Underwater World

11x15 collage on paper

Underwater World
Feeling a little under-water at work lately with some of the shenanigans that have recently come into play.

Though these Manta Rays are a little brighter orange and more round than Nature's, their swift and silent movement through the ocean and their ability to sense electrical currents in those sea creatures around them (many of them lurking just below the ocean floor), are just as real.

The stacked charcoal and the fossilized fish outlined on the ocean floor represents sly tactics, office politics, and outdated ways of thinking and working.

The little dingy with a single paddle represents my gratitude for lifelines outside the office, and opportunities to get over the daily ripples in the water's surface.

The Number Three

The number Three

The number three was the subject of a rerun episode of Ancient Aliens that I watched on TV this afternoon, and just happens to be my Life Path number in numerology.   Got me thinking about the number 3 today.  


Today's collage features a kaleidoscope of reds and yellows, along with a few other symbols:   
A classic Eames chair representing design and aesthetics, 
The number 3 representing my lifepath and career choices, 
Yellow representing the color of the third chakra (solar plexus chakra), 
A sea creature representing the stinging comments or reactions I sometimes receive from others around me,  
and A butterfly representing change and growth. 


Message from Ask And It Will Happen deck by Joanne Gregory:  
Don't Be A Victim.  
"Recognize when you are in victim mode and know you can be free of it. Make the choice to stop hurting. Choose to believe that you are doing better, and that good things are coming to you.  What you believe to be true will be."
