Comme l'exemple du sage; La fortune sourit aux audacieux
As the wise one's say; fortune favors the bold
Il est temps de prendre un saut aventureux vers l'avenir cette année bissextile
It's time to take an adventurous leap towards the future this leap year
It's unfortunate for those who still haven't grasped their true value and self-worth to watch them throw themselves to the wolves after the cleansing purge of the ascension cycle that arrived in 2012-2015. They've already sacrificed themselves to the darkness in the most inconceivable forms and in return they've already submitted to a future and life fixated on spiritual death and endless sorrow and uncertainty. To open one's self to the darkness to allow one's mind to be washed over and over again to then accept that the devil himself is in fact your best friend, while those who have always provided light in your darkest times now being labeled as your mortal enemies, it placates to show that those that walk in the shadows of gray pretending to be light when they're actually the epitome of un-channeled darkness mimicking that of the baby rattle snake; violently biting anybody that tries to help it as it's left in the cold long nights of desert winter, no realizing that it's also lashing out at the only resources that ever cared to flow effortlessly, freely and lovingly in healing dispensation.
As darkness wanes in Ostara's brilliant new dawn, the sleeping earth and all of her hibernating children, forge through the fires of twilight to find new purpose in the ever flowing and changing existence in life. For those Springs Arrival, is the time that the earth and the darkness fade away to the glorious unending light that permeates and ultimately conquers all in this world and in the cosmos that desire to live inauthentically, in pursuit of self versus the pursuit of wholeness and oneness. To shake off the depression, seasonal affective disorder and so many other negative introspection's that collect over the dark months of the year.
From Spring cleaning to worshiping the body in holistic health, staying true to The Rubenesque Transformation, is still the core of my life here at BellaBloodLust HQ, from pursuing my wildest dreams in hopes of ultimate change for humanity as a whole progressing towards a future for all, to the endless array of exciting plans I have to share over the coming months in person at events, conventions and many other odd project locations this bohemian gothic soul loves to help bring to life with other creative mysterious types. Keep your eyes peeled for feathered fans, jeweled corsets, pasties and heels, this silk siren looks forward to her debut that is approaching soon in the next chapter of The Scarlet Queens exciting adventures in the classic art of Burlesque!
It's time to take a leap, to a new location, into a new chapter of life as well as the coming completion of multiple books, to pursue my wildest dreams as a traveling burlesque gypsy of the night, to transforming the world with my spiritual heart, soul and healing abilities as the one and only Psychic Bella. This is the year to do it, to do whatever it is your heart desires to do, make this your mantra and say it with me "2016 is my year, Long Live The Scarlet Queen!"
As the wise one's say "Fortune favors the Bold" Take a leap, it's leap year after all.
The Expansion of BellaBloodLust HQ Continues:
There's truly so much to celebrate at HQ, We've had quite the successful year that for any artist, model, writer and creative type can't be measured in ways that the neurotypical mind can grasp, we truly visualize and see the world and time in a circular way, not linear. For this profound spiritual understanding the universe rewards and plays in kind, knowing that we've glimpsed beyond the veil and realize fully that this is all but a dream within a dream, so why not pursue it fully knowing that in the end, more magick than you can possibly fathom is awaiting you, if only you'll believe that this roller coaster ride of uncertainty will eventually release one's blindfold to leave them in awe of what was created by their very own mind that's now solidified in the tangible physical world.
From celebrating 2 glorious years here at BellaBloodLustHQ to find that my passion for Comics and Cosplay has turned into a full blown creative outlet has been beyond my wildest dreams. From preparing multiple costumes for Cosplay Events to debuting my Comic, Trading Cards and Collectible Posters at Zapp Con 3 later this year, to opening a worldwide Parisian Patisserie that's been a long life dream of mine since early culinary youth, there's so many projects continuing and finding traction and foundation as the year begins. I've always wanted to open a bakery with Paris in mind, after exploring years of history and courtesans that inspired the Old World to live lavishly, I found myself creating my dream right before my very eyes to debut with you to enjoy whenever your sweet tooth needs a taste of Royalty.
