A night at the theatre…
Tonight we went to Scottish Opera’s performance of Kafka’s The Trial. Thought-provoking and beautifully performed. Oh, and I made this image while I was waiting for the curtain to come up, composed of the program cover and a photo of the theatre. I actually think it speaks to the main theme of the story – the impossible maze of societal systems in which the individual becomes swallowed, lost, condemned.

Weekend plans…
I’m at the end of a very busy week, and I’m looking forward to some down-time over this weekend. Time to stop. Time to rest. Time to breathe. Time to knit. I’m not sure how much writing there will be. Or maybe my posts will be mostly images. Like this one…

The point of selfies…
While walking through the centre of Saintes in the Charente-Maritime region of France, I came across this… Of course, I had to stop and take one! I was flicking through my photos on my camera this evening, when I saw this ‘selfie point’ image and accompanying selfie, which seemed significant as, for the last couple of days, I’ve been setting up the online circle in a secret Facebook group for The Goddess Self: Revealing the Face of your 2017 Goddess. Each circle sister there has an altar space there, prepared by me, and then there are various other admin posts and invitations shared, along with adding everyone in and welcoming them…
