What is a Priestess you ask?  Well this is what it means to me.
Webster's definition is: 1. A priestess is a woman who officiates in sacred rites. 2. a woman regarded as a leader ( as of a movement)  
This is true and she is so much MORE.  She is able to position herself between the visible and invisible worlds between the two dimensions.  She works with subtle energies and is an emissary of the Divine Feminine represented here on earth.

She serves the spiritual needs of her community and in these times is very needed. A priestess is a woman who helps others connect to the divine so that  they can heal and actualize their soul's unique path. 
The priestess is a collective archetype that is in the collective consciousness as a constellation of characteristics of the divine feminine expression through us.  We must learn to walk as her.  We must train ourselves to embody her and the sisterhood.
She is just a girl with a big dream who is living in purpose, is a leader with class and recognizes she has a Goddess deep within her.
The history of the priestess is one of great trauma.  In fact, I have learned that a lot of us are having to heal our witch wounds.  The witch wound is the deep seated fear of being terrorized, betrayed and forced to be subservient.  I learned that last month from Desiree Dunbar.  She is a Modern day priestess as well. You may want to ask which of these witch wounds play out in your life.  Is it terror?  betrayal? or subservience?  I had to work through all of them by healing it the feminine way so that I could feel safe in my body, feel free, powerful, successful and happy.

In 2016, I took two courses with Velva Dawn Silver.  She is the head of the Goddess Healing Matrix System- Higher Priestess Practitioner Course- trademarked.  I have level 2 designation.  What that course did for me is that it opened the door to the Goddess world.  Prior to that I had learned to heal my mother martyr archetype and become a more empowered woman.  I now walk in way more woman energy and I am healing my inner little girl.

My spiritual journey began after the stage three cancer diagnosis in 2011.  I was deeply wounded, sick and in need of deep transformation.  I had heard the whispers of migraines and diabetes and ignored them.  I guess you could say I had so much deep work to do that God sent cancer to awaken me!  Through the darkness of such a serious illness, I discovered my light.  God brought me to my knees and while I was down there I prayed for help.  The help came in various teachers and through them I discovered my magic!  He has helped me through the feminine part of Him.  The Divine Feminine has helped me RISE and HEAL.  
Through the Goddess work, I tapped into Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene and a host of other amazing Goddesses.  The healing that is occurring is nothing short of a miracle.
I have learned how gratitude for my life shifts everything! And I fell in love with my SELF. It is the catalyst for change.  Love is the greatest healing energy and with God and the Goddess I am healing and I am allowing the Divine feminine to evolve through me.
I remember one day when someone asked me if I was a witch... haha... that had bothered me.  I really had had no idea what it meant.  Now I do. Old programming made me feel like I was doing something wrong, bad, evil, dirty, ugly and wrong.  I am so grateful I discovered the truth.
​
Long ago, the priestess of the past observed the patterns of nature. They honoured Mother Earth with seasonal rituals.  Women were seen as the embodiment of the Great mother and were honoured and celebrated as she was able to grow life in her.  Later in History, Roman, Greek and Egyptian priestesses lived in holy temples. They were held in high esteem.  And then men began to fear them and persecuted and put them to death.  Those managing to get away, fled their temples and went into hiding.

Today in the midst of the old falling patriarchy, a modern day priestess is emerging.  She brings wisdom, and integrates spiritual teachings with her own flavour and spins on on it.    This is why I feel strongly guided to pursue this part of me. I believe I was Her in many lifetimes.  I resonate deeply with Atlantis, Egypt, Biblical times, Roman times, Gypsy and witches.  I believe this lifetime is to help me empower myself.  

The three pillars of  femininity spirituality are healer, priestess and goddess.  The three stages of the goddess are maiden, mother, and crone. 

I learned with Desiree Dunbar, the nine stages of sovereignty are:

1. pain
2. support
3. inner compass
4. transition
5. authenticity
6. passion
7. bold action
8. service 
9. joy

I feel very secure in all areas.  I am healing my old pain, shame and guilt.  I feel that I have the love and support of my family.  I am in tune with my inner compass and intuition.  I am in transition from who I was to who I AM. I live authentically without masks.  I have deep passion for my life, my love and what I create and the energy I bring to the world.  I take bold action in all I have overcome to write in 21 books and create numerous courses. I am of service to the world and I live in joy each day.
I learned the five things I needed to harness to be the sovereign Goddess I am are:

