Kuan Yin finally finished




I finished making Kuan Yin last night. I sewed in 8 bags of hair!!! She can now join her siblings, Jesus, Shiva, and the Jungle Beauty Goddesses. I still need to make clothes for her and Jesus, and mend a couple of the Jungle Beauty Goddesses, before I start making my YouTube movie.

I think I will clean up a little bit first and throw out some things before I start creating my movie sets around the house.

Sewing is a completely different energy than making videos. I look forward to the new creative
 energy.

I am in love

I am in love. No. I am so, so, so, in love.I just finished creating the Jungle Beauty Goddesses' 2 older brothers Jesus Christ and Lord Shiva. They are so beautiful that they give me goose bumps. They both stand over 6 ft. It  took 12 hours for me to weave in Jesus hair. I will make his gown later. I am going to make one more Goddess before I start shooting my YouTube series.

In my story all deity beings, gods, and goddesses are siblings who have been given different planets to nurture and develop life forms for. DeMatter and Nebula are their parents who are creators of the Universe. Nebula, their mother was pregnant with the Jungle Beauty Goddesses when Jesus was crucified by the beings on his planet. DeMatter and Nebula were so devastated that they decided not to have any more children.

The first few episodes focus on the Jungle Beauty Goddesses family foundation and their relationship with their older siblings.

My 2 favorite doll artists in the world are Marina Bychkova and Tanya Montegut. They are so different yet the same. I love them because their work is so rich and soulful. Doll pictures are inspirational fuel for the soul of fabric artists.

I will share some of the pictures of my journey of creating Jesus Christ and Lord Shiva who are brothers.

The Learning Curve


I don't want to forget how I started this. It is not something that I want to post to YouTube, but something that I love so much because with more practice things are uphill from here. Teaching yourself a new skill from scratch is a indescribable thrill.

Am I Procrastinating

Mada--Earth's first man.

Just messing around-trying to figure out how much I can animate and what I need to create from scratch.
I have 4 more characters to sew before I can start making my YouTube series. My daughter says that I am stalling and procrastinating. Maybe she is right.

How to Know what you were born to do

You know you were born to do something not by how easy it is to accomplish... but by how determined you are to over come obstacles to make your dreams come true. I woke up this morning at 6:30 AM and thought that I would be finished making DaMatter's robe by 12:30 PM.

After one temper tantrum, four broken needles, a melt down, a "I give up!
", blood from my finger and foot from lost needles--I finished at 12:30 AM. Exhausted.

It was a lot more difficult to make than I imagined. But it was worth, all of my frustration.


If you look closely you can see that he is breathing ;)

My souls expression of Joy

Today I watched Beyonce and Jay Z tour in Paris and cried tears of joys. I love to see people give their all and all to their soul's expression--rather it is making a cup cake, cleaning a toilet, or making a sand castle. The treasures of life are found in the desires of your heart. Use the gifts and talents that that were give to you unabashedly, without apology.

I love you Beyonce and Jay Z and I pray that your love, wealth, and happiness last forever. What most people don't understand is that you know that you are truly wealthy and rich when there is nothing else you would rather be doing with your time--whether you had a billion dollars or 59 cents to your name.

I have uploaded some pictures of my creative process of sewing --Nebula--mother of the Jungle Beauty Goddesses. I am so excited and exhausted--what a joyful elixir of life. 

I need to make Dematter's  and Mada's clothes before I can start preparing the storyboards for the Jungle Beauty Goddesses' Youtube series based on their book series.

Enjoy!







I love the simplicity of her face in this picture.

My favorite picture because it is oddly beautiful and other worldly.
Nebula is beautiful with her clothes on or off. I love her curves. She is 5'9 head to toe.

Love these purple polka dot lashes. Fun to play around with...just don't use the permanent glue.



This is the first time that I have ever designed a dressed and put some thought into it. I wanted Nebula to be sexy, yet conservative. I love these colors together. They are bold and proud.

The Jungle Beauty Goddesses' father, DeMatter creator of the Universe has just manifested. I wanted him to look like a combination of T.D. Jakes, Isaac Hayes, and Morgan Freeman. I wanted him to have kind, compassionate, non-judgmental eyes and look UN-apologetically African and Black.












I can't believe that he is here! I am going to now clean up the house, do my laundry, make my super healthy vegetable soup; find and begin my yoga video-- then make Nebula, the Jungle Beauty Goddesses mother.

After I make her, I will make the clothing for Dematter, Mada, and Nebula and then I will begin the weekly YouTube Series.

Super Excited!!!!

