Ponder as I walk
Reflection of elements
World in a raindrop.

Transmutation May 4, 2016
Slender green fellow
Slithers past the green and golds
S shaped messenger.
Art Prescription: Snake medicine is powerful. It is the energy of wholeness, and the ability to experience anything willingly and without resistance. “Without resistance!!!” No!
Letting go of that which no longer serves us is a very tough life lesson. Change is super hard!
What makes you feel light as a feather? What weighs you down?
Like snake, life is about gliding through the grass as if floating on air.

Fresh wildflower wreaths
With pansies, bluets, roses
Bountiful circle.
Art Prescription: Anything in a circle is so pleasing. I think it taps into something deep and symmetrical in our DNA. It’s fun to make a real nature mandala. These are made with models from my garden and watercolor.
