Guardians of the Path

Posted on by Spyder Webb

Guardians of the Path FAA.jpgWell who wouldn’t want these guys guarding their path? They just don’t get any happier and exuberant than this!

Anyone coming down this driveway is going to get blessed whether they know it or not. And going out, all those little orbs and bursts and electromagnetic lines of force are going to shower you with their dancing and bouncing and happy happy joy joy kinda energy!

Sure, it’s winter and the sap in the trees isn’t flowing, but the energy holding everything together is as alive and vibrant as ever. It would all just go poof! if it stopped, you know. Which it can’t.

You want some of these guys guarding your own path? Guess what. You’re surrounded.

Gotcha.

Winter Afternoon Sky

Posted on by Spyder Webb

WInter Afternoon Sky FAA SmallYes, this started as a photograph, and I’ve enhanced the image beyond what you normally see with the naked eye. Kind of like what you do with a telescope, or infrared film, or night vision equipment.

Except this is none of those things.

I’ve enhanced this image to reveal what is energetically there, or put another way, emotionally or spiritually. Our eyes can so easily overlook the deep reality beyond what they’re evolved so well to do, which is to give us information necessary for physical survival.

This is what art has done from time immemorial. It has given us a window to see through to what lies beyond that which is merely essential, merely necessary. Yes, you can live on bread and water, you can live without friendship, or without passion. At least your body can survive.

No matter how beautiful the world is to our physical senses, we can always go deeper. And then deeper still. As awesome as the physical world is, and it truly is, there is more. So much more.

Sunset on the Farm

Sunset on the Farm FAA Small

The road and the farmhouse almost merge with the natural landscape. But the human homes are no less part of nature than the birds’ nests, the foxes’ dens, the soft hiding places of the deer and the bear that share our land. It’s a great reminder of living in harmony with nature, of which we are of course a part no less than our cousin earthlings of different species.

And then there’s that magnificent sky, with its clouds both protecting us and reminding us of how vast it is out there beyond our few acres of homes. I wonder if those clouds have some sort of transient group consciousness as they hover and travel above us and below the higher levels of our atmosphere?

Sometimes it’s just enough that they’re there, moving, breathing, delighting us.

Hot Pink Hiding (Xtreme Floral Twenty One)

Xtreme Floral 21 FAA Small

You know when you’re listening to some music and there’s that one riff or unexpected accent that just kicks the whole thing up another level? Or the little bit of spice in the recipe that takes the meal from good to scrumptious?

Maybe Hot Pink isn’t actually hiding. Maybe it’s more likely that she’s just quietly confident in her role as the catalyst that brings everything together. She knows she doesn’t have to scream and shout and be the center of attention to be a significant part of the mix.

The image works fine without her. But she snuck into the picture, and it works better with her. And she knows that.

Oddball. Weirdo. Not from around here. Doesn’t fit in.

Thank goodness.

Say Ahhhh (Xtreme Floral Twenty)

Posted on by Spyder Webb

Xtreme Floral 20 FAAWhen you say ahhhh you are expressing, in the most primal way, gratitude.

Rejoicing.

I have no idea what the consciousness of flowers might be like, but their very existence shouts I am alive, I am here, I am part of the magnificent tapestry of life, from its most complex evolved form, to the simplest subatomic particle/wave, and my existence will not be denied!

A plant’s consciousness is probably not very accessible to most of us, but just looking at how they grow and move and reach out exuberantly, with brilliant color and subtle shades and tints, is a powerful reminder of the deep impulse of life itself to grow, to expand, to fill the universe with the beauty of being.

Just being.

Just be. It’s enough. And it’s beautiful.

Powerful in Pink (Xtreme Floral Nineteen)

She’s not the brightest or strongest color in the scene, but she completely dominates with her presence. She even has a hint of shyness, a winsome coyness, as she emerges from the shadows.

And yet, even as she commands, everything’s in perfect balance. She lets the others shine, confidently using her power not to diminish, but rather to enhance the others.

Maybe she’s trying to show us what music looks like.

Really? You can listen with your eyes?

Yellow Unfolding (Xtreme Floral Eighteen)

Xtreme Floral 18 FAA Small

It’s almost liquid, like paint dropped into water, slowly flowing and finding its paths through the energy fields in the water. This is not a photograph of flowers, of objective material things, but a moment unfolding in time, a process caught in the act of becoming, frozen yet dynamic, unfolding before our very eyes as we gaze at what our intellect tells us is a still image.

Silly intellect.
