the Magic.  The magic that we can participate in…different than the Magic that is Beyond us

7 black and white beads…in Cloth world,  Thread Beads from Jude Hill's teachings,  and then,    the african red bead, the Blood bead.   I need to use two flosses to get the color close

then the separating of the thread ends,  stripping them with a small sharp needle.  It 's going to take some time.  

But close to finished.  Two Cloths in one month.  

August exacts much from Us.   I have met Her this year, August,  i have ripened.

    Given the backdrop of responsibilities in August, it is amazing that two cloths emerged. On the other hand, maybe the cumulative effect of months of needing to give and do, every day, never knowing the extent of what you might need to do or where you might need to be, opened something deep within you that culminated this month with such a strong cloth focus and that focus became what held August and you together. It also held all of us together by showing us that even with so much to your days, you still used your eyes to notice what was around you and you honored yourself by participating in your soul’s joy – your cloth making.

    i think you are EXACTLY right…the cumulative effect…never
    knowing…
    the culmination
    August, the culmination
    and yes. the focus, life sustaining, the just Goingness
    NEEDED. Because it might be lost,
    There is a sense that this summer has been lost
    and then too, to lose August,
    i could NOT lose August
    There was an EVENT just now for the last long time of Doe Business. Surprising but they were intent on it…i watched and then took some pics
    and i have two bites on my right thigh that are extremely itching and swelling because of scratching and these too are August.
    To lose August would be to lose my life. Soon, September will come and open into the Cold Time. The HEAT of this month i need to live. and yes. Yes. i focused. to save mySelf.
    yes. Love, Love to you, Marti

    The grass, the thread beads, the kantha all make it look as if she is leaving. She looks like she is just passing through this space in the grasses and moving on. This is amazing Grace!

    Organisms organically expressed–Your self and all of them harvested here, shared and shown so we can be with them and you, though we are far away and virtual. What beautiful creatures and characters circulate here, grow and come to manifest! What friendship here!!!
