Blue Mandala by Maureen Frank

Download this week’s Mandala of the Week

Inspired by Friday’s Mandala of the Day “Neptune”, I created my version of the astrological glyph for the planet Neptune. I felt compelled to add the circle in the cross section…it feels like a window or portal. In the background I put a rippling pond of water with what looks like an abstract landscape of hills and/or clouds…or ribbons twisted in the wind/air.

From the CafeAstrology web site about this glyph:

Neptune’s glyph…resembles the trident that the god Poseidon/Neptune is often shown holding. The crescent, representing receptivity, is pointing upwards, indicating spiritual receptivity, and is placed above the cross of matter. This symbolizes the yearning of the soul to break free from the restrictions and limitations of matter/reality.

This Week…

In coloring this week’s MotW, we can look at several areas of our lives related to our spirituality:

  1. how receptive are we to our own spiritual connections?
  2. what can we do to move forward with our spiritual growth?
  3. where are we feeling restricted or limited?
  4. what spiritual practices can we use to process through these restrictions?
  5. how comfortable are we with the concept of us all being spiritual beings?

Feel free to come up with any additional questions or thoughts related to this week’s mandala.

Happy Coloring!

joyfully,

Maureen

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