1. Sacred Site power
2. Goddess power
3. Sisterhood power
4. body temple power
5. psychic power

I am sovereign.  My family and my husband know that I am my own person.  I don't belong to them. 
They recognize that through my healing, I am answering a Divine calling.  It is a deep calling of purpose and  I have a big job left to do. I listened to the call of the Divine Mother.  That is why I had a deep mothering energy my whole life.  I just didn't know how to direct it in an empowering way.  Instead I smothered.  Now I know better.  Now I am doing better.
This also meant that I had to let go of people, places and things that didn't have this vision as me.  I needed to pray for gentle and kind friends and teachers.  Now I feel that I must share the path of the priestess. It is a path of deep integrity and takes tremendous dedication.  I have it.  All those years of Health Information Management and integrity has served me well.  I am integral.  Anyone who knows me, knows that I am faithful, integral and dedicated to my healing through passing through deep reflection of my life, prayer, meditation, and speak my truth with love.  Hard work brings with it many rewards. I recognize my divinity.  I recognize my worthiness and mostly I recognize the amazing feminine soul I AM.
I am holy.  I am healthy.  I am happy.  With that energy I am better able to serve the beauty of life with so much love in my heart and with my whole body, mind and spirit.  I am no longer playing small.  I no longer subscribe to drama or people who choose to live out of alignment with lies and deception.  I choose to help raise the vibration of Mother Earth. I choose to see the sacred .
The way I see it now, I had to grow through what I went through in order to become a Priestess.  A woman who is standing in

• HER POWER.  
• connected deeply to SOURCE
• has created and maintained her BOUNDARIES
• loves HER SELF
• demands MORE of her life
• takes RESPONSIBILITY for her own life
• embodies the Divine FEMININE
• is STRONG
• SOVEREIGN
• HEALING and helping others heal, one card reading or live video at a time
• who is deeply SPIRITUAL and in control of her intuitive gifts
• feels worthy, loved and doesn't care who judges her as she knows the TRUTH.  HER TRUTH is good enough for her.
• is BECOMING a better stronger HUMAN who counts her BLESSINGS and is living an AUTHENTIC life
• has self-esteem
• has confidence
• is a leader
• is compassionate and kind
• is able to ENERGETICALLY protect herself

An affirmation of a High Priestess is this:
I honour the light within the darkness, I am light and my heart is open. I have infinite abilities and I accept who I am and who I am not.  I change what I can.  I am love and lovable.  I am here present in the NOW.  I look forward to the future with LOVE and POWER.

Over the past year or so, I have felt strongly guided to share my love of God, Jesus, Mother Mary and my Catholic roots.  This past Christmas, God put it on my heart to read the bible and so I purchased a 365 days of the Bible course and I am doing it each day.  Some parts are an easier read and some I am finding harder.  I discussed this with my mom and she said "before you read it, ask God to show you the meaning.  Then read it in silence for a few minutes.  If God wants to relay anything then a thought will come to you otherwise if not then that is ok too. Don't put pressure on yourself."  I loved that advice!  Thank you dear mom.  (Mary Giuliano)

Then last week my church shared a post to enthrone the bible in my home.  In the Catholic tradition, the book of sacred Scripture has been honoured as a symbol of God's living word present among us. I placed it on an altar in my office to remind me that I work for God.  That His word is the word that guides my life.  It is a reminder to seek and live God's word each day.  It sits behind me as God has my back.  I believe with every fibre of my being that HE is guiding my life.  I am living proof that you can love God and love angels.  You can love God and love Goddesses.  You can love God and love crystal. You can love God and love yoga!!! You can love Jesus with all your heart and be a spiritual teacher. I am here being of service to GOD.  He created everything.  I am here to shine my light and continue to allow others to see God through me.  Isn't life wonderful?  God gave us breath and free will to live a life that is pleasing to HIM AND to our own heart too.  In fact our heart is connected to HIS heart.

