A Formal Underworld Introduction 
with Mistress Bella 

For most who are well informed, the title Mistress Bella BloodLust makes even the coldest blood burn in a fiery passion that ceases to end for centuries, I am just one of many of these dark, salacious, creatures of the night, for where does one such as I come from in the first place?

We are born into this world of kink and depravity and we find ourselves enamored by those who find potential in us and are eager to watch us grow. This delicious book collaborates eons and centuries of articles, secret stories whispered to men and women in the backroom bars late at night in Old Bohemia to provide a historical sequence and coded index of the entire history, arts and immortal legend that one evokes into this physical realm when one takes on the scarlet name of Dominatrix, Domme, Domina or as I prefer to be titled, Mistress.

Where one would usually spend a life time trying to track down these intimate details of so many wonderfully talented purveyors of pleasure seemed to have in abundance to the ripe history, and solid future that still entails many in this world behind the dark velvet curtain. For those searching for an archivists dream in a single novel this book is ripe and waiting for you to pluck it down from the forbidden fruit tree and add it to your eternal collection. 

Anne O Nomis has done what every single one of us ladies of the night wished we had the time for, if so many unruly slaves weren't in need of a firm and disciplined hand, perhaps we'd have gotten to such a journey first. *smiles* Instead of spending a lifetime searching for that exact article or book that referred to the 17th century in Rococo France, instead find it here along with so many other endless personal interviews and historical art plates that one would never lay their eyes upon until now, for they were hidden from society, in the underground archives of world famous collectors and private libraries with rare access for only the bold and curious to find. An entire adventure into the world we hold so dear lies within the gold leafed pages of this illustrious work. Don't believe me? Purchase a copy of the book yourself here: [Click Here]

The History & Arts Of The Dominatrix
by Anne O Nomis 

Below is the reviewed details of the book itself written by the mysterious author, I feel she captures in detail what is entailed within this wonderful and treasured book in my erotic collection, perhaps she can further persuade you into this delicious world of BDSM and the history and arts of the dominatrix. 
​"The History & Arts of the Dominatrix is the first book of its kind, documenting the Dominatrix's history and practices as 'arts'.  Positively reviewed by industry magazines, Dominatrices themselves, and library review journals, the book has been referred to as the 'Dominatrix's bible'.  

Its elusive author Anne O Nomis (a word-play on anonymous) has a Masters degree in Comparative Art and Archaeology from UCL (University College London). She spent four years researching the underground history of the Dominatrix, drawing from sources in the British Library's Rare Books collection of 18th and 19th Century 'forbidden books', museum artwork, newspapers, vintage sources and prints, which are illustrated in full-colour within this historic volume.  

Nomis traces the ancient roots of the Dominatrix to sacred rituals to Goddesses of sexuality. A hymn to the Goddess Inanna of Mesopotamia features rituals of gender transformation, punishment, pain and ecstasy, recorded in clay cunneiform tablets. The authorship of the hymns is linked to the high en-priestess Enheduanna, regarded by many as the first recorded author in history. The hymns are seen in context against artworks of the Goddess in power poses, her body language akin to those which modern-day Dominatrices adopt.

Into the English history record, the secular profession appears in books from the 17th Century, with flagellation prints of the Dominatrix in role of 'Whipstress' and 'School-Mistress'. The ladies providing birch discipline were interlinked with royalty, nobility, parliamentarians and secret societies. By the 19th Century, London held 20 sumptuously appointed discipline houses, run by 'Governess' Dominatrices, one of whom invented a special machine for whipping, known as the Berkley Horse.

In the 20th Century, the book presents rare vintage snapshots of mid-20th Century ladies of the 'bizarre underground' in time, space and place, from London, New York, The Hague and The Herbertstrasse.   
Lastly, Nomis examines the contemporary occupation of the modern-day Dominatrix, and contributes a theory of their 'Seven Realm Arts' characterizing their practices in a framework beyond the catch-all term of BDSM.  
Since being published, 'The History & Arts of the Dominatrix' has become the 'curriculum book' for Mistress training around the world, including the world's oldest BDSM training chateau, La Domaine Esemar, near New York.

Illustrated with artwork and 86+ images from the British Museum, Iraq Museum, Penn Museum, Oriental Institute of Chicago, Fitzwilliam Museum of Cambridge University, Villa of Mysteries Pompeii, British Library Rare Books, Library of Congress Washington DC, National Portrait Gallery, Yale Center for British Art, Kinsey Institute, with vintage images by artist John Willie from Bélier Press, vintage Dominatrices from DDI Magazine, Atom Age and private collection, contemporary artwork by Natasha Gornik, Kate Peters, Phil Miller, Nuit' d'Or and Lucina Nathanael.

SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION HARDCOVER: Design inspired by the Victorian 'forbidden book', with gold foil and quarter-bound, accentuating the art of book fetish. Limited edition of 2,000 copies only, each individually numbered.

Also available as an e-book / kindle, however without the beautiful design format of the hardcopy due to limitations of software associated with e-books.
5 star reviews, and editorial reviews by DDI Magazine, Massad Magazine, Leatherati, Library Journal and more."

