Full Worm Moon

I finally got around to finishing my own dream wheel for this full moon, amid dream wheel circle, being sick, getting the kids off to a camping trip, then trying to catch up, and finishing a painting.

As what tends to happen, my board took a completely different direction from the one I'd intended!
I thought I was headed in one direction---an all-round health, well-being, move forward kind of direction, but no!

I used a bigger board than usual, got all my images and text cut out...laid it all out....I was pleased with it. As I began gluing, I noticed that pieces moved around, and didn't seem to be taking up nearly as much space as I'd planned...hmmmm.... OK, I thought; I can add more goodies!

But no, it was not to be.
I had spray painted the board itself a purpley/maroon color, as it was large and I was concerned that I might not fill it up.
Somehow I felt that it should not be filled with images and words.
Funny thing about the words....I used a LOT of text, with only a few images this time....apparently I need to really push forward in the direction that I'm headed!
Well alright....

Then something unusual happened---- I felt compelled to really bling this board up!
I pulled out the 3-D glitter glue, silver stars and let loose!
I played and played until every empty spot was filled with MAGIC!

I'm assuming that I should sit with this one for a while and ponder its message.....

Full Worm Moon Dream Wheel Circle

I believe that my first dream wheel circle on Saturday was a success.
We had a blast, talking and playing together, and in the end, learned a few things about ourselves.
I'm really excited with the idea of holding full moon dream wheel circles every month!

Creating these collages seems like such a simple thing, and yet each one tells so much about its creator. Each and every time I make one for myself, I'm astounded at how the collage seems to take on a life of its own....telling me itself what the theme is (it's most always a totally different direction than the one I think I'm headed in!)

Below are photos of participants with their finished dream wheels.

The Full Worm Moon

According to Farmer's Almanac, as the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm casts appear, heralding the return of the robins. The more northern tribes knew this Moon as the Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of crows signaled the end of winter; or the Full Crust Moon, because the snow cover becomes crusted from thawing by day and freezing at night. The Full Sap Moon, marking the time of tapping maple trees, is another variation. To the settlers, it was also known as the Lenten Moon, and was considered to be the last full Moon of winter.

Celebrate this last full moon of the winter with me, Moon Mama!
Through creative collaging, using words and images, we'll declare our Spring intentions to the Universe at my very first Dream Wheel Circle!

We'll meet Saturday, March 27 from 10-12 at Fringe Collective Artistic Studios, 159 N Jackson St, Suite 34 in Athens.
