Belavici: Bewitching Beauty

Once upon a time in Belavici... Bewitching Beauty!
In the midst of summer, in Belavici, I was bewitched, captivated by the beauty of this beautiful woman, Nina. I could feel the intensity of her primal lifeforce, and naturally, I was also moved by it. The Shiva in me was dancing with the Shakti in her. To be loose and natural is truly blissful. Together, we danced in the game of life, albeit only for a brief moment. I am always thankful to the feminine for the trust in opening up.

Ever since I have gotten my Nikon Z6iii and the Nikkor Z 28-75mm F2.8, it has been a pleasure to experiment with portraiture. It's so good at acquiring focus (compared to the Z7ii).
I am having fun experimenting with a different style of photography where my subjects are not still anymore!

It's also a great opportunity to connect and sync with my subjects in the process of co-creating the pictures. I like to bring out into the world the latent ability, the rawness slumbering within each of us. I like to draw out the embodiment of our wholeness through this interaction, from the Heart Center; an alignment of sorts, a tuning of hearts through magnetic resonance - I am figuring it out as I go but yes, what a beautiful journey that is!

Haha of course, a lot of work in post-processing as well to create the look I want I feel like my photography skills in general are leveling up through portraiture, as understanding light on a single focused subject is easier than on a landscape with hundreds of elements. This knowledge I can bring it to my landscape art and vice versa.

Embracing the Light and the Dark

I have been contemplating what the "light" and the "dark" means in terms of frequency and vibration. As I understand it, dark is the low-vibration substratum of Existence, particles of Nothingness vibrating so slowly that it gives the impression of solidarity over time. Dark is matter, the physical form of vibrations. Embracing the dark is essentially the embodiment of the physical. The epitome of the physical is no other than Mother Earth and all of nature, the primal, matter, particles which have been in Existence since its beginning.

And the Light? Well, light is the high vibration of the same Nothingness, it vibrates at such a high frequency that it seems immaterial. It's the epitome of what we call the Soul. Of course, it's not so simple, but who knows maybe it is even more simple! It is certainly a mystery, a paradox. Anyhow, embracing the Light is about bringing forth the multidimensional aspects of Existence.

The thing is. Even the darkest aspects of Creation, like a black hole, inevitably have a Light core. And even the Lightest aspect of Creation, like the Sun has a dark core. These massive examples are a reflection of atoms and particles at a fractal scale. The Light and Dark coexist, they are not different - they are aspects of the same Nothingness vibrating at different frequencies.

And so when we speak about embracing the light and the dark, what is meant is to simply be yourself!! Forget all nonsense. You are a Soul in a physical body. You are already the Light and the Dark how can you be an embodiment of that is up to you We each have different affinities towards one or the other, and that's why we're here, to learn! How you find balance and what you came here to learn or create is already imprinted in you. Tune in and listen… Be Yourself!

On another note, I was considering what it means to be a "witch". My understanding is that witches have an affinity for the dark, the lower chakras. They are deeply connected to the Earth, they can bring forth into Existence the mysteries of the feminine side of the force, primal, raw, sensual, physical - in embodying the dark, the paradox is such that they open a clear channel to the Light, to spirit. That is the stuff of miracles

Witches flow with the natural rhythm of the Earth, their hearts are attuned to the magnetic field of the Earth. Intuition; they communicate with Earth in such ways that it may seem supernatural, they know things which may seem preposterous! No wonder they were persecuted in medieval times, the Feminine is Unknowable, and the Masculine which likes structure and clarity is baffled by the sheer Chaos.

Now that we are out of the dark ages of ignorance, it is time to own every aspect of the force in Existence, to bring love to it through Understanding, to welcome the "darkest" parts of our collective, and to transmute it into Love. Ascension is a collective phenomenon. Everything and All of Us are aspects of Self. Let us bring awareness in Existence by Being more of our Self
