Four moon flowers bloomed in the studio last night, sweet scented magic. This time is also a matter of passion, there is an emotional depth when you vibrate in tune with everything around you. You are more sensitive and aware of life energy in all its forms.
Today has been a day of seemingly extreme heat, from the build-up of former hot days, and I didn't feel very passionate or vivacious, and felt in-tuned with all the wrong things at first. If not wrong, I'd say uncomfortable and pushy.
I did my yoga, to center, and Robert worked on my meridians, then the creative tension began to lift, and the passionate inspiration could begin to enter. Often each position in the alchemical process has a two-edged sword, and once you get it balanced, you can begin to move into the creative aspect of the alchemical position.
It is good to realize this and ask to be able to balance within the position, so you can utilize it alchemically.
Robert & I worked on a new piece, listened to music, watched a film, as we worked. It makes it festive and easier to move through the work, because the mind is engaged within the creativity of the music and the film. The creative passion can enter more freely as the mind plays.
The moon tonight is beautiful over the river, and I can see it fully from our windows.
We're working on our show for December, "The Coming of Fairies", and it is so fun to see who and what will appear in the work.
Water seed of fire was perfect for the movement, because this realm moves what we think and do into unison with what we feel. So you bathe with the fire of your creativity, and you dry with the water of your emotions, till you are balanced and a new world appears in your life.
"Often each position in the alchemical process has a two-edged sword, and once you get it balanced, you can begin to move into the creative aspect of the alchemical position." -- Thanks for this great insight! Yesterday was definitely a day of trying to find that balance, but I didn't realize that was what I was moving, so the irritability "reigned supreme" for much of the day. With this understanding, it will be much easier & faster to move through this space when it happens again. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful to see you two being able to drop into painting that day, you glowed with relief and determination. THe pieces completed are beautiful and again, full of soooooooo much information and vision. THanks for a wonderful stormy evening and some sirious talking :)
ReplyDeleteYou two have something truly wonderful. Being able to enter the creative process hand and hand and never lose sight of one another. I find sometimes when I go deep in my work I struggle to find the right pace and setting. The idea of having someone there to give you the support and complete acceptance is priceless. You two have that and always will.Love. Namaste.
