BACK IN THE BOOKSHOP: MOUNTAIN FANTASY (1978) 1st printing of this fantastic collage classic from 1978 by Penny Slinger and Nik Douglas, published by Dragon’s Dream of Paris. 158 pages of full-colour sensual and kaleidoscopic photographic collage art and poetry. “‘Mountain Ecstasy’ was my celebration of Tantric alchemy, freed from any restrictions, out of the confines of the house (‘An Exorcism’) and into the wide-open Technicolor landscapes of the high Himalayas. I never really thought of the collages as being material for a book – as they were rather outrageous – but Dragon’s Dream wanted to publish. Whereas ‘An Exorcism’ had been mostly my own photographs, the images for ‘Mountain Ecstasy’ were nearly all ‘objects trouves’. I had traveled for the first time in exotic parts (India, Nepal, Thailand) and the work reflects this input. Thousands of copies of ‘Mountain Ecstasy’ were subsequently seized and burnt by British customs, my comment at the time was, “They thought it was pornography, they didn’t realize it was its antidote”. – Penny Slinger “Magnificant erotic assemblages of nudes, flowers, masks and rocks against landscapes, they tease, they excite and they dazzle the eye and in the end the sheer voluptuous beauty of these erotic montages finally exist in their own right as works of art and nary a bullet or a bomb in them.” – Arthur Moyse, Freedom Anarchist Review One copy via our website. #worldfoodbooks #pennyslinger #nikdouglas #mountainfantasy #1978 (at WORLD FOOD BOOKS)

Happy Full Moon, Ladies! 🔹 As we head toward the Solstice (the shortest day of the year and the longest night), please compare this "dip" as your last chance (for now) to clear internal psychological and emotional debris before stepping into the returning light of Winter. You could also use this time to complete visioning and planning before stepping into the action of the New Year. 🔹 This compares to the transition between your Week 1 bleeding/Resting phase to Week 2, your Building phase each month. It is this place in your cycle where your former uterine lining has been bleeding out of you, flushing out (after breaking down in Week 4, the Firewalk) and is now in its final emptying of that debris before building a new lining and starting the monthly process over. 🔹 I've been taking a break over the past few weeks - doing the social media diet thing—taking time for myself, evaluating and reevaluating, and finalizing plans for the Building Phase of the reemerging Winter Light. I use this full moon time to shine a big light on how my internal processes fit into the outer world and how I can best serve others as well as myself. 🔹 How are you using the real-time dark transition of Fall to Winter and the bright expression of the Full Moon? Will you be able to take your insights during this transitional time and apply them to the transition between Week 1 and Week 2 of your monthly hormonal sequence. 🔹 All of this gives you a wonderful opportunity to align with your daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly body clock. Pay attention to the seasonal changes and you'll surf the changes in your monthly body clock with ease and excitement! 🔹Special thanks to artist #pennyslinger for this image, "Black Madonna." 🔹 What are you doing a final "let go" of, or evaluating, or planning at this juncture? 🔹 -- . . . . . #4s4w #4seasons4weeks #4seasonsin4weeks #suzannemathismcqueen #cycletracking #womb #wombhealing #wellnessmama #wombwisdom #connectwithnature #connectyourcyclewithnaturesrhythms #politicsofthewomb #mybodymychoice #inspiration #13muses #femaleempowerment #goddessrising #treehugger #mooncyclemedicine #mooncycle #integrativemedicine #holistichealing #yogamamas https://www.instagram.com/p/B5-TQRahvrf/?igshid=1etrmqj00q30n
