Maasaisis
is the creative source from which flows music and art. Together
they bring light to the individual and find their ultimate inspiration
in the themes of Isis- great Egyptian Goddess of Light, Love and
Healing. Isis is the mother of all Goddesses. Embodying the power
of the feminine, she became the archetype for creation. My connection
with Isis came by way of a waking dream in the Peruvian Amazon in
1996. It was an incredibly profound experience that left me feeling
much more aware of my own existence. In the dream a Goddess appeared
in a radiant light, unfolding her golden wings around me. Having
never before known of the great Goddess, I was instantly overwhelmed
by an unquestionable sense of familiarity... I knew she was Isis,
the great mother who had come to share with me her personal mystery
intertwined with mine. The mystery being who she truly is and what
role she would play in my days and years to come. I felt compelled
to clarify some of my own questions that had gone unanswered for
some time including the most profound
query of them all… Who am I? I began singing in an unknown
language that was unlike anything I have ever heard before. I allowed
myself to completely unravel with the mysterious sounds spilling
out of my mouth. I felt the millions of life creating music in the
jungle merging with me and the sound I was creating. With that came
the awakening moment of realizing that I was a part of absolutely
everything! I could feel the pulse of the universe pumping my heart
and a feeling of utter peace spread throughout my entirety. I was
both experiencing and observing this happening simultaneously. Knowing
without
a doubt that this was the truth of MY mystery. I was discovering
the light by embracing all things as they are. The parts of me that
felt insignificant and overwhelmed and disconnected were all part
of the package of everything! Isis came to me as an entity but in
reality, She is a state of consciousness. I was embracing myself
with my own wings all along! It was like coming home from a long,
long journey. Within this awakening, Maasaisis was born. Since that
day forth, with that profound experience close at heart my intention
is to spread light through my creativity.