Chapter I: The Ancient Dominatrix Goddess 
​and her Priestess Initiates 

Picture
As a historian I've always been immersed in the search of ancient and arcane cultures, customs and ritual traditions when it came to sexuality and spiritual orders, we have so often in our current contemporary neglect, forgotten where this ideology of consensual nonconsent came from in the first place, a midst Pagan Rome, Greece and many other tribal cultures worldwide that catered to harems, bathhouses and the like, we often lose our roots and history as Domina's never quite remember that holidays such as Saternalia in Rome were featured to display the brutal and wanted exchange of typical slaves being owners of their slave masters for one night a year.

​This transformed an entire culture and region in our Old World into consensual slavery, it wasn't forced upon those except for the rare cases in lower classes that it was, but for most this type of life was sought out, just as many pursued medicine, logic and reason in the halls of the old senate, these sacred, scarlet priestesses initiated many sacred women into religious bath houses to cater to the needs, wants, desires and perversity that warriors craved after or before a brutal war, these women provided a way to heal through pleasure when the world around these men crumbled with each new reigning king. So often we have lost our roots in this dark leather and latex clad community but the divine path of those who still practice this form of domination lives on, usually in the tropical and Mediterranean cities that these societies ruled over eons ago, perhaps their passionate cries of pleasure and pain can still be heard in the halls of nettle adorned bath houses where men begged for more lashings until they could beg no more.

​Where so many authors overlook this invaluable piece of insight that I love to personally indulge others in when social conversations of this nature arise, Anne O Nomis took the much needed time to research a world that I personally have researched since my early teens. I applaud her immense project and hard work to have found such rich history in this part of the dominatrix's background. 

Chapter II: The Female Flaggelant Governesses in the
Seventeenth to Nineteenth Centuries

Picture
Picture
Picture
For so many Mistresses in this world, we often resonate here in the classic Victorian setting of when kink really took it's foothold in proper society. You see when things become too proper, well they turn to boring and eventually that repression of one's primal carnality finds ways to explore such games of pain, pleasure and mind fuckery and for many ladies in this era, being known as a Mistress wasn't something that was passed around publicly, from coded business cards to even the most elaborate ways of finding these women by word of mouth through clever ads placed in the local paper, it wasn't easy to be one of these ladies who were considered blasphemous to the traditions of propriety in their time, if anything they became quite the scandal and were isolated to various regions of England and France that were well known for such games, for many of us we find idealized versions of these women's stories in film, fashion, music and even television series however the very real rise to power and ultimately greater fall was never really researched by many modern courtesans of the new age. For this and many more skilled interviews found from this ear and shared in art form as well as old newspaper print this chapter really resonates with me and inspires me to watch where I place my heels before walking so that I can continue to do so for centuries to come. Anne O Nomis does a wonderful job tabulating all of these fine, ornate and detailed records into a chronological and whimsical history of those who were most well known for being Governesses with firm disciplined hands. 

Chapter III: The Bizarre Underground Ladies of the
Twentieth-Century Underground

Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
For most Modern Lifestylers and Kink Experimenters the Modern Contemporary Scene provides a rich tapestry of fetishes, rituals and games a midst an endless array of subs, slaves and switches who desire to transforms, transmute and transcend to the next level of release in a menagarie and bazaar of  activities that for many of those who specialize in a particular passion from a certain era to be overwhelmed with the constant scene of fusion in the form of performance art shows, cabaret clubs and the like, but for many who specialize this can be a sadness that haunts us as so many who are new to the scene forget where our scene came from in the first place, leaving many to question and wonder without grasping a thing before being devoured in the clique's, drama and overall circus that this world entails.

​For me often times its those who have devoted their life and even lively hood to perfecting an artform that is nearly extinct, to the rigid and structured Old Guard roots that were bestowed upon me lovingly with diligence, pleasure and pain over years to help me grow, transform and ascend to the role of the red queen that I have ascended to this very day. Without those brutal years on my knees and with my head in many books that were instructed for reading by my former Mistress I'd never have an ounce of substance or decadent tradition to add to this world, I'd just be like many others are now without terminology, expression just a sense of experimenting and also traumatizing one's self because those who ache for protocol and precedence rarely take the time to make themselves known anymore.

Anne O Nomis does a brilliant job at finding those rare and beautiful creatures of the night who thrive on passing on this rich history and tradition through the most refined in formal training, it is these women that carry the torch, wax candles and whip for our very future in Domination. 

Chapter IV: The Contemporary Occupation and
Arts of The Dominatrix 

Picture
Picture
Picture
For many who are in touch and contact with a Contemporary Dominatrix in an Occupational Setting, most are in the position of submissive or slave, leaving those bewildered by making a consultation appointment, booking one and ensuring the new client brings a gift for tribute that they never really take or value the time beyond the passion of their own whims to find out how one got into this branch of sexuality and the experiences in life that brought them thus far to a most profound adventure to indulge in. For many the most relatively normal walks of life provide the much needed calling to one's soul to find something more exciting in life to pursue, for others the path was a dark start that they've transcended and evolved into as a part of healing, self-empowerment and finding themselves. 

The very personal touches with private dungeons and boudoirs photographed with those wonderful interviews by very real and legitimate Mistresses some of which I've been in personal contact with for years as friends and sisters in dominance to depict a much more authentic view of our world from behind the curtain, where all the toys, evil plans and mind games unfold to create a sanctuary of escape for slave and Mistress alike. Anne O Nomis does a fantastic job of sewing these two parts of this elaborate tapestry of a book together leaving the reader intoxicated with the organization and effortless transition from one story to another and from one different perspective to one entirely refreshing. This exploration alone took years as somebody that's taken the time to network cordially with such busy creatures I can assure you they're not easy to get to open up, especially for a project as revealing as this. A wonderful real world look into the life and work of the modern dominatrix is found within the pages of this chapter with plenty of fleshed out details to go around. 