In the midst of my modeling pursuits and continuing to expand my portfolio for professional purposes, I found myself published in not one but two magazines these year, one of which added to the international infamy of The Scarlet Queen and providing an entirely new level to my work and creative outlet that's now turned into an additional dream and career pursuit. For those inspired to adore me up close and personal Purchase The September Issue of Femme Rebelle Magazine UK & The October Issue of Delicious Dolls Magazine USA, Today. While lingering in the Autumn Sunlight with dearest friends and kinship family, the love of my life and I both found ourselves featured in the award winning Canne's Film Festival debut of "Steamdream" featuring The Gaslamp Society as we indulged in our traditional Victorian Cemetery Picnic, more on that wonderful success is found below along with an upcoming event you can't afford to pass up.
For over three years now I've been a devout naked reader, and as a writer and bibliophile it was more than exciting to hear news from The Read Naked Salon Waitlist Crew, that a dear friend of mine, the gorgeous Joie de Vivre, from The Valley Burlesque Society and those of us here at BellaBloodlustHQ, have been officially added to the waitlist and will be opening our very own chapter and naked reading salon very soon as well as Burlesque performances to adorn this liberating literary movement. By far the pinnacle of success for me as a writer came from the one and only A.N Roquelaure, however many of you may know her best as Anne Rice, after reviewing her stunning series of BDSM erotica known lovingly as "The Sleeping Beauty Quartet" she not only shared and debuted my insightful review to those of her fans and audience, but she also sent it as invaluable real life research to Television and Motion Picture Corporations to ensure that the world was well versed in both erotic fiction and real life accounts of The BDSM Lifestyle. As an Anthropologist this was an amazing credit to my work in the BDSM community for over the past decade and a half of apprenticeship, servitude as a slave, submissive, Switch and ultimately as a Professional Mistress and Dominatrix. As you can see The Scarlet Queen has many shades.
As the year dawns at 2016, I find myself overjoyed with so many projects that I've recommitted to to ensure their survival, and to hope that my work, visionary experiences and pursuits in art, performance, modeling and writing expands in ways still unseen to those of you still watching, with velvet adorned front row seats. From new content added to The Scarlet Gardens, more writing for not one but two novels in the process as of now, expansions in my Youtube Channel and so much more that I have cooking up in my sensual cauldron, there's only four little words that will be uttered in 2016...
Long Live The Queen!

with Psychic Bella
As January arrives much swifter than I could've imagined, I find myself prepared for Winter at Fresno City College, and by ensuring that all preparations for returning to school are finalized, I must once more align my clients with my current schedule changes. Even as Spring approaches, to ensure many tasks are completed for clients in need I'll be changing these hours until April of 2016. I'll be CLOSED Monday-Fridays for appointments but will still be taking appointments, answering phone calls and booking new and returning clients from the hours of 12pm-8pm Monday-Friday and seeing clients who've booked appointments during the week on Weekends from 12pm-Midnight. As much as I dislike reducing my hours I realize this provides a chance for pondering clients to be more decisive with their choices as the year of 2016 provides chances for us all to be more courageous with our choices instead of allowing our lives to pass us by with indecision and uncertainty. Thank you to the wonderful clients I have that make it so easy to help you while also pursuing major life goals that will in turn allow Psychic Bella to become Psychic Detective Bella!
Summer Classes Debut & Workshops in Progress:
I've had numerous requests for Introduction to Psychic Protection, Introduction to Psychic Abilities, & Child Development for Sapphire, Indigo, Rainbow & Crystal Children for quite some time now, for those looking for Tai Chi with Animal Friends, visit the Featured Products section in The Old World Shoppe. As more materials were required for thorough research purposes before I can complete the following workshops and classes so until I can afford to do so these are currently on hold until further notice, but I'm positive that prosperity will change along with the winds and those materials needed will be easily required. I'll be focusing time to ensuring these workshops are completed hopefully by Summers arrival, keep your eyes peeled for announcements, until then this is still a work in progress.
