REACH FOR THE SUN MANDALA - (Healing in Circles series) - © Sue O'Kieffe 2007I think of this as a study in contrasts. Interior/exterior. Shadow and light. What is on the inside wanting to be expressed? What is on the outside wanting to be illuminated? This is a common theme in my Healing in Circles series. This particular series tends to be more emotional in content; healing our pain brings us closer to wholeness. As I go through my own journey, I hope to bring forth what others might find helpful in theirs. Almost all of my mandalas have a
recurring theme of light in them.This image was created from a photograph of a flowering shrub common to the North Coast of California. It has tentatively been identified as Oregon Grape Holly. I love its cheerful yellow blooms.
Please share your thoughts with me. I would love to know what you see or feel from looking at this mandala.

This mandala does have a strong inner/outer component for me. The yellow and pink vibrancy seems to be held by the circle in square.
I like that the outer part also has a design in it - it makes the container more part of the image in many ways than the plain black - though I love the plain black ones too!!
Yes - sunlight, life, spring, healing - I see all those in the core.
