Up until this morning I had little idea of what January’s MOTM would be. Then I woke up from a short but powerful dream. When I finished analyzing it I realized that I need to create more harmony and balance in my life.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
December 2009 – Perspective
Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. Regardless of how many times we beat our heads up against the wall, it’s still going to hurt. So here’s my advice: STOP IT!
November 2009 – Grateful
Before and during my recent travels to and from South Carolina, I found myself using the “H” (hate) word a lot.
October 2009 – Ray Dance
Late one afternoon, about 9 years ago my husband and I drove to Mary’s Peak (Oregon) even though the road to the top was still closed due to snow.
September 2009 – Vibrations
Some of you may be old enough to know the Beach Boys song, “Good Vibrations”. That’s what we’re striving for this month…good vibrations. We are all energy…you, me, the computer keyboard I’m typing on right now, the chair I’m sitting, and so on. Energy has a vibration, a frequency.
August 2009 – Up Close & Personal
This is one of those mandalas where the look of it changes as you rotate it around. Each turn gives you a new perspective. Last month we were to work on being still, this month its about going inward, from every possible perspective, to take a good look at ourselves.
July 2009 – Be Still
Okay how many of you have trouble being still? Anyone? Anyone? I’ll have you know my hand went up first! Let me clarify a bit…I am quite capable of physically being still, it’s being still mentally that’s the challenge.
June 2009 – Persistence
Last month’s MOTM was about finding balance and being gentle on ourselves. Regardless of setbacks, keep moving forward. Apparently, this month we expand on this them to add persistence to the mix.
May 2009 – Delicate Balance
This was a two day process. Yesterday while meditating I saw the 3-pointed celtic-like image. The rest came today while sketching out the entire mandala.
April 2009 – Pretty, Please
The words, “Pretty, Please” came to mind while I was doing something else and I happened to ask myself, ‘what is the word or phrase for this mandala?’