The Rubenesque Revolution
Workshop Late Winter 2016
In addition to these wonderful classes I'm also in the process of developing a four class Self Esteem, Body & Sexuality Positive & Female Empowerment Workshop Series, that expands The Rubenesque Revolution to women locally and worldwide to gain invaluable insight, life changing exercises, assignments and group exercises to develop positive female relationships inside and outside the fourth generation wave of feminism. We must embrace the female goddess within and in turn embrace it in each and every single woman that is a walking goddess incarnate, whether she knows it or not. By engaging in a female gathering group workshop series that will expand your mind, body and soul to make room for self love, sacred femininity and sacred sexuality allows each and every one of us to bring about the next phase in human and female interpersonal ascension and global consciousness. By removing the stigmas, skewed viewpoints, and oppressive views of women worldwide we create the world we truly want to live in, the one that celebrates the beauty of woman in all her divine glory. This will be available as soon as additional materials are gathered for this incredibly special workshop series.

Exclusive Access Into My World:

The Illusive Bella BloodLust
Old World Goddess in The Modern Era
This usually keeps me limited to Tower District area as well as carpooling with friends and family on special occasions as it's the only affordable way to travel in this city after hours, with Taxi's costing as much as a half a weeks worth of vegan groceries for a 20 minute ride it's easy to see on a student's, psychic's and artist's budget as to why Psychic Bella & Bella BloodLust are truly home bound for the time being. Fortunately Uber and Lyft are making things a bit easier, however we do intend on having a more than functional mode of transportation by the end of the Gregorian calendar year. Unless special preparations are made in advanced it's usually not possible for me to venture out after dark unless it's nearby. I am appreciative of the simplistic and old world way my life is lead currently but that doesn't mean it doesn't have it's common struggles, as time consuming as mundane and regular tasks usually are, they're quadrupled in time amounts when the city bus is the only method of travel presently, so do forgive me for my inability to see each and every one of you as much as I desire, as much as I plan, but as most of us that live and thrive in this part of the city already realize, once you live in Bohemia it's hard to leave just like the alluring draw of Moulin Rouge, we thrive in the twinkling lights, and creative expressions of art, music, dancing and performance art, so do forgive me if I find it hard to ever leave this place I truly call home.

Goals & Dreams for The Future
AA Degree in Criminal Anthropology
Anthropology is the study of human beings, it bridges the gap between societal, religious, cultural and linguistic gaps that have long been needed to be bridged to assure we all transcend to a more Unitarian existence, allowing the psychic to also become the scientist to not only broaden the world and understanding for clients in a more scientific as well as merging their already understood natural sciences to allow each field to finally accept and embrace each other regardless of terminology. This will eventually allow me to be able to help clients even with medical insurance instead of just having to pay out of pocket which is a big problem with Western Society, that Holistic Medicine is seen secondary to Traditional, in Eastern Societies it's revered and we wonder why everybody in India & Japan live to be 120 years old without cancer, diabetes or obesity. This also allows me to pursue and help my spiritual clients in all aspects not just the spiritual and religious sector, as much as I very much enjoy this, as a Shaman I've innately felt until all religions and philosophical concepts are understood and shared completely we all have missing puzzle pieces and bridges that need to be connected, this is where Psychic Bella comes in.
BS in Criminology & Victimology with a Minor in Psychology
This avenue of educational pursuits will allow me to transfer my abilities to assisting in more cold cases and other cases involving dead or alive circumstances in the field of victomology, by having a dual degree in forensics I'll be able to transfer helping people and various cultures, and religious backgrounds to be seen correctly by the criminal justice department and also bridge the gaps by solving cases as a Psychic Detective, after already assisting off-record with previous officers and actually being the key person that helped solve the cases, it's been told to me by more than a few officers that they'd legally use and pay me as an independent detective and investigator that will allow me to work from home, be called to crime scenes or domestic disputes and finally allow families to rest once they've had their case or common issue solved. With the best criminology lab and brand new facility here only in Fresno and West Virginia, I consider myself lucky to have the opportunity to receive such quality training and education that allows me to help but not become one of those typical cops, Sorry I quite literally refuse to participate I'm here to solve cases and help people, keep the pride to badges to yourself I'm just not interested. If undergraduate funding hopefully prevails above the congressional and bureaucratic red tape that most of us students find ourselves in, I'll consider pursuing a Master's Degree in my chosen fields, however as of now I highly doubt in this country at least that that will be possible without massive life long student loan debt, which I can't qualify for due to a family members desire to steal my identity before I was even allowed to use it at while being introduced to American adulthood.
