the lion has swallowed the bull.
the leo always tries to eat the taurus
im learning from the lion.
because at heart i am the bull.

19 may

today it was quite sunny (for about 4 minutes)
and i thought the horse looked brilliant
so im sharing him again....
he even sort of sticks out from the rest of the bark.
in person he almost looks soft.

18 may

stepping back

16 may

carousel trojan horse

15 may

queen elizabeth I in a ghost of a gown...
with a young fire sprite by her side..



my outline of the fire sprite boy is awful i know..
hes much better seen without it
but this helps at least place him.

here is a picture from last week when it was a bit more cloudy...



on second thought this could be titania & puck.
on third thought the little fire sprite appears to have a twin..
or a shadow...like peter pan.

when i was little i had a tiny blue budgie parakeet.
i loved him very much.
one night i had a dream that i got inside his cage
and he put his wing around me and thanked me for all of my care.
and then. swear to god. he flew off over a rainbow!
when i woke up he was dead... but he had said goodbye.

i dropped a little stone in a nest shaped hole in the tree
and then wanting to see what it looked like
i poked my camera in the hole and took a shot.
the black thing is the tourmaline stone i dropped.
but next to it. lo and behold
a tiny blue budgie parakeet!

its my birthday today so we are headed to wales.
no magic tree for two days... but ill be back *^v^*

ps. i should also say i tried to take like 10 more pictures
of the budgie.. but it never resembled a bird ever again.

THE OWL & THE ORB










its like that owl is coming RIGHT for us.
he is really chasing the moth-orb.
do you see the mans eye and cheek on the left?
he even has eyelashes...

ooooh look at the picture on the top..
it has a spirit waving a finger at us...
just poking out from the right...
i guess we should let this owl get back to his hunting.

7 may

today i took some new lovely friends to the magic tree.
the magic tree brings people together.
*e* & *s* found this sunlight angel.

6 may

i see diana with her head down ... facing her shoulder...
*with white wings*

ok my cousin says she doesnt see what i see..
so.. here just in case:


the weird thing is..
i took a picture in this exact spot a few days ago
and all i could see was the red dragon.
its strange how the hues change...
its like.. different elementals reveal at different times.

ok my cousin doesnt see it still!
is she messing with me?


i also found a phoenix resting against the back of her head.


what did you find?

5 may

today i brought another gift to the magic tree.
some labradorite.. i tucked it away in another corner
and stayed under the magic tree for nearly an hour
when suddenly i realized that the little doors in the magic tree
actually go all the way through..
you can only really see this if you are lying down by the tree.
which i have never actually done until today...

also..
ive never mentioned this...
but the magic tree has iron rods inside of it.
i think the park conservationists must have put them there
to stop people from getting inside..
they iron rods are very old and rusted and very bent..
when looking into the elf doors i saw that the iron rods
have made a very special runic symbol.

GEBO


*taken from facade.com*
the rune gebo means gift, and like any gifts,
the rune may be understood on many levels.
gifts are generally positive things,
for both the giver and the recipient.
in many cultures however, gifts and favors carry with them
an obligation to respond in kind.
it is for this reason that gifts, and hence the rune gebo,
are frequently symbolic of friendships, marriages, alliances,
mergers, and other bonds between people or organizations.
gebo is a strong rune
and the unions represented are strong as well.
moreover, gebo is not reversible,
as true friendships are not easily undone.

*the magic tree*

today as we were approaching the magic tree
we saw our lovely neighbor standing by it.
we sometimes go on walks together
and our dogs are best friends...
so molly and meg headed straight for the magic tree
and paid particular interest to the escape route door.

i decided to follow them and lean in to take a look.
can you believe the little elf holding a crystal!?
he is lying on his side having a nap.
i almost jumped back when i saw him.
look at his little hand!
you could actually see fingers... but my camera is rot!
absolutely unbelievable.
here is another..




we passed the magic tree again on a late night dog walk.
i couldnt resist peeking in on the little guy.
hes safe and sound.
here is a pic with flash...



i just noticed the fairy angel singing lullabies on his right.
maybe you saw her all along... she looks sort of like a hand too.

2 may

i saw a red dragon today.
in a place ive looked many times before!
i took several pictures of him.
on only one.... his eye was open....
(a little white spot appeared where his eye should be)
here look....



i think i woke him.

1 may

today i saw ganesha the hindu deity.
he is the lord of beginnings...
the lord of obstacles carefully placed
or removed from our path as needed.
ganesha is the base... the root... the beginning.
he resides in the first chakra so his colour is red.
he is identified with the hindu mantra om.

i must remember to say hello to him first when i visit the tree..
but i must admit.. the barn owl generally gets the first greeting...


*thanks wikipedia *^v^*
