Artwork story / transmission :
She Closed Her Eyes to Dance with Life (EAGLE)
She had been looking outward for so long. There was a sense of grief that she could not understand. A friction within her began to build, like a storm rising...all the times she had....rejected her Self, abandoned her Self, dishonoured her Self....she could not go on. Not like this. So she stopped. And she prayed. She prayed to her heart. Show me the way as I do not know what to do.And with that prayer she brought her hands to her heart and finally...finally...she closed her eyes and looked within. And so did her heart answer. and so now she followed. One step at a time, following her heart. Honouring her Self. Forgiving her Self. Loving her Self. Feeling her way along the path, finding all the pieces of her Self. Re-unifying with her Self. and therefore discovering the current of life , the rhythm of life, the melody of life.
Finding The Path (GOAT)
She is a warrior and a wanderer. She is a warrior of the heart. She climbs the great mountains with the aid of her dear ally the goat. She bears light as she travels. She may shape shift as she goes and is not scared of anyone as she has the warriors heart and the magicians gifts. She is the one you may see along your path and feel a sense of uncanny about her. You may feel drawn to her or you may feel she wants to be left alone. You may look at her and wonder about her story. You may feel she has a story to tell. If you find the courage to ask her she will give you gifts for your journey through the tales she tells. She may even support your travels through the razors edge pathways of the mountain climb.
Guardian Between the worlds (OWL)
This woman lives in a tribal village in the snowy mountains. She is here to be the guardian between the worlds. Carrying messages, with the help of her owl spirit animal who is also a messenger, they can move between the physical and spiritual planes. She is her to keep the ancient wisdom of the tribes once been alive.
Songs of the Forest (RAINBOW BIRD)
Deep within the forest lives...the singer of all songs...she hears all melodies...she weaves the web of the songs of the heart. She calls to you. To hear your Heart Song. She softly sings it to you in your slumber. She is waiting for you to answer her call. And when you do she will illuminate your melody that is to be woven into the tapestry of the world.
It's Time (LION)
We have been called upon for a while now. But now you are hearing the call. The call is no longer soft. It is the roar of a lion and it is undeniable. It is time. It is time to respond to this call of your heart. To respond to the force of courage rising within you that is ready to burst all spectrums of your life open. New pathways are here. You have been holding yourself down and the force of pressure has been building and building underneath you to rise. A roar from your heart is splitting through time to shatter all illusions, to forgive all, to accept all, and to fiercely with Love guide you now in each moment. There is no more resistance. There is a willingness that fills your heart with a radiance that pierces through the veil. This roar has awakened the ancient wisdom within you. It too is rising as each call is answered.
Earth Dream Weaver (BUTTERFLIES)
She looks like she is of modern ilk, but she has been taught the ancient art of weaving. Weaving has been passed down, from Mother to daughter through out her lineage, through out time. It is in her bones and her hands before she can even use them. The very first Mother learnt this weaving from the Earth. and so it is the Earths weavings. She has the message of the Earth in her hands and so now in the modern world will she weave the Earth's messages. A returning to nature. A returning to the essential nature.