Modern Gypsy Revolution! The Tiny House Movement
As much as I planned on staying in Sunny California after obtaining my Master's Degree, I realize now unless I plan on teaching or becoming a Doctor, the wasted money, time and effort isn't truly necessary especially in my unique carved path line of work. As many continue to see the devastating effect on water, lack of resources such as food, energy and even healthcare that is now a daily focus for most during the California Drought, the costs of resources continues to rise, and the value of career security or even the worker as more than property is completely lost in today's society. We're working much harder for far less than we've ever had ever before in human history and to be honest when jobs, healthcare, housing, education and even good weather and health dry up, it really starts inspiring one to think outside the societal box and embrace a movement that's been sweeping this country as swiftly as the Homesteading Act did in the early 19th century. There is a sense of hope, possibilities and endless opportunities when you're not enslaved to Water & Power, A Mortgage and Bills that continue to rise regardless of how much you personally sacrifice. I've always loved traveling and so has my Twin Flame, and for us the idea of packing up and taking off to better places when the economy tanks is much better than worrying about paying off a mortgage, car loans and student loans in the future if we're even able to get that far in our education with the current congress dilemma of their utter hatred for funding social programs of any kind. This is a long term goal, 5 or 10 at least, but it's a very real dream that we're ready to research, embrace and join, it just makes sense in a world that's always changing to thrive by adapting instead of dying for damaging views on the way things have to be thanks to the standards of The Eisenhower Era, no longer are we stuck in the kitchen while men work 9 to 5 and women serve them dinner, so why stay stuck in the same house if we're used to going out for dinner now? Many Updates coming, for now this dream sits in the crock pot of my imagination to simmer.
Successful in Business & Health
Currently as Psychic Bella & also Head Marketer for Imij Medicine, I'm truly busy 7 days a week, I currently accept appointments on Weekends only, for in-person spiritual bookings and online ones for international clients. I intend on keeping my Phone/Email inquiries open from Mondays through Fridays to ensure that weekend bookings are solidified and that clients are able to make decisive actions towards the betterment of their lives, as they say Carpe Diem, this is the theme of 2016. The rest of the time my energy is shared between collegiate pursuits, and assisting my love in our mutual dreams and business pursuits. This is why advanced planning is needed for social outings and even Shadows Into Light Spiritual Services Bookings, as the months and seasons change so does my traveling gypsy soul, and I'm truly needed out there in the big world so please join us and enjoy the ever changing and prosperous scenery. Besides these pursuits I have my enjoyable times as Writer, Model, Artist, Siren, & Performance Artist, these times are few and far in between but as time goes by and opportunity knocks I'm grateful when good health is along with me to pursue these dreams.
New Business - The Grand Opening Of:
Strawberry Coquette's Wild Bohemian Patisserie
As I approached my 3 year Vegan Anniversary I found myself elated to expand my personal baking business into a legitimate side-business; for over two years now I've been perfecting and concocting the most profoundly delicious vegan desserts and have even now expanded to Gluten Free, Raw, Paleo-Vegan Friendly Desserts! After receiving serve-safe certification in food courses to ensure that I know how to conduct a healthy and food safe kitchen I found that having all of these incredible, healthy and dietary restriction friendly recipes to be too good not to share! After many compliments and encouraging words from friends, family and even complete strangers that are 1000% against desserts without dairy, eggs or animal products tell me that my baked goods are the best thing they've ever tried, I've decided to turn my top recipes list into a menu for an at-home place to order bakery prepared and shared by your's truly; Strawberry Vixen. As much as I intended to have this venture up and off the ground before Winter, unfortunately a few business related investments are needed to ensure that my decadent vegan treats are served fresh to you at the highest quality possible. So hopefully by Summers arrival a cute little pastry cart pushed by Strawberry Coquette herself will be wandering around Tower District to tease and tantalize those who crave a taste of Paris.
