40 Days (Lent Project)

by

A dear friend invited me to celebrate Lent by creating a piece of devotional art every day for 40 days. Here is the results of 40 days of contemplation, prayer and creation. The order of days starts on the top left row and proceeds right and down to the next row, most days a different symbol or theme was present, although some days were abstract. (thanks to Alison for inspiring me to participate.)

Metatron’s Cube (derived from the Fruit of Life) begets the five Platonic solids, including a star tetrahedron (stellated octahedron)

Metatron’s Cube is a modern New Age name for a geometric figure composed of 13 equal circles with lines from the center of each circle extending out to the centers of the other 12 circles. Some New Age teachers call a variant of this figure the Fruit of Life.

Solstice Blessings, may the light shine deeply within You~

Prayer to the four directions by Valum Votan:
From the East, House of Light,
may wisdom dawn in us so we may see all things in clarity.
From the North, House of Night,
may wisdom ripen in us so we may know all from within.
From the West, House of Transformation,
may wisdom be transformed into right action, so we may do what must be done.
From the South, House of the Eternal Sun,
may right action reap the harvest so we may enjoy the fruits of planetary being.
From Above, House of Heaven,
may star people and ancestors be with us now.
From Below, House of Earth,
may the heartbeat of her crystal core bless us with harmonies to end all war.
From the Center, Galactic Source,
which is everywhere at once, may everything be known as the light of mutual love.
*Oh Yum, Hunab Ku, Evam Maya E Ma Ho!
Oh Yum, Hunab Ku, Evam Maya E Ma Ho!
Oh Yum, Hunab Ku, Evam Maya E Ma Ho!
