Last night I heard about the passing of our beloved Raelyn Gallina. Raelyn’s influence on me is so huge it’s hard to encapsulate in one post. Raelyn was (amount other things) a jeweler, a piercer, a body modification artist of the hight order, a powerful priestess and a plant magician. She pierced me many times. Each was a ritual of life-altering proportions. She drove the Catholic Church out of my body once and for all. She gifted me with the most powerful protection spells I have ever used. She was my single greatest inspiration for my realization that Tantra and BDSM could be the same sacred art. Last night, as Kate and I were mourning Raelyn, Kate said, “At least we know she is okay. No one could navigate the nether world more elegantly than Raelyn.” Here is a blog post which includes an excerpt from my book, Urban Tantra. It tells the story of the day Raelyn taught me one of the greatest lessons of my life: barbaracarrellas/2014/09/08/in-memory-of-raelyn-gallina/ Blessings and huge heart hugs to Babs Lornie and thanks to Catherine Opie for this stunning portrait of Raelyn Gallina.
