This is my latest drawing in a series based on astrological transits, in this case the recent trine from the Sun in Scorpio to Jupiter in Cancer, part of the ongoing Grand Water Trine that this week's New Moon and Mercury cazimi were part of.

The sigil in the Sun directs us to "Protect Hope."

#Art
A reddish gold king crab stands in an underwater temple between pillars of green marble and bronze, holding the Sun between his claws, standing on a carpet of coral. A sigil in the center of the Sun appears in a shimmer of many thin lines, its light coming down through the blue and aqua waters to illuminate the depths of the sea.

A highly detailed drawing in black ink on white paper of a ship's figurehead in the form of a mermaid, with glowing eyes. The ship is being tossed about in a storm, with lightning flashing through the sky and rough, high waves. On the viewer's left a sailor who has fallen overboard reaches his left hand up and fixes his gaze upon the figurehead with one visible, wild eye. On the viewer's right another sailor with a slouching hat and his eyes closed leans against the railing, possibly unconscious, with his right hand against the prow of the ship and his left hand reaching toward the figurehead. Beneath his hand is the name plaque for the ship, which is also the name of the spirit within the figurehead: "Klaboutermannikin."

This is my Puranam, now on the other side, but still with so much love and comfort to give.
A handsome Seal Point Siamese cat resting on a peach-coloured blanket stretches his left front paw out toward the viewer and sleepily gives loving blinks.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?
The cover of the Siouxsie & The Banshees album "Tinderbox," featuring a reddish-pink monochrome photo of a tornado approaching a small barn surrounded by open fields and a sky with dramatic clouds, all appearing between curtains on the silver screen.

My latest artwork in a series based on astrological transits, in this case the current Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius, re-entering Scorpio on Tuesday.

The sigil in the eye of the mask directs us to "Examine Truth," encouraging us to re-consider our beliefs.

#Art #Astrology #AstroSky
A heron flies over dark pools of water and fire forming a Tao symbol. An eye looks up from one of the pools, while white koi with black and orange marking swim in another. A pair of white Venetian masks with gold scrollwork look at the viewer from the left side of the image, with a sigil in the mask in the foreground directing us to "Examine Truth." Behind the heron a pale blue glimpse of clouded sky contains silvery traces of the prime number pattern formed in the wake of a swimming snake that has disappeared behind the masks. A wall of flame surges to the right.

Quote with your purple art. 💜
"Merging Heaven and Earth" 11" x 14" drawing in coloured marker: A figure in a dark blue veil, hijab, with sleeves and trousers of the same fabric. She sits beneath an arch in a wall with artwork that seems to combine a mural with an intertwining geometric mosaic in the pink, red, and black. The mural features a purple swan on the left and a white swan on the right, swimming in aquamarine waters. The woman is encircled by butterflies, as she holds a sphere of golden energy containing a heart wreathed by fiery orchids and a pair of green snakes whose helix forms a figure eight. The bricks upon which the woman sits each contain a symbol. Some of these are astrological, others are characters from multiple languages and symbolic systems. Behind the woman a pyramid is seen, with a shooting star coming down behind it.

This is the latest drawing in my ongoing series based on astrological transits, in this case the Grand Water Trine between Mercury/Mars in Scorpio, Jupiter in Cancer, and Saturn/Neptune in Pisces that coloured much of October. The sigil emerging from the horn directs us to "Channel Vitality."

#Art
A merfolk to the left blows a conch shell, projecting a sigil to "Channel Vitality" through the rippling water of the ocean depths. He has spiky aqua-coloured fins and gills, and an aqua tail that is only partly visible. A mer seer to the right gazes up toward the center left with white eyes. She is dressed in kelp, webbed hands upheld, with hair like anemone tentacles and pale aqua gills with a purple and aqua tail. A purple and pink octopus tentacle reaches down from the right to tap her on the shoulder.

One more piece of miniature art for #WorldJellyfishDay

This one is an #ACEO (2.5" x 3.75") containing a #Sigil for "Penetrating Perspective."
A coloured pencil drawing of a sigil on black paper coloured blue. The sigil appears in the form of a jellyfish striped in blue, violet, and orchid colours, with a splash of pale Deco blue across its surface. The jellyfish is swimming diagonally downward toward the viewer's left, with a few tentacles curling up over and behind it.

Apparently it is #WorldJellyfishDay so here's a little Man o' War #ACEO (2.5" x 3.5") to add to the party!
A colour pencil drawing of a Man o' War jellyfish floating on aqua-coloured seas. The wedge-shaped top of the creature floats above the water and is clear with pink and gold shimmers, while purple tentacles stretch out below the surface of the water.

This drawing is one in a series of drawings based on astrological transits, in this case the opposition of Venus in Virgo to Saturn in Pisces on October 11th, 2025.

