About Cynthia

I am a textile artist, embroiderer, wood burner, costumer, painter, and weaver who sees magic and change in the chain stitch and a well done Palestrina knot. I wish I had more control over the ways of the human world but alas, all I can control are my actions and my attitude in life and the consistency of my stitches. And sometimes even that doesn’t pan out as hoped and I must rip rip rip.

Cancer for the week

Some religious traditions don’t motivate you through the threat of punishment and don’t make you scared of God. Some corporations don’t rip off their workers, don’t despoil the environment, and don’t have tyrannical bosses. Some politicians don’t lie constantly, haven’t sold out their ideals, and aren’t power-mad narcissists. In light of these facts, Cancerian, please try to keep an open mind about them all in the coming week, as well as about any institution, idea, or person about which you have made dogmatic generalizations. It’s a perfect time to shake up and even purge some of the personal biases that you have enthroned as absolute truths.

Very timely advice.