Best Sci Fi Fantasy Books Jungle Beauty Goddess's Pretty Blue Ball

Jungle Beauty Goddess’s
Pretty Blue Ball 
Book Excerpt


Join the Jungle Beauty Goddesses on an amazing journey as they develop planet Earth’s plants, creatures, and its beings. Ironically, they discover that their “perfect human being” is but a mere embodiment of their own flaws and imperfections of being free-willed goddesses. They question the boundaries of their divine powers as they ponder whether or not it is possible to mold a being to be superior to its creator. Earth is coming to an end! Whose fault is it--Humans or a negligent  creator who abandoned them?
By, Cassandra George Sturges

Nebula walked back to the palace’s ballroom to see if her husband Dematter was ready to begin the ceremony. When she arrived she was greeted by several of her children with kisses and hugs. The archway and path to the altar was lit by angels wearing flowing white gowns trimmed in gold, holding white candles. The room smelled like sandalwood, frankincense, and myrrh. The lavender diamond chandeliers with dangling pearls sparkled. The guests were softly humming Aum that caused the angel’s feathers to slightly sway to the rhythm of the humming sound.

 Nebula walked into a private room in the back of the ballroom where she found her husband looking sadder than she had ever seen him before. She cradled his head into the cleavage of her buxom breasts and kissed him on top of his black, glistening, bald head several times.

She felt his warm breath and soft beard against her aching heart as he sighed, “No more, Love of my Life.” She continued to softly kiss his head all the way down to his ear and then whispered “I know,” while hugging him, “As we agreed, this is the last time—no more children.”

He lifted his head from her cleavage, held her face in his mighty hands, and began to kiss her forehead, the lid of each eye, and then each cheek before passionately kissing her lips. He then used his tongue to tenderly sway her words of doubt into submission.  Dematter gazed deep into Nebula’s eyes and said, “It’s time.”


 “I’ll go get the girls,” she murmured before leaving the room as she ran her fingers through her hair, and straightened her dress in an effort to regain her poise from being enraptured into the throws of desire of her husband’s love.

When Nebula arrived back to the courtyard to escort her daughters back to the ballroom, each godette gracefully stood up one after the other, until all seven were standing.  They looked at their mother expectantly. Nebula slowly nodded her head, turned around and headed back to the Deity Ball with her seven daughters following behind her in their flowing royal blue ball gowns. They walked in silence.

Nebula and her daughters entered the ballroom and began walking down the center aisle as angels played their violins and harps and the honored guests in attendance hummed along in unison.  At the base of the altar, flanked by two archangels, stood their father, Dematter; and the long train of his black, shiny, robe draped upon the rose quartz floor.   

The seven sisters looked straight ahead as if they were hypnotized by the sight of their father holding both arms straight up with his fingers wide apart as his palms cradled the enormous, breathtakingly beautiful royal blue ball with white misty clouds of swirls, and patches of green with bronze and yellow trimmings.

The Pretty Blue Ball planet appeared to move in and out as if it were breathing, as Dematter held it over his head. The hauntingly beautiful royal blue glow from the planet became the only light that lit the entire room. As the music continued to play, Nebula walked up the aisle to stand next to her husband as the seven sisters waltzed to position themselves in a crescent shape around their parents standing at the altar.

Namib, Sahara, Qattara, Kalahari, Sinai, Chalbi, and Afar bowed down on both knees and stretched their arms out in front of them with the palms of their hands flat on the rose quartz floor. In sync, the seven sisters lowered their heads waiting to take their vows from their father.

Dematter said while holding the Earth over his head in a loud, voluminous, deep, tone; “Namib, Sahara, Kalahari, Qattara, Sinai, Chalbi, and Afar, do you promise to forsake all others and dedicate and commit your lives to developing, nurturing, and protecting the Pretty Blue Ball planet Earth and all of its being big and small until the death of its sun?”

All seven of the sisters said together, “Yes, father we will.”

Do you promise to love and cherish your beings and cultivate this planet Earth in a manner that will nourish their bodies, develop their minds, inspire their spirits, and evolve their souls for a life of eternal reincarnation with compassion, integrity and wisdom?

All seven of the sisters said together, “Yes, father we shall.”

Do you promise to never use your life –giving chi powers to harm, abuse, destroy or intercede in the affairs of your beings and the natural cause and effect laws that exist between them and their home-- planet Earth?

All seven of the sisters said together, “Yes, father we do.”

Do you promise to never, ever under any circumstances violate or exploit the spiritual, physical, and psychological growth of your beings by intermingling, socializing, or befriending them in a way that will prevent them from reaching their full potential in a manner that is self-selective, self-reflective and none-destructive?

All seven of the sisters said together, “Yes, father we do.”

The Sanskrit meaning of the word jungle means uncultivated land, but now you are the ordained cultivators of the Pretty Blue Ball planet Earth. Jungle is now the collective first name each of you will carry in matrimony to the Pretty Blue Ball planet Earth.

