I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

My name is Sunny. I was born on Vashon Island in Washington State, and I lived there until I went away to college. I am a doula (childbirth assistant), and a pediatric occupational therapist. I am also a Reiki Master, and use Reiki in both my work as a doula and an occupational therapist. We just moved to Flagstaff, AZ and we are really enjoying the wonderful winter weather!

You are the World

Completion, Good Reward.

The World is the final card of the Major Arcana, and as such represents saturnian energies, time, and completion.

The World card pictures a dancer in a Yoni (sometimes made of laurel leaves). The Yoni symbolizes the great Mother, the cervix through which everything is born, and also the doorway to the next life after death. It is indicative of a complete circle. Everything is finally coming together, successfully and at last. You will get that Ph.D. you've been working for years to complete, graduate at long last, marry after a long engagement, or finish that huge project. This card is not for little ends, but for big ones, important ones, ones that come with well earned cheers and acknowledgements. Your hard work, knowledge, wisdom, patience, etc, will absolutely pay-off; you've done everything right.
