Sharing with you here a slide show by one of my new favorite spiritual artists. Her name is El* Brooks and she lives in South Australia. Aboriginal dreamtime spiritual creations seem to influence her work. Thank you El* for the gift of you, for sharing.

New Moon
We entered the New Moon phase last night. So today is the first full day of our beautiful New Moon.
The celebration of the new moon is a women's holy day in the Hebrew tradition. Rosh Chodesh as it is called. A time to rest, relax and just be. Celebrating the start of a new month.
New moon is also a good time for starting new projects, implement new goals and work towards growth in what ever endeavor you have set forth.
I believe it is very important to take time and acknowledge the cycles of our planets. Those very cycles are very much a part of your life and should be witnessed. The changing of the seasons and even night into day.
When we take time to observe change that is going on around us...the ebb and flow of life's energy it helps us to stay centered and focus on what is within.
Our body is part and parcel of the earth and what ever affects the earth also affects our body, mind and spirit.
I am thankful for the opportunity to see yet another New Moon in my lifetime here on Mother Earth.
Just for Today, I will take time to acknowledge the wonders of the passing of time. And will be that much more conscientious of how I number my days.

What Dreams Are Made Of
"Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream." ~~Lao Tzu
"Nuture your mind with great thoughts. To believe in the heroic makes heroes." ~~Benjamin Disraeli
"There are times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world and give birth to new ideas and ventures. There are times of flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom, energized and expanding. And there are times of fruition, when things come to an end. They have reached their climax and must be harvested before they begin to fade. And finally of course, there are times that are cold and cutting and empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a distant drea. Those rhythms in life are natural events. They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things are." ~~Chogyam Trungpa