As creators it is your duty to entrench this planet and all of its beings with a soul-stirring, healing beauty that reflects the careful, meticulous, splendorous design of the universe from which you were born. May I have your word?

All seven of the sisters said together, “Yes, father we shall.”
From this moment forward, Beauty is now your collective second name to remind you that beauty is a detailed act of craftsmanship that reflects the soul of its creator.
 
One third of planet Earth is made up of deserts with extreme arid, cold, and hot conditions that resemble the intergalactic atmosphere of home. It was predestined that each one of you have been named after a desert as reminders to you of the all-encompassing love of your mother and I—each grain of sand is symbolic of how much we love and will miss each one of you-- and that you are never far away from home.

Dematter reaches forward with planet Earth in his hand, and the seven sisters stand up and collectively reach out to place both hands on the Pretty Blue Ball planet with their father to take their final vows.

As the creator of the universe and all that there is, all that there ever was, and all that there ever will be-- with the everlasting love and support of my wife Nebula, we now imbue you with creative powers to cultivate the Pretty Blue Ball planet Earth and all of its being until its sun releases its energy force back into the universe. Do you promise to serve this planet and all of its beings with kindness, honor, compassion, and integrity?

All seven of the sisters said together, “Yes, father we do.”

“By the power invested in me you are no longer godettes. You have taken your vows and you are now entrusted and are held accountable as creators and protectors of the Pretty Blue Ball planet Earth and all of its beings. From this moment forward you shall be called Jungle Beauty Goddesses rulers of the Pretty Blue Ball planet Earth.

Dematter let go of the Pretty Blue Ball planet and it was held up high by all seven of the Jungle Beauty Goddesses.  Everyone cheered. It was a blissful event…

The To Do List



On the to-do-list, do not ever write, “Write kindle book” as a task, it you should always break the task down to small tasks that can be accomplished in 3, 6, or 9, month’s goal or an annual goal. The human brain sees write a book and does not know where to begin, so it shuts down altogether. Here is a To do List Template for writing a book.

Jungle Beauty Goddess Sahara 
Ruler of the Mind, Knowledge, Rational Thinking, and Information

By Cassandra George Sturges


Dear Jungle Beauty Goddess Sahara,

The To Do List that I write every night before going to bed includes everything that I want to accomplish the next day. The only problem is that even though I complete the majority of tasks on my daily to-do-list, I am not one single step closer to writing my book—which is my ultimate dream goal.

Taking care of my husband and children is my first priority, followed closely by my responsibilities as the director of a child welfare agency. Not only is my job important because of the children’s lives who are saved every day from neglect and abuse; it is also my livelihood and helps put food on the table and savings for my own  kids’ college education.

If finding the time to write a book was easy everyone would do it. My family and friends make jokes about me never writing my book and this really hurts my feelings. I feel like they are implying that I am lazy or just a big kid with a pipe dream; but this is far from the true.

I wish I had never shared my dreams of writing a book with anyone. But the thing that is most devastating of all, is that every night when I write the to do list, I transfer over to the next day “write book.”

Do you think that maybe I should postpone my dream of writing a book to later on in life-- after my kids have gone away to college? Or maybe I could write a book after I retire from my job because I will have time to devote to writing every day without being disturbed?
The thought of taking it off of my daily list of things to do, makes my stomach hurt. In my heart, I really want to write my book, I just don’t know how to get started without neglecting my family and / or my job.

Sincerely,

Done with To Do Lists



Dear Done with To Do Lists,

It is virtually impossible for the average human to just “write a book,” get a degree, become a doctor, lawyer, actor, or teacher. The old adage is: How do you eat an dinosaur?-- One bite at a time. This means that you need to develop a plan on how you will organize not only your time, but break the project down into tiny small bites.

Let’s work backwards from your goal of writing a book. Your first goal should be finding the topic that your want to write about, if you have not already done so. Your first task on your to do list can be to find three to five topics that you could possibly write about. Sleep on the decision. There are will always be critics, and naysayers who will not like you, your book, or your topic. So write to yourself. What information do you wish was more readily available? Be your own audience and overtime you will attract kindred spirits.

After you have selected your topic, narrow it down to sections or possible chapters.  Your chapters are not written in stone, you can change them as you get further along in the process. So don’t stress out thinking that it has to be perfect.

Determine how much research will be needed to write your book for each chapter. Set a goal to research 5-7 books each week or day, depending on your schedule. Make sure your tasks are measurable, otherwise your results will be vague and you won’t feel like you are moving closer to your goal.  Take meticulous notes, outlining each chapter with your ideas.  For example, you may take a week to outline each chapter.  On your to do list, write: Outline 2 pages for chapter 1 on Monday, 2 pages for chapter one on Tuesday, etc…  By the end of the week chapter one will be completely outlined. Use the same process for the other chapters until all of your chapters are outlined.

