At Dunino Den we can see what look like fingerprints expanding into the rocks. You can trace patterns, or look for handprints with more, or five, or less fingers. Today people leave shells, other found objects, something special they brought with them and money in holes eroding into the rock. I have heard how some standing stones seem to grow and how more access has flattened ground around them. The natural hollows in the rock formations cut through by the river here just in from the sea coast in Fife form bowls waiting to be filled. Is it possible that natural formations such as these inspired our ancestors to further work hollows and bowls and use them throughout the year to make symbols of their veneration? Similar natural finger prints, or footfall indicators can be seen in through vegetation and shelters as well as in rivers. The fleet footed elementals pass quickly in their sky steps and their river dances showing us their stellar shimmering ways.
The circles in the heavens bring ephemeral dappled gateways down to earth and in and through water. The lights in the dark heavens above our clay held earth give us the inclining to seek light in shade following seams such as coal, copper and quartz into the depths of the dark where bright bodied mythical treasure beasts slumber. As we reach out now to geological features our handprints and foot patterns, our maps and symbols are left beyond our life span and yet even the rocks and the strongest stones are still living and dying, erupting and eroding bones. Some parts of prehistory, or less well recorded history give us great room for us to pause and to imagine, even to make belief and to find answers that work for us and maybe for all that experience our Cosmos.
This preoccupation with what preoccupied our ancestors is an ongoing project for me that takes me along many routes of the Human Condition towards feeling the ways of something of all of us. Whilst the project continues from the previous decades of delicate and intricate work with time to let bright ideas sink into the murk of the subconscious I can confirm that the kettle is on. Tea is production and even though I have no cooker, let’s say that it is gas powered on my way to enjoy many outdoor Fires from our our dark Earth by our bright Waters through our clear and cloudy Skies to with the work of Spirit to answer the vast fold of campfires struggling to light our world with as many wyrd wonders as we can behold through immense intense stellar shimmers that feed the force of our life.
