The art above is my wife's My's. For me, this painting reminds me of a woman caught in the social-mind-emotion world of conflicting actions, thoughts and emotions. Of course it shows whatever anyone can see in it and more. I just like seeing it and wanted to show it once more on this site.
I am reading a fascinating book by Dr Joe Dispenza called Evolve Your Brain. He describes how our mind body works in such a good way that I have to let you know about it. He shows how it works and how you can work it to change your life on all levels. He has a very good website that I also recommend.

Believe it or not I am so trying to get back to this blog but as I said before, the Goddess keeps delaying me. What can I do? Talk to Her if you like. I am but an innocent child in Her hands.
When I do start back I have some very good things to share that I have found and been shown these many months, inshAllah.

It is true that everyone can see whatever he can see and even more with the projection of the mind - talk about mind - but i think there are symbols that cannot be denied, the evidence is such. Our consciousness lives in symbolism but i have to admit that i never wanted to give so much importance to it, that's why i love to watch art without expressing any understanding about it. Yes, it is all in the mind until the mind is full of anything, and so until the mind disappear and the empty heart is born, the symbolism can be meaningful. Usually artists do not have in mind to express anything specific (if they are not under any contract) but being an artist myself, i know that any painting, mostly the figurative one (that i dropped long ago), can be the portrait of the soul. I saw this painting the first time you put it up here and i pondered over it for a while about the artist intention, if she wanted to say something or if it is just a spontaneous painting, so that the unconscious speaks freely. Now that you are showing it again it is like asking for a comment: The woman is hanging, the feet are not touching the ground, not grounded in the earth and not free to fly into the sky. Holding actually grasping the liver - and when the liver has any dysfunction also the eyes will be blurred and seeing things that are not there like sadness or pain - could that be the reason of stagnant liver chi? At first i thought she was pregnant but no, any woman knows how to hold her pregnant belly, so it seems to me that even the green face (that could be simply the symbol of nature) and the heavy crown bending her head are not anything of a celebration of life - but again it comes up the liver with the green and bitter gall - she needs the alchemist in you to teach how to transform her Qi and get rid of the emotional stress. Massive golden crowns are obviously heavy too, who wants to carry one? Usually i prefer to speak in the negative way, saying what is not, because whatever i say in the positive way, can be only partially true, with this awareness i speak, so i am sure you take it the same way.
Your choice to put it here again this painting connected with the evolution of the brain is also meaningful, so, i leave you with a question. How important is to consider the neural process triggered in the brain by any visual art? We all have reactions when watching images, if coming from real life or dream life it doesn't matter, but what matters to me is basically the beauty, or what i perceive as beauty. You can ask your wife for an interview, if she is willing we may come to know what she wanted to express instead of guessing the symbolism, though i am sure you are right about the social-mind-emotion world of conflicting actions, thoughts and emotions. While trying to get your goddess on the phone because i'd love to see you back, i go on waiting for these very good things you have to share, i am sure you have, because you see? my neural process got re-activated already.
