the moon, the night - and filling time
The Moon. That card on the left is from The Tarot of the Spirit deck. Mysteries of the night. My drawing ended up looking like the moon is holding the earth up like a crystal ball and examining it. I like those little squiggles that they used and used them too. The moon and the earth are melding and coming together. There is an attraction. I guess I will take this drawing to mean I should try and relate more to others and be understanding of situations today.
My mind lately has been full of granny squares. I have been knitting and crocheting cotton washcloths for Christmas presents when I have spare time and from there I got into looking up patterns for making granny square blankets. By making granny squares (which are small objects) it will be easy to work on the blankets all year long and easy to carry the stuff around with me. It is exciting to think about colors and combinations of colors. I made one many years ago from a kit - it had everything you needed. That one was mainly black with jewel tone colors in the squares. I gave to my brother and he used it for many years on his bed at night. That was back in the days when I worked night shift at Polk and had many hours of time to kill. Crocheting and knitting was a good way to pass time - about half the ladies I worked with did it. I ranged between doing that and reading. For a while I even took a portable spinning device in to work each night and spun my own wool. For me - it is good to have things to fill my mind. Things to do with my hands.
