Dreaming Big on the Full Snow Moon

This month Jamie challenged us to Dream Big! And when I dream big, it is always about Space.

When I first thought about doing something about these Big Dreams I was having, I dismissed it, poo-pooed my desires, felt who was I to be able to contribute? But I overruled those thoughts and did take action. These dreams require many building blocks and there is an incredibly long road ahead. Will I be able to contribute to this dream? In small ways, I already am. I walk through opening doors, leap on opportunities, fret when there are none but keep plugging away. Now I think I will exercise with this on my mind, then revisit my mind maps and agenda to decide on those next little steps that I will take for this month.

It was very difficult to even decide to share these "soul reflections" of mine as they are so different from what I have seen in any submissions. But (big intake of breath) - here they are.

Full Wolf Moon Dreaming

Just after midnight, and the Wolf Moon is full. Finally, we have a clear night and the Moon is shining brightly for me to see, and for us to chat. This always makes me happy.

I am eagerly participarting again (3rd time!) in Jamie Ridler's Full Moon Dreamboards. This is the Full Wolf Moon. Jamie says: "January’s full moon has this name because wolves are often heard howling at this time as they seek for food. What are you seeking? What is your heart yearning for?"

Someone appears to have spiked the water with bubble juice and all my desires appear inside those howled  bubbles. Images seem to come more into my mind to draw rather than jump out of pages of magazines at me to collage. (No doubt I am reading the wrong kind of magazines. Forbes may not be the best choice for this activity!) For this one I tried using pastels instead of watercolour pencils like the last two. I am learning as I go, and I am learning a lot. Since I am also participating in the Creative Every Day 2010 Challenge, I thought I would do a zentangle/Zen Doodle version in my daily drawing book:


I hope the Full Wolf Moon brings you everything your heart is yearning for, and what you are seeking!

Have a great month!!!
