Update about blog

The joy of waking to this view each morning is just so wonderful. Even if the camera sees all the distortions from the window screen, I easily ignore them. Many of these green trees stand near or by the Animas River which flows through the town.

Dealing with reality through myths

 Myths. The stories we've been told, mainly listened to as children.

Or around a campfire perhaps.

But the myth-teller, Dr. Martin Shaw has another one which is told with multiple media methods (ha ha, don't you like that MMMM!) HERE is the myth of Valemon the Bear, and the wild third daughter.

Wild Quest

A most enjoyable women and girl's class...a series of eight.  Two great women teaching about the aspects of goddesses, then and now.  Last week we made little felted dolls.  The meanings of each person's doll is entirely theirs.  The stories that led to our making the dolls had to do with Eastern European myths about Baba Yaga and Vasilisa, and tuning in to our intuition which can help us throughout life's twists and turns

Meg Kelly taught us felting materials and techniques, and I leave the pictures to tell the thousand words.















Many thanks to Byron Ballard and Annelinde Metzner  and the adult ed programs of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Swannanoa Valley, here in Black Mountain, NC.
