An educator by trade and lifelong musician, under the musical project finfeather she blends genres to create a wide variety of songs, many of which are hymns planets, archetypes, and the decans of the tarot. Her astrological self is currently materializing in a flirtatious experiment with an alter ego, Lizzie, a devoted student of timelord, Saturn. Mara brings Lizzie's griffs, or creations, to life through music, poetry, prose, contemplations and conversations with the many divine individuals she is fortunate to know in community near and far.</p><p>Listen to her music on <a target="_blank" href="https://finfeather.bandcamp.com/">Bandcamp</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://soundcloud.com/mara-smith-787150152">SoundCloud</a>.</p><p>Visit Mara’s website: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.lizziesgriffs.com/">www.lizziesgriffs.com</a></p><p>Connect with her on IG <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/finfeathermusic/?hl=en">@finfeathermusic</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/lizzies_griffs/?hl=en">@lizzies_griffs</a></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
