Earth Day 2020
This morning, a wave of sadness came over me, tender grief for all the endangered, fragile creatures of the Earth, we humans among them; for all our loss and fear, sorrow and suffering, shock and anger from this world-wide pandemic.
The terrible COVID-19 crisis is wreaking havoc on so many lives and families, and imposing a Great Pause on our way of living and doing business. It has turned our lives upside down, and caused great suffering,... Read More
An Imaginary Dialog with Hawk Spirit
Rahima: Dear Hawk Spirit, twenty years ago, you told me that the consequences of our human choices (industrialization, war, greed, extraction from Mother Earth instead of caring for Her) were coming and many would suffer. Now I see these consequences happening, and much suffering everywhere from drought, firestorms, huge floods, terrible storms. Will you talk with me again?
Hawk:
Times are fearsome but no need to fear.
This evolution must happen. Humanity must grow... Read More
Pelé Rising by Rahima Warren
When I paint, I never know who is going to show up. This time it was Pelé, the Hawaiian Volcano Goddess. To find out why She did, I wrote a dialog with Her, using creative imagination. She brings us all a powerful message for this time, when we are facing eco-collapse and the rise of fascism and terrorism.
Dialog with Pelé
Rahima: Pelé, Black Goddess of Volcano and Ocean, creating New Land from the Fires... Read More
Art and Emotions Torn from My Soul – by Rahima Warren

Heaviness in my soul. Dread. Apocalypse looming.
Scorching the Earth (c) Rahima Warren
What are we doing to our Mother Earth, our only Home, to our brothers and sisters? Destroying so many beautiful and important birds, plants, animals, insects, sea creatures? Filling our precious, rare-in-the-universe Oceans with plastic junk? Tearing gaping holes in... Read More
My Heart’s Prayer for Our World and All of Us

Dear World, Dear People,
I love you. I send you blessings for healing, love, awakening, and gentleness with yourself, others, and... Read More

On the day of a very rare Super Blue Moon Eclipse, I launched Perilous Bliss, the final book of my trilogy, The Star Seer’s Prophecy. When I picked that date, January 31st, 2018, for the publication of my third book, I had no idea what a remarkable moment it would be for the completion of the trilogy—my 18-year labor of love. My “baby” was graduating and leaving home to go out into the wide world on a most auspicious day.... Read More

Once upon a time, I was a psychotherapist in private practice seeing my clients and minding my own business. Then one day in December 1999, I wrote a little story in my journal. The idea was to write down this inner character’s story so he’d stop pestering me. Ha!
That little story opened the floodgates. Eighteen years later, I’ve retired from my practice, and, much to my surprise, have written The Star Seer’s Prophecy, a fantasy trilogy of sacrifice and... Read More
