Let's gather to celebrate a local poet and her extraordinary journey of authoring her newly released book, The Prophetess, The Return of The Prophet from The Voice of The Divine Feminine. This book is framed as a contemporary continuation of The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. It addresses the human condition and human potential. Chelan will talk about her life changing journey of how this book came to be, will share some passages from the book and there will be time for book signing and Q and A. This will be a warm, inspiring gathering.
Chelan Harkin’s poetry journey began at age 21 on the heels of a traumatic event, a mystical event and an unparalleled creative opening where inspired verse started to pour through her with very little need for editing. Her experience with channeling the muse was profound and intimate but also quite private. It took Chelan 12 years to find the courage to share her poetry with the world through her first self-published book, Susceptible to Light.
This publishing journey that began at the end of 2020 has been something of a magic carpet ride characterized by prayer experiments gone right and has included some of the most awe-inspiring events that have completely shifted Chelan’s way of relating to herself and the world.
Her current published books include Susceptible to Light, Let Us Dance, The Stumble and Whirl with The Beloved, Wild Grace and The Prophetess, The Return of The Prophet from The Voice of The Divine Feminine.
She lives in the Columbia Gorge with her seven and four year old kids, Amari and Nahanni. Since this publishing journey began, Chelan has travelled the country as an inspirational speaker, talking about mysticism as the path of opening the heart to embrace our wholeness.
