Coming of Age in the Aquarian

Mankind is evolving in mind as well as in body. Indeed the body is a reflection of mind or consciousness.

As we enter the 2000-year span of the Age of Aguarius, we find that the ground rules are subtly different from those of the preceeding age, Pisces. Many changes since the turn of the century in 1900 indicate greater emphasis on a scientific approach to life, choosing a way of life that is more suited to one's personal needs, and redefining roles, such as God-self, man-woman, parent-child, society-individual, and so on.

To me life must be a conscious journey to have meaning. But mind must be balanced with heart.

Recorded here in this manifestation of the Aquarian age, the web-log, are personal observations, stuff found, helpful information, and the occasional point of illumination. It seems to me presenting topics and tidbits related to Aquarius, the sign, will help define what to expect in this brave new age. Also, I hope to find indicators of how the new Age is unfolding in the world around us.

Artwork Update

Since I last talked about artwork a painting has been finished, another started, and the final picture in the series(Georgia on my Mind) decided. Here they are.

The painting called "Ancient Easter" has been retitled "Abiding Flowers, Fallen Idol." It was shown during January, 2007, in a local exhibit of works by members of IGCA, International Gallery of Contemporary Art.
The painting called "Hollyhock, Cherokee Woman and Urn" has been started. Posted here now is the half-finished painting. Only the light-and-dark values have been registered. I'm a little dismayed by the eyes--up close they look slightly crossed, at a distance they look intense. Should I fix them or let them be? Working on this painting has been hard; I don't seem to want to do it. Or maybe I just don't want to paint anymore. Time will tell.
On Flickr I found this great photo that promises good possibilities for texture. The photographer, rgbphoto has graciously allowed me to use it. The working title is "Bearded Iris".
