HUNArt:
Patterns of Love and Power
by Lois (Heinani) Stokes
Spiders spin mandalas of sacred art
Opening portals to the unseen world
Ancient silken strings embrace magic
I spend a lot of time being aware of patterns. Patterns of man and place, nature and spirit, sight and sound. There are no limits to the patterns that connect us, as the sky against the earth.
Waves of movement in the patterns integrate the HU and NA
HU: Active - straight lines
NA: Still - curves and circles
HUNA: "Secret" Hawaiian Esoteric Knowledge
Hidden patterns though not secret
Inner knowing outward sight
rising, swelling, quieting, calming
Merging left and right
When I create art I am centered in the present moment. Mindful of my every movement. My Piko Piko breath launches me into radiant patterns of love and power. Appreciating the harmony of my work, I send the healing forth to create new patterns in those that are influenced by my work.

Patterns Concentrate
Circles enhance the effects
Spreads and releases tension
Energy moves out to the edge
Wholeness through intention
Rays gather as the lines direct
The energy moves inward
To a point increase the flow
As spokes direct it out
Curved and straight the line becomes
Squares and triangles hold power
Spirits travel in straight lines
Unable to turn corners
Symbols hold the magic of the form
Images held and yet unspoken
Thoughts directs the energy
On wavelengths pulse intention
Moving meditations as in the art of Zentangle® and Cat's Cradle help to open communication and bring into harmony Ku (memory), Lono (creativity) and Kane or Aumakua (inspiration).

I embrace this expression of art that reflects Sabi or the beauty and serenity that comes with age and the process of change. Visit my Squidoo lens The Art of Change
These Zentangles become my spirit friends who hold my prayerful intent.
