My first Quest was created in the beginning days of Covid. I was dancing in my living room. I looked over at a package I had dragged out from the dark corners of my hall closet.
It was a mystery to be solved in the mail.
Done by an artist.
Full of tiny boxes and cryptic clues.
I whirled and wondered…could I do something like that?
But make it mine?
An answer of yes rushed in so quickly it nearly took my breath away.
That moment.
That Quest.
It unlocked something in me I had forgotten.
An essential piece of who I was.
Of who I am.
I build worlds.
I have for as long as I can remember.
I create worlds with words.
With imagination.
I build worlds and invite people in.
To play.
To explore.
These worlds were the games I played as a child.
The books I read.
The stories I wove within my being.
They were where I unraveled the tangles I could not understand.
Layered the wonders that became my visions.
These worlds were where I discovered the treasures of my Self.
That moment of dancing in my living room was the first time in a long time I even considered that this building of worlds was something that I could share with another.
That it was something that had a purpose beyond my own Self.
It was also a moment where I could feel myself come together.
The Oracle.
The Builder of Worlds.
Because if I was going to create a Quest, I wanted it to be an experience of becoming.
I wanted it to be transformative.
Healing.
I wanted it to be what only I could create, as an oracle.
As an artist.
I wanted it to be full of the magic I make.
And the wonders I embody.
That moment of dancing and wondering changed everything.
Me saying yes changed even more.
Creating these immersive experiences in all the ways and forms I do, thrills me.
I have never loved what I do more I do right now.
And I know this is just the beginning.
There is more.
So much more.
The Quest that I just launched is built around a circus…Tsirk Mer.
Tsirk is Yiddish for circus.
Mer is Yiddish for more.
That moment of dancing showed me more.
And I have been with that more and more and more ever since.
I hope that you will join me on this Quest.
Because I know the power of giving yourself over to a world build for you to explore.
A world built for you to play in.
A world that is there for your becoming.
For the grand embrace of your biggestness.
And I know how amazing I am at creating experiences like this.
It takes the best of who I am and forms it into something more.
Something for you.
For me.
For us all.
