Dear friends,
...dear beautiful people in my life... you all mean so much to me, you
cannot know.
...this year I thought I had nothing to share (art or poem or video),
but, then, Shadow Cave is about reaching into the darkness in
ourselves and bringing what is hidden in us to light, which is sort of
like the return of the sun in the darkest moment.
It's a small offering, and perhaps too long to watch. Don't worry if
you don't, I don't mind and I'll still love you. I did subtitle it, so
click on the cc if you'd like to read along, or translate into another
language.

It's based on a real ritual I did in 1995 and wrote an extensive entry
in my journal about. I re-wrote the ritual as a sort of modern fairy
tale. It's about integrating ourselves at our deepest levels, however
we image that. Sometimes what is in our shadows is not anything
'sinful' at all! It's only what we've repressed in ourselves... which
could be our recognizing how luminescent we really are!
Shadows and dopple gangers appear in this videopoem, as ever. :)
Please forgive. (I just can't help being multiple, ya know!)
I offer it to the light within us.
On this Solstice, Festival of the Lights, and for the auspicious
coming year, many blessings to you, wishes for good health,
prosperity, good fortune in work, relationships, family, and the
success of all your creative endeavours,
love, Brenda
