Here’s the latest shot of my little #GreenTara shrine at the front of the studio.
There’s a better altar cloth arriving by Wednesday that will go in the center, and the one that’s there now will move to the left.
I still need to get art printed for above the monitor …
The image on the screen came up at random from the more than 1,500 backgrounds I’ve gathered – it fits right in with the Green Tara theme! Maybe it’s what the artist had in mind, and I just didn’t realize it.
Since I reconfigured my studio for Dolby Atmos, I’ve been redecorating a bit …
I’ve turned the front end of the room into something of a #Buddhist shrine.
In particular, I’ve been collecting images of Green Tara, “mother of all Buddhas.”
For Tibetans, she’s the most beloved of all the female awakened beings.
A bit out of character for me, but I think she’s very cool – and a pioneering feminist. Her figure arrived this morning.

#MythologyMonday: #Aillen mac Midhna is an incendiary being in #Irish mythology. Called "the burner", he burned #Tara to the ground every Samhain for 23 consecutive years. This only ended with the arrival of #Fionn Mac Cumhaill, who inhaled the poison from the enchanted Spear of Fiacha, a.k.a. Birgha (the Spit-Spear), to keep himself awake and slew #Aillen. The act won him the leadership of the #Fianna.` #Celtic

The Unesco-protected Tara River Canyon in #Montenegro is one of Europe’s biggest. It’s dissected by the #Tara, which is also known as the ‘tear of Europe’, thanks to its crystal clear waters.

Me watching Ryu Hwaryoung in #MadDog: "Man, she's so cool and confident and self-possessed yet warm and engaged. It's incredibly appealing. I'd love to see her play an idol. She'd be perfect!"
Spoiler: I was not the first person to have this thought.
#MythologyMonday: #Aillen, son of Miodna, is an incendiary being in #Irish mythology. Called "the burner", he is a member of the #TuathaDéDanann who reside in Mag Mell, the #Otherworld. `Aillén’s secret weapon, apart from his fire-breath, is his timpán (a lyre-like stringed instrument). He is a master of the suantraí (lullaby) style of ancient Irish music, which he deployed, every #Samhain, to put the denizens of Tara into a deep, death-like sleep.
Then he burned #Tara to the ground every

My body decided it had enough and shut down, giving me the middle finger. It's nothing serious, this time, and it'll take a few days to recover. Perhaps some fun projects are on hold, but who knows. I've been inhabiting this body for so long to know I am weaker than the average and I need extra care, even if sometimes I forget that. And it's also difficult to convey my limits to others.
Luckily Angie came to rescue and is providing the cuddles I so much need. Along with paracetamol and binaural beats. From Tara's sofa, 73s for the night.
