to be in awe. My face began to hurt because I was smiling so much.

I appreciate every single line, detail, shape, color and of course the prominence of the medicine and teaching offered by the wolves, horse, buffalo, eagle, and condor. The flowers. The eyes. The rainbows. The hearts.The sacred geometry. The confidence and knowing of the child. The joy. The harmony. The enchantment.
Thank you Isabel. The spiral of inspiration unfolds. I inspired you. And you have touched, moved, and inspired us to build a Temple and School that honors the vision you saw and painted. We place our hands over our hearts and blow you a tender kiss.Thank you for sharing your gift with us and the world. What an honor.
