About

photo (6)
I am an artist, contemplative, dreamer, writer and healer, and it took me a very long time to admit that to myself. I am a Soul navigating my personal journey. This journey involves an unquenchable desire to reach down into the depths, explore the unknown, teach intuitively, embrace the spiritual gifts available to us all, be of service, and learn to align with my immense feminine power.
My deepest soul-desires are creative expression, aesthetic counseling, creative mentoring, personal healing work with others through intuitively identifying physical and emotional blocks (because it’s all spiritual), adventure, storytelling, group work, prayer, space cleansing, and travelling the realms outside of space and time. I am a fluid journeyer, sound healer, intuitive and artist, but like many others who resonate with the Wounded Healer archetype, my journey has not been without the pain and devastation so inherent to the path of transformation and deep compassion. For more information about the specific gifts I use, see below (after the poem).
I hope you find the imagery, writing, symbolism, sounds and dreaming in my work here to be inspiring and transformative.

The Invitation
by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

It doesn’t interest me
what you do for a living.
I want to know
what you ache for
and if you dare to dream
of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me
how old you are.
I want to know
if you will risk
looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me
what planets are
squaring your moon…
I want to know
if you have touched
the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened
by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know
if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know
if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you
to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us
to be careful
to be realistic
to remember the limitations
of being human.

It doesn’t interest me
if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear
the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.

I want to know
if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live
or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me
who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me
where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know
what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.

I want to know
if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like
the company you keep
in the empty moments.


More Information:

AmandaSeesDreams is a natural born Intuitive.

Dreamer. Seer. Healer. Visionary. 

and so are You!

I am most passionate about exploring hidden and subtle realities, and helping others see their own gifts, beauty and power. My role as a guide is to show you your innate strengths, gifts and abilities while helping you to heal old patterns that no longer serve.

I am best able to do this in several unique ways:

– dreamwork. I currently host group dream work in the Asheville, NC area, as well as create dream art and images for private clients. I offer intuitive dream skills that allow you to find meaning in your own dreams through our joint intuitive insights.

– walking into a space and recognizing what lingering emotions, energetics and presences need releasing or removal. Using the shamanic arts of clearing through song, drum, dance, ritual, and intention to clear the space. Teaching and empowering clients to recognize these energies on their own.

– working with technical artists experiencing creative blocks to originality and individuality in their specific body of work. Naturally intuiting what series of images or symbols will remove the block and allow for an experiencing of release of the floodgates of creative unconscious material for expression.

– using song to access subconscious intuitive messages for clients

– energy work through intention and prayer

– intuitive readings

    Exquisite introduction! Your words are imbued with the spirit of the Transcendentalists. It brings Emerson’s immortal words to mind, – “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”
