timum optimistic change in your busy creative life pages home a bit more luna see tuesday february 26 2013 following the moon renewing the heart paper mache skin on half size guitar i send all best to you as we wind down this mysterious time of the natural year when deep internal realinment takes place preparing us for the approaching 90 days of spring i ve invested this moon in renewing my heart i ve been sitting in the quiet of my studio creating a tribute to my dear friend and mentor ann dearsley vernon the video shows ann s art created in the 12 months following a cutting edge medical treatment the insertion of an lvad the procedure gave ann a new lease on life her vitality and passion soared and her paintings flowed like the newly revitalized blood in her veins on december 12 at 2am ann suffered a massive stroke since that time she has been unable to communicate clearly and her time is spent in physical occupational and speech therapy sessions every aspect of her recovery is made more complicated and affected by the lvad that literally keeps her on the planet honoring the family s request for holding back and not flooding her with visitors i sat and wondered what i could do so that my love for her was being directed in a healthy way when the idea came create a tribute every step fell into place along came the call for artists to create an instrument of art for the 6th annual sea level festival s both ann and i have been active with tidewater arts outreach since it began in 2004 tao is the organization that hosts the sealevel festival and so i accepted the half size guitar offered to me and went into the studio a work of art using someone elses images in this case ann vernon s paintings as transfers became my new experience as i moved forward to create a tribute to her life well lived begin to lay in color and texture add repeat transfers of ann s painting of her memory of collapsing in her garden one side of the guitar holds a transfer of her painting word

plein aire class in my garden drozda 2012 welcome to following the moon can you sense into and feel the need for an art life stretch it s growing pain time and that s meant to be a healthy and beneficial sensation week by week as luna tics we engage the natural rhythm of the moon cycles and the seasons to find our current creative flow this week we end the illumination moon cycle illumination visits each year during the moon of june of course nature could care less about our calendars and not every moon falls exactly within the confines of a month for example currently we re experiencing the half n half quality of the new moon falling at the midpoint of the month this makes for an interesting opportunity to straddle our keywords the moon cycle now closing is the wisdom illumination cycle we re in the balsamic phase between now and tuesday s new moon each month these last several balsamic days prior to the new moon are perfect for dreaming what do you dream of growing in the cycle ahead the new moon beginning on tuesday june 19 brings us the illumination growth cycle in june july and august we re looking at the most fertile and expansive period of the natural year whatever you are intending for the natural year s walk from equinox in march all the way round to next spring when we begin anew really put a push on now read more subscribe to the

entranced by andy warhol s silver pillow moca 2012 drozda welcome to following the moon it s the first quarter phase of the illumination cycle each year at this time we have the opportunity to push out and make contact with lightening up once again i m sharing my artist friend sandra s writing she publishes an essay on the first quarter each moon month the new moon in gemini on may 20 began a 29 6 day cycle during which the emphasis is on information the quality of our thoughts shapes the quality of our lives throughout this lunation we are choosing what to bring into our consciousness and thus into our experience the results of our efforts will become evident seven months from now during the capricorn lunation consider the differences between reporting and gossip knowledge and intelligence versatility and superficiality this is a good cycle to engage in remedial studies address transportation issues or to make contact with others via correspondence and telephone gemini correlates to illumination on the medicine wheel arriving from the place of wisdom developed during the taurus lunation we now occupy a place of illumination illumination allows us to interpret and make use of the clarity and wisdom gained thus far in the cycle that began with the aries lunation at this place in the cycle we develop a road map of sorts to guide us through the rest of the year during the 1st quarter phase of this cycle it s important to be discriminating pay close attention to everything heard and said filter out facts from speculation identify and break away from old mental patterns and styles of communication especially as they occur in your daily activities and routines cultivate habits which make your communication more efficient sometimes the smallest actions can have far reaching effects and that is certainly true during this phase simple practices like counting silently to ten before responding to another in conversation here are some additional suggestions for moving with spirit during this 1st quarter phase may 28 31 exercise with a hula hoop write a book review or recommendation attend a neighborhood meeting or block party contact your siblings sign up for a class or register for school practice yoga play some mind games and tease your brain physical activity during this phase should be detailed and well considered all actions this phase need to be taken from a place of service and humility questions to consider during this phase how do you express your feelings of appreciation when are you most verbal and what words do you use repeatedly what triggers your curiosity where and with whom would it serve you best to speak your truth and communicate with greater clarity how are your relationships with siblings and or neighbors what situations bring out the student teacher or debater in you affirm i communicate with honor and sensitivity may we walk the path of illumination together with humility and grace read complete post
