108
Last week I reached my 100th post. I meant to mention it, but forgot. Now I'm at 108, which is a sacred number. And the last time I did one hundred drawings I was probably eight.
Doing a quick scan of my room for something sacred to draw, my eye settled on the foot of the carved wooden dancing yogini I found at a yard sale. The one the "Bali bird" was drawn from. Feet are considered to hold the greatest amount of spiritual energy in India. When you honor a spiritual teacher you "bow to their lotus feet". I learned that the same is true in Mexico when I met a curandera that read feet like palms. She said the greatest amount of energy is concentrated there because the energy of the palms is dissapated through touching things and shaking hands.

Love this, Anne.
It made the bottom of my feet tingle to look at it!
