Can of Worms
I have not been making new cards recently. It seems to come in cycles. I have three sets of images that are soon-to-be-born cards, but the arrangements haven't formed yet. They are ideas. But I am done with the mundane business book-keeping adventure that I have been on of late and I want to kick-start my creative life again...
Description:
This card was made months ago - it was the tenth card that I made. It was made intuitively and I remember enjoying the darker imagery that came through - some real "do I really want to go there?" feelings. Hehe. I really like the arm flung over the side of the bath which came from an image about relaxation - but here it looks like it is more to do with skeletons in the closet... I have never really worked with this card, other than calling it "Desolate Corners" - a name that doesn't fit today so I have changed it.
Desolate Corners SoulCollage Card
Who are you?
I am the secret corners of the journey
I am the hidden desolation that can be rebuilt
I am the one who shines light on destruction
I am the one who opens the can of worms
I am the one who opens the door and looks inside
I am the one who finds hope in the darkness
What do you have to give me?
I give you the window into the shadow places and I give you confirmation that it is good to explore them. I give you the can of worms and the can opener.
What do you want from me?
I want you to know that the dark and desolate places are rich with growth. I want you to embrace your calling as an activator. I want you to shine light on the dark in yourself and in the world. I want you to look at the three faces of judgement and smile.
