Jennifer Masters

I help people find their spiritual path. Moving beyond traditional religion there are a wealth of ways to connect with your authentic self or divine source. In addition to Shamanic spiritual practices and energy healing, I specialize in sacred dance and priestess arts (working with Goddess and feminine energy, in balance with masculine energy).

These practices have done so much for me in my personal growth, have improved my sense of self and help me come out of my shell, I am honored to pass them on… and so it’s my passion to help you be “grounded” in your body, love your body, live in the moment, and enjoy the pleasures of this Earth-walk!

I was raised Christian, and when I could no longer ignore the fact that it didn’t fit, I went exploring and fell into Witchcraft. It was like coming home to a place I’d never been. Then explored Wicca, and now I consider myself somewhere between Paganism and Shamanism. The more I explore, the more I see it’s all the same, at the heart. But these particular paths speak to me on a level I can’t really explain.

As a Shamanic Priestess I facilitate events and ceremony in the San Diego area. I get an enormous kick out of facilitating ritual and ceremony because it’s a place where I feel I’m truly living in the moment, and feel more connected to All That Is. I do it not only for myself, but for others, individuals and groups, big and small, simple and complex, planned and spontaneous.

I love belly dance because it speaks to the divine feminine in me and in all of us. I have a passion for movement arts, sacred dance, moving energy with my body, experiencing connection and healing through dance and movement. I love facilitating Shamanic Trance Dance and performing with my dance troupe Saraswati Modern Tribal … we’re all about sisterhood and the love of the dance.

Sometimes when people ask me what I do, I tell them I’m a Renaissance Woman … in addition to my spiritual and dance practices I’m an artist, and I love all things artsy … including crafting, painting, drawing, sewing, costuming, mehndi, pottery, fiber arts, graphic design, book design, music, drumming, performing arts…

I live in San Diego with my husband Brian. Our dog Charlie is a Lab/Spaniel mix, he’s a total sweetheart once you get past the barking.
