From the Archives: Night Bat

Here's a sketch combining Bat as a totem and a strange super hero.  Not quite "bat" man.  He is also wearing an extended version of the rune, Othala.  This could very easily be The Fool from the Tarot. Here we have a figure dressed in the colors of Malkuth fluttering towards the symbol for Yesod.  At the time I drew this, the Kabbalah was only a word.  I am continually amused and amazed at the magickal concepts that came through me in these early drawings.  I wonder what I will see when I look back at the work I am producing now?

Weekly Mandala: Growth

A fertile conjunction between Netzach and Malkuth.

Weekly Mandala: Kaleidoscope

Delicate strands of ether permeate and illuminate the structures of change.  Manifestation seeks a home.

Weekly Mandala: Return to Malkuth

A return to the tenth level, within the Qabbalah, the tenth sephirot.   Malkuth (Kingdom) is the inferior mother to the third sephirot Binah (Understanding), the superior mother.  Malkuth is associated with a set of four colors: Olive, Black, Russett, and Citrine.  It is the level of earth, the kingdom of manifestation.

Weekly Mandala: Malkuth Engine

Time slips in the pulsing.
Days blur into weeks,
mercury beading up and bouncing away.
Each pulse, another moment,
another year of my life bleeding like watercolors.
The Earth changes and changes and changes,
and how could I not join in,
how could I not?
I am lost,
and I am found,
but this isn't any kind of grace.
It's just dancing.
Through the doors,
through the many many doors,
shifting my weight and bending my arms,
turning with the flow and raising myself up.
I'm just dancing.

Weekly Mandala: A View from Malkuth

Here we are standing in the kingdom, Malkuth, looking up into the Tree of Life.  Malkuth is the sephiroth within the Qabalah system associated with the realm of earthly matter.  It is the world of our day to day life, the physical realm, Earth.

Many of the mandalas I've worked on always seem to have the intimation of a circle of entities or people around the outer edges.  The same holds true with this one.  I can see what looks like a group of bearded men.  Some are wearing large turbans, others seem to be in dark robes of some sort wearing crowns or headpieces.  They seem to be singing or chanting.  They each hold a cup or a chalice.

The men emerged as an image and were present through most of the process of making this mandala.  At one point I tried to eliminate them as I like to keep the mandalas mostly abstract, letting the viewer's eyes determine what is seen.  I'm kind of glad they're still in there...or maybe they aren't really there at all and they're just what I'm seeing and bringing to the piece.  :-)

Diamonds of Truth - Malkuth

This part of a series of three images.

Each is the same composition but the

colour of each is dramatically different.

This one I feel is the most successful.
