Speak Yo’ Truth

This is probably my personal favorite. I look forward to craftin’ a similar work to this one in the near future. I hand drew with colorful pens, and then watercolor painted this work in early 2018, and pasted it to checkerboard and purple cardstock. I lost the original when I was unhoused, among several other works I made- it depressed me so. I think it was thrown in the dumpster or somethin’ -I’m not sure where it went! I’m so glad I took a picture of it before that happened though… I just wish I would have taken pictures of the other artworks I had in my folder along with it too. Anyways, as somebody who seeks to transform advocacy and learn from indigenous peoples, I made this in an effort to explain that desire, and also the Greco-Roman astro-triangulation of the elements.

In astrology, a “trine” is considered a “benefic aspect,” where flow comes easily and talents are recognized. However, trines are also used in Euro-Pagan symbols to represent each element, but fire is particularly represented as the uppercase triangle symbol: Δ. However, that symbol is also called Delta, and in mathematics it represents the numerical “change in“ an equation, and it is the 4th letter of the Greek alphabet (in lowercase, delta looks like this: δ). We also named the deepest state brainwave the “Delta” wave, being the closest to both death, and regenerative resting. I scry about the impact of this concept in blog post, Autocracy is a Collective Autoimmune Disease. Shortly summarized, we are in need a deep transformation in how we communicate and address psychosocial health, in order to improve environmental health.
