chez atum

August 13, 2021 CIARA BIRD

Today something divine was born. 

My niece Penelope.
my Mut Queen Afua,

and also an idea.

A concept.
A memory palace, 
or a place for the interiors of the rooms of the palace
Or the notes on the walls of the rooms
To take shape.

A place for remembering and building.

A place for the future, 

the foundation for what will come.

A place for ATUM.
a place for me.

chez atum by SESENMOON

I’ve opened a new sketchbook and call it chez atum. I look forward to how this space and these pages will grow and take shape. when I sit down to write, what I expect to come out is never what I see on the page/screen so I mostly look forward to what I will actually say.

August is my time to give birth — be it physically or spiritually. it seems I always bring something forth at this time. maybe because I am Nut. perhaps because my mother is.

I love the things I cannot answer. the quest, the journey. the slow life.

I have learned so many things so quickly. now I want to be more still again. to reflect and nurture each part. to sit inside of the knowing and go past that part so I can truly achieve overstanding.

so the silence and the peace can deepen.

I give thanks for this place, this experience, and this lifetime.
