Magical Stance February 2000 Acrylics on Paper 16”x 20” |

| The winds of change, the fire of the heart, the sap of the womb and bark of her skin – all will answer her call. | |||
| In February 2000, I did a second
session of the Hero’s Journey with
a new group, the first time I had done it as a week long intensive. For
the first assignment I did “The Doer.”
That painting felt overwhelming and exhausting – a catalog of all
I was doing that spring. Susan came up with a brilliant homework assignment
as usual – to choose one stance among the many to be with for the
week of the class. I chose the priestess (or maybe the priestess chose me!)
She who grounds down into the earth with her roots and up into the sky with
her branches. In touch with the moon ready to call in the elements –
whether solitary, with her sisters or with a mixed group. The altar took
things another step to give her ceremony and storytelling tools at the ready
near where her feet are planted. A tree indeed.
Written for the Out of the Ashes Show, January 2004 This painting is already sold. |
