Intuition
Blog #62
Part 3: With pencil guidelines - both vertical and horizontal - in place, the design elements of a pysanka take center stage, as presented in this “start to finish” slideshow.
“Beloved Spirit, let soul-infused intuition guide all my thoughts, words and deeds.”
Symbolism
Intuition, Spirit’s all-knowing omniscience latent within the soul, is cultivated in the calm, still silence of meditation (symbolized by Lace); and conscious receptivity (symbolized by triangular nets) makes it known. Intuition guides a person to act in an unerring way, a guidance without sensory proof or evidence. The prayer for the awakening of intuition is written in the spring-blooming pussy willow and the flight-worthy butterfly (stylized wings), as both symbolize spiritual growth, change and a new beginning. Intuition’s purity is symbolized by white; the prayer’s fulfillment by red; and introspection, a necessity for developing intuition, by black.
May soul-infused intuition guide all your thoughts, words and deeds.
Prayer for world Peace
Divine Spirit,
Let Thy light and love manifest as peace in the hearts of all world leaders.
Let Thy light and love manifest as peace in the hearts of all people in all nations.
Let the joy of Divine love fill this world with peace and understanding.
Amen
Ukrainian folklore characterizes pysanky as a symbolic, talismanic writing that invokes a higher Universal Power for help, while believing with faithful certainty that It will. The contemporary version of this characterization is a paper-and-pen journaling practice called prayer writing. Both develop a personal relationship with God.
