This image is for Mike (FaeMike) - happy birthday my friend and thank you so much for your long support of my works. Mike was one of the first people to "discover" me here and he has commented on virtually every image I have done. He is a great friend and a rock of this community. I know Mike loves the magical and the mystical so this one is for him. Wish Mike well on his special day. Hugz. Anna had found her spot. Snuggled up tight into the base of an old tree, her back protected, she rooted herself onto the rotting rock floor of the old temple. With her body secure she could begin. With her circle cast, and a candle lit, she slipped into her trance. Soon the dreams would come. Millicent, with a cat's keen sense of boundaries curled up to doze just outside the circle Anna had cast. With her there, nothing in this world would intrude on Anna's space. George, showing uncommonly good sense, decided this was a good time to be a good boy and cuddled up with Millicent. The big cat smiled to herself as the little reptile promptly fell asleep against her head, gently snoring in her ear. This was good, she thought, as she wrapped herself a bit tighter round George; as long as she kept him with her he would not be inadvertently barging into Anna's circle. For her part Ingrid took up her position on the shattered remains of a marble column. She chose to face in the opposite direction from Millicent, keeping a half awake watch on Anna and over anything that may come flying in from the mountain valley that fell away from the temple edge where they were all perched. With everyone in their place Anna could take her leave of the world and enter the trance dream state. Focusing on the flame, she let go and made her call to the ancestors.