Chapter V: The Seven Realm Arts 

Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
So many wander into this world to find a skill they already have in their arsenal in the most basic of ways to be transformed into a beyond words experience for both slave and Mistress to enjoy. There are so few books that adequately depict the refined steps, and elegant time it takes to turn such basic mind games and functional rituals into a masterpiece of senses, a world of sensuality, angst, pleasure and pain and to utilize the process at the right time, with the right touch and proper amount of infliction to turn any shy individual into the most expressive vocalist, filling the room with sounds of pleasure, followed by pain, ending in surrender.

Anne O Nomis captures vividly how many mistresses have found the same classic arts to practice before opening their iron gates to wanting admirers, this isn't your typical "how-to" manual that so many of us have grown tired of reading over the years due to their monotonous tone that dribbles on like stereo instructions. Give us the rich tradition and powerful women that these games hearken back too and allow us current Goddesses to find the decadence between knowledge and history to placate it on the supple asses of those unruly beings that require additional whippings this session. A wonderfully romantic depiction that kept this mistresses heart swooning while reading seeing that somebody finally wrote the rhythmic cadence into words for the entire world to devour. 

Afterword: Ascent from The Underworld 

Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
After daydreaming for only two days and wandering into a world of history, art and secrets so many I already knew and kept privately hidden in  my very own archives to many new salacious ones that added such a rich ecstasy to an already ravishing read. By far one of the most well researched, lovingly adorned projects bathed in gold leaf, wonderous little nuances of kink hidden in images and between the thick pages of this detailed work, to leave me as a Mistress as satisfied reading this as I am after finishing a well planned session with an adoring client. Do yourself a naughty little favor this Valentine's Day and capture a copy of this beloved literary archive that Mistress Bella has fallen head over patent leather heels for. I assure you this will fast and rest assuredly become your new favorite in your carnal book collection. I've already found myself using it as a reference for specific insight when sharing with those curious about knowing what it feels like to wield the whip for pleasure and pain combined. 

Thank you to the wonderful author Anne O Nomis as this brilliant book wouldn't have come into existence without a lifetime of your hard work and dedication to an art and history that has needed to surface for far too many centuries. 

Eternally,
Mistress Bella BloodLust

Harry Potter Book Series Review

Welcome to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

Picture

Magick and Life Lessons abound in this Immortal Tale 

I recall the first time I even heard of this incredible series, it was 2001, I'd just entered high school and as a Freshman I was quite curious as to why so many young children were suddenly interested in Witches and Warlocks and wandering around the mountainside where I then lived, with fake scars on their foreheads and wands formed out of sticks found nearby. My mother came into my room and handed me the copy of the film "Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone" and asked me to watch it as she planned to give it to a friend's son as a birthday present later this week if I didn't find it to me too childish for this particular young boys age.  

After three and a half hours that felt as if they flew by in nearly half that time, I was floored, left jaw dropped with "wow's, oo's and ahh's" watching this magical world unfold from the mind and brilliant creator J.K. Rowling into the film franchise that little did I know then but had the most profound inkling would take over the world and transfigure it in ways I never could possibly have imagined. After giving the film back and telling her that it was by far one of the best gifts any child or adult could ever have, she then watched the film herself and found herself equally as in awe of this world that catered to imagination, realism and the very perilous lives that so many of us underdogs, weirdo's, freaks and outsiders have lived. 

Each year passed and a new film debuted after so many begged, pleaded and nearly forced me to read the series, before I was quite ready, informing them I'd rather wait until the entire series was written and debuted in film before indulging in such an adventure I was always left with rude scoffs, gaffaws and just confused looks not realizing that the reason why was more from an observing state as a psychic soul to watch the entire world awaken to a glimpse of what I experienced daily in my life as a psychic shaman and witch was far more wonderful than even wanting to read the books just yet.

"Blasphemy!" yes I can hear your repulsion by the very thought of watching the movie series numerous times before ever touching the incredible books, but it took a wonderful man and inspiring Twin Flame, to remind me that we're never too old to find magick again even in the most exhausting and hardest times as I still refuse to accept that I'm actually an adult. So after months of exhaustion accumulated from collegiate studies, and as the colder months crept in last November to debut the films once again for one and all to enjoy for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, I found his Harry Potter Series sitting quaintly on the shelf, worn in several times from his personal use of each adventure into J.K. Rowling's profound world, to realize that this was just the escape from Muggle Burn Out that this Witch desperately needed. 

So now let us venture into the magical world of Harry Potter, I assure you Old or Young, Skeptical or Pure Believer, this Series is essential to the very core and foundation of humanity at its best that any of us has ever been privileged enough to see in this day and age. Just think even two centuries ago women and men were being burned alive, hanged and tortured for even thinking of such a world, but now it exists in the forms of books, film, plays and future stories and a very exciting new amusement park that arrives for Muggle's and Witches Worldwide to take the much needed journey to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This is a glorious time to be alive to say the least.

Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone 
Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone 

Picture
What I found most remarkable was how immersed I instantly was when reading this book in the Harry Potter Series. There's a profound devotion from film makers to transform word for word, character, magical transformations in the form of clothing, walls and even characters themselves to be so incredible. Often times it's difficult to separate in one's mind the variations that were missed or overlooked in a film versus the expansive and endless world that books often provide that leave many movie-goers feeling upset as to how much of their favorite book was left out on the silver screen, for those who are fans of the films, let me inform you that the books are quite spot on for every detail, and special adventure enjoyed in this book as the boy under the stairs learns who he is and just how important his place in this newly discovered world of witches and wizards truly is. From a lifetime of dreadful mistreatment and abuse by the Dursley's to being an instant star and wonder of curiosity as he enters Diagon Alley for the first time, you truly can't put this book down, I found myself devouring it along side the feast of Thanksgiving finding the stress of college life melting away into a menagerie of sights, sounds, feelings and adventure that came with this very strong start to the remarkable series. By the time the marathon was over I'd already finished this book and was on to the next one, it was far too good to pass up when I had even five minutes to spare between classes or while running errands or waiting around to do so with those I love. I was already more than familiar with Harry, Ron, Hermione and The Weasley's and this book just made one feel even more like family by pages end. 
Picture

Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets 

Picture
As I found myself preparing for Finals, listing what to make for Christmas Dinner, and trying to find time to both sleep, eat and enjoy a good book, The Chamber of Secrets much like the first book was very true to each and every detail as vividly as it was in the films. For me it was another exciting read, to learn more about my already beloved favorite characters and to also read between the lines and pages as to what foreshadowing and foreboding new twists and turns in this plot filled series would be taking place. From subtle nuance to profound and vivid details into each chapter and story that fleshed out just where Harry Potter came from, who his parents really were and why was this new ominous feeling about what would happen as more and more students went missing in previous years along with the conspiracy against those who aren't considered "Pure Bloods" to be by far a captivating and adventurous read. As the New Year rang true and the first of many more danger to come was discovered and yet to be revealed in full grasp of the overall story arch of this phenomenal book, I was on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next even though I already knew. The bonds of friendship and reliance on those that earned trust was more than an invaluable lesson that any child or adult can benefit from, the best part was seeing in full entirety what hatred and elitism, the very core of ethnocentrism does to an entire world much less a society or small group of people. I have to admit not seeing Nearly Headless Nick's Deathday Party celebrated with Ron, Hermione and of course Harry Potter, was by far the only thing truly lacking from the films phenomenal retelling of this book. 

Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban 

Picture
I was most intrigued by the variations found in this book versus the previous two in regards to the movie, this book did a much better job at conveying to the reader in sequential order the build up of the adventure of knowing who Sirius Black really is, along with so many nuances and changes from scenes to chapters that the films themselves sort of dropped the ball on and left even the most skilled fans chiming in with "Well that's entirely out of order, how is anybody who doesn't read the books going to get that?" I do admit so many filters, changes with characters who were supposedly small in the film had much more importance and prominence in the narrative of the book itself, I found myself more than excited to discover the endless open paths that The Weasley Twins divulged to Harry Potter himself in the form of the Marauder's Map. The adventure through time travel, space and the concepts that most find way to daunting to explain to children were not lost at all in book or film, if anything it was inspiring to see an entire new generation give credit to the youth audience instead of demeaning them and preventing them from actually figuring out such complicated issues found in quantum physics, that most adults even find challenging to grasp; yet in this book were precisely explained with such effortlessness that even the most green of magic related fiction readers felt like an absolute expert by the end of the book in all things magical and time travel related. From learning the profound secrets as to who "Mooney, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs" true identities were along with discovering a very profound message in saving those worth saving regardless of having to break a few rules was by far one of the most charming and soul quenching messages this generation or any could ever truly grasp from the Harry Potter Series. To save Buckbeak and to give as much importance to plants, animals and to people truly shows a bigger and brighter future for us all on this planet if we'd just take a page out of J.K. Rowling's series and apply it to our lives and to the lives to those we touch, affect and participate in throughout the years in life. As Valentine's Day approached I found this stellar book coming to a close, and I have to admit I was quite stubborn to move on from here, I blame the fun found in the frolic of The Marauder's Map. 
Picture

Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire 

Picture
The remarkable book had quite the challenge of not being overdone by the intensely cinematic film debut of Goblet of Fire. For me it was always confusing and not explained in the films what a Veela was? It drove me nuts quite literally until this book answered this question and so much more in vast detail versus the film itself. From being ominously entered into the Triwizard Tournament, we find Harry Potter once more leaving us on the edge of our seat as previous books felt dangerous in moments however this one rally captivated me to keep me engrossed for weeks, wondering what would differentiate from the film and what would be so hard to read due to danger that it left me curled up in a petrified state forcing my sleep riddled eyes to read faster as the dragon continued to chase Harry Potter all over the skies over Hogwart's during the very first challenge. The adventure continued to build, as the challenges in the tournament grew fiercer and fiercer. From the underwater world of mermaids with strict rules of conduct, to the more than powerful ending in the third challenge a maze labyrinth that was much more impressive in the books as there wasn't a giant spider or maniacal Spinx on the loose to challenge participants as was missing from the film series.  I remember finishing this incredible book up around the end of April, wondering what further nuances of foreshadowing to the plaguing trials of Harry Potter that were yet to come. As Voldemort *Shhh* or he who must be unnamed returned to slaughter anyone that got in his way to Harry Potter's demise, in this case Cedric Diggery, the very adventurous and innocent rise to understanding for Harry Potter as to who he was and the origins of where he came from turned to a powerful and horrific direction as the last few pages revealed before then continuing on to the next book in this marvelous series. 

Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix 

Picture
Picture
The Darkness of Voldemort is felt ominously throughout this entire book, with the horrendously evil Professor Umbridge permeating her toxic presence and very severe sadism throughout the book made this a personal challenge to read, much less get through in any normal time frame. I was warned by many that this is usually the book most purchase an audio copy of, due to the graphic torture scenes involved with Mud-Blood hating Umbridge's wrath towards Harry Potter for doing what's right in a world where only those who are Pure Blood have a right, takes this previously exciting journey into the bouts of hell itself, for everyone reading to sit by, feeling the weight of the world on their chest wondering what freedom and enjoyment will next be stripped from our favorite characters and those who are in attendance at Hogwart's this year. As Death Eaters and The Ministry of Magic starts to show even more prevalence that those who are light are slowly being hunted down and snuffed out one by one, you feel the claustrophobic feeling of what anyone who's ever gone through persecution has endured, and for those who've experienced the worst sides of it, actual genocide and extermination. We lose an invaluable member of our beloved crew in this book, in the form of Sirius Black, just adding to the depressing tone that this book leaves one with, that took me all the way until July to finish even though it was my constant and daily focus. Like all darkness and evil in the world its nearly too much to digest but crucial for each and every human being to understand regardless of the discomfort and shame it brings to any humanists soul. 

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince 

Picture
Picture
As with most of the books from Azkaban and beyond, we find the sequence completely out of order in the film, confusing those who haven't read the series and frustrating ones that have with the unexplained reasons why you'd want to confuse both fanatics and newly discovering fans with this retelling of an already classic book. For endless pages and months the word has yet to be uttered, but after plenty of pensive work with Dumbledore and unions with Wizards who innocently shared knowledge in the past with Tom Riddle, never knowing it would be the end to most of the wizarding worlds peace and safety, leaves the reader feeling the magnitude of sharing information with those innocently to see later that unless that person was strong and true in character the severe consequences endured by not one but all is truly a profound life lesson for adults to remember and for children to see for the very first time. Wisdom shared with those who will not seek to do it justice can turn into the more heinous resources for those to implement in the most horrific ways. As we find that a Horcrux is splitting a human soul into several pieces at Voldemort's desires, we start to grasp fully just how dark the shadows and the shadow keepers are in this world, as the tearful pages end with the death of our beloved headmaster, I found myself in mourning having to wait a few weeks in September to recompose before pressing on to the series grand finale. 

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows 

Picture
This incredible end to the phenomenal series came with plenty of blows to the heartstrings of one's soul, leaving so many treasured characters gone, after getting to know them in vast detail in ways and with people whom we're truly not introduced too beyond names in the films thus far. So many complained that this book was turned into a two part film finale, I have to admit it does itch the mind, as this book flowed as one piece, and it would've been great to see it unfold on screen in the same magnificent way. The arduous feeling of being alone, isolated, without hope, resources or a compass to navigate one's way is felt in every page and chapter of this book, as well as the heavy burden of mourning the loss of Dumbledore himself as his presence is still desperately missed for most of this book. As Hogwart's is overrun with death eaters and staff that are hellbent on torturing Mud Bloods and Killing Muggles, we find ourselves outside of the beloved school entirely wondering, waiting and moving location to location, until each and every horcrux is brutally discovered, tormentingly fought and ultimately destroyed maker the strong and nearly immortal Voldemort weaker and weaker and more volatile and dangerous as the end of each chapter comes to a close. As Halloween fast approached so did the profoundly spiritual message of the meaning of those who've always been there for us in life in entirety really hit home, I find myself much like Harry Potter himself, a victim of circumstance to which he had no control, abused and neglected by those family members that were supposed to adore and love him like their own, to growing up quite awkwardly and stupendously in circumstances that most in this world can never grasp much less survive. As Halloween approached and this final book came to a close a profound sense of peace, self-love and a courageous pat on one's own back was in store, as Harry Potter the boy who lived truly found a way to live life to the fullest, in spite of the scars, heart break and pain that life introduced him too to make him the voice for a generation, to inspire even the most frightened to fight back for the cause not just their own safety. To sacrifice comfort to ensure that we all can hopefully be comfortable. Made me want to personally find platform 9 3/4 myself to find those who helped me now realize that where we've come from truly is just a stepping stone in life to where we're going.

In Conclusion...

Picture
Picture
If you haven't already watched this series and devoured in by book form, I sincerely insist that you and your family snag a copy of the entire series as quickly as possible. Not only is there so much more rich tradition, history, spiritual and life lessons to be enjoyed but the very profoundly soul healing journey that awaits one and all in life is captured in this very series. From learning what death is and what immortality truly is, to acceptance, compassion, unity and trust, support, love and to never put one's self about another human being or animal or mysterious plant by far catapults not only every reader into a golden tomorrow, but the entire future of humanity continues to grow kinder, softer, and more understanding and if one book series and set of films can do that for this world, why not embrace the beauty and wisdom it can bring to your world and your life? It's truly worth more than it's weight in gold. As J.K. Rowling has given us more than a few nods as to where we'll find Harry Potter next, keep your eyes peeled on Harry Potter and The Cursed Child Parts I & II, for now they're arriving to the stage for those who want to see the future of this grand world, and rumor has it, it might end up being book 8 along with book 9 being her Steampunk Themed Adventure in the World of Harry Potter, as we all know this journey isn't over yet, it's just now begun!

