Color Archetypes- Creating our childhood color maps

Color Archetypes- Creating our childhood color map!

We started this course with a live event in April 16th.

You can access this for free when you register to the site.

In this event, I shared with you my new method

Color Archetypes

Color archetypes is a spiritual-artistic method to identify and understand the source of energies available to us from the day we were born – core energy, connection energy, and spiritual energy.

These three energies, inherent parts of us, navigate and shape our lives. Understanding them will help us live better, happier, and more fulfilling lives.

When we know and recognize these energies, we can learn to balance them and achieve an energetic state of tranquility, creativity, and happiness. This state touches our higher spirit, or self-archetype.

In this course we will learn to map the energies inside us through the color map, working with archetypes, shamanic meditations, and creating a visual journal.

We will learn about the childhood color energy map, a fascinating process that we can use over and over to heal childhood wounds and transition toward the life that we want to create for ourselves.

Materials that I used in the Live event

  • Watercolor paper
  • Watercolors
  • White/black pen
  • Glue/scissors
  • Acrylics/posca markers
  •  Images from old books/magazines
  • Any material that you have at home

 

You can still sign up for the Color Archetype course

This is a recorded course that will be yours to keep forever! 

SoulPages in Tuscany

SoulPages in Tuscany

I wanted to share with you my most memorable moments!!

 I was traveling for a whole week in Toscana and  I felt really blessed for having my visual journal with me.

It was almost like a close friend that helped me to reflect on everything that I saw.

It helped me to slow down and not rush from one activity to the next.

This is a visual summary of my vacation…

For each day I have chosen my most memorable moment.

I hope you enjoy it!

 

Day 1- Florence & the Ponte Vecchio bridge

That is definitely the most beautiful bridge I ever saw with these small houses all over it.

I couldn’t stop looking at it and imagining how it looked in the old days.

This is what I wrote in my Diary

“Such a full day of Renaissance art from the great masters like Botticelli, Caravaggio, Donatello, Michelangelo and many more…but what I really loved is wandering around this small beautiful city and looking at it from different positions. Sitting in small coffee places and working in my journal. In the Duomo tour I learned that Brunelleschi discovered the concept of perspective, and that is how the Renaissance started..so today my prompt was-we all need to have some “perspective” in our lives”

 

Day 2-Piazella Michelangelo

The view from Piazella Michaelangelo was really breath taking!

I recommend spending there a few hours of drawing the beautiful scenery. 

 

Day 3- Pisa

A very busy day of traveling between Florence and Sienna through Pisa and San Gimignano..the word that kept coming to my mind was-proportions..
Here I worked with brochures I got in the streets.

 

Day 4- Siena

Siena is such a beautiful place that I took maybe 200 photos today.. We climbed the Torre del mangia tower and watched over the crazy streets with so many houses build on each other.

 

Day 5- Tuscany Villages

Today we changed the atmosphere to  small villages..my favorite was Pienza with so many cute places and serene views of green hills and cypress trees. In my house I have 3 of them hanging out in front of my house, so I felt at home.

 

Day 6- The Tarot Garden

The tarot garden of Niki de saint phases is one of the most beautiful, inspiring and imaginative places I saw!
The artist that created it was inspired by Gaudi’s Parc Guell in Barcelona. She designed and created it in 22 years. Every statue represents one of the tarot of the major arcana ( the 22 steps of the fool’s journey).
As a tarot lover, I had such an amazing time exploring each of them.
The pictures don’t show how amazing this experience was.. it’s a true gem that Niki de Saint Phalle gave us ( She died in 2002 when the garden was completed)
I’m going to try and express it in my journal in the next few days so keep an eye for my next posts about this incredible place!!

Do you want to join me in packing my Visual Journal traveling kit?

I love to go on vacation, visit new places and then express what I feel in my Visual Journal.

I haven’t been to Florence since I was 13, so 40 years ago…
I think this was the age when I started drawing.

That was my Bat-Mitzvah present, a tour around Europe with my grandparents and I felt overwhelmed!

It was the first time I left Israel and everything looked so beautiful and different!

This time I will have my Visual Journal to express what I see and feel.

So what do you actually need when you travel? 

I take with me: 

My travel visual journal

An extra small size watercolor block

Tombow markers

Permanent black Liners

Posca markers

Jel pens

Metallic pen

washi tape

Daniel smith small box of favorite watercolors

Scissors

Small glue

I pick up brochures and journals images as I go.

The Transformative book & the Dreaming child

The Transformative book & the Dreaming child

Layers of Meaning-The Book as a transformative force 

Last week we had a zoom live event to celebrate my book published in the US.

In this event, I shared with you my journey in the last eight years, since I started developing my method- SoulPages.

And how writing the book was a transformative force that helped me create my path.

we talked about the seven elements and I demonstrated a full process of activating the dreaming child within.

The Dreaming child archetype

One of the basic concepts I talk about in my book is The Dreaming Child.

It is pure childlike energy that exists within us, it is familiar with our unconscious mind, with all the inner landscapes and all the treasures we have yet to unearth.

The Dreaming Child is ready at any moment to go on a journey of discovery and investigation, with a fresh perspective, always seeing the world as if for the first time

Connecting with this archetype will bring joy and passion to your life.
