ABOUT ME

Who Am I?

Hi, I'm Ravenari, or Moonvoice, take your pick!

I'm a young woman, in my mid-twenties, who probably spends more time than the average spiritual person journeying, working with animal energies and my ancestors, seeking to understand my place in this world and hopefully helping others along the way. I am learning to become a healer, even as I struggle to heal myself.

I live in Perth, Western Australia, and love this land and landscape, as well as the spirits that I feel I have been privileged to meet upon my journey. I love the beaches and the bushland, the forest and the sclerophyll scrubland, I love the harsher deserts and I've even found a place in my heart for some of the more rural and suburban aspects of this country.

My daily life is pretty boring. I am currently on a disability pension for post-traumatic stress disorder, and invest a lot of my time (and pension) into therapy for healing work. It's ongoing. I'm with my loving partner Glen who I've been with for over 5 years. He is not spiritual, but has an open mind and compassionate heart, he helps me to try and become a better person. I often fall short of my own expectations. I also have a degree in media studies / analysis and creative writing, I have learnt a lot from this, though I may not use it in my final 'career.'

My aim is to one day become successful artist and writer, so that I am able to support myself through creating visual and written stories for others and myself. In the meantime I am saving for mundane things like my own home, so that I may create my own space. I am hoping for a rich (not necessarily financially) future where I am able to overcome some of my mental dysfunctions and physical diseases / problems. I have had a lot of surgeries in my lifetime, some I probably shouldn't have survived, and while I consider myself blessed to still be here, I admit that I can be just as pessimistic and depressed as the next person.

I am interested in educating people and myself, and have learnt that confrontational methods help no one and reflect my own deeper insecurities.

In the meantime, I will continue bushwalking, having good times with my friends and partner and family, reading wonderful books and listening to great music. I will also continue shamanising, working spiritually and maintaining this site!

Walk well and wisely on your path.
