"Strangers are friends you haven't met yet." - William Yeats

Ciao Bella!

I believe in serendipity, so if you've found your way to my site, it's no coincidence. I look forward to connecting with you and can't wait to learn from you as well. I'm always up for a creative collaborations. Learn more about my wild and wonderful journey here.


Wisdom Weaver & Ceremonial Artist,

Shannon Nicole

Let's connect

Sacred Art & Ceremony

Humans need ritual & ceremony to create meaning

The world is rapidly changing, and many people, including myself, have left organized religion and are reconnecting to the Earth-based practices of our ancestors. 


Change can be incredibly liberating and profoundly unsettling.


I believe that when we outgrow the old structures that provided containers for us to celebrate birth, death, and all the pain and pleasure in between, we have to create new rituals that meet the moment.


Humans need ritual and ceremony to create meaning and to remember what is truly important to us. One of the oldest archeological findings was a flower ceremony for a burial. 


I am not a birth doula or a death doula. 

I am a Wonder Doula helping you to reconnect to your soul and to the Earth, the great Mother of us all. 


From my own journey out of the church, out of ministry, out of patriarchal and colonial religious structures, I have woven a tapestry of nature-centered, ancient wisdom traditions to meet modern times into my work of creating ceremony for life's important threshold moments.


For all the PLEASURABLE moments that need celebrating, like birthdays, baby showers, bridal showers, first menses, weddings, anniversaries, pilgrimages, promotions and the like.


And for all the PAINFUL moments that need honoring like divorce, empty-nest, menopause, chronic or terminal illness, living funerals, and death.


I am your Ceremonial Artist and Wisdom Weaver, here to mark your threshold moment with the beauty it deserves.


Contact me to discuss how we can create a meaningful experience for your special moment.

    Shannon also comes from the word seanchaidh, which means “skilled storyteller" who were carriers of the oral traditions of the Celts, who created, memorized, shared, passed on, and put into to song the legends of their ancestors.


    Over the last decade I have been reconnecting to my Celtic and Norse ancestral practices, creating a blend of ancient wisdom for the modern need for ceremony and ritual.


    My art is my song to the world and the way I pass on the wisdom of ancestors.

     I am a 1/3 Splenic Manifestor. I rely heavily on my intuition to guide me. I am a curious soul who loves to go down esoteric rabbit holes and learn thru life experiences.


    Manifestors are also said to sense astrological shifts before they occur. This has definitely been the case for me. One might say I was born to study magic, astrology and all things esoteric, since I was born on January 6th, Epiphany when it is said that "Wise Men" came following a star.  In pre-Christian traditions, it was called the Magic Night which celebrated the mystical power of women.


    In 2025, I started the Creative Coven. A group of women weaving wonder and wisdom in wild times.

    I find Vedic & Sidereal Astrology fascinating! I love the way the Eastern systems are based on the feminine, lunar understanding of the cosmos.


    In these systems, I am a

    Sagittarius Sun

    Libra Moon

    One day I will have the time to dive deep into studying Vedic astrology because I believe it is the most accurate and complex system of understanding our Universe.

    Chinese Astrology has been one of my favorite self-discovery tools for the last decade. I really love the way the animal archetypes of the Chinese Zodiac reveal aspects of self in a more objective manner. It also provides a fantastic framework for understanding the overlying energy of the year. I think of Western astrology like your lines in a movie and Chinese Astrology is like knowing the film you are in each year. The Chinese Elemental Wheel is such a powerful tool to understand the underlying Energy we are bringing to our environment.


    In Chinese Astrology, I am a Wood Tiger.

    Venus rules my chart as a Libra Rising and she is my Guiding Goddess.


    I am a Capricorn Sun but since I was born at midnight, the moon is my luminary.  I don't resonate with traditional modern views of the Capricorn energy.  In ancient astrology, Capricorn was seen as a Unicorn which is most fitting. I do relate with the Sea Goat's ability to scale the heights and then swim to the depths with it's mermaid tale. I most identify with my Scorpio Moon and Sagittarius North Node. I am also very interested in Fixed Stars and Ancient Astrology.

I began making life-size mandalas as part of Yoga Teacher trainings. In late 2019/early 2020 I embarked on a pilgrimage to Northern India to deepen my practice.


    I will begin my 300hr. Yoga Training in the Fall of 2026, diving deeper into Yin, Yoga Nidra and the esoteric roots of the practice.


    Energetic Enneagram

    Wanderlust & Photography

    Energetic Enneagram

    I teach the Energetic Enneagram that aligns with the chakras. It's a somatic way of using the system and is closer to the Eastern/Esoteric origins of the tool.


    In this system, I am

    Ego: #7 (throat chakra)

    Wing: #8 (third eye chakra)

    Essence: #5 (heart chakra)

    Growth: #1 (root chakra)

    Intuitive Collage

    Wanderlust & Photography

    Energetic Enneagram

    Creating collages is one of my spiritual practices. All the artwork on my site is from my journey of self-discovery. I often incorporate collage and oracle card making into my events as a way of working with one's inner landscape.

    I have traveled to 25+ countries across the globe, studied abroad in Europe, taught abroad in Asia.


    I enjoyed a camel caravan pilgrimage in India, 

    a the divine feminine walking pilgrimage in France, 

    and ancestral pilgrimages in Ireland, Iceland and England.


    I plan to finish walking the Camino de Santiago and would love to continue pilgrimage journey's across the globe.



    Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.
