"When the Red Thread first touched my wrist, I was like, “What is THIS?!?” Stardust Unicorn, Ashley Merritt, smiled widely recalling her first encounter with a Red Thread Circle in 2019 at a workshop lead by “Color of Woman” certified Intentional Creativity® Teacher, Jane Sanguinetti, who studied at the MUSEA Center for Intentional Creativity® & Consciousness.
"What is Quantum Creativity, anyway?" mused Cassandra Lee when a serendipitous encounter with a captivating social media advertisement merging art and science introduced her to the intriguing concept of 'Quantum Creativity.'
This moment ignited Cassandra’s journey into uncharted territories, leading her to transcend burnout, culminating in her embarking on her MUSEA 2023 “Color of Woman” Intentional Creativity® Teacher certification, and the fortunate meeting of her kindred spirit and Soul SiSTAR, Ashley Stardust Unicorn! Little did they know, the Red Thread had woven their destinies together in a cosmic dance of connection.
The Four Legends of the Red Thread serve as fundamental teachings at MUSEA and tell of a crimson thread linking kindred spirits from birth, drawing them closer until their threads of fate intertwine. Perhaps it is your destiny to find yourself here, drawn to the Red Thread for the first time, already connected in unseen ways as you heed the call to explore this offering. Ashley’s initiation into the sacred practice of medicine painting sparked a passion within her to learn everything she could about it. Enrolled at the MUSEA Center for Creativity & Consciousness University in ‘22 pursuing her Degree of Intentional Creativity® Curate and in June will begin Shiloh Sophia’s MUSEA “Animystica” Cura certification. Meeting and studying with Shiloh has been a Red Thread weaving of cosmic proportions!
What exactly is Intentional Creativity®?
Essentially, it is the art of creating with intention, as our ancestors have done since time immemorial. Going deeper, it reveals itself as an energetic transformative style of art that serves as a potent antidote to life’s challenges. It goes beyond aesthetics, delving into energy transmutation, offering seekers a path to self-realization, healing, and alignment. It is not about how the painting looks; it is about how it feels to move trapped energy from field into form, infusing energy into matter, transforming, and healing the inner landscape. This science-driven art form focuses on using intention to break unwanted cycles, bringing you closer to your True Self and to living more authentically with each experience.
Though the concept of crafting with intent traces back to ancient times, for modern souls like us, it heralds a new era of possibilities. Intentional Creativity® Founders, Shiloh Sophia McCloud and Jonathan McCloud, advocate for this art form as a liberator of creative expression, as it is accessible to all, regardless of artistic skill or familiarity with art supplies. Jonathan stresses that “…in Intentional Creativity®, we are saving art from the tyranny of the talented,” meaning this healing art form is intended for everyone to experience and enjoy as there is no experience necessary!
Within the Quantum Commons of MUSEA University, these teachings have sparked profound changes in the lives of these two women. Ashley discovered her true calling, merging her lifetime of love, experience, and professional training in the theater arts with her passion for Intentional Creativity®. This natural fusion paved the way for the creation of the Stardust Unicorn Sanctuary, which serves as a workshop space for Ashley’s online workshops and collaborations with Cassandra Lee and as the location for her online web series for children ages 6-9, currently in pre-production and directed by Anasuya Isaacs.
As Cassandra navigated the realms of the Color of Woman training, she embarked on a soulful journey that birthed her soul work, Cassandra Lee Artistry. Fueled by a love for painting and the transformative power of Intentional Creativity®, Cassandra's mission aligns with guiding others back to their authentic selves, free from societal expectations. Through this alchemical process, she believes she can lead others to their true essence. She also co-owns a photography apparel brand, Mountain Fresh Trades, intended to connect us to the other than human world.
“I love to paint, but even more, I love experiencing and teaching Intentional Creativity®. The deepest reason I desire to work with you in Intentional Creativity® is because I want to help you remember who you were before the world got its hands on you. That is what this process has helped me with. Even though you may not realize it, we all experience fragmentations as we go through life. We all have moments and/or other people in our story that shaped our path, that threw us off our trajectory, sometimes even without noticing, got us further away from who we really want to be. My path to Intentional Creativity® has led me to you, and I truly believe that is why you are here.”
During her “Color of Woman” Teacher certification, Cassandra was encouraged to find a kindred spirit among her classmates for mutual support. Drawn to Ashley's vibrant hair, artistic creations, stories of the Burning Man, and candidness about living with ADHD, Cassandra discovered a soul sister in Stardust Unicorn.
From their initial Zoom to their collaborative efforts in manifesting their soul's visions, together they have nurtured a friendship embodying an Artistry of Sisterhood where their Self expression intersects, and they dream and plan for the future offerings of the Stardust Unicorn Sanctuary. “My motto is ‘Be Your Unique You!’ And, do that with as much MUCH as you possibly can!” Stardust Unicorn continued, “As a Guardian of Unicorns & Wild Things, my mission is to ignite self-empowerment in you, unveiling your brilliance and capacity for healing and renewal. Through Intentional Creativity®, we unlock endless possibilities, spreading magic and alchemy worldwide.”
With MUSEA University Intentional Creativity® Teacher, Guardian, and Red Thread Guide Certifications under her belt, Ashley is here to serve your creative, spiritual, and purpose-driven dreams.
Through the gateway of MUSEA membership and training, Cassandra and Ashley discovered a path that resonated with their souls, and now, as torchbearers of Intentional Creativity®, they unite to guide you on a journey of self-discovery and healing. You are invited to enter into the Artistry of Sisterhood with them!
Embark on a quest with Stardust Unicorn and Cassandra Lee to paint your unstoppable “Visionary” Archetype, your key to unlocking your true purpose.