L'arrivée de scintillement de cristal Royaumes de l'hiver
The Arrival of Winter's Twinkling Crystal Kingdoms

Allusion l'arrivée glorieuse de l'Année de The Scarlet Reine
​Alludes the Glorious Arrival of The Year of The Scarlet Queen 

What an incredible year 2015 has been, from so many personal goals, pursuits and dreams coming true right in front of my very eyes, to the chilled and welcomed embrace of Winter's Arrival that beckons one and all to find the strength to turn inwards and to permanently release the multitude of enduring bad habits that have limited us to pursue our dreams and goals with ultimate passion and fervor. 

I  must confess as a sign that is ardently the core of Fire, it was one of the most emotionally challenging years for me to have my vitality submerged in the endless Ocean of Poseidon's embrace. Lord Poseidon has always been such a dear friend and guide to me for most of my lifetime, however this year I felt as if he had given me over to the ocean itself to be cleansed, purged, detoxed and eradicated from all former relationships previously romantic and even those who are blood kin, to not only allowing me to see the very haunting view into my own abyss and the very darkest and most tortured parts of my soul, but to see that challenge erupt forth from the volcanic presence of my own Twin Flame by the end of the year was almost more than I could viscerally take.

​Strength and Courage was the focus of 2015 to finalize all separations, and to prove to us with more than enough evidence as to whom was truly there for us just as we are, and who was lurking in the shadows to cause chaos and corruption as they say on the tides of the sea themselves "Loose Lips, Sink Ships." It was a permanent reminder of just how much I need to treasure my self worth, to not test those who I know already failed the trials of proving their worth in honesty, nobility and confidence to know once and for all that I will be earned, in ever conceivable form or not indulged in at all by those people, experiences, events and relationships that formerly held me in bondage, in unwanted or unwarranted shackles from those with serpent spirits that truly are only here for themselves. To feel this profoundly powerful and visceral feeling of Scorpio, Saturn and Venus in Retrograde for most of the year was quite daunting, leaving this Aries spent in all meanings of the word to leave me wondering just who I really am and what my path and purpose in life truly was. 

In those moments as the Ball Dropped and my incredible Twin Flame surprised me walking in the door moments before to ensure that I never spend a New Year alone without a passionate kiss, revealed to me just how much love conquers all. We find time to be apart, we find time to be engulfed in our own darkness, but in the end as the sun sets on life and all of space and time, I am His and He is mine and W/we find ourselves eternally at Home in each other's embrace. 

For those that chose evolution they felt themselves erupt and burn into cinders and ash, to fly reborn as the New Year rang in true for those aching for solid ground and a sense of land legs, we found ourselves firmly planted to our goals, dreams and recommitting to whats truly important in anyone's life, to find happiness, gratitude, and acceptance of life's unfolding process just as it is. This is the year that the Golden Age of Humanity has finally arrived, for those who've chosen to die we'll continue to see them mysteriously vanish, in favor of their own self-destruction and demise. Do Not seek them out, allow them to find themselves in the rock and hard place we've all been given since 2012. They were given the same opportunities and instead refused to sew seeds in their spiritual garden, now they will find themselves spiritually malnourished, while the rest of those who have focused on health, love, truth and purity radiate what we've wanted to become for eons now in every nuance and grand performance moment of our conceivable lives. 

From Artists, Painters, Musicians, Dancers, Sirens, Performers, Writer, those Nomadic Gypsy Souls who Wanderlust until their Heart and Soul is Content. To those innovating the New World while paying Tribute to the Old World, will be the glorious Renaissance of Humanity that this World has Ever Seen! 

Take your place, stand true in your vessel in full presence of the Godhead that you are a grand spark of, radiate your light, share your love with those who have earned it by paying tribute to the authenticity of your soul and find yourself surrounded by the family you've always hoped for. In this glorious year of Earth, it's time to get our hands dirty to dig deep, bury seeds and flowers and watch in awe as the gardens of our souls grow endlessly in divinity.

The Reign of The Scarlet Queen
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!

Winter Hours at Shadows Into Light Spiritual Services Temple & Archive
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 June of 2016. As I'll be on campus Monday & Tuesday Evenings, 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.

Old World Transportation & Rare Nightlife Adventures
As many of you realize I've been without reliable transportation since February of 2013, as much as bicycling and walking are guaranteed forms of travel, unfortunately in our rather large but not quite Metropolis city, the bus itself is quite atrocious, from hours just to reach the other side of Fresno, to the probably swifter comparison of an Amish with Horse and Wagon it's truly not a convenient form of transportation, that usually leaves one late, super early or profoundly confused as to why no bus has arrived at all. Another common mid-city factor is due to the middle-ground our current city population is in, they don't offer bus transportation once all the parties are ready to commence! In larger cities like LA or San Francisco the buses run 24 hours a day, very convenient for those that work evenings and night owls that enjoy a bit of fun in the night after a long hard day. 

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. 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

​Lets start with Goals & Dreams, Since 2008, I've been known as Psychic Bella, founding Shadows into Light Spiritual Services has truly been the real life experience needed to continue honing my psychic abilities, helping those in the valley and all over the world seek a higher quality of living and truly transforming from the inside out has given me a taste of my future. Since Spring of 2013, I've been pursuing my AS in Anthropology a field I've been very much immersed in in this role in the universe, however being able to observe from an outside perspective has also given me a profound sense of balance, wisdom and insight, and is allowing me to pursue my BS in Criminology & Forensics, which hopefully will ensure that I'm able to transfer my Psychic Abilities into a Psychic Detective work for those who are trying to start over after finding themselves clear across the world after escaping the world of sex trafficking and forced prostitution. 

