Remembering Meyrene Cowell

In 1998, someone asked me to contemplate the question, "Who am I?" When I removed all the labels such as daughter, wife, mother and teacher and then, even my name too, I realised how vulnerable I was. I wondered what was left of 'me'? That was the catalyst that began my search for the Greater Me - my eternal Spirit-self. As I searched, listened and read, I gained new belief systems that were wider than religion and more liberating than my social conditioning. The greatest freedom came though, when I finally understood the language of symbols; especially those used in the ancient Marseilles Tarot Pack. I spent almost twenty years exploring the blueprint of the archetypes that are embedded in these cards. Each of the 22 major arcana cards took me on a deep souljourney towards consciousness, knowledge and a change of heart. What I discovered was that I am more than I could ever have imagined and so are you. When we become conscious of painful and inhibiting beliefs that no longer serve us, we begin a journey into loving acceptance of 'self' and others too.
