Oracle of Stillness- The Laughter of the Stars

When my father died, a friend sent me a lovely card that has been a touchstone for me ever since.

On the front of the card, there was a beautiful print of the night sky, showing the stars shining brightly.

It said: The Inuit people believe that the stars are the campfires of our Ancestors, shining in their villages in the sky. The twinkling is the Ancestors, sending their love and laughter back to us….

This image has stayed with me and is a source of comfort to me and I often dream of the laughter of the stars..

And, so, this mixed media Woven Woman from the ‘Oracle of Stillness’ series is:

“The Laughter of the Stars”.

When you go outside at night and gaze at the stars, listen for their laughter…. it will light up your life.

I’m posting all the images of the “Oracle of Stillness” here on www.tottietalkscrafts.com
