Oooh thanks for the invitation to reflect with your juicy question! This Summer I have been coccooning with my creative inspirations, nesting into a new space building fertile creative routines, and now I am ready to create magic in the Fall. I have a line of creative connection tools I am designing alongside in person experiences combining human connection with meaningful solutions for global problems. I'm so excited for the months ahead! I am curious about your Creative Quests cards and think we're moving in similar directions. I always love the playful inspiration you so generously share and amplify within us!
Yes! It's funny with creativity isn't it that summer feels like the cocooning, dreaming months and the shift to autumn feels like time to get to work. It does sound like we are following the same thread of magic! We should find a time to chat about it all. Thanks so much for sharing! You are in the draw for a deck of cards!
In this last part of the year, I am exploring uncharted territories. I left a job that didn’t give me joy anymore, and what I will be focusing on is to find another one that fulfils me. And the hardest part is that I want to do it without any preconceptions.
I want to try to podcast, travel to immerse myself in new environments, open myself to all the creative forms that come to me, from writing to sketching. I am not sure where this path will lead me, but I am excited to follow the inspiration.
My intention is to push my boundaries and leave the known for the unknown.
I love how honest this is Francesca! Just like Water - our creativity will fill the spaces we open up for it... and it sounds like you are doing just that. I would suggest carving out some specific time to dive into the worlds of your different interests - rather than tackling them all at once (take a leaf out of our Quest book if you like - and dedicate a month of curiosity toward each one!). It's easier to go further when you have less to carry! Thanks so much for sharing! You are in the draw for a deck of cards!
The final months of the year are often filled with more activity--many of which I enjoy, but I can fall into overwhelm, or do things to get them done rather than enjoying their reason for being. This year, thanks to my participation in a Quest, I will observe with intent, discovering at least one shimmer each day--one small image/word/feeling/action etc. that captures my attention. After gathering these for a week, I will create something to savor what sparked my interest...maybe a poem, collage, painting, or whatever emerges from the process. It's exciting to consider how this practice might impact my way of being in the world!
So nice to hear from you Corrine! I hope you're very well. I'm so glad that you are still feeling the Questy ripple effects. Your approach sounds dreamy! letting pieces of creativity emerge from the things you've been illuminated by. Let the outcome by shaped by the process. Thanks so much for sharing. You are in the draw for a deck of cards 🃏

My creative intention for September - December is to declutter my collage supplies and make 10 new collage cards.
lovely! Although you have just reminded me of my very chaotic collage materials box 😅
would love to see collage cards you've made in the past
