The Journey

Where do you get your ideas? That's a question that comes to me often. There are no hard and fast answers for that one. Recently I was explaining the creative process to my niece who was designing and building a shoe as part of a design mentorship program, I am part of. I told her to listen to her shoe and hear what it tells her to create.  I asked her what was her shoe asking for when she looked at it for a long minute. She answered "it needed more feathers in the back". "There you go!" I said. "Your shoe told you what it needed! Listen to your creation and it will guide you."

 

Magical Yogi Wear was created for people to have fun and express their true spirits! The creations are all intentionally created to heal and promote well being! So many people have told me how they have worn their Magical Yogi Wear all throughout the quarantine. They say the designs give them comfort and make them happy!

Bingo! That is what healing is! If you can smile- you are healthy and happy! Happiness is not a solid continuous trip. It flits in and out like a butterfly or a hummingbird!

You don't have to be a yogi to love Magical Yogi Wear! You just have to be able to walk on the wild side every once and awhile!

Astrology- the language for the new Aquarian age. Although, astrology is an ancient symbolic language that speaks of the cosmic DNA of all life in our universe. The art of astrology requires a lot of mathematics, geometry and statistics and yet really only works when the astrologer has a highly acute intuition and understanding of the human psyche.

 

Magical Yogi Wear-perfect shelter-in-place-fashion! Whether you are doing a home practice, meditation or a virtual webinar- Magical Yogi Wear is comfortable and radiates positive vibrations! Sacred symbols have been making people feel better for the last 40,000 years!

Textile design as healing- for thousands of years -textile and surface design were designed as magical symbols to promote healing for the owner. "You have to buy this rug! The woman who wove it, told the story of her life in this rug!" So commanded the Turkish carpet seller as I gazed at a beautiful Turkish tribal rug.

The how and why Magical Yogi Wear is created.

Hey all you beautiful, magical beings- Please send pictures of yourselves in your Magical Yogi Wear and help spread the magic!

In the factories of India, one would expect to see the women in drab work clothes, with little or no adornment, but in Northern India the women who quilt and sew wear all their jewelry and their sari's are always colorful and neatly pinned. Even the Dalit women who sweep the floors are in their sari's and adorned. 

I realized when I saw these beautiful women that they are the true embodiment of Shakti. In their regal attire, they defy their own banal existence and the drudgery of working in a factory. They flaunt their brightly colored and bangles in defiance of the grey environment around them. 

That is the paradox of Mother India which most westerners don't understand. In the mud and filth of India comes out a riot of life, music, dance, color and complete defiance of the material reality which surrounds them. On the banks of the Ganga in Varanasi, you have a carnival of life whirling around you, with hundreds of pilgrims, Sadhus. merchants selling everything from eggplants to Shiva statues, tour guides-total pandemonium, yet at the same time the cremations are going on and families and loved ones are mourning. 

The Ganga itself remains strongly tranquil. When you watch the spectacle of life and death on the ghats from the vantage point of sitting in a little row boat floating on the Ganga- there is only peace. Neutral and timeless.

These women working in the factories in their beautiful sari's are a reminder of Shakti. The creative feminine spirit of the universe-always beautiful, full of color and light. Eternal and indestructible!
