Mère


Mère is French for Mother. The Goddess Mother holds the earth next to her bosom with a devoted loving gaze.

Yes, her skin is green, for she is a part of the earth, just like the rest of her children.

The Dove represents the feminine energies of peace, maternity and prophecy. The shadows and the light in the circle represent dawn and dusk...Although its song is heard throughout the day, it seems more distinct in dawn and dusk. These are the "Between Times"-a time in which there is a thinning of the veils between the physical and the spiritual, the past and the future...telling us to mourn what has passed, but awaken to the promise of the future. ("Animal Speaks" Ted Andrews). 

Santa Has a Special Key


Ever wanted to know how Santa gets into your home, when there is no chimney? Well, now you know.

November Blue Crow and the Autumn Moth

For a mother's birthday. Ted Andrews of "Animal Speaks" writes,"Where ever crows are, there is magic." They are a symbol of creation and spiritual strength. Other magical voices remind us that crows are messengers. 

Moths and butterflies represent "transmutation and the dance of joy"- Ted Andrews

To the left of the crow is a cluster of leaves, representing the past, and upper right- the leaves mutate into moths & butterflies, taking flight, therefore symbolizing the future, and changes of the unknown. Life is a dance. The metaphoric reference is also about the ability to let go, and go with the flow. To trust the process change.

Mirror Image and the Depiction of a Woman


The lines on the woman's face to the left represent the lines of her life.  Her left hand over her heart as if to protect it. Her eye's have a distant sadness.

The drawing on the right is the same drawing reversed, but this time with the lines removed. Although it is the same exact drawing, the faces are completely different. There is also no hand covering the heart of the woman on the right side.

Perhaps the message is "what you see on the outside is not necessarily what is known on the inside." 

Perhaps a Valentine's Day Card offering a depiction of a woman's wisdom? Or, a view of her inner light?

I would be curious to know what you think about the two faces from the same exact drawing. Do you know of a story to tell?

A Brother's Birthday

For my brother on his birthday. He is connected to the earth and all her living beings adore him. It's a most beautiful sacred sight to behold. He is a magical person who came into this world with a gift and precious connection. I love him dearly.
