- Emerging From the Fire
Several years ago I took a pottery class and from a basic assignment, this piece emerged from my clay; a waking dream of sorts. At first I was bothered by what I had created but later realized that it was my subconsious giving form to my rebirth as a woman in my 30’s. Being born the first time is hard labor for both mother and baby, but as we rebirth ourselves throughout our life it tends to be more of a spiritual and emotional experience. It can be exciting, difficult, easy, educational, empowering and humbling. But, it’s all good as we dream, change, and grow.
One of the feelings I’m experiencing lately is to get back to my creative outlets whether it be pottery, painting, drawing or quilting. I think I’ll meditate on that one and create more time for myself to let the unconscious speak to me again.
How about you?
