D.C. #125: Numen, Jan. 18-19

imbued by numen of winter

depth and stillness call to her

sitting tall

assisting energy to flow from her earth into her heavens
 

hibernating bear
a conduit of unending chi
mate to her reverie

~

thinking about guardian spirits
divine presence
and
of magical powers residing in places
has inspired a landscape:

lands are born on paper

considering the spirit of a place

DC #125: numen

numen:

the spirit or divine power presiding over a thing or place

some call it a guardian spirit

*

I have always enjoyed the spirit of rocks

(Montana has such beautiful rocks, like the pastel ones above)

also known as:

divine presence
referring to the idea of magical power residing in an object or place

 portraying

or hinting at spirit in art

is one of my favorite things to do:

 

consider the spirit of a birthday cake:

when we pause to feel, sense, mingle with the numen in life
whether in a forest, beach, home, flower or stone
it is my sense that we quiet, 

deepen our stance, listen, feel
become present,
our life force expands
the spirit of life is more tangible,
intimacy is born
