There was a time when we said no 'blood for oil,' to stop the call to war, perpetuating the misuse of our mothers (Gaia) finite resources and the meaningless slaughter of human beings. Now we can use our blood to assist the planets regenerative nature as she deals with civilizations open wound under the gulf coast.
Gaia bleeds from the deep wounds and injuries we have caused her, her black blood spills out onto the surface of her skin, it was never ment to be this way, her blood was ment to stay in her body, just as every other flesh and blood creature is designed. We are squeezing every drop of her life-force out of her, bleeding her to death and every living thing chokes in her blood.
This is a mandala I painted with my *blood. I made it in honor of my body my temple and as a part of the path towards total acceptence of the I.
Like I expected people are somewhat shocked by this bloody mandala. And if not at least some jokes are made maybe to cover the kinda fear or resistence people feel when confronted with blood.
There is in me this question why..?
