11 :: 90 {Solstice to Equinox}

I purposely started this 365 project without a clear theme. Exploring my inner and outer world in a "theme-less" way, just noticing what is "up" in my life every day.

And yet, as I move further into the second week, a theme is starting to show itself. Maybe a sub-theme, a rich and interesting sub-theme. As I look about for what I want to share, the natural world keeps sending me a message.

The dragon.

The soft, ethereal ocean.

The ivy.

And now, the crows.

Black as night. Like the darkness that comes before light. Harbingers of change.

Nests high in the treetops. A view of all below. Perspective, big picture thinkers.

Resilient and communal (like the ivy). Able to thrive, not just survive. Aloft. Smart-as-can-be. Magical.

So much to learn from the crows!!

As this year ends and a new one begins, I am thankful for the message of of magic, community, resilience, thriving, and high perspective thinking.
