To spring and rebirth

in

When you don't see the end in sight
The cold breathing down your neck
The fear it is going to over take you
She steps in with grace
She whispers,
"Dear one, just have faith, for you know I always come for you."
She pulls some magic from her sack
With a touch of warmth
A gentleness about her eyes


And you feel your cold toes thawing
Because you could no longer bare the constraints of shoes
You just had to dip your toes in the earth
Just a bit too soon


Ostara, the great mother of Spring
Oh
With the smell of sweet honeysuckle and jasmine
And the wet earth beneath your finger nails
The explosion of blooms and blossoms
The mischief of squirrels in the trees
The fertility of a bunny
The goldenrod sunsets
Topped with a warm soft breeze.

Conjuring.

in

In the darkened world,

Through stormy skies and howling winds,

She conjures.

Drawing power from her amethyst and harnessing it through her athame,

She begins.

I am so very honored to be able to capture this gorgeous necklace. This necklace is my soul mate. Since I've gotten it I've worn it at least 4 times a week. I can't wait to photograph it some more. Thank you so much Catie! And this make up, OH this make up. It's some of the best make up out there. Also, the gal that runs it? Super sweet. Thanks Michelle! Can't wait to use it in more photos, not to mention in my day to day.

A special thanks to my friend Jodi for letting me borrow her gorgeous vintage dress.

Honestly, I am not even sure if I like the top photo. But I am proud of these for all the work I've put into them. I want to put these photos out into the world, mostly because they show me trying. I am stepping out of my comfort zone. This year I am reconnecting with my art, the visions and dreams from my soul. And it will get messy and ugly, but through that comes growth. I never want to become stuck. And I've been there. Deep in the mud, stuck and uninspired. So if nothing else, here's me, being inspired.

Oh Mother,

Great Mother,

To you we bow down.

Oh Mother,

Sweet Mother,

Blessed is our earth.

Your womb filled with possibility.

Your hands filled with love.

Oh Mother,

The Mother,

Oh your power and might.

Humbled to you,

In prayer.

Blessed be.
