Would you believe me if I told you that I've been working on this piece for almost 3 years and it's still not ready??
Let's call it "compass" for now.
"Go deeper, not wider"
That's what my dear friend Nina said.
To understand this piece, one should be familiar with the concept of manifesting.
I must make a note here, that different people interpretate this word in VERY different ways.
For some it's a prayer, for others a consciousness choice to aim for the things they want.
Wether or not it's "magic" or more scientifically expressed "self-programming" I'll leave for you to decide.
With another dear friend we've had a tradition to make a manifestation board around new years.
We hadn't have a chance to do so in some years now, but this year I was invited by my other friend Tuuli, to make one.
It was a very inspiring evening with interesting women - talking about our wishes and dreams for upcoming year.
One approach especially stood up for me:
"This year I want to manifest things I want to be feeling".
This kind of approach seems absolutely GENIUS, since we can get all of our wishes granted in one way or another, but universe has twisted sense of humour, so there's absolutely no guarantee that it will make us happy or brings us content.
My "compass" is an attempt to dive deeper toward my own destiny in a search for the meaning of my life.
The centre piece is a vacuum of dark matter, where in the middle lies the concept of IKIGAI.
My compass has four arrows - spiritual, art, nature and material.
This is a piece in progress and I think it'll be a base for future manifestation maps.
Will it be ready when I write all my wishes there or when all of the dreams materialize?
Who's to say -
although somebody said:
"the happiness lies not in our desires, but when there is no more desires"
