Susanna
Each week I feature one of the women disciples with a short extract from of the text from my book.
“Are there lost parts of yourself that you would like to recover?
“O Isis , the Great, God's mother, Lady of Philae,
God’s wife, God's Adorer, and God's Hand,
God'smother and Great Royal Spouse,
Adornment and Lady of the Ornaments of the Palace.
Lady and desire of the Green Fields,
Nursling who fills the palace with her beauty,
Fragrance of the palace, mistress of joy,
Who completes her course in the Divine Place.
Rain-cloud that makes green the fields when it descends,
Maiden,sweet of love, Lady of Upper and Lower Egypt,
Who issues orders among the divine Ennead,
According to whose command one rules.
Princess,great of praise, lady of charm,
Whose face enjoys the trickling of fresh myrrh.”
-Egyptian hymn to Isis
Susanna is mentioned quite early in the Gospel of Luke and nowhere else.
This painting is purely intuitive. She appeared to me as a priestess of the temple of Isis,standing under a full moon, holding a moon stone. The worship of the great mother goddess Isis was popular all around the Roman Mediterranean. Though originally an Egyptian religious movement it had her husband and brother Osiris was renamed Serapis. There were priests and priestesses in her temples. Though many of the rituals and practices were done in private we do know that some of their ideas and beliefs were held in common with the teachings of Jesus ;including the power of love, forgiveness and the resurrection of the dead.

Fay Barratt
Art has always been my first love, though many other things have filled my life. I am a painter, author, spiritual teacher, an Interfaith Minister and the founder and visionary for the Mary Magdalene School of Wisdom. With 50 years experience of running workshops and groups the last 25 have focused on spiritual teaching and the Divine Feminine.
Over recent years I have realised that my experience of being in the artistic flow or being spiritually inspired and guided come from the same inner source. This is the source of universal creativity, of love, peace, and joy. It is our birthright as children of the Cosmos. No matter what our spiritual path or outlook there lies within us a force beyond our comprehension, it can only be known through direct experience. I hope that we can access that creative force together. I am really excited to see how your individual creative journey emerges. There is no right way, only what is true for you.

My art is an act of love. May the wind of Grace blow through me, sweeping away all hubris, leaving only hand, eye, heart, soul, light. May the infinite radiance of creation open my inner and outer eyes. I am grateful, humble and forever in service of love. My art is an act of gratitude.
