The other morning I found inspiration for a creative project in the moment before I woke up. I was very excited! I did not know if it was the owl that brought me the vision (I had just been given an owl feather that I had placed on the side of my bed), or the fairies (since the idea had to do with fairies).
But the last two days I believe that the fairies have been saying hello to me by chucking snow in my face! I have been walking past the same trees, and twice have a sprinkle of snow flown down in my face! And this on a day with no wind! The other time it was a different tree... But still!!
Gotta be the fairies, eh?

...of the world!!
At the moment I am following two amazing women in Australia who make me HAPPY to be alive and HAPPY to create and HAPPY to believe in myself and my business!
These two women are Hollie B at Lunation and Leonie Dawson. I love their energy, their lust for life and their JOY that can reach me all the way over here in Sweden! They are both in Australia!
What makes me so HAPPY is that they show me that it is possible to work with something that I love. They show me that I can work with JOY and throw myself out off the cliff into the unknown with a shout of joyful WIIIIIIIIIIEEEEE!
They show me that I can believe in myself if I did not already know that...
I love feeling inspired! I love reading books by people who explain in simple terms how to live in the present, and how to go with the flow and how to walk forward, every step, with HAPPINESS and presence!
Oh, I do hope that YOU also find inspiration and that you can walk everyday with love in your heart! Some days it is not easy, but when times are hard try to take a minute out and take ten deep and slow breaths, being present, noticing the beauty around you, wherever you are!
Goddess blessings to you my friend!
Having friends with whom we can be ourselves is wonderful and should be the norm. I have found friends like this who are in my now life and I hope and pray that everyone does! We need to support each other! We need to inspire each other and let ourselves be inspired! We do not need to compete, we need to offer love and acceptance so that each of us can grow and blossom into who we really are!
This weekend me and my daughter went to Söderhamn to visit my friend and Sister Priestess of Avalon Margitta Wigren. She also has a Goddess Temple where she offers sessions and runs trainings.
Spending time with my friend was wonderful! Just being able to share my thoughts, dreams, difficulties and successes is great! It is my wish that we all could find people with whom we can share and be and be accepted as who we are without having to hide behind masks of any kind.
This is why I believe it is so important for women to meet in Circles. In circles we can let our defenses down. We can cry, laugh and share our inner most feelings without being judged.
We need this. We need it badly! And we need it now!
This is what I hope to offer and I know that many women all over the world are doing it as I write this. That fills me with joy, inspiration and awe!
Thank you for being true to yourself. Thank you for sharing your feelings. Thank you for being YOU!
Yesterday was a day of wonderful and unbridled inspiration! I felt so happy and full of energy that everything seemed possible!
And it still is possible, but sometimes I allow other people´s not-so-positive attitude to get to me and I tend to listen to my ego, which usually agrees with the not-so-positive energies. However I am doing my best to ignore the ego voices, or just tell it that Yes, I hear you, but I don´t have to believe or agree.
I take a deep breath and know that I CAN. I have things to offer and I am already offering so much to the world. If I was able to focus my energies and limited lime I would be able to start something even more magnificent!
And that is what this blog is about! I aim to offer you my thoughts, my knowledge, my journey and my heart and soul! I want to live a life inviting people in! Making friends! Creating abundance!
And I know I can do it!
I was thinking yesterday about what specific things I could write about and the things that came to me were:
Mindfulness, Goddess, the Stockholm Goddess Temple and the workshops and events I offer there, other people´s work, sharing what other creative and wonderful women are up to and much more!
Today is a beautifully sunny and freezing cold day in Stockholm and I have about 30 minutes before my daughter wakes up I would think. So I will sit down and start to create some new bits and pieces I am planning to offer the world! The world...that is YOU!
I send you love and hope you are very well today.
And before I go:
Take a deep breath. Look around you and notice one thing of beauty. Really see it and take it in to your heart for at least five seconds.
Thank you.
Hello friends! For a while now I have been blogging about my experience and my work of being a Priestess of the Goddess in Sweden. I wanted to share my journey and make new friends and also practice writing in Swedish since I had spent so many years living abroad and writing in English.
I am very happy with that blog and how many hits I get all the time! I am thrilled that people read what I have to say! But now I felt like I wanted to reach further! I want to reach people who can not speak Swedish, and therefore I have now started this blog!
I welcome YOU and hope that you will return and read about my work and my life with Goddess!
Just a bit about myself... My name is Elin and I am a Priestess of Avalon. I trained with Kathy Jones in Glastonbury for three years and have since helped create ceremonies at the Glastonbury Goddess Conference, and the German Goddess Conference, performed handfastings and Wheel of the Year ceremonies both in the UK and in Sweden, and I now run the Stockholm Goddess Temple.
The Temple is not open all the time yet, but that will change in the future when I get a permanent space. In the Temple I run workshops and meditation and healing sessions. It is a space which is loved by the women (and men) who enter and I am very happy and proud to have created it!
Later this year I will also be a ceremonialist the the Swedish Goddess Conference in Hälsningland. More information to come later!
I am a mother, a counsellor and coach and have a private practice in Stockholm. I am an artist; I create colorful Goddess statues which I have sold in Glastonbury and all over the world!
I aim to live a life in love, meeting everyone with love and helping to create a better world by being true to myself and living in the moment.
I hope that you will consider following my blog and I hope that you will enjoy finding out more about me and my journey as a Priestess.
See you again soon!
