Some stars explode at the end of their lives, becoming supernovae in a huge release of energy and light that can outshine entire galaxies. Elements that formed within the star and some that formed in the heat of its explosion are propelled long distances into interstellar space, becoming the building blocks for entire worlds to form, like our own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\" class=\"gmail-\" style=\"font-family: 'Sorts Mill Goudy'; line-height: 2em; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px 0px 2em; color: rgb(92,92,92);\"\u003eIn life, we experience “little deaths” on a microcosmic level that have the same potential to release large amounts of life energy. When we let go of something that is no longer serving our higher purpose, ie. the profanities of our lesser, egoic personalities that we've acquired through a lifetime of conditioning, we release the energy that we need to transform into a new state of being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\" class=\"gmail-\" style=\"font-family: 'Sorts Mill Goudy'; line-height: 2em; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px 0px 2em; color: rgb(92,92,92);\"\u003eThis painting, \u003cem style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word;\"\u003eThe Death of the Profane\u003c\/em\u003e, oil on canvas (2015), is a mandala that invites us to face our own mortality.

This meditation is a temporary separation from the earthy centers below. While these lower centers are integral to the experience of life and embodiment, in this meditation we make a conscious decision to open ourselves up to the higher realms to establish a firm connection with our Soul, which we may then begin integrating into the body. In this act, we detach from the “profane” aspects of our life that restrict us to the lower elemental realms. While ultimately we come to learn that there is no difference between the sacred and profane, between life and death, for a time we must differentiate in order to understand the full spectrum of who and what we are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\" class=\"gmail-\" style=\"font-family: 'Sorts Mill Goudy'; line-height: 2em; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px 0px 2em; color: rgb(92,92,92);\"\u003eThis intentional limitation that we impose on ourselves is a kind of death. We shed our old skin and awaken to the truth of our eternal being, which is like a spiritual fertilization into the dark matter of death that gives birth to the unification of mind, body, and soul. Anytime we consciously let go of an outworn pattern in our lives, we experience a “little death.” There is a period of time for grieving, while the new pattern emerges into being. Just like the supernova, there is a release of energy that occurs, providing the elements we need to form a new relationship to life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\" class=\"gmail-\" style=\"font-family: 'Sorts Mill Goudy'; line-height: 2em; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px 0px 2em; color: rgb(92,92,92);\"\u003eThe raven ascends to heaven, and heaven descends into the body through the nape of the neck, moving through the throat chakra, which is governed by Mercury, to reach the lower \u003cem style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word;\"\u003echakras\u003c\/em\u003e and penetrate the material world\u003cem style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e. \u003c\/em\u003eMercury, the Roman messenger of the gods, resides between the upper and lower chakras to convey information from the Above to the Below.

There are many “little deaths” that we experience throughout our life, and even throughout the day. We could say that the ending of any experience is a sort of death, whether that’s the end of your cup of coffee or the end of a relationship. It is an experience that you were having, that is no more. There is a definitive before and after, but the experience itself is continuous and does not end. The cycle is unbroken, forming a continuous ring that encapsulates our experience, which is always in the present moment. Bodies and forms change, but the energy underlying their existence remains and is simply transformed into something new.\" ~ Marlene Seven Bremner\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\" class=\"gmail-\" style=\"font-family: 'Sorts Mill Goudy'; line-height: 2em; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(92,92,92);\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"shopify-section-template--18334750769307__main\" class=\"shopify-section section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-width\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product product--large product--left product--stacked product--mobile-hide grid grid--1-col grid--2-col-tablet\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__info-wrapper grid__item scroll-trigger animate--slide-in\"\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"ProductInfo-template--18334750769307__main\" class=\"product__info-container product__column-sticky\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__description rte quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Times New Roman; min-height: 12pt; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarlene Seven Bremner\u003c\/strong\u003e is a self-taught oil painter, working in a surrealist and allegorical style.