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

​Businesses
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. 

Ringing in the Golden New Year and Age...

Picture

with The Sun King and His Bella Luna 

All this time I was fixated on my visionary experience of Twin Flame Love, but as the New Year rang in true promising as Lord Saturn confessed that all of one's inner darkness and sadness would be revealed unlike never before; on 29th I saw and heard sides of  my love that I never knew were on his Atlas like shoulders ever before. But perhaps that was due to me not truly listening. In retrospect I read this story in his cards before, I felt moments of that inside of him, plaguing his conscience, heart, soul and own self-worth, something I never knew he'd been struggling to process through until now. Realizing that joy, love, beauty and excitement are painful for those who are barely able to find fleeting moments of this authentically in their spirit can be sheer and utter torture, for as I am the light in His darkness, He is the darkness within my light. After heated and tearful words were shed, exchanged and spewed forth to provide a cloud of sadness, anger, and confusion as to what pain was erupting forth from the suppressed spirit for eons allowed me to truly see how muck alike we are in so many un-detailed ways, for now. 

That day we decided to take time apart, to let a break take place to ensure that both of us felt and identified what we truly wanted, needed and were lacking together and apart to reveal to me how much this deity in flesh form truly cares for me, loves me unconditionally and just like me the fear of uniting with somebody so much like myself, is by far the most rampant run inducing feeling one can ever be overwhelmed with. You see being Twin Flames, isn't easy, by any accord, you'll feel your heart, mind, soul and very essence of spirit break, shatter, burn, return to ash and be reborn more times each moment you're together than you ever will in a lifetimes of death's and rebirth's in a collective consciousness grasp of reality and the supernatural. To wonder if it was He this time that was still growing, unable to provide what He truly wanted to generously give, made me realize that if anything I took so much longer, and tried to rebel against true love more He ever conceivably had in our entire relationship, the one now shared for the previous three years, and the ones we shared eons and centuries ago. To see that at the time my much larger heart could consume this darkness, accept Him just as He is, and to just Love and Be Loved in return, promised His soul that as much as this hurts presently to love so deeply, to hate somebody so vividly in some ways because of how good they are for you on ever conceivable and mysterious reason that plucks one's soul like the strings of a haunting violin. 

After saying "See you later" instead of "Goodbye" as I knew in my heart and soul this wasn't the end, just an end in our bad habits, our desire to be alone because others told us for so long that being alone is all we ever truly deserved. We decided a week apart would be plenty of time to see what we wanted, how we wanted to live, whether it be together, apart or somewhere in between as we have been now for the past 3 years. After a mere 12 hours apart I realized he left his much needed tech gear at my place, so I found time to take it over to him, to then have him take me home hours later ensuring I was safe, loved and protected. After wishing Him a Happy New Year unsure of just how we'd spend it together or apart this year, I was overwhelmed watching the New Year's Eve parties wondering just what our actual story would tell if there was a tale to tell sometime soon at all. A half hour before the clock struck Midnight, the door opened and my composure of hope and love knowing somehow this wasn't the end of our tale, turned to tears of gratitude and love and an eternal embrace whispered with "I could never let you ring in the New Year alone." We laughed, I cried, we enjoyed the festivities and our lips met passionately after the ball dropped. Sure nothing is perfect, as Twin Flame love isn't about perfection, its about loving an imperfect person perfectly and finding yourself in them all over again with each moment shared in honesty even in anger and tears, not at one another but aloud at ourselves when we find that the world, our past and old skins have tried to come back all at once. Apologies for hurt hearts were given generously, knowing that one bad moment in three years is never the reason why to say Goodbye is a constant reassurance and realizing that no matter what W/we will always be Home in one another's loving embrace, makes this cold season and at times cold world, all the more inviting. 

For those who've been through the mires of hell and purgatory that was 2015, you have proven to yourself and the cosmos that you exhibit the strength of the Gods and Goddesses, and for those who still believe you deserve a love affair that will last centuries, eons and even lifetimes, keep dreaming, your Twin Flame is coming, be ready, be prepared because this connection I confess is beyond words, but your soul will instantaneously know when you've been able to effortlessly overcome every difficulty in your life and within yourself effortlessly in the loving arms of your Divine Twin Flame. 

​Until We Meet Again...

From transforming journals and sketch pads into the foundations of my novel, while editing and constructing another that's soon to be released for erotic horror readers to enjoy, to finishing the final touches on BellaBloodLust HQ to ensuring a place to work, create, brainstorm and vision board can take place to turn dreams into legacy and living breathing reality. 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.

What are Totem Animals & Animal Guides?
There are hidden qualities and forces of nature that we can access if we are attuned to the natural forces around us, we can learn some of the natural language the animal kingdom is telling us.

The animals express the spirit nature of that species and exemplify qualities we can learn from. They are psychological and spiritual symbols that convey to us qualities we are needing or lacking in our daily lives. They are a mirror of us reflecting our own innate qualities to help ourselves better understand our connection to all things.

