VIGILANCE

 

 Aleta Michaletos 'At Odds-Imperfect Perfection' 2005 (355x455) oil on board.

'Weeds are tenacious and whether they multiply quickly or slowly, it is always surely. 
They are powerful and deliberate in their quest to strangle, overpower and survive.

Be careful not to underestimate the tenacity of weeds and perhaps the best advice would be to use their example in establishing your own creative urges.
If your intention is to bloom or bear abundant fruit, take whatever precautions you possibly can, to ensure your own survival and legacy'. - Aleta Michaletos

THE CHRYSALIS & THE BUTTERFLY

INTENTIONS

What I wish for you and Intend for myself, 

is to Gain the Strength and the Courage to Continue

the PILGRIMAGE of TRANSFORMATION and GROWTH, 

whilst simultaneously Resisting and Battling to Free oneself, 

from the Constraints and Encasement of the firm Cocoon, 
 the GOLDEN PUPA or CHRYSALIS 

 (which Paradoxically also signifies Comfort and Protection)

This Vulnerable Transitional State, 

where the Eventual Energetic Potential of the Butterfly 

is still Captured in a state of Incomplete Development,

often Attracts Predators and then
Inevitably and Tragically the GOLDEN PUPA
becomes a Mausoleum. 

If you Patiently yet Invisibly 

Nurture your Creative Qualities,

Keep your Energies Intact,

 Remain Alert, Sharp and Vigilant,

 your Reward will be to Prosper and be Successful

 after the Break-Through 
and claim Your Unique Opportunity to

Fly High and Fly Free in 2018 and beyond.
