Flexibility

Grandmother's Embrace : Facebook Group

This Facebook group is for both men and women who feel the sacred fire of the Grandmother’s Embrace. Sacred fire is fueled by Divine Love. It cleanses and clears out old paradigms to bring light to darkness and make way for the new. As people of wisdom we’ve come to this place of Christ embodiment through many mystical paths. All are welcome here to share and join in the Oneness of our Divinity in human form. As above so below, as within so without.
