Divine Moon Muser, Jen (Raina) Merritt
Divine Moon Muser, Jen Merritt took part in my online eCourse Awaken Your Divine Feminine Soul recently and had these comments to share:
This course has been the first real shake-up of my inner spiritual eye.
A few months ago I decided to set up a Giveaway on my Persephone’s Awakening website and in my promotion of the contest, I came across a posting in the Etsy Forums about a new online course called Awaken Your Divine Feminine Soul. It was a timely arrival, as it fell right along the lines of what I needed right now: self-discovery involving creative juices and perhaps even some spiritual development. There’s that whole Biopsychosocialspiritual framework that we learned about in Social Worker School and one that I am trying to infuse in my life. It’s something that I feel I have been neglecting, especially in relation to the spiritual side of things. I joined up for this moon musing course with the hopes that it could help guide me in my continued exploration. As an artist, I sometimes run into blocks mostly formed by my own expectations and lack of time.
Awaken the Divine Feminine helped me by giving me more of a focus and also some tools with which to move forward in my world, artistically, spiritually and as a more in-tune woman. I now have an interest in Yoga and not just the physical aspects, but the inherent spiritual and mental aspects of the practice. I also have a faery guided meditation that I listen to sometimes at night to help me ease into the sleeping world. I’m hoping that what I’ve learned from this course will continue to steer my creativity wherever it may need to go.
In the meantime, my Etsy shop is where my creative objects end up looking for a new, loving home.

Tell us about your craft and/or the items in your shop. Much like my real life, I seem to be unable to focus on one thing for very long. Right now I make crocheted scarves, beachglass necklaces, button necklaces, and I have a few totebags left over from the summer. I’d love to narrow down my practice a bit, but I don’t seem to be able to. Next journey: I am taking a sabbatical from producing items, as I am moving to England and want to spend some time making creative things just for me.

What is your favourite material to work with? I have a really hard time narrowing anything down. I started out making purses, so I have an affinity for fabric, but I would have to say that what I love most right now is beach glass. The thrill of the hunt is fantastic!