I am living full out. For a time, I didn't know where I fit.  I was told I was not a GOOD Christian.  In the spiritual community I was asked to tone down my God energy.  One time when I wanted to do speech and thank God, I was asked not to.  NO MORE!!!
So let me reintroduce myself.  Hi everyone.  I am Giuliana Giuliana Melo.  I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, auntie, friend, colleague, student and teacher.  I love God and He loves me.
This is not a this OR that world.  This is a this AND that world.  I am grateful to my teacher SDJ for teaching me that.  I believe that I need to trust God guides my journey. I believe that prayers are holy language and that we must talk to God through prayer.  I believe that meditation allows me to hear His voice.  I believe that I must give Him all the praise for my gifts when I am with you- my friend, client, student or with my family.  I believe that we must be safe and not entertain all energies for there are negative energies and entities that do not have our highest and greatest good at heart and so I will not entertain the dark.  I believe in the power of kindness and in LOVE being the greatest healing quality there is.  So if I resonate with you at all and if I can be of service then I am here.  I will never judge you.  I will never pretend to have all the answers and I promise I will always teach from my experiences and with the best of my ability.  My CEO is GOD.  Thank you God for my life.  Thank you friend for reading.  I would love to hear from you.  You can leave me a comment below. 
God bless you. 

Hello my friend,
I wanted to take a few moments to share some love as we get ready to usher in the new year!!  2020 has been a year of great focus on disease and un-wellness.  You have the power to focus on health.  I hope that you will join me in this intention.  I promise to show up each day and keep us focussed on all things positive. I hope that when you look back on 2020 you can find something to be grateful for, something that you learned and I hope that you can think of something to be excited about in 2021.  
I want to close the energy of 2020 with a prayer from my heart to all of you.

2020 Closing Prayer
Dear God, Universe, Source, Creator,
Grandmother's and Grandfather's, angels, 
guides and ancestors,
I thank you for all the great experiences I had in spite of Covid-19.
I thank you for all my success, joy, vitality, growth, and all my lessons learned.
Thank you for never leaving my side as I released old memories, pain, hurt and disappointments.
Thank you for helping me forgive myself and others.  I ask to be cleared from all trauma in order to set my soul and my spirit free.  Please God help me release negative karma.  I want to fully connect to the NOW.
At this moment, I prepare myself to welcome an even better 2021.  I am ready to level up. BECOME and receive.
Thank you for everything.  Amen and so it is.

I am sending you all wishes of love, light, health, joy and abundance.
Love 
Giuliana

Happy Monday Everyone.
I wanted to connect today to share some information that I just learned.
Did you know that the chopping down of a tree represents the death of Jesus and putting it back up represents the resurrection of Christ?  
Did you know that the wreaths we hang are never ending circles that represent eternity and the symbol of life?  
Did you now that candy canes were made to look like shepherd hooks and the colours red, Jesus blood, and the white is a symbol of purity?  
The gifts are a representation of the three gifts the wise men brought for Jesus, gold, frankincense and myrrh.  
So when you are running around wanting to get the perfect gift for someone, stop and take a deep breath.  Remember that you have been given the greatest gift ever.  Jesus was given to us to remove all our sins... Merry Christmas.

Christmas is NOT CANCELLED.
No gatherings in Alberta means just that.  Christmas is not cancelled!  Christmas is acknowledging the light in your life.  How you choose to do that is up to YOU!.  Christmas will come and will be whatever you choose to make of it.  Cherish those you live with and build new traditions together.  Reach out to friends and family via zoom and video.  Call a friend.  Gatherings are cancelled.  Not Christmas.  Make this one the most magical one yet.  I believe in magic.  Do you?
Make your favourite food.  Turn on all your lights.  Watch mass online.  Call your family and friends.  Prepare a beautiful table.  Drink your fave drink.  Watch a funny Christmas movie.  The spirit is in YOU my friends.
Christmas isn't where you are at.  It is who you are with.  Whether that is in person or not.
I wish you an amazing Christmas.

​Hello Everyone.  Today celebrates the belief in the Immaculate conception of the Virgin Mary.  December 8, 2020. It is one of the most important feasts that we Catholics and Protestants celebrate worldwide. WE honour the Blessed Virgin Mary .  The feast reads
 “O God, mercifully hear the supplication of thy servants who are assembled together on the Conception of the Virgin Mother of God, may at her intercession be delivered by Thee from dangers which beset us.”
Mother Mary is one of the most beloved Saints.  She is the Mother of Jesus, Queen of Heaven, Queen of the Angels and Supreme Goddess.  I love her with my whole heart.  
Today she offers up some guidance.
It is:
To remember that you are a blessing to the world.
She says that she is with you day and night. She sends you great waves of love. She sees you as the Divine light that you are.  You have many gifts to offer the world and she wants you to share them.  She says to fill up your own heart and then give without obligation.  Everyone benefits from your presence on this planet.  You are love and you radiate love.  You are a true blessing to this world and your existence at this time is very much appreciated.
