Time of Change and Growth

Hello Everyone,
September is here.
Time for change and learning.
Time for gathering and cooking the abundant harvest from the garden.
Time for all the students to head back to school,marking the beginning of a  new year of growth.
Time for Parents to take notice of how much their child has grow and feel the sadness of time moving so quickly.
Times for growth and opportunities that will expand our journeys down this Life Path.
We can use this change and growth to be a creative force in our lives.
How do I want to use this time to build upon my inner strengthens and deepen my growth?

I have spent the summer integrating all the information from Ireland and my Mom.
I was able to obtain the birth and death certificates for my Mom’s parents.
I could now see my great grandmother’s Name in print: Susan Neylon McLaughlin from Clara Ireland. Connections grow and  I now know more about my roots.
I know about the Irish Roots and I can grow  and transform my inner being.
I can bury what no longer services me in honor and respect.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Pictures from 2015 Ireland 263
Move on with new eyes and openings.
Bringing the Curiosity to my soul that will help me walk in this new way.
Bringing Compassion to my soul that the old ways were hard and the new ways can be different.
Bringing Love to my soul ,that I have been waiting for all my life.
Bringing Gratitude to my soul that I continue to change and grow to stand in a deeper Knowing.
Bringing Abundance to my soul that allows for the flow of life force energy in my being.
Bringing my true authentic self back to me.

I step forward into this Fall Time of abundance and connection with a curious and excited heart.
I wish that you all may embrace this Fall change with the abundance it offers all of us.
Knowing that there are all different emotions with all the different colors at this time.
Many Blessings to you all.

Returning Home

Pictures from 2015 Ireland 248

As I enter Ireland,I placed soil from my Mom’s grave on her homeland.Calling her soul back to Home and eventually my own soul too.I felt immediately safe and comfortable. I have travel to a few places like Italy and Costa Rica and the feeling here was very different. It was magical and carefree. I get magical but carefree is not one of the words to describe myself. I had come to Ireland to understand my Mom and our Ancestors and to heal the wounds between us.

I walked in sacred sites/Forests and did ceremonies around the hurts and scarcities of my family. Laid belly to belly with the Land and shared the sorrows and tears. I felt held by Ireland. I brought a heart shape stick pin from the 80’s that belong to my Mom, which I released into a running creek in a magical forest. It was if I was returning her energetic soul back to her Home Land with the creek washing healing waters over her and my soul. I left a few tears of my own there.

All the Irish folks were very warm and welcoming.There was abundance in food,drink and hospitality. I was surprised and delighted by all.Our bus drive named Brendan helped me connect the family line to different towns.He offered a view/story of Irish Folks,which in turn help me have a different view/story of my Mom and myself.

As I stood in the stone circle at the full moon, I called to all my Ancestors,calling for the healing of all generations 7 forward and 7 back. I called into the wind knowing the request was carried along the stones and the mountain ranges.
As a daughter, the tears streamed down my face,I felt the strengthen of the stone circle and the land.Finally I knew where my Mother got her strength, and courage to continue on in adversity. My Mom kept standing in her power each day like this stone circle stands each day ,no matter how strong the winds blow, they continue to stand strong. My Mom stood strong every day of her life no matter how strong the winds blew.I am honored and grateful to have been her daughter.

I close this writing today with strength and freedom in my heart.
Many Blessings,

A Daughter’s Heart

Happy May Everyone,
This is the Month ,we celebrate our mothers.May we honor and give thanks to Mother Earth during this month too.
I am very excited to be off to Ireland at the end of the month to walk
labyrinths and do ritual at sacred sites. This trip has been a journey in knowing my Mother’s side of the family. My mom was orphaned at the age of 11 years old.
She became a mom with limited tools.I have spent the last year and half researching her ancestors. It first started when I did a 3 day Ancestor Ceremony and I reconnected my Mom’s Mom’s Mom who I knew absolutely nothing about.Not even her name.
I had asked my Mom in the past “How did I get my name?” You know “I had to be adopted” because no one else had my name in the family. My name is Susan Theresa because lots of folks in the family were named Theresa so she choose Susan then Theresa so I would be different!!!!
During my research I found out that my Great Grandmother’s name is
Susan McLaughlin from Ireland. There was never any mention of her in my lifetime by my Mom who passed in 1993. In a few weeks I will be standing on the land that my Mom’s family came from. I have been sowing the seeds of mending during this last year and half. Here is a writing that came to me during this time.

A Daughter’s Heart

Heartbeats in the womb.
2 Hearts beating as one
Then birth occurs
2 Separate hearts beats
Each growing individually
Mirroring our Daughter’s
Heartbeat.
Mirroring our Mother’s
Heartbeat.
Still in Connection.

As I journey to Ireland I hold my Mom’s heart in mine and all the mothers from her Ancestors.I hold mending between Mothers and Daughters for 7 generations back and 7 generations forward.For the flame is the bridge of love between Mother and Daughter and I hold the flame brightly.
To know your Ancestors is to know yourself.To know yourself is to know your gifts and heart desires.
Many Blessings as you all travel during this exciting time.

Welcome to My Website

Hello Everyone,

I am so glad you came by to visit the website.

Like a flower I have been germinating about this website for 5 years. I planted a seed and have been sowing and watering it all this time. Shamanic Spirit Song has changed and grown.

I am coming up to the first year of being fulltime as an owner of Shamanic Spirit Song. Having left the Medical Field after 31 years of working as a Radiology Technologist. What an amazing growth and stretching time it has been for me. Learning different hats you have to wear as an owner like The Manager, Bookkeeper, Computer Person, Practitioner, Teacher and Student.

My true desire has been to live from my true authentic self and life purpose, which I have fulfilled by working as a practitioner. I reap the rewards by working with folks who want to change and grow and to extend a helping hand.

I have an optimistic attitude about building Shamanic Spirit Song and community, which is my true heart’s desire. To be part of a community where everyone brings their special abilities to create all our possibilities and bringing harmony and balance on this Earth where our spirits are received and rejoiced. To see the life review and breath in and exhale the old patterns and clear the way for the New stories and Spiritual Freedom and a place where we can recognize our own rhythms and we can be in nature and breathe with it.

I am dreaming big with multiply possibilities and receiving the abundance that is offered to me.

This is the seed I have planted in my heart and I hold aspirations of great joy to see this flower bloom.

I am grateful for all the family, friends, and other entrepreneurs who have supported and extended a helping hand to me. I want to thank Trish Blain, for creating the website and helping the flower bloom. Community has helped me water and sow this flower.

Deep Gratitude and Many Blessings.
Sue Angelo, owner of Shamanic Spirit Song
