My first entry for 2013 is from my Art Journal.
The journey has begun.
This is going to be a huge commitment for me, but I'm very excited about it.
The sleeping Moon/Goddess is a card and it reads: "I'll give you this stone of ice and power. Use it to enter the Old Tree's roots and descend lower and lower". (words are mine)
In Shamanic rituals the descent into the roots is the beginning of the journey into the Otherworld.
As this journal is going to be an inner journey, why not starting this way?
It will also contain some pages related to a project I'm working on.. It took me 5 months to put all the pieces together, but now it's almost complete.
I'll tell you something more in a few days. :))
Oh! And don't forget to check out Tamara Laporte's amazing and artful e-classes!
I took part in the 2012 LIFE BOOK annual e-courses and learned a lot.
Today the 2013 LIFE BOOK is starting!!
wow, that is amazing, I can't wait to hear and see more!

ReplyDeleteThat is just wonderful! Have fun with your art journal! :) Are you in life book 2013 as well? I'm taking a break this year.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful journal entry . . . absolutely gorgeous! I don't know about Shamanic rituals, and it is interesting to learn from you about the symbolism/significance of the root and they relationship or entry into the Otherworld . . . your post is lovely and has me thinking about my own spiritual path and the significance dreams play in our journey to understanding otherworld(s) and our inner one.
