Out of the Mist

By Barbara Master MFA

Mists are an unforgettable natural event. Objects often vanish then re-appear before our eyes. Walking into a dense fog initiates realities of unseen worlds. Follow this metaphor of reality. Imagine foggy weather as a new experience for you. Parts of yourself become invisible. Even a stretched arm is handless! Shock! Then, instant relief as the hand reappears.
Family and schools taught us. We were given lessons, about clocks, reading, writing and arithmetic. Then we practiced new skills. Problems arose because the synchronous magic of the infinite universe confused us. Realization dawned, newer information also connected past and present, Synchronicity of multiple realities explained connections and opened new directions.

MOVING OUT OF THE MIST

Part 1 - Description of Process

Mists disappear and reappear into the surrounding atmosphere creating a story without end. The human soul has been hidden within millennium of repetitive trauma. Memories become mists, swirling and dissolving into the daily atmosphere of one’s lives. A vortex is a whirling circular motion that can move either up or down. A tornado is an example of an escalating vortex. Water flowing down a bath drain is a de-escalating vortex. Wind and rain are accepted as natural cycles of life.
