You and I in place
Wasting time on dominoes
A day so dark, so warm
Life that comes of no harm
You and I and dominoes, time goes by...
Syd Barrett - Dominoes (1970) https://t.co/yk6JPDY1rR
Annual reminder to not sleep on St. Gertrude, mystic, seer of visions, & patron saint of cats (also poor people, widows, pilgrims, people struggling with mental illness, & gardeners), on her feast day today. (Art by Carolee Clark, kingofmicestudios on Etsy)
Today's the feast of St Lucy, by tradition a 4th Century Sicilian martyr during the Diocletian persecution. Under the Julian calendar her feast was close to the Winter Solstice, and so she's associated with light at the dark time of the year. She holds fire on the screen at Horsham St Faith, Norfolk. 1/2
Leonora Carrington was one of the most remarkable of all the British Surrealists. Eternally humorous, cryptic and fiercely independent, her art explodes in all directions, redefining female symbolism and imagery. (UK, 1917-México, 2011).
