Apocalypse: Are you ready to change your life to heal.

Yesterday, we went on an art walk in an ancient village. The theme was apocalypse, and the artists all interpreted this as revelation of new birth and big life changes, rather than the end of the world. As one artist said, it is the end of our world and beginning of a radical new situation in our new world . Apocalypse comes from the Greek word Apokalipsi which meant unveiling or reveal. Mireille Lienard and Philippe Fraise, the Belgian curators, choose pieces of art that showed visions from the inner world unveiled and revealed as new exciting healing events. The 7 pieces of art were in boxes in hidden ancient springs of this ancient Greek mountain village. Ancient springs in Greece were always the site of goddess or nymph temples. To see the art pieces, you followed a path of arrows painted on the stone steps. It felt like being a child following a treasure hunt. Each piece of art was a revelation of inner secrets for life change and healing. There were angels, keys to secrets, head guilded with gold, images of secret pain transformed in pillows. We were lucky enough to have several guides for this treasure hunt. We had 2 cats, a dog and a Zohi, a little girl, the daughter of the curators. She ran, danced, leaped around the circular path that went in and out of dark springs. In ancient times the springs were sacred, the water cleansed and goddesses played revealed their nakedness and healed. Now in each spring Zohi danced, told stories, my wife danced with her, up and down the ancient stairs, into dark hidden springs holding secrets of nymphs and revealing beauty beyond measure. They were the goddeses, the new life revealed was only this. When I work with people for healing, I ask them, “ What do you want to heal, are you ready to change your life to do that healing?” Thank you Mireille and Philippe for this gift of spirit healing and beauty. Art heals yourself, others, community and the earth.
