Neptune in the 7th
The following quote appears within this collage:
"O hidden Life, Vibrant in every atom
O hidden Light, shining in every creature
O hidden Love, embracing all in oneness
May all who feel themselves as one with thee
Know they are therefore one with every other"
--- Annie Besant
Das Kind is Tot
Peace be to Dimitri, sweet little cockatiel kindred spirit, now and forever enfolded in the stillness of Eternity...
"We are only visiting here, but our visit is an honor, a mitzvah, and the entire earth kingdom is blessed by our presence."
--Marianne Williamson
Auspicious
This collage arose from a dream I had of a bright yellow bird that landed on my outstretched hand. It filled me with such happiness, it seemed to be a good omen.
"...heaven and earth both testify
that God is a meadow in some high way,
a meadow moreover revealed in ours
where only the children find the flowers."
-- Jessica Powers (A Meadow Moreover)
Motherlode
Core of inner fire..
"Like a silkworm weavingher house with love from her marrow,
and dying in her body's threads winding tight,
round and round,
I burn desiring what the heart desires.
Cut through, O Lord,
my heart's greed,
and show me your way out."
-- Mahadeviyakka
Fairy Tales
I was disappointed that many of the tiny elves and nymphs and woodland sprites don't come into clear focus in this photo. Then I recalled that fairy folk are shy of human scrutiny and prefer to remain on the fringes of visibility. They only reveal themselves to those who win their confidence.
"When I walk through thy woods,may my right foot and my left foot
be harmless to the little creatures
that move in its grasses: as it is said
by the mouth of thy prophet,
They shall not hurt nor destroy
in all my holy mountain."
-- Rabbi Moshe Hakotun
