It has been like forever since I last put something on my blog. Time just seems to disappear without me even noticing.
I have started a new project as well as finishing off old ones. This year is going to be a year of finishing. Just as the earth finishes the old age of Pisces and begins the new age of Aquarius, so to will I finish my old projects. No more new things (except this BOM :)
Mrs Billings coverlet is what this quilt is called. I am going to hand piece it all and by the time its finished it will be around queen sized. Will post progress here as I go, otherwise Google may deem my blog abandoned.
The Age of Aquarius
What is the Aquarian Age? According to Eva S. Dowling the “human race is to-day standing upon the cusp of the Piscean-Aquarian Ages. Aquarius is an air sign and the New Age is already noted for remarkable inventions for the use of air, electricity, magnetism, etc. Men navigate the air as fish do the sea, and send their thoughts spinning around the world with the speed of lightning. The word Aquarius is derived from the Latin word aqua, meaning water. Aquarius is however, the water bearer, and the symbol of the sign, which is the eleventh sign of the Zodiac, is a man carrying in his right hand a pitcher of water. Jesus referred to the beginning of the Aquarian Age in these words: 'And then the man who bears the pitcher will walk forth across an arc of heaven; the sign and signet of the Son of Man will stand forth in the eastern sky. The wise will then lift up their heads and know that the redemption of the earth is near.'” (Aquarian Gospel 157: 29, 30.) The Aquarian Age is pre-eminently a spiritual age, and the spiritual side of the great lessons that Jesus gave to the world may now be comprehended by multitudes of people, for the many are now coming into an advanced stage of spiritual consciousness.
