rose1971: Please can some tell this whatever that her original name is Oriah, as she used to sign her work. Mountain Dreamer is an indian translation.
Hiya Rose I found this...an excerpt from her personal site...
"Oriah has a long and unusual history with her name. In 1984, at thirty years of age, after the onset of severe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, she had a dream where several elderly women- those she calls Grandmothers in the dream- told her to change her given name to Oriah as part of the process of healing. Nervous about doing something others might see as strange, but desperate to be well, she took the name Oriah and has been called this (by everyone but her mother) since that time. Twenty years later, while doing a book tour, on three successive nights, in three different cities, she was told by people at the bookstores she was visiting that Oriah means light of God in Hebrew, and that it is an ancient Jewish custom to change a patient’s name when doing a healing, to invite new and healing energies."
Ccincy: Ok know it all.If you would've taken the time to click on the word 'About' you would've seen a a pic of her and her name Oriah House.This is Oriah's own personal fb page.Care to tell me I'm wrong again.
