THE MANDALA PROJECT - How it came to life
If you know someone whose day would be brightened by this Mandala, please pass it along! Even more magical, with a love note from you!
The Mandala Project: #32
The day after many forces of nature had conspired to facilitate Raven’s journey from this realm to the next, I was called to create this altar to mark her transition.
Of course several heart-shaped rocks presented themselves as I was building (there are no less than seven, perhaps you’ll find more).
What I most love about this Mandala is the circling/spiralling pattern that honours sky and flight, and that it’s built from the stones of a river bed, reflecting the grounding of earth and the underworld.
The water that once covered the stones is an essential player as well, its voice still present just a few feet away, a reminder of the elemental relationship between sky and earth.
It very much felt like each piece that came together for this Mandala brought its own unique contribution, all offering a bow of recognition and respect for the shimmering mystery that is Raven.
In the end what emerged was a joyful celebration of her transition, and of the interconnection that weaves our worlds beautifully together into one vibrant, dynamic and creative whole.
Farewell Raven friend, and deep gratitude for the wisdom you left in your wake.