The sigil in the dark of the Moon directs us to "Persist."

#Art #AstroSky #Astrology #Cemetery #Graveyard
Divinatory art: In a graveyard at night a monument in the form of a woman sleeping on her side is lit by the golden glow of a grave lantern and the waning gibbous Moon. Lush green trees, grasses, and leaves frame the graves and the mausoleum on the hillside behind her. The Moon's shadowed side contains a sigil for the directive to "Persist."

I create drawings in connection with astrological transits. This one is for the recent Venus/South Node conjunction. It's inspired by one of my favorite films, Hero, & one of my favorite actresses, Maggie Cheung. The sigil in the Moon is to "Leave heartbreak in the past."

#Art #AstroSky #Astrology
A woman in a red hanfu stands in a clearing full of red leaves opposite a hooded figure beneath a nearly full moon, as the wind blows her hair across our view. It stirs the leaves flowing before her, like droplets of blood, as she offers her life experiences to her destiny, releasing what she can no longer carry that she may go forward. There is a spiderweb in the tree over her head. The sigil in the waxing gibbous Moon directs us to "Leave Heartbreak in the Past." The hooded figure in its blood-red cloak holds a moonlight-silvered staff and silently receives the offering. The eyes of some small, hidden creature look out from the nearby tree, the wilderness bearing witness to this dance with fate.

Art: “Lunar Eclipse in Pisces 2025” 6” x 8” drawing in Micron pen and Berol Prismacolor pencils.

Today's eclipse formed a Grand Water Trine with Jupiter in Cancer and Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio, inviting us to face our fears as we swim in the waters of previously hidden feelings. #AstroSky #Art
A woman stands on a rock in the sea with her back to the viewer, facing a storm with clouds swirling around a Lunar eclipse and a pair of sigil illuminated in green. Sheets of silvery rain cascade in front of her, and a few stars peer down from above the clouds. Purple octopus tentacles emerge from beneath her blue dress, as her black hair blows in the wind, reflecting blood-red highlight from the eclipse overhead.

A colour drawing of a scene through the eyes of someone holding their partner's hand while seated on a porch watching the sunset. The couple are wearing long-sleeved green shirts and blue jeans. An antique radio sits on a table with a pale blue linoleum top and silvertone edging. On the table in front of the radio sits a steaming aqua pottery cup of tea and a crow with a cherry in his mouth. Green gingerbread molding casts a shadow on the lighter green wall. In the yard is a pond with a mated pair of wood ducks nestled together, also watching the sunset. A reddish crawdad sits at the edge of the pond, his claws raised toward the setting sun that peeks over purple mountains behind fruit trees heavy with plums and cherries on the other side of the pond.

A recent sunset by the lake on Camano Island, Washington state, in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.

The sky at sunset glows in soft pink and gold against baby blue, glimmering between the evergreens surrounding a dark lake. A small white house with a black roof nestles within the deepening shadows of the trees on this quiet evening in the Pacific Northwest.

Still recovering from the one-two punch of Thursday's Lunar Eclipse followed by Friday's Mercury station retrograde? I'll admit I'm still a bit off-kilter myself - it's been a strange few days, with a lot of insomnia for me.

I used to walk by this tree daily. I called it "The Hand of the Green Man." It was cut down by developers, and I've been broken-hearted over it ever since.

That SOB in the White House wants to destroy 280 million acres of our forests, for timber profits. My heartbreak is now RAGE.

Another 4" x 6" card art created to honor my Patreon patron Linda's Solar Return this week.

#Astrology #AstroSky #Art #ArtCard #Artist #Patreon #Pisces
A pair of mated swans face each other while swimming on a lake just after sunset, with other swans in the distance and an evergreen forest at the horizon. The viewer is in the position of a writer holding a quill pen and writing the line "Did she put on his knowledge with his power?" The writer is seated between two Ionic columns. Purple irises bloom on the shore, with a Greek wine jug standing in front of them and another similar jug tipped over, spilling wine to stain the grass and stones at the writer's feet. Pegasus is flying in the upper right corner of the image, appearing as if about to join the swans at the farther side of the lake.

A woman in a green dress sleeps on a green bed in a grey stone castle room, her long blonde hair draped down to her feet. There are the remnants of a lace canopy overhead, with lavender roses climbing all along the wooden frame and along the floor where a Russian blue cat sleeps. The dreaming woman's hand gently caresses the cat. Above her head is her dream of a great honeycomb with two honey bees and a golden drop of honey threatening to come down upon the sleeper. In the gothic arched window a golden eagle has landed with wings still raised and gazes upon the sleeping woman. Between the eagle's wings can be seen a starry midnight sky and the waning crescent Moon.