Personal power animals and the connection to animals and their wisdom are found throughout the world in many cultures. From cave paintings, ornate jewelry and carvings to countless stories and legends. Animal wisdom helps connect to our innate being. In the distant past there was no separation between man and animal. This view is reemerging as we awaken to the knowledge of the animals. We were and are inextricably linked as one. Animals, regardless of culture and location, teach us by example.

The timeless widespread view of power animals can be related to Carl Jung's concepts. He termed "archetypes" as primordial symbols of the "collective unconscious". Animal totems are simply archetypes that work with the subconscious mind, tapping into the energy that is present in all things. They are part of the collective mind as a constant truth found throughout the world.

Totem animals can be seen as channels or frequencies on a radio with many levels of understanding. Animal teachers will become noticeable when it is time. There is much to be learned if one is observant and aware of the natural surroundings. Animals speak to us in many ways; by their numbers, how they act along with the natural actions and reactions to their surroundings. The keys to understanding this language is learning about the animal and discovering those qualities you need to pay attention to. One needs to be perceptive and aware when you see animals that catch your attention and stand out above the perceived norm.

Animal Totem awareness is by no means a worship of the animals but rather using the animal totems as spiritual tools, or rather a spiritual symbiosis, along our personal path of awareness. There is honor and respect for all of nature. Man is not above nature, man is one with nature. Totems and all of nature, demonstrate a spiritual connectedness that helps guide us into self discovery.

  • Have you always had a certain affinity or preference for a specific animal(s) and are curious to know the spiritual message this animal represents for you?

  • Have you been having dreams lately a midst life changes about a certain type of animal(s)? 

  • Has a new member of the animal kingdom found themselves in your home as your new familiar? 

Every animal has a message for you, nature speaks to us through messages and symbols if we only take the time to pay attention, allow Psychic Bella to interpret what the animal kingdom is trying to tell you with messages for your spiritual progression. Looking forward to helping you along your path. 

What should I expect?
Depending on if you would like me to find your animal guides for you in the astral realms or if you would like to participate in finding them yourself it depends, each ritual is different, though for those looking to have a highly spiritual experience to connect with their spirit animals I highly recommend the vision quest ritual this is typically done outside in nature, with chanting drumming, smudging and other elements to induce trance state meditation to find the answers that you are looking for with your own personal psychic guide right by your side. 

For those looking for insight but are unable to engage in a vision quest at the present time I suggest a report, I can psychically find your guides and give you great detail that will help you out in your present life circumstance, depending on what type of totem you have you may have a report that is somewhat permanent and others depending on how their life changes are often met with new guides and totems throughout life, so it's always nice to receive a reading if you've never had one or are experiencing odd situations with animals in this world or the dreamworld.

Book a Totem Animal Report &/or Totem Animal Vision Quest with Psychic Bella

I'm the proud fourth generation Native American Shaman in my family, this gift of elemental connection magick comes from my profoundly gifted great-grandmother. She was a well known apothecary, herbologist, and profoundly gifted psychic healer. From giving people life saving natural medicine, to communicating with their guardian angels and spirit guides, to having people from the reservation as well as families who didn't even believe in these cultural beliefs in spiritualism lined up at her back door every morning for a profoundly insightful tea leaf reading. This amazing woman, my ancestral lineage was more elated than words can express when she realized that I too was like her.

So many in my family even with the gift or hints of it, have shut it off in fear, but like her my spirit roams free and I must be the navigator of my own spiritual path, for this reason and emotion of openness I've not only managed to keep this spiritual door open but also managed to develop it further than she was able too and am profoundly grateful every day I can help somebodies spirit calm with the profound clarification of letting them find touch with their primal, animal side. The first Totem Animal experience I had before going into a deep vision quest with a trusted friend was of running in the forest and jungles on all fours, with black fur, and a penchant for hunting and even after awaking from dreams leaving me with insatiable cravings for steak tar tar. I noticed my aura and features of my face were more feline, and I didn't share this information with anybody but so many friends started to notice 
there's something quite different about you, you look like the Cheshire cat, and so on.

I discussed this with my friend who claimed she'd had a vision quest to see what was going on as she too had the same dreams and experiences, along with teeth and fingernails taking on a talon like disposition, I was curious to know more. Through an ancient ritual of drumming, chanting around bonfire and going into a deep trance, I was guided into the astral plane forest and found my panther, my totem animal. I realized that it was me in animal form, this type is known as the shapeshifter aspect of totem animals. When fear or unsafe locations are not good I feel myself going into "Panther" mode, and even find my totem animal in my dreams the night before dangerous or near-death experiences arrive.

​The last time I had this type of dream was the day before my near-death car accident in 2009, but every time the moon is full and my moon cycle arrives the panther in me is prominent, and for that sacred connection I'm most thankful to have as it connects me with the natural world that was untouched by the presence of man, allows me to attune to higher realms and to visit my dear great-grandmother as she still stays around to help me guide the old world to the new light. I graciously invite you to experience this profoundly changing experience in your spiritual path, and if you aren't able to afford the vision quest experience, then Psychic Bella can offer a profound Totem Animal Report, that will suffice until we meet in person for a much deeper and meaningful connection to the animal world. I sincerely look forward to helping you attune to your primal side, without understanding that is exists and warns us and guides us, we're unable to be in balance and control when that darker side takes over. 


Welcome the spirits of the animals for they guide you to the truest direction of your heart's path.
Namaste,
Love & Light,
Psychic Bella
