“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human experience.” - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.

Janus Blumë, Transformational Coach

As an author, student of spiritual well-being, and advocate for positive social change, I’ve spent my entire life as a spiritual seeker. The saying is true—“Seek and ye shall find.”

 My journey has led through many areas of inquiry including the human potential movement and mythological studies. New Horizons, a nonprofit school for homeless children in Santa Cruz County, caught my attention at the end of 1994. I worked there for six years, and learned to treat those in need with the respect they deserve. In 2015, I retired from Cabrillo College after serving as the Division Assistant in Counseling for fifteen years.

Since retirement, I’ve been writing and researching, looking for my ‘next thing.’ In May of 2023 I was trained in the practice of coaching by an NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming) instructor who studied with some well-known developers credited with sparking the popularity of the personal coaching movement. 

My childhood had its challenges. They helped me find compassion and non-judgment.

Now I live an inspired life and stand for the possibility of a world guided by compassion as well as logic.

I have overcome abandonment issues, childhood poverty, neurodivergence, chronic depression, and domestic violence. Calmness and tranquility are now my home state, and all is forgiven.

I envision a global culture built on crazy, stone-blind love at the root, with national and international policies reached through compassion and reason. We can create a peaceful and sustainable world with adequate nutrition, health care, and housing for virtually everyone.

If you know me in the wild, you might also recognize me as a spiritual diva, syncretic mystic Witch, and devotee of sacred plant medicine. 🌱💚🌿🌞🌛🌕🌜🌟⭐️

Will you join me on my quest?

In Love Supreme,

Janus Laughingbear

The word “Witch” can be defined many different ways. I’ve been one since 1996. 

My first teacher was Shekinah Mountainwater, one of the founding mothers of the modern Goddess movement. She taught me the definition of ‘Witch’ that I use today, “Someone who has dedicated themselves in service to the Great Goddess.” Our Holy Mother, she from whom all things proceed and unto whom all things return. 

The roots of the word “witch” are uncertain. The first three letters, ‘wit,’ seem related to the words wit, wise, and wisdom. In pre-Christian Europe, the wise ones were the village healers who used herbalism and spell-singing to ease suffering and make life more joyful.

Nature met everyone’s needs—food, medicine, and materials for clothing and shelter. The wise ones were partners with Mother Earth. They delivered babies, healed when they could, and eased the crossing when they couldn’t. They lived in harmony with the rhythms of the planet; night and day, summer and winter. 

NeoPagan Witchcraft recognizes the spiritual sovereignty of the individual. My journey of transformation has had many twists and turns. Every step brings a new lesson. Like the labyrinth at the Chalice Well Tor, my ascension has been a path winding ever upward. When our hearts are true, we will be tested. When we withstand the tests, we find the love and joy we seek. I follow my path, guided by a doctrine of love, supported by faith, and free of dogma.

I move like a sunflower, always turning to the light, inspired by this grand story called ‘Human Life on Planet Earth.’ A current of love binds me  to my fellow players on this stage. We can do a better job of being of being good famiily, and I’m committed to living that possibility. What mother doesn’t want her children to be kind to each other? My calling, mission, and message arise from my dedication to Her.

I’m Janus Blumë, Transformational Life Coach and Spiritual Diva. I seek to reduce conflict in the world one family at a time.

Imagine

Dr. Shefalii Tsabary, became the author of three New York Times best sellers about conscious parenting after realizing that every single client who came to her for psychotherapy ended up sorting out the traumas of their childhood! She has said,

“Because we weren’t taught by either our parents or society to access our inner stillness and find the roots of our pain and pleasure within ourselves, we are reactive to external circumstances. Since we didn’t learn to simply observe our emotions, honor them, sit with them, and grow from them, our response to external stimuli became increasingly emotionally toxic, which is the root of our cyclones of drama.”

She makes it sound simple and solvable. What if it is? What if the world is one generation away from nonviolent conflict resolution? 

WE CAN: 

• Learn to show our love so that the people in our lives really get the message.
• Embody active listening,
• Express truth with loving kindness.
• Live in Love Supreme

I’m not a mental health professional, but I have been able to make these changes in my life. I’d like to work with you through the process of uncovering the steps to your own goals.

Let’s work together to create a template for joyful living. Happiness flits in and out like a ‘our butterfly, but joy lives quietly beneath “cyclones of drama.” It waits to be found through mindfulness.

I learned decades ago that global transformation requires skillful means. I commit myself to this quest, but I can’t do it alone. 

Let’s be part of a new social conversation so effective that it shatters the old paradigm of ‘power-over’ and domination.
