We will be journeying with these 25 SoulCollage® cards during the tele-class and hearing their "I am one who". A visual and auditory contemplation on 25 Names of the Divine.
Each of these SoulCollage® cards is a Name of the Divine.
All these cards are in the Council Suit of SoulCollage®.
Hover over each SoulCollage® card to see its name.
Click on each SoulCollage® card to enlarge it and see it's name. Once you have enlarged the first card, you can simply click on the arrow on the image to progress to the next card in its enlarged form, as I read its "I am one who...". This arrow appears when you hover over the right hand side of the card.

GROUP DISCUSSION
At this point in the tele-class, it will be really great to hear from tele-class participants, those of you who would like to share with the group. To assist our discussion, I will be asking you to please consider these two questions in relation to the 25 SoulCollage® cards you have just contemplated:
Q1: Did any of these 25 Divine Neters strongly resonate with you? If so, which Neter had the most resonance for you and why?
Q2: Were any of the 25 Divine Neters troublesome or surprising for you? If so, which ones and why?
Now leaving aside the 25 Neters represented by my cards...
Q3: What is an image of the Divine you relate to, associate or commune with in your life? Have you made a SoulCollage® card for this Neter?

GUIDED MEDITATION FOR DEEPENING YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE DIVINE
An audio (MP3 format) of a guided meditation to invoke your image or name of the Divine, for your SoulCollage® card making, will be provided by me to tele-class participants after the tele-class. This MP3 is available to those who participated in the live tele-class and also those who listen to the recording.
I created this meditation for use in the workshop I presented (with Gretchen Thomas) at the 2013 SoulCollage® Facilitators' Conference, Skamania Lodge, Stevenson, WA, USA. I am delighted to now share this meditation with the participants of this KaleidoSoul tele-class.
The Guided Meditation is available for listening and download from the KaleidoSoul website. Go to the Members Page Audio Library and you will find it along with the recording of this tele-class.
Mudra
For this heart-centred meditation, I recommend using a hasta mudra (hand gesture), the Hridaya Mudra (Heart Gesture). In the audio, I guide you through preparing this mudra but I also thought it would be helpful to provide you with an image and the instructions as part of this tele-class Resources Page.
Hridaya Mudra diverts the flow of prana, or energy, and awareness to the heart. Retain Hridaya Mudra throughout the meditation. If for any reason this mudra is not comfortable for you, place the backs of the hands on the knees, or on the floor beside you if lying down, and simply leave your palms open and your fingers relaxed.

Bring the tip of your index finger to the root of the thumb.
Join the tips of your middle and ring fingers with the tip of the thumb.
The little finger remains straight (or slightly curled if more comfortable).
Place your hands on your knees with the palms upward.
Hold the mudra gently, without any strain or force.
Close your eyes and relax your body.

I welcome and will greatly appreciate any feedback you would like to offer me about your experience of (1) the tele-class and (2) the Guided Meditation, including what may have arisen for you, and the card(s) you made resulting from the meditation.

I
am the one who birthed SoulCollage® and gave it to the world,
