Walking down to the sea

Feeling fragmented This triple conjunction in Capricorn + the moon here too... Plus my natal Capricorn Stellium. How Saturnian can you get? The poetry is flat and deadly, the Scorpion’s edge teetering before Sag and Aquarius laughs it into something new. For now I am fragmented into blocks again. Chunky, residule stuckness. Faith and love and deep breath. Choose the anomaly, choose the out-of-character action; Surprise yourself. Fractals will reform as form changes and evolves. We are but a mass of bubbles.

Embroidery based on Playa de Las Terrasitas, Tenerife

A lino print of a time spent endlessly hiking for months with two rucksacks back and front weighing 20kg total. My walking sticks became essential extensions to navigate the craggy volcanic hills. Embracing the wind, realising how unnecessary were most of my possessions. Feeling aches and pains and mental exertion too rapid to "process" we ....just ..........kept .................going My Capricorn stellium came to the fore and inner reserves were tapped. This print is of the humour and hubris of that stage of life. That messiness had to be pounded out of the vessel through tenacity. Sometimes now, in comfort, I long for that strength I mustered on those hills with the bastion of my soul mate drawing me onwards with his infinite patience among the cactus and the palm.
