30 Paintings in 30 Days - Day Twenty-Four

"Coyote Moon" - mixed media on aquabord, 6" x 6"

Can it be there are only six more days in this challenge?  I am already sad!  The energy required for this month is huge, but the creative payoff is worth every minute.  And it makes me want to keep going and going.

Today's piece is inspired by the super harvest moon lunar eclipse coming this Sunday.  There will be a total lunar eclipse and it will be the closest and largest full moon of the year.

Of course there is meaning and symbolism associated with this particular moon...relationships - redefining them and our place within them.  The full lunar eclipse represents closure, endings or perhaps a new level to a continuing relationship.  The universe will speak loudly now.  Any uncertainties will be brought to light, and decisions may have to be made.  Boundaries will play an important role in this eclipse.

So the coyote has placed himself in this piece with the full moon.  How do these relate?  If they coyote comes into your life, you are being asked to look at something you've been avoiding.  Coyotes are powerful teachers with respect to relationships, because there is where we usually fool ourselves.  The coyote spirit will hold up the mirror for you to see the truth, over and over again until you get it.

It seems the coyote and the moon belong perfectly together in this piece, and bring a wisdom which will come to light on Sunday.    Hanging on to my hat...it sounds like a big message is on the way!

This piece is available, unframed.  Inquiries: imajenation@gmail.com
