DAY 1

Art therapy to feel and release

A guided meditation circle to acknowledge your felt experience.


Choose a resource from the Self-Mastery Oracle Deck in a guided process to transform pain into purpose through your artwork. Experience tuning fork sound healing as you create your art in your personal transformation.


What is the Self-Mastery Oracle Deck?

 

This is a 42-card inner guidance system to support empaths, healers and those moving through life transitions to access clarity, intuition and self-trust.

 

Created through a 45-day channeled process guided by dragon consciousness and deep daily practice, each resource card is a field of frequency designed to help you reconnect with your inner compass.

"I was lucky enough to participate in constellation work with Melanie. I was new to the modality and felt held and guided the entire time, while also empowered to take up space and be fully embodied. Melanie created a container that was grounded and expansive and led with assuredness, curiosity and intuition. She brought in her multidimensional connection using sound and movement, and I believe each participant felt significant movement if not profound shifts. Her Self-Mastery Oracle card deck contributed powerfully to the whole experience, complimenting the work with lightness and depth simultaneously, and I left with some major, new insights. I highly recommend both working with Melanie and working with this deck."
