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.

GOD AS ARTIST- SACRED MATERIAL



Sacred materials
Taking care of ones materials, paint brushes, etc. is very important. We never see God’s materials and yet his creations are marvelous, awesome and fills us with humility..
Certainly He must also take good care of his 'materials'. The 'material' is pure potential, waiting patiently, begging to be transformed into beautiful and sacred objects which can be loved and admired by all.
Spectacular and awe-inspiring creations, invariably elicit positive emotions from us, they are necessary to keep the Universe healthy and happy.
We are God’s Art Material. When we are born, we are fat and chubby and full of juicy potential. We lay in our bassinettes, side by side in the maternity ward, like little paint tubes. During our life on earth God presses us and extracts from us our pigment and paints life around us. At the end of our life, when we are haggard, empty and used up, we all lie down side by side in the drawers and shelves of the mortuary and then, side by side in the cemetery. But what God has created with our blood and marrow and thoughts and emotions, that is what lives on eternally.
