A Photo Entry Pt. 2

I'm applying the rewrites for "Mystical Manuscript" on its computer document. After that, the fourth draft will be finished. 


While immersed in my jewelry training, I had to put it to the side, and while it was there, I really worried about it. That its problems and inconsistencies couldn't be fixed. Rereading it again has brought me peace.


Living in a forest has saved me.


We don't own a car, so the walks and hikes to the store and beyond have become my meditations.


Last night, I dreamed bits of concrete rained on us in the mountains. They left smoke streaks across the sky.


I am currently reading Jules Cashford's "The Moon: Myth and Image". This book is helping me come to terms with the motivations of the unconscious in my work.


Things can get frustrating lately. The job offers I get are out of town. I injured my back while bike riding. I tried to make a white chocolate mousse that wouldn't whip beyond white chocolate soup.


But there are also glimpses of magic here and there. 


Like in this photo. A fairy photobomb, perhaps?

  1. I missed your Wednesday post, so I scrolled down and saw the progress. Great photos here. I like the idea of a fairy photobomb :) Strange you should dream of bits of concrete and smoke streaks with the meteorite breaking apart over Russia.

    Get your back well, and have a happy weekend!

    1. I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a video of the meteorite, so that's certainly why I had that dream! It was a very cosmic day... Thank you and you too!
