Hello, friends! It has been a very busy but productive holiday season. I have started offering services at community events, and I’ve also given my YouTube channel a soft launch. (More on that in a minute.)
On December 22, I opened my booth for my debut at the Blue Raven Full Moon Market (& Community Drum Circle). I was kept busy for the first three hours solid, with three back-to-back reiki sessions followed by three back-to-back tarot readings – and then more reiki and tarot readings after that. Most of the people I worked with had never had reiki or tarot, so I had the honor of being their introduction to these arts I value so highly. All went beautifully, and I even got to top the evening off with a wee bit of drumming out by the fire.
Upcoming Events in 2024:
Jan. 7 – Market at the Monk, noon until 5:00 p.m., St. Petersburg, FL
Tarot readings and reiki sessions.
Jan. 19 – Q’ero Fire Ceremony with Karen D. Riber, 6:45 to 9:45 p.m., Palm Harbor, FL
I will be serving as firetender for this transformational shamanic ceremony. “A fire ceremony, whether personal or in a group setting, can help shift and clear old energies, subconsciousness patterns, community issues, and old lessons with conscious action & gratitude.”
Jan. 26 – Blue Raven Full Moon Market, 7:00 to 11:00 p.m., St. Petersburg, FL
Tarot readings and reiki sessions.
Feb. 29 – Mar. 3 – Hawkfest, Maddox Ranch, Lakeland, FL
I will be presenting a shamanic workshop during the festival, which will likely be an Upper World journey to a place of personal healing. Details to come, topic may shift.
I’m on YouTube!
I have launched my channel, Nightbird ~ Karen E. Martin, and I posted my first video on Dec. 23: Nightbird’s Special Christmas Edition Life-changing Metaphysical Book Review. (Phew, try to say that five times fast.) It’s about one of my all-time most important books, “Love is Letting Go of Fear”, so check it out if you would like to hear a brief excerpt and a bit of my personal history.
I’ve also been posting daily shorts. In these one-minute clips, I have been pulling a single card to offer quick insights from Spirit. Today’s One Card Message was the Sky Dancer card, from the 5 Keys to Happiness Oracle Cards. I aim to post one of these short readings every day – or at least as often as possible – so check back to my YouTube channel regularly. I’ve been surprised to see that the first three shorts have all gotten over 50-60 views each so far. I can’t imagine who would have found my channel at this point, so I think YouTube must be promoting the shorts since they are “New” (from a debuting channel).
I ask you to please support my work by subscribing to the channel, turning on notifications, liking/sharing/commenting, and especially, by watching. All of these actions help the algorithm boost my videos, allowing my messages to find more of the people who may want to hear them. Thank you so much! I appreciate you, friends.
