A little something I’m working on. It’s for a Tibetan meditation center. You may have seen prayer flags before. (I’ll find a picture). I’ve seen them and never looked too closely, until this week.
There are five images on each flag, each one representing and depicting symbolic details. As I work on this commission I’ve learned so many things. The horse is called the wind horse and carries a jewel on its back which represents good fortune.
Wind flags are meant to be outside in the wind moving, literally blowing in the wind. This alone symbolizes flow and movement. You can have more wind horse energy or less, I like the moving quality of this, which could be interpreted as perspective or even focus. The horse is in the center.
I personally am trying out the experiment of finding more evidence of my own luckiness. Good fortune and lucky are interchangeable terms here.
Who knew that my favorite animal as a kid was the lucky wind horse! Uh, well, maybe no wonder.
Up until fairly recently, I thought of myself as super lucky, (guiltily so). Whatever happened that made me stop, I’m not really sure, but I decided to start looking for evidence of my own luckiness again. Apparently fortune/luckiness can change like the wind. So can perspective. So can focus. Hmmm. Interesting…