Health
I have to admit it's been quite the roller coaster ride, for most of my life P.C.O.S has ruled my life, after a tubal ligation last year I had to then endure recalibrating these hormones that went from nearly depleted to insanely voracious all on a moment's notice, and usually between menstrual cycles and the joys that come along with PMS. Fortunately with only 1 instead of 3 Emergency Room visits this year due to a cyst burst and severe pain, I have to admit things are getting better, slowly but surely, and as I await to see if my former Cushing's Syndrome a rare form of pituitary cancer is officially in remission, I find myself focused on balance, of mind, body, soul and most importantly diet. With the wayward hormones of last year causing my energy and vitamins to tank once a month I found myself craving meat again, so transitioning to ovo-lacto-pescatarianism, once a month during my rabid cycle was what I relied on for the last eight months of 2015. As pain and exercise don't go well together I also had to relax a lot more on my health regimens that desired, allowing me to relax, and retrain myself to be patient and kind to my body even more so than I already am. As my energy has tanked a bit due to this change I've chosen to go back to veganism, as vitamins are no longer an issue nor is health or weight. If anything I've gained a bit back and as much as I'm truly fine with that, I'd prefer to stay at the weight I initially hit, it's what helped me to feel more mobile, agile and ready to pursue athletic dreams once more such as Burlesque. So as I just received stellar reports back from both urine and blood tests showing that the pain endured each month isn't a side effect of a cancer coming back to ravage my body but just what happens when cycles and hormones are still balancing, I embrace the days where health is optimal and when times aren't as fluid and effortless, I've formed regimens of pure, unadulterated relaxation that have allowed my creative self to express in many old and new facets while also giving me more time to let ideas simmer before instantaneously jumping at the first second of innovation to pursue yet another project that hasn't quite yet been finished. Slow and Steady wins the Race, this is the lesson of the Turtle, my Totem Animal this year. I embrace this time in life more completely than I ever have conceivably before.
Always at Home with Eternal Twin Flame Love...
Home is always with You
For years my gypsy heart has hoped to wander the world searching and eventually finding the one I love, fortunately I was lucky enough to move into Tower District, the place I always hoped to call home, on Valentine's Day of 2012, never knowing just weeks away how my entire life would change, from moving into a smaller place with my fiance of seven years, to starting college and living in the coolest place in this washed up town, I never knew I'd find my beloved Twin Flame, feeling his energy before soon speaking online, knowing that he was only a few blocks away from my very own place I called home.
An entire universe was destroyed and created from the ashes of my former existence in just four years, I found myself brave enough to follow my heart, my ultimate desires and wildest dreams and every single day since life has been better than the best of dreams. It hasn't been easy, in fact it's been filled with the most life changing challenges I never even knew I could endure much less thrive beyond in the precipice of hopes, dreams and better tomorrow's. I found the courage to fall in love completely, and now I find the courage to move in with the man I call home, so that we can build our own home together from now until eternity.
I can't begin to express in detail just yet about this subject of leap years and taking a leap towards your hearts guidance for an entire article on the subject and special day is being written as you read these very lines, so until then enjoy the show and prepare yourself for the adventure of a lifetime that I hope inspires you to create and follow your own.
Just remember, wherever there is love, you are already home.
Until We Meet Again...
I celebrate The Rubenesque Revolution, and relish in the progress, projects and creative pursuits that have taken place successfully thus far while further fires burn in the hearth of my sensual and spiritual home to brew and simmer over the long winter months and the time of darkness and peace as the dawning of a new age and new year arrive here in this world and my very own home I frolic and feast to the fullest embracing life in all its horror and divinity.
There's so much more to get your fill in the menagerie of places I've created for one and all to enjoy. I look forward to your inquiries, your contributions and suggestions and for those who are already well entertained, buckle up for a very wild ride; adorned in wild roses and thorns what else my darling? *smiles* for this world and those we create are filled with both pleasure and pain in equal measure and as for me I relish in this silver spoon and feast on the oysters that have been left out freshly harvested for this adventurous feline.
Thank you eternally for your support and for those that desire to tear it apart, I look forward to watching the Old World burn down with you inside as The New Golden Age of Humanity is finally here.
Toujours Sanglante,
Bella BloodLust
