March Musings

Welcome Spring!!!!   Here in the Great Midwest the winter was really mild again, thankfully.   I feel like a flower that is nodding its head toward the sun.  I have been making jewelry all winter.  It has definitely been an amazing experience.  I have decided to make studies of subjects in my jewelry.  I will be using creativity and art to understand deeper life lessons.  At this time I am studying two different subjects.

I am studying first the  Alchemy of change and growth,  There are four colors related to  the process, they are:  Black (Nigredo),  White (Albedo), Yellow (Citrinitas) and Red  (Rubido).  I am starting at the beginning/ending  which is called Nigredo.

Nigredo as I understand it at this time  is  related to putrescence, rotting and burning.  The blackness before the dawning,  The ending before the birth.  Even with birth we are ending being pregnant and beginning being a parent....as with every ending there is a beginning.  Rotting things are great fertilizer to prepare the ground for the seed.  I am exploring this with lots of my jewelry, can you guess which pieces?  What images or feeling does nigredo conjure for you?

The second exploration is of healing herbs and herbalists.  As many of you know I am an herbalist and I LOVE plants.  I will be doing a series of healing herbs and plants and the herbalists who love them in metal, however  I'm still trying to figure out how to bring this to life any input would be welcome.  So that's what is going on with Mamma Moon this lovely springtime....what is up with you?
