With this moonday being a waning moon in Aquarius, it feels light and airy and free. This can be an imaginative, outgoing time when it's easy to connect with people, but it also lacks a deeper emotional quality. And that's just fine -- I see it as a little rest from the seriousness of it all. With the moon in the process of waning, the time has come and gone for celebrating our accomplishments. We can go easy on ourselves now, let go of stuff (on all levels), and clear spaces (on all levels) to make room for what comes next.
Aquarius rules the lower leg -- standing still for long periods of time goes against the very nature of this day when you think about it. It's feet up tonight!
Project-wise, I hope to sew on some things I've already taken the first steps on, being inspired as I go and without trying too hard. For instance, the mending pile -- another pair of jeans soon-to-be capris or maybe even bermuda shorts? Does anyone even say bermuda shorts anymore?
the red box holds my mom's vintage threads
your split heart glows against that black background. yes, bermuda shorts. i still say it.
ReplyDeleteDeanna, that's one easy thing about a black background, you can use any color and it looks pretty good.
ReplyDeleteOh good about bermudas -- they could've gone the way of petal-pushers!
The colors you have chosen for your split heart go together really well :)
ReplyDeleteHow special to have thread that is your mom's.
And yes, people still say Bermuda shorts. I hear it on a regular basis.
Regarding the mooday...I need a rest from all the seriousness! :)

well, now that i've got that song in my head, i like it even more! thinking about the possibility of you stitching the two halves got me thinking about some papiermache hearts my sister made (http://reneedemontaigne.blogspot.com look at her posts on Nov 27-30th if you like). beautiful boxes of thread. going to go put my feet up now!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marie -- seem to have a green thing going -- craving green food and green cloth! I love my mom's threads, they must be pretty old because they have funky labels, and I know she likes me using them, from out there in the great beyond.
ReplyDeleteCindy -- oh, wow, your sister's hearts are so cool, I love the gold one with the red stitching/binding! And, they're real hearts, well, not real, you know what I mean. Thanks for telling me about them. They make me think about longish stitching now.
ReplyDeleteFeet up!
