Fragment: Two Women Move Away From The Same Man

(Wednesday, April 13, 2023) third quarter moon Aquarius / tarot World

I missed most of this long dream. I only remember the end.

I am in my grandmother’s farmhouse, our ancestral home. I was sleeping in the bed that my sister Jo and I would share as children, but now a couple lies in that bed together: my old boyfriend Alden and his wife. I share with this woman how a kundalini, multidimensional energy experience (a “wow, wow, wow” happening) shifted me away from him. Now she is making the same decision for the same reason, many years later than my choice.

Day notes:

I haven’t seen Alden in years. He liked to date two women at once, which I put up with for a while. The woman he was dating at the same time suddenly died in emergency cancer surgery, leaving behind her five-year-old son. When he started dating a second woman a couple years later, I left him, and he was surprised. He said he loved me. He was a brilliant jazz musician, and I enjoyed hanging out at his different gigs.

Journal: April 5, 2023

I have begun working on my next clay piece, based on the Black Raven dream. I created a mold that is the skirt, torso and tail of the raven-woman. I don’t think I need a mold to add the wings or the woman’s head. We’ll see, but I expect I can do that by hand. This photo is the back of the cardboard guide. Now I’ll start roping clay coils around the structure.

For days I have been trying to decide how to make the feathers for the wings and tail. Today I decided I can use leaves from my outdoor sage plant.

4/3/23 About to Fly a Small Plane

I am in the cockpit of a small plane. I am in the pilot’s seat. Next to me is another woman. Next to her is the pilot. He is foreign, maybe Latino. I am to fly the plane. The pilot is telling me what to do. I am nervous. I am not sure how this will work. The other woman I am with is much more daring and spontaneous.
