This energy art image was inspired by a video that my brother sent to me awhile back that shows an undeniable orb in it. He has a night vision camera out in his woods to catch cool videos of the deer, and he's got two different videos with orbs in them.
In the one with the deer, notice how the deer actually seems to sense or even see the orb as it zooms by. It's fast (top center) so you have to look quickly. Anyway, I think I'm going to do a series of energy art orb interpretations, the one above is my first.
Oh yeah, Happy New Year!! It's the big one, 2012! What's going to happen this year, I wonder? I don't know, hopefully nothing too catastrophic environmentally. I feel that this could be a year for an expansion in consciousness for lots of people. Embracing a more connected and spiritual attitude by releasing some negative and self-centered ways of thinking would be an awesome way to spend 2012!
I was watching tv yesterday, (on my new big screen tv that my awesome daughter Andi and her boyfriend Dustin bought us for Christmas...what the?!!! seriously?!!!!! Crazy girl!!) Anyway, I can't remember what channel it was, but all day long the movie 2012 was playing, over and over again.
I don't know if you've seen that movie, but it's like an epic fear mongering kind of movie. It's a cool movie, don't get me wrong, especially impressive on a big screen tv, but really? Day one of 2012 the studio execs said "Oh let's start the year off with some hardcore brainwashing of DREAD".
It's all possible I suppose, if you want to believe in the worst outcome possible. It's a fact that the sun is in an active period of solar flares and unrest, peaking in 2013, and the magnetic storms from these flares seem to trigger crazy weather and earthquakes. It's also a fact, that on December 21, 2012, the planets will be in a rare alignment that could affect the the magnetism of the north and south poles, triggering a strong gravitational pull that could affect the continental plates.
I'm not skeered!!!! I do plan on having some supplies on hand, just in case. So will everyone else, though, and with the widespread anticipation of this date, we could actually trigger our own disasters without anything even happening!! It's a crazy time to be alive!! Would you believe that December 21, 2012 is the 28th anniversary of when I was raped and attacked? How weird is that.....
Anyway, blah blah blah...... I've been thinking really hard about my artwork and how I want to spread some love, light, and healing energy into the world through the images. I see myself as a Lightworker in this aspect, and I also see all the people who buy my artwork as Lightworkers. As a matter of fact, I see everyone as Lightworkers.....we all play our part in spreading our intentions and energy into the world, good or bad. Hopefully, we can reach the point where we focus on the good.
I was reading about Lightworkers, and came across this website. I know I'm not really supposed to copy and paste a bunch of paragraphs from someone else's words, but this is just so right on, I had to do it....
Lightworkers are souls who carry the strong inner desire to spread Light – knowledge, freedom and self-love – on earth. They sense this as their mission. They are often attracted to spirituality and to therapeutic work of some kind.
Psychological characteristics of lightworkers:
- | From early on in their life, they feel they are different. More often than not they feel isolated from others, lonely and misunderstood. They will often become individualists who will have to find their own unique ways in life. |
- | They have trouble feeling at home within traditional jobs and/or organization structures. Lightworkers are naturally anti-authoritarian which means that they naturally resist decisions or values based solely on power or hierarchy. This anti-authoritarian trait is present even if they seem timid and shy. It is connected to the very essence of their mission here on earth. |
- | Lightworkers feel drawn to helping people as a therapist or as a teacher. They may be psychologists, healers, teachers, nurses, etc. Even if their profession is not about helping people in a direct manner, the intent to contribute to the higher good of humanity is clearly present. |
- | Their vision of life is colored by a spiritual sense of how all things are related together. They consciously or subconsciously carry memories within them of non-earthly spheres of light. They may occasionally feel homesick for these spheres and feel like a stranger on earth. |
- | They deeply honor and respect life which often manifests as a fondness for animals and a concern for the environment. The destruction of parts of the animal and vegetable kingdoms on earth by human doing invokes deep feelings of loss and grief in them. |
- | They are kind-hearted, sensitive and empathic. They may have trouble dealing with aggressive behavior and they generally experience difficulties in standing up for themselves. They can be dreamy, naive or highly idealistic, as well as insufficiently grounded, i.e. down-to-earth. Because they easily pick up negative feelings and moods of people around them, it is important for them to spend time alone on a regular basis. This enables them to distinguish between their own feelings and those of others. They need solitary time to touch base with themselves and with mother earth. |
- | They have lived many lives on earth in which they were deeply involved with spirituality and/or religion. They were present in overwhelming numbers in the old religious orders of your past as monks, nuns, hermits, psychics, witches, shamans, priests, priestesses, etc. They were the ones providing a bridge between the visible and the invisible, between the daily context of earth life and the mysterious realms of the afterlife, realms of God and the spirits of good and evil. For fulfilling this role, they were often rejected and persecuted. Many of you were sentenced to the stake for the gifts you possessed. The traumas of persecution left deep traces within your soul’s memory. This may presently manifest as a fear of being fully grounded, i.e. a fear to be really present, because you remember being brutally attacked for who you were. |
This is me!!! And it's quite possibly many or even most of the people I've come to know in the past year through this blog, facebook and Etsy! How cool is that?!!! I have big plans, big plans for my energy art this year. Andi also got me one of those tablet things with a pen so I can actually draw within my images without using the clumsy old mouse.
I swear, when I opened that package on Christmas and saw what it was, I got the strongest surge of goosebumps ever! I couldn't even talk for about 10 minutes because of the lump in my throat (don't look at me, I'm going to cry!). I got a brief little vision of what I would accomplish this year, and the gratitude and excitement was overwhelming. I'm going to make a difference! This is what I'm supposed to be doing! And with this pen, I can get detailed so that huge images on say, canvas, will look awesome. I can also embed the reiki symbol choku-rei into my artwork to amp up the energy. I can hide words that give off good vibes in the designs. Endless possibilities for Lightwork. Thank you, Andi. I sure do love you!!!
Well I hope everyone has the best year ever!
With Love and Light,
Laurie
