 Hello beautiful souls. This is Ona Christie. Welcome back to Art of Awakening and today I'm inspired by my friend Ashley from her channel is Adventures Across and she did a video that was just a sketchbook tour of her sketchbook. And so I thought that was really fun. So I thought I'd do that too just because there's been a couple things that my guides have been kind of guiding me to do lately. One is to study law, which is including the universal spiritual laws as well as common law. And the other thing is to embody joy. And with the sketching, it's like lately, I've been really drawn to using these watercolor crayons. And so much so it's been really, really freeing and fun because it's really just kind of playing. It's like going back to being a child. And it's been so much fun that I've been, I actually went and bought this humongous set of crayons. There's like 84 of them in here. And so I'm going to share some things that I've been doing with that in this sketchbook as well as some regular sketches. Alright, so let's go on. Just starting with this one. It's, I've got two kinds of sketchbooks one is basically a journal but I always use a sketchbook as a journal because often I do have drawings that come in here. Coming through this first and then I'll share my actual sketchbook sketchbooks. So, just a few, mostly this is words but I hear the unicorn that came in a few weeks back. Just, you know, sometimes we'll get the spirit animals unicorn. Sometimes it's symbols. So this one I believe there's a few of them that came in that were actually just when I do a session with people that can choose to have me do a drawing with it and sometimes it comes through as symbols for them. I think it's eagle because this actually made it into a video recently but this is what it looks like in this sketchbook. Because I was asking about the message of eagle spirit I was feeling able around me a lot. And this, the first thing it gave me was this big image, and then it gave me a bunch of an explanation of that. So the drawings are actually a form of inquiry where you can actually connect with your spirit guides and use that in both journaling and in images sketching. Here's a dragonfly dragonfly energy coming in. Oh, here's one. The last day was actually a lot of images here. It came in and then the spirit guides so sometimes the spirit guides will come in. I don't even know like he didn't give me a name, but he just really feels like he's connected with like the Elvin realm, or fairy, he's got a fairy star on his forehead. And remember, I think he just kind of came in. Sometimes they have, you know, very, very elaborate messages or very simple messages, but he just, I think just came in as a presence. I, you know, he's not one that I've worked with a lot it's just like sometimes it'll just like up here. And it's almost like this we're with you kind of thing. Although, like, I'm sure I could go in and fire about him and he probably does have a deeper message and I often will do that. I don't think I did with him because I was really tired. All right, so this one came in. Oh, just at the end of last month, Raven was feeling a lot of Raven energy and then there's this little image of a person meditating with the Torah Torah Reutal energy about it. So I was talking about October energies. Okay, so let's move into this sketchbook here. This I think was from a few years ago I had started just a dragon. He's almost like in this infinity shape. Kind of repeating itself in a few places. And more symbols. There's a couple symbols that came through for somebody I was working with. Another one. A lot of heart energy. That ox symbol. We can see that coming forward this. Show to you, very much like this Falcon Isis kind of energy coming through. And even notice that because I've been working with the uncle lot you're going to see that in a bit but this came through. It was a lot earlier in the year. So just realize that there's an infinity sign. And this is where like these watercolor crayons are starting to come in. So here on it's going to be really, really colorful and just playing playing with the color. And just letting myself be a child again. And it's been so freeing because it's like with the crayons it's just crayons so I don't feel like I have to create any kind of piece of art or anything it's just playing with the color playing with the vibrations. And one of the things that came in was just a lot of color and a lot of vibration. And here's this dude that came in. He reminds me of a chicken spirit actually have chickens. So, it kind of was like, okay, you can in. And looks like a cosmic chicken. And a lot, another infinity sign at a sacred abundance and just a lot of energy here. wanting to express itself. This one to just a lot of vibrational energy. And sometimes this one I think was a lot about polarity. And it feels like kind of the four directions idea as well. And the idea of being able to transmit things to your energy. This was another session drawing. It feels like Mother Mary there to me. This one. Dude, come in with a gratitude but the first thing I got here was this image of like the hands connecting with a star. And this is also like this star seed connection, kind of painting drawing. Okay, here come the onks. There's a whole series of these things. So this is the first one, and just radiance. I love the on starting to really delve into this, this symbol of the onk. And it feels like there's a lot of Archangel Raphael energy in this one. The onk is this ancient symbol of life and connected with the goddess Isis I think a lot. And kind of it's sometimes seen as a key. You see this a lot of the sacred room or a portal opening in the onk. I know this is a silly one. So starting to try to illustrate something I didn't really call it a bunch. I like this one there's another onk this one. It feels like Phoenix energy. It's something beautiful that came through in the inquiry because a lot of times these things start with a sketch and then there might be energy in it that feels like it wants to say something. So then I'll go into my journal and do some channeled writing around it. So this one is like this renewal, and in the flame of dissolution lies the seed of new life. So in the next one, this one's more about the void and stillness. And it struck me that I don't know this might be an Oracle card deck and