Cre Naofa Creations Figurines and Talismans

   spiritual art born of the Earth- ideal for personal mediation shrines or healing spaces

 
Each cre naofa (Gaelic:holy clay) statue is hand formed from unprocessed raw clay gathered from an area of focused teleuric energy (Chi) that has witnessed and been amplified by 6,000 years of human occupation, experience and expression.

 

Portable Altars

These tiny altars, constructed from wood and stone and bound with copper are “resonant attractors” - items to be used to focus intention whenever you need to construct a healing space - a soul space. Anywhere at anytime, you carry your own sacred space to unfold as required.

 Talking Sticks

Facilitating meetings of any sort is an art form and a talking stick is an excellent too for insuring that all parties are heard. It belongs to a long tradition of consensus taking group decision making.

Basically, when someone is holding the talking stick- no one else speaks until that person has handed the stick to the next person and so on. Thus, everyone has a chance to speak their mind and be heard.

It is a process that is based upon respect, attentive listening and intentional speaking

 

Goddess Imagery

This image represents Gaia -earth goddess- that which births everything and that which calls all back to itself. Many cultures share a view of the Earth and all its biological, geological and energetic systems as being one integrated living entity - a goddess or THE Goddess, of female genre as it gives birth to all upon and within it.
