The Lovers Eclipse Mer-Fairy Support

Dear Mer-Moon Muser,

I sit on my porch
soak up the sun
eclipsed (partially) by the moon.

I feel so tiny
that it's easy to become one
with the ALL.

I surround myself with Love
open my pores
feel.

Then share this healing
with Mama Earth, her water, water spirits,
life blood.

I feel in that moment of darkness,
inner womb-moon-ness,
the birds quieten, my crystal hums
and time stops

We are love.

This week's mermaid poem & watercolor depicts the Lovers card from my upcoming Siren Song Tarot, a 22 card circular Major Arcana deck.

Sparkly Mer-Blessings!

Isle of Mist Seer Mer-Faerie Support

Dear Mer-Moon Muser,

Moon-Child
There is no time
but NOW
For Love is
the WAY.

This week's mermaid watercolor and poem was just completed and it's from my upcoming 22-card circular Siren Song Tarot deck. Her name is "Isle of Mist Seer" and she will represent The Hanged One in my new Major Arcana deck. She also represents the ancient British Goddess, Sulis of the healing waters. Her shrine can be found in Bath offering a portal to otherworlds and the fae; a holy place filled with healing, magic & mystery.

Sparkly Mer-Blessings!

Mermaid Altar

Waters of the Womb Awaken: Fey-Mermaid Support

All is connected. That's why, for now I am simply going to share with you my newest Mermaid Paintings and yes, you will be the first to see these magickal creatures both here and in my museletter! They have my heart. They will also be part of a new oracle deck I'm working on (name as yet un-decided as I'm in the flow - but your suggestions always welcome!).

I'm also very excited to try out some Daniel Smith watercolors that are magickally color shifting, sheening, granulating and made from ground up minerals with names such as: Undersea Green, Imperial Violet, Lunar Blue, Serpentine, Rose of Ultramarine and Sodalite.

It's Pisces Season right now so it's time to dive deep, be enchanted and be courageous. My mermaids are no flimsy, weak maidens; they have teeth and claws and they bite! I like learning about Fey Mermaid Warriors such as the mythological Circe who lived as a witch and a weaver in a little stone cottage by the sea where she concocted magical herbal potions to ensnare sailors shipwrecked near her shores, turning the nastiest ones into swine.

Mer-Witch Magik

I found a fishing float (witches ball) the other day and have it on my altar to collect and disperse any unwanted energies around me.

I collected some morning dew at the last New Moon in Pisces - mer-fairie sustenance!

Awkward Beauty

Dear Moon Muser,

Each drawing/painting in my current series is showing, by example, how to change, transform, reclaim oneself.

How?

I draw with my non-dominant (left) hand - awkward, slow, weird.

I handicap challenge myself intentionally to create something different from anything I've created before...to be someone different...to know a different side of myself.

Not easy, but rewarding. The drawings show awkward beauty, what it's like to be autistic, neurodivergent, or different, or adopted, or weird, or to not fit in. This is beauty to me.

Sparkly Blessings!
