The Light from the Andromeda Galaxy left there at the start of the Pleistocene, two and one half million years ago…

The beginning of the great grinding planetary trials by ice and fire for Gaia…Cycles of wild climactic variability that have tested our kind so hard, we have been left with only rumors and myth. A vast span of experience with no real memory or continuity of history.

Science is only now starting to unravel the mysteries.

The fantastic mysteries in Astronomy & Ecology always help me keep things in perspective…

The Imaginarium team on ETSY held a contest a while back, called ‘Born in the Wrong Century’…As a Maker, Craftsperson, I have always felt that I was born 10 centuries too late to fit in, but in light of recent scientific discoveries, perhaps it was 10 centuries too soon…

 Like Merlin, who traveled backwards through time…Born in the wrong century…yep… That’s the genesis of the cycle in my Tolkien-esque Imaginarium soliloquy...

 From the Imaginarium:
There was a time, when every piece of fabric was hand spun…That time will come again…
Every sail on every ship…Every garment…The tents that kept out the night, hand spun all.
The spindle in all its forms is one of the oldest tools. It will probably be with us at the end of all things.
When, every sail on every ship…Every garment…The tents that keep out the night, will be once again, hand spun all.
