Primal art has a feature that sets it apart from "modern art" or "contemporary art" or even "classical art" - namely that it is from a place where art and magic were one and the same and had not yet been broken apart. Art was magic, magic was art and as all art served a magical purposes, so did all magical purposes serve art itself. The logical next step from 1st Art is the hand print on the cave wall, and then to go on and put other things on the cave wall as well.

So it made sense to make a cave painting at this juncture.

The EFT Story protocol is a hugely important pattern with many uses. Apart from the fact that it can treat any problem that has a story which can be told, it is also a wonderful training device to notice the effects of energetic disturbances on the mind/body/spirit system, to learn about de-stressing, about building a stress free path into the heart of the problem, and taking a negative memory through to a real healing event.

In this article, we find important tips on using the Energy EFT story protocol in self help, and a self help session done by Martina Konecna from the Czech Republic, who is student on the Master Practitioner course which is an excellent example how to do the story protocol right.

It is a fact that any time I move into that arty frame of mind, I get given gifts from the Universe. The other day I got the most fabulous surprise daily diamonds (now my desktop background). Today, just now, I got a truly amazing light show and some very cool photos - just like that ... :-)

Four days and five nights ...

If anyone ever tells you doing art is for lazy people, don't believe them ...

During my original voyage into primal magic - which is where primal art came from! - I happened across Voodoo and the idea that the original idea of "the creator" comes into being when you shape a humanoid figure from clay with your own fair hands ...

This is the start of many things including the art dolls. This is a repost of the original article from SH.com which wanted to be on this website - so welcome to my spirit friends on 1-art.eu :-)

Nature is always beautiful but every so often, it has a special surprise - or perhaps I'm just in the right frame of mind at that time ...

This is a collection of images taken this morning on the way to record "Crown of Lights" on May 4th 2012 featuring grass, weeds, and water droplets - daily diamonds, as the story goes ...

Art is a very personal journey. And every so often, there are these priceless experiences that one really can't put into words. I guess that's the difference between painting and sculpting and writing about after the fact ...

At any rate, whilst working on the "Damian Hirst" symbol painting, I had a moment of revelation ...

Inspired by Will Taylor's new album, I found myself wanting to make a spirit doll (art doll) for the first time in a long time. I was surprised by this but also very happy because the process of making these little sculptures is nothing like anything else I've ever done.

So meet the Sand Shaman and his story ...

I've heard tell that as a painter, the holy grail is to "get a reaction from the audience."

Well I can proudly report that a person had a nervous breakdown over one of my paintings and was "overcome by the painting" to the degree that they spent about an hour hyperventilating, trembling and crying ...

Meteorites - messengers from the very beginning of the Universe - are wonderful things.

Here is a WonderWorlds gallery of magical meteorites to tune in and enjoy.

Now I get a lot of spell requests, but the one single spell most requested above all is "What spell do I use to get my Ex back?" I've always been dubious about this but there is a way to make these spells to get back those who have told you they don't love you anymore (!) actually work - and also, why they generally fail if you don't know this.

Many new EFT practitioners are scared and worried about taking on cancer patients. This is very understandable for many reasons. Amongst those are the fear of being seen to promise a "cure for cancer" - which EFT of course is not; but there are also other fears which include being frightened of the enormity of the problem, of cancer itself, of handling not being able to "heal a person of cancer" miraculously, of the emotions involved, and also, the fear of cancer itself.

However, when we address these fears - which are only energy blockages, energy reversals and energy injuries, after all - we can find that working with cancer patients is one of the most rewarding, energizing, uplifting and beautiful experiences a modern energy practitioner can have.

EFT does not cure cancer; but EFT can help cancer patients in so many different ways to feel better, feel stronger and have a different experience altogether as they move through the various phases of their treatments.

This important EFT case story by Denise Jacques shows that EFT practitioners need not be afraid of working with cancer patients and that wonderful, positive, beneficial results occur when we address the energy system with EFT.

Kelly Burch writes: A few months ago I learned about something called Autogenic Habitats. I had no idea what this was at first. In fact I had to Google to find the definition of the word "autogenic". It means: "self-generating" or "from within".

So these habitats were literally places that I could create from within myself?

Intriguing.

A poem about a magic carpet - a very special kind of magic carpet, to be sure ...

What better way to start the new collection of magic images with the symbol for magic? Only, there's more than one ... Let's start with the basics therefore, global magic symbols that declare there's a magician here and magic is being done, such as the pentacle, the pentagram, the spiral and the energy magic symbol.

Yes, well, what do I say to this?

It seems my art is different by design ...

Check this out, see if you can "spot the real StarFields" amongst this little lot.

Spring has sprung!

Here is a lovely bright spring flower collection of seamless repeating background images of daffodils, tulips, bluebells, quince, violets, pansies and more to brighten any day.

Meteorites are amazing things - and even more so if you slice them up real thin and photograph them in various ways and under polarized light.

Then meteorites reveal themselves as beautiful crystal cathedral windows ... back to a time when the universe began ... and begging to be made into a variety of seamless repeating background fills, textures and patterns.

The "Celebration" design for the 10th Anniversary EmoTrance Conference.

EmoTrance is an amazing modality; indeed there would be no 1-art.eu website without it.

For ten years, EmoTrance has been flying under the radar, being used as a modern research tool which has already brought about massive changes - well, we might as well call them what they are, a real paradigm shift in the theory and practice of modern energy work.

So the theme was, "It's time to let the genie out of the bottle!"
