Mark Belanger was born on December 14, in Lachine, Quebec, near Montreal. His spiritual journey began very early in life, leading him to a path which focused on attaining balance and healing in relationships with people and animal friends. In the early nineties, he learned the craft of restoring and refinishing antiques in the way of European craftsmanship and continues, today, to enjoy bringing new life antiques. Mark moved to Nanaimo, on Vancouver Island, in 1996 to enjoy a peaceful life surrounded by nature. He met Eileen in 1997 and began his exploration of Tarot and continued metaphysical studies. Mark has been instrumental in the birth of Lobelia's Lair, nurturing it and providing his unique insight and creativity to it's growth and development.
