We are Astaran and Ayana, birth names Marco & Leonie. We met each other in 2016 but immediately knew we have always known each other. In the years we have been together we have lived a lifetime of ‘life’. We were both interested in spirituality, self-development and transformational work, but that was just the start of the magical journey which we are now on.
Who is Astaran?
Astaran (or Marco) is an artist, designer, coach, father and energetic healer. He was always the weirdo doing his own thing, always drawing on everything. He went to different kind of art schools but although these choices have been very important in the totality of his process up to this point, it has always felt like putting on more constraints because of all the ‘rules’ about what true art is, so he’s let it all go for a while to do something else. After working in the IT business for 15 years, a burnout kickstarted his awakening process which made him follow his calling: assisting others to free themselves. Looking back from this point in time it is so clear that he has always been guided to be activated to see the geometry and to be able to translate it into visual imagery for others. The Sacred Signs that Astaran creates can be seen as positive, activating images that he brought here as part of his personal instructions for this time, in order to support humanity in this process of awakening, shedding all that is not us and embodying our full potential.
Astaran has always felt a responsibility to the women of this planet, to being a space holder and supporter and to not be part of the toxic masculine. He has focused on balancing his masculine and feminine energies and can easily access both in order to provide what is needed in a specific situation, in balance with other beings around him. This brings stability to his designs as well.
He lives for making his children burst with laughter, because he is so deeply connected with the spark that is his inner child. This spark is what has truly supported and guided him all through his life and he is adamant to inspire everyone willing to be inspired with his joy, his unique expression of the pure love that he embodies.
Who is Ayana?
Ayana (or Leonie) is a writer, artist, inspirator, mother, trained psychologist and creator of all things beautiful. From a young age she ‘knew’ she was going to experience something extraordinary on this planet and that it would be incredibly challenging, but so deeply rewarding as well. She has always been aware that the way humanity lives up until now is not even close to the potential we all hold. She has a deep love and compassion for all living beings, being so aware of all the suffering humanity has been and still is being put through. She’s always been a supporter of all living beings, the go to person for those around her that were struggling and through her own journey of being in the trenches of this life herself, has positively influenced the well being of those able and willing to truly connect with her on a heart to heart level. Her ability to ruthlessly see through all the bullshit we tell ourselves has also been deeply triggering for many. 😀 She’s not afraid to go deep, to dive up the treasure hidden away behind all shallow nonsense. She’s a being of pure love, as we all are, who walks her talk, finds joy in sharing, spontaneity and being on this journey with so many others. Her passion is supporting and witnessing people letting go of their constraints, shedding all the nonsense and truly embracing the beauty that they hold, embodying the pure love that they are more and more. She loves connection through expression and seeing the beauty in everything and everyone she meets. She is happiest when she’s able to create, be it through writing, painting, drawing, sculpting with clay or singing and playing the piano. Her children are her inspiration and greatest example of the embodiment of pure love.
How do you work?
We both solely work with our own multidimensionality and our connection to the source of our own being. We do not channel anything but our own selves and we create from our hearts. We prioritise our embodiment process and the purification of all of the patterns, programming and all (imagined) limitations. We are as straight with ourselves and one another as we would want everyone on this planet to be, as raw and unfiltered, honest and pure as possible. This is a process for us, as it is for all of humanity, we are still shedding the layers of distortion that have been put onto us, all identities we have taken on during our lifetime and that have played out through us. We are not perfect, we do not hold the key to your personal process (only you do!). We are all responsible for our own selves, and we take this responsibility very seriously (while laughing at it, at the same time! :D). All of this means we are shifting and changing constantly and, for example, that our work two years ago had much more distortions than it has now, and looking back in another two years, we might see completely different things than we see now. This is the flow of nature, constantly improving and letting go of what does not work. We can only promise you that we are doing the very best we can, every single day, both in our lives and in the support we offer you through our work. At any given moment in time, we give you the best we have to offer as pioneers in this new world. The new world that is already here, waiting for all of us to live it. We’re inviting you to join us!