After you have outlined your chapters, on your daily to-do-list, write down: “type 2-3 pages for chapter one on Monday,” Write 2-3 pages on chapter one on Tuesday,” do this for each day of the week until you complete chapter one. Use this same process to complete each chapter.


Once you breakdown your goal so that it is doable, you may have to give up television for a few months until you complete your book.  Do not put off writing your book if this is something that you really want to accomplish. There will always be an excuse not to go after the deepest desires of your heart. Delegate responsibilities at work and home, say no to social invites, and do not engage in social media until your book is done.  When you begin working on your book, your self-esteem and self-respect will soar in ways that you can never imagine. 

On your to-do-list, do not ever write. “Write book” as a task, it you should always break the task down to small tasks that can be accomplished in 3, 6, or 9, months goal or an annual goal. The human brain sees write a book and does not know where to begin, so it shuts down altogether.

Sincerely,

Jungle Beauty Goddess Sahara

Why Dwyane Wade Cheated and Gabrielle Union Forgave Him



If you look at what has happened between Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union from the limited perspective of being a human on earth—it looks like he is the perpetrator and she is a victim. But I am going to answer your question from a spiritual perspective.

Jungle Beauty Goddess Namib -  
Ruler of the Soul, Divine Purpose, & Destiny
Via the Imagination of Cassandra George Sturges


Dear Jungle Beauty Goddess Namib,

It behooves me why someone as gorgeous, talented, and intelligent as Gabrielle Union would remain with a man who cheated on her with another woman and conceived a child. For God sake, the man did not have the decency and respect for himself or her to use a condom.

Gabrielle Union is so beautiful that any man would feel lucky to have her. I think her decision to remain with a cheating scum, like Dwyane Wade lowers the self of esteem of women all over the world. When are women going wake up and demand respect?


And what about that woman who cheated with him, Aja Metoyer? When are women going stop stabbing each other in the back? I am quite sure this woman knew that Mr. Wade, a famous basketball player who plays for the Miami Heat of the NBA.  I also read that this Aja woman has two daughters by Damon Wayans Jr. –Isn’t this the definition of a gold-digger?

If Gabrielle can’t keep a man faithful to her is there any hope for other women?
My question to you Jungle Beauty Goddesses, do all men cheat?

Sincerely,

Can Never Trust Men Again


Dear Can Never Trust Men Again:

If you look at what has happened between Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union from the limited perspective of being a human on earth—it looks like he is the perpetrator and she is a victim. But I am going to answer your question from a spiritual perspective.


You don’t know what Ms. Union’s or Mr. Wade’s prayers, purpose, and prospects are for their divine plan.  Gabrielle is a 41-year-old actress in a career that demands physical perfection and flawless beauty. What are the chances that she would be looking to have a baby in the near future?  Mr. Wade, 31-year-old, basketball player has custody of his two sons and he cares for another young male relative full-time. It is obvious that this young man loves children and is a good provider.

Mr. Wade is not the only person who has conceived a child from the “break” in their relationship; Ms. Union has also received a “child” through creative energy. Her child is her new series “Being Mary Jane” that airs January 7, 2014 at 10pm, 9C.

The publicity that she is getting from the perceived betrayal of her 4-year-relationship with boyfriend, Dwyane Wade, will bring millions of viewers to her series that would have otherwise been uninterested in tuning in the watch “Being Mary Jane”.  Love tinged with infidelity and cheating is a potent elixir that captivates public interest. It is in the playbook fame 101.The Universe works in mysterious ways. 


You will be surprised at how many humans really get what they want deep down in their souls. There are no mistakes.  Even the woman, Aja Metoyer, is not a bad person or gold digger. You don’t know what her prayers, purpose, and prospects are either.  So many women have babies by men every day, who can’t afford to buy the baby diapers or milk. Maybe there is a lesson that more women need to learn from her—instead criticizing and judging other people’s lives.

Gabrielle Union …prepared, remembered, or attracted the experience of being betrayed by her lover and gracefully accepting his child in her role as Geneva Wade in the 2008 movie, Cadillac Records starring Adrien Brody and Beyonce Knowles. The imagination is the most powerful creator of reality. What humans think about for over 17 seconds begins to manifest in the universe; if there are no oppositional thoughts. You will be surprised at home many celebrities’ lives begin to mirror roles they have played.

And to answer your question, “Do all men cheat?”  No. The trend around the world now is that more women are cheating on men.

Sincerely,

Jungle Beauty Goddess Namib
