WRITER • MENTOR • STORYTELLER
MEET JENNIFER
I left home in the United States at age 18 in 1986, with $400 and a one-way ticket to Paris. I stayed for nine months, and have been making my way through life by trial and error ever since. I am a skilled and intuitive writer, guide, and storyteller whose wide ranging experiences enable me to connect with audiences from diverse backgrounds. My life has been dedicated to inner exploration and creative expression no matter where I’ve found myself. I am devoted to healing the world one imagination at a time through poetry, myth, and folk tales, and to assisting others to find the inner safety and courage they need to make their unique contributions to the human experience.
Mythic Rites of Passage
Are you looking to navigate life's passages with grace and awareness? As a master of flow and symbols, I offer unique, individually curated rites of passage rituals grounded in folk tales and myth, Earth’s primal language.
If you feel called to work with me, I’m launching a new round of The Coracle, an online rites of passage portal ground in the spiritual technology of myth, folktales, and ancient alchemical magic.
Are you ready to live a life of purpose and flow? To make practical contributions while being in service to the sacred in all you do?
The Coracle is a vessel for modern humans to receive ancient instructions preserved in myths and folk tales on how to fulfill humanity’s purpose and destiny as a grounded, conscious participant in contemporary life.
A summoning of mythic forces to assist you in discovering the unique qualities of your embodied soul, The Coracle will guide you toward self-revelation, while connecting you with orbits wider than the human realm.
Despite all the damage we’ve caused, we humans are a valuable contribution to Earth. Our flowering matters. Our fruit is love. The choices we make as individuals will decide if that love is seeded for future generations.
We could keep repeating the hell of war, but it’s not inevitable.
We always have choices.
In this time of uncertainty, ground yourself in the old stories gifted to us by the wind and fire, the water and earth. Become your own oracle.
Take your place in the hoop of life as a holistic force to serve your community and the world.
A MYTHIC RITES OF PASSAGE MENTORSHIP
I receive rain from the moon. I am the oracle of silence. Mysteries pass through my skin to be revealed as waves on the unimagined shore. I am the safe passage over the dark ocean. I will carry you where you need to go.
THE PRAYER OF THE CORACLE
Journey With Me
THE MODERN
MYSTIC
The modern mystic is effective in this world.
My life has been a continual ceremony of trial and error that has led me into physical situations and dimensions of consciousness I never could have predicted coming of age in 1980s America. Life itself presented me with the situations I needed to transform and evolve. Going in blind, I eventually learned to navigate the journeys inward and down, how to recognize the liminal, and how to come back up to offer my gifts as a contribution to others.
We need more soulful, embodied citizens in the world. Modern mystics, grounded in daily life, are the practical leaders we need now as our planetary systems disintegrate to evolve.

The Corpus Callosum Chronicles
Bridging the gap between imagination and logic through poetry, memoir, and myth.
“Wthout human mirrors, animals offered to show me who I was, and who I could become. Deer and dog, turtle and snake, honeybee and dragonfly, hawk and owl, seal and songbird. Eventually, my world expanded to another ocean where the mirrors were less opaque, more aquamarine than labradorite, and the reflections I saw looking back at me more unfamiliar: dolphin and whale, octopus and eel. Shark. After years of low light, often gray, I started to see in technicolor."
DEBUT MEMOIR
Piko: A Return to the Dreaming
Piko: A Return To The Dreaming is an account of a 21-day ceremony enacted by a modern woman in search of mythic ground in an ancient Place of Refuge on Moku O Keawe, Hawai'i Island. Weaving together memoir, fairy tales and myths, Hawaiian history and culture, and reflections gleaned on the state of humanity's relationship to nature, the book itself is a ceremony and a guideline for finding refuge within one's self in a time of planetary chaos.
