Gathering Earth Spirits



pinecone spiral dance...

As Fall continues to descend on us daily I was inspired to gather Earth Spirits and play. Inspired by this:

Thank you Deb @ Bee Creative for giving me the information!!!! http://beecreative.typepad.com/


rock and acorns 


wood, stone, and acorn ....


I went into a local business and came across this postcard on a bulletin board.  
It seemed to "call out" to me when I saw it on the board. 
Initially I walked away from the board but, decided to go back
and look closer at the postcard.

I asked the person in charge of the place of business if they knew this person??? They replied "No, but said I could have the postcard."



This is the backside of the postcard.


Later in the day I was visiting a book, crystal, stone store. I went in to pick
up some rose oil and I quickly dashed through the store and look what I found!!!!
It jumped off the shelf at me!!!! (metaphorically speaking.)

THE BOOK!
This is a story of one women's journey in to the supernatural world.

 As a child she thought everyone experienced the things she did.
 As she grew up she realized that not everyone was aware of the paranormal and that angels and spirits are around us everyday. She became very quiet about her awareness. 
As she has matured she realized that it was important to share her story so that others who may have experienced similar experiences would know that they are not alone...
"She is an everyday mother and wife."



A lovely music box song by George Winston.


Lastly, I have been working on a skull for my Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) altar, to honor
those who have passed on. I ordered a pattern from Sublime Stitching. I love her stuff and we all need
to support our creative fellow Sista! : )



Stitiching Fun!

stones


I began this project many months ago. I was inspired by this:

stones.html


I finally found some stones near this ancient stone fence near my home.....


I am uncertain how old this fence is but there are many of these for miles and miles of road...
Ancient bits of history. I wonder as I drive along who built them and what were they like?
Were they building them to mark their land or keep their sheep from wandering?
It does not matter. I love the Ancient charm.

Inspired to take both projects further by this:
