THE DREAM

It is night. I am at a house with a yard and maybe an outdoor verandah or deck. It is a special night in some way--perhaps there will be a full moon, I’m not sure. It is a night for doing special ritual things because it is a night of power.

I am speaking with a close woman friend. I tell her that I will do something but it will not involve my being present in the body--it will be more like watching and leaving something out in the yard as a male person or presence or spirit comes.

She, on the other hand, is considering a more risky venture that involves being more involved in the body--either she will (or she's telling me she once did) use her whole body as a viewfinder through which this male person or spirit passed, or will pass.

I admire this very much but tell her "It's too risky for me."

NOTE

The woman's pose clearly echoes that of Nut, the Egyptian goddess of the night and stars. I used a variety of Egyptian hieroglyphics within and around the body.