other deck in the works so let me know if you have something that you'd be interested in onk deck. This one speaks to be a victory. There's a lot of symbolism here that I have yet to delve into. And, okay, this one was from the first session of the class that I'm doing now on the 12 spiritual laws and it's we're just all going in and actually working with the class to tune in to the energy of each law and see what comes out in terms of image and words and this one. And this one is a teaching painting because I was asking for insight into how to better understand a lot of my oneness and especially as pertains to my, some of the things that are going on in my life. And it, it really, it seems so chaotic but when I went in and did a lot of inquiry, it was given rooms of information to help me to understand what was going on with my own self, and it really led to a lot of healing. And I think that can happen with you, if you choose to do this yourself with the with the dry. It's not only just a joyful activity in and of itself but it can be a real path for healing. This one I haven't finished yet, but another onk. And the title is what one is for remembrance. Okay, the one here. The other one, one of the images in here reminded me this elephant. And I had just seen a video on Ganesh kind of explaining some of the Ganesha energy. And so that led to this one, which is the Lord Ganesh and he's got this snake around his belly. And it's awareness and the belly itself is like acceptance. So, this was, to me, it was really a healing painting and then he's got all these eight little spheres here, which I didn't even know what they were, but I found out when I was researching Lord Ganesh and the number he had eight incarnations. And so I think that's probably connected with that he was said to have overcome eight demons but this feels to me like more eight blessings or eight portals to open or eights. I don't know, just eight. It feels like we're like eight blisses. So I'm feeling like I need to work with this painting a little bit more and maybe unpack each of these eight little packages of bliss and see what that is. He is holding these sweets in his hand which is a reminder to enjoy life. And I think that's close to all of the other sketchbook starting here with a couple more. I guess there's a couple more here is another one sort of enigmatic to me, I haven't yet gone in to find out the meaning. So I would love to hear your insights, any meaning that you see in this one. It's got this symbol again with the leaves with the first things to come in around it, and with the eye and then once I decided to get the water in there, because these these crayons just actually really dissolve in water and they turn into watercolor, which is so much fun, because the drawing itself is very linear, and then you can really get that fluidity in there which is so much fun. But the whole thing changed when I put the water on and it feels like there's a lot to do with water and water energy in here, but I would love to hear your feedback and your insights into anything that you see in that painting. And then this one was kind of funny because it started out as a just a triangle. I'm not even sure I think it's this direction but it might actually be that direction. So I'm still kind of working with this one too but it started out with just a kind of like a pyramid. And again it was a drawing but as soon as I added the water, everything got fluid and changed a lot. And then some of the stuff, some of that was done with the left hand with my non dominant hand, because there's one student in our class that does a lot of work with her non dominant hand and she gets a lot of insights that way so I thought I'd give that a try. So there's the young symbol coming up in here and it almost looks like all these different sons maybe showing up. So, still trying to figure, not trying to figure but asking for insight into what that one is saying. So this one came up out of class to, which was where this week we're doing delving into the law of correspondence as above so below and this is the image that it gave me that I'll be working with, and doing some written inquiry on this too but so far the inquiry came in it was like all about the heart and when you're in your heart, your heart vibration expands out and it's this as above so below but it's like as within so without so when you're in your heart it really that vibration gets picked up by your whole environment around you so that's the drawing there and hard to see in this light. So it's really hard and there's a lot of kind of gold and bronze color. I think I just got one more. This is one from last night, it was just feathers. I have all these feathers on my desk. So I had these three feathers and I just decided to draw them. And like, I haven't done that in a while just drawn something from life, which I used to do a lot a lot of. And any more mostly I'm doing it just spirit driven, but it was just kind of fun to do something from life and what I found was, after I did that they gave me a whole lot of more information about this law of correspondence which I may share in a future video we'll see. But it just opened up even though it wasn't intended to be a spirit drawing at all it is just the act of drawing sort of like open up a little portal for me to understand more or for the guides to be able to reach me in the right frequencies to receive whatever that information that they wanted to give me. Right, so I hope you've enjoyed. I also encourage you if you, if you to find joy in creating things whether it's art whether it's music. Allow yourself to do it because that's one thing that I'm being told really, really strongly now is that it's so important for us to allow ourselves to, you know, to be in that joy vibration so whatever it is. And that brings you to that joy anything that you know calls to you that will will open up that inner child and you allow yourself to do it because it's it's so needed that vibration of joy, not just an emotion. It's a very, very high vibration of love that's that's that's so needed on the planet right now and as you find yourself or bring yourself into that frequency of joy, it helps to anchor that frequency right onto the planet. And so it is really one thing that we can do to assist in this whole transition and bring in a new golden age on this earth.
