DRAWING DOWN THE RAIN

"Drawing Down the Rain" (5-27-15 045v2t) was just now tortured out of a really old version of a much older original pic. Had great fun with the many moods and scenarios that presented as I fiddled with it. I finally settled on the one in the title and "finished" the pic based on that. When I'd realized this morning that a full moon is coming up on the 30th (and that's one of the reasons I'm a bit crazier than usual) I recalled a Pagan ritual called "Drawing Down the Moon." It was a short hop from that to drawing down the rain in this time of drought! (Especially once I brought out the aquas and blues ...) BTW, if I remember correctly, in the Drawing Down the Moon ritual, the High Priestess draws the moon's energy down into the sacred circle, standing with her arms up and open before the altar, etc., etc. And I see reaching arms in this cactus's stance.
