Blossom
Sometimes when I set out to create a SoulCollage
card it turns out quite differently than what I expected. Like this
one. I sat down with magazines around me, flipping through for images,
intent on creating a card that reflected a phrase I had been meditating
on - "I am the glory of God".
I ended up going in a slightly different direction. I'm still not sure
exactly what this card is trying to reflect. I've thought of the
seasons - winter turning to spring; of the cycle of life - birth,
death, renewal; and finally of "blossoming". Blossoming or birthing
the crone (although I am not quite near crone phase in my life).
Today I got my copy of Christine's latest reflective art journal "What is Blossoming Within You" and I read the following which ties in so well to this card I had been working on:
"There is a playfulness and
spontaneity to the season of spring, that invites us to join this
joyful abandon. We are called to both listen deeply to the blossoming
within ourselves as well as to forget ourselves - setting aside all of
our seriousness about what we are called to do and simply enter the
space of being." What is Blossoming Within You? Christine Valters Paintner, PhD
What are you longing to give birth to as spring approaches?
