within a dream within , directed by the unseen outside

"Try to catch the light on the water!"

Who ? What ?  When ? Where ?
I see fingerprints in the shaping of  Personal Destiny
The circumstance of meeting.
The curvature of fate.
guiding and placing
moving influencing
Around Everything

Touch it back, if you can,

or point at it,  on occasion,  and say, " thanks", or "wow," or nothing at all.
It Exists without  acknowledgement or tribute.
With a little basic respect and good intentions wonderful Magic takes Place.
To share that Secret Knowledge with People, to point that out,  is a habit of sorts.
Born from instinct.

Dream within a Dream

Self interest and Sacrifice

Self interest and Sacrifice are contradictory conceptual motivations.
Self interest is considered the usual, normal , expected behavior.
Sacrifice is unexpected, unusual, special and weird,
Actions that stand out and apart as being intended for the benefit of another.

Spiritual growth outside of the Box

Tree of Worlds within Worlds within unfinished

                           We, the Living, have a limited experience of what we think this World is.
Some how,  inside of Us,  is the Knowledge of the Para-sensual dimension beyond Birth and Death,
a Place within a Place,    a Home within a Home ,   a Body within a Body, a Space within a Space.
                                                              as well as
A Space outside of Space,  A Body outside of Body, A Home outside of Home, A Place outside of Place
                                                               as well as
The Ways Between, The vascular continuity and connectivity, Spirit - Soul ,    Travel-Communication
                            Energy pathways, currents of thought, moving, returning
                                 a network of caring we exist within. Naturally

seriously?

Re-Emergent Rhubarb, replanted, remaining on the Property from the previous Owner.


I have come to find that Ritual Performance and  Religious practice  are more of an exercise in Persistence than Precision.
More in the spirit of " the show must go on!"  than " I hope I do not  get it wrong!"
Both involve a form of nervous energy. Psychic intent.Magical Theatrical Legacy.
Paranormal polarizing  Pressure- Stress- attraction and repulsion leading to the action - movement- direction sense - guidance seeking, Worship reflex. .
We are propelled away from things as much as We are drawn in.  Growth

Is Our  Special caring attention Love focus ability compromised or corrupted when combined collectively?
The bigger the deal,the more fuss, the easier it is to miss the point?

Thinking you are knowing what you are getting into, and remembering what you thought you got out of- it .

Prop- Drop Cloth - Contract

                       
  Premonitions of  a  probable paradigm of the procrastinating Phoenix performance  perhaps ?
                 

                The Holy, The whole is linked with this notion of encompassing,coverage,protection.
                                       



It is nice to have a finite limit or boundary on event experience.
In the," which came first?"  --"the chicken, or the egg?" of cause and effect.
Who made Me a Maker? What makes Me make Things?
Appreciator of things Others make and do, the Work involved, the Sacrifice and Skill.
I respect building and creating, the Arts and magical power of Human Hand crafting.
I am a compulsive creator and keep out of the way of the process and projects of Others.

I am not into Spiritually Meddling, or Managing or Monitoring or Modeling Others.
People are not a Material that I manipulate in the name of Art or Religion.
My Neo- Pagan Practice is full of skeptical inquiry, A healthy lack of Trust in the illegible fine print,
Unnecessary commitment, hidden cost, psychic tax, paranormal burden.
It is  Action!
It is now!
It is passing.....

 Paganism as Promise, as pleasure, as play!

left behind right ahead

belonging and place
feeling you are part

I suppose that much of My Public Pagan awakening  at the end of the eighties was a symbiotic circumstance
Artists Studio Tours were developed by Local  Real Estate.
A strange and intimate annual open house, weird exhibition  opportunity.
As a young struggling artist , it wasn't cleaned up for the crowd,in plain view,
all my works and doings.
Fine ART
less than fine art
commercial jobs
and the never before seen Perrin's personal Pagan Art and Idolatry.

My case is not one of coming out of the broom closet, but allowing the community at large a look at what I do, My practice ,My work as it is, or was.
.

" How much are you paying for your space?"

My Old Space is gone,      The Building tore down.   No more.

I moved on before that

But I was there then

when she said she was going to use an interview for a Book.
