But her big learning curve happened after she moved with her new husband Richard from Vancouver to Los Angeles. That city in 1977 was a hotbed of competing approaches and personalities; and it was there that R&T; formed their first coven. Their wandering took them to New York, where competition among traditions was just as intense, and they learned all they could. Finally in 1979 they moved back to Canada, to Toronto. In 1979 they opened The Occult Shop on Queen St, with a temple space in the back, and on the night of their first ritual a brick smashed through the shop window. The resulting press attention helped the business succeed. People who came to the shop demanded a Church, where they could worship openly like people of other religions, so they formed the Wiccan Church of Canada with R&T; as their first priest & priestess. Since then, R&T; have watched the Canadian pagan community grow, being involved in the first prison ministry, the first Pagan festival, the first Pagan conference, introducing Ontario Pagans to Americans and vice versa. For 30 years, they have watched or been part of every aspect of the growth of the Ontario Pagan Community.

In addition, Powers utilized her gifts as a painter to create the original cover art on all three CDs, melding the lyrical imagery with her oil paintings to present a timeless collection of music and art. http://www.laurapowers.com/ Shaman Starseed Brahm Stuart & Catalina Colibri B.
