Welcome to The Salon.

All thanks to the Webmaster! I requested a forum and boom! An hour later, there was this knock at my monitor door. Wow.

Kiddies, this is a real salon. We shall have tea and discuss those tawdrier, more visceral topics we don't feel comfortable or appropriate discussing in other forums. Please bring your emotional baggage, shouldered monkies, stifled feelings, unanswered sadness, self doubt, insecurities and anything else you wish to transmute.

We live in a time and in a society that is still beholden to ideals based on oppression and control. Effectively, the machine still thrives on fear. We hold back saying our peace when we need to out of fear we won't be loved, fed, or supported. I want to provide a forum where that isn't so.

My tithing in holding this salon is serious. I've been through some stories that perhaps, one day, will make a phenomenal book that few will believe. I know you all have too. If you need to post with anonymous numbers, I will understand. I hope that won't be the case. Standing and speaking your truth with love raises your vibration and the whole world then feels inspired to be who they really are. Honoring your truth provides a ripple effect around you.

I do ask something in return. I will endeavor not to alter your words. Please write with IN-tention. Write your words from your own truth. I ask that you not word things without compassion for others views and that you deliver your opinions with love. I ask that this forum provides an exercise in compassion for all parties. I'll ask that if you offer words from your own paradigm (be it religious or spiritual) that you not word your advice in a way that dominates another's views, so as to exalt your view as the only valid one. I hope some delicate subjects will be covered and that everyone will have an opportunity to grow as a result. I know I will.

I ask my guru friends to join in on giving direction and love to those who seek it. Glaxony provides a wealth of information on knowing your body, yourself and seeking Spirit. 'O' has done an enormous amount of seeking on her path to wholeness. Cora is another woman that has asked some difficult questions in her life process. Ask and ye shall find. Together, the feminine energy on these forums is a veritable library of love and understanding.

We live in a difficult time. Everyone around you is aching to speak their truth. Perhaps if we honored each other's truths we would find ourselves in a very different paradigm. We will find ourselves in a world in which inhibitions floated away and you found yourself walking in your light.

I'm reminded of Yogi Bhajan saying, 'the moment you love, you are unlimited.'

Live one self, live one love. Welcome.
