The Angel’s Earring: Healing Through Dreams and Creativity

Shame and introversion kept me silent most of my life, without stories. Yet off in a dark, lonely place at the top of the world, she saved me. … She told me to paint as just a voice in a dream.
Through years of self-hatred, Vicki Lynn Milnark kept receiving signals, images in her dreams that she explored through her artwork. Slowly, but surely, it profoundly altered her self-awareness, allowing her mind to become healthy and well. An inspirational work, Vicki describes the profound insights she received and shares the drawings and paintings that let her discover personal joy and her true potential. Her path wound through Christianity, Gnosticism, Judaism, Neopaganism, Alchemy, Buddhism, shamanism, mask and myth, and along the way she loosened the constrictions binding her and came to understand how to obtain freedom and comfort. Join Vicki as she recounts her travels - and begin an enlightening journey of your own! VICKI LYNN MILNARK has eighteen years’ experience as a counselor and art therapist in a variety of settings with children and adults.
