"All Four Stars are One"
©2006

In the Feri tradition of Witchcraft it is said that the Guardians long ago came to our world from beyond the stars in order to teach humankind the arts of civilization, medicine, warfare, and magic. It is also said that these beings "mated with the daughters of men" and produced a race of magickal beings; the Faery race, from which the Feri tradition is descended. These angelic beings serve to assist us in the process of evolutional alchemy, and in Feri we call to them to help us become as Gods.

This piece utilizes images from my Guardian paintings and places them in directional relationship to each other: The StarFinder in the East, the ShiningFlame in the South, the WaterMaker in the West, and the BlackMother in the North. Looming centrally above them is the HeavenShiner, centrally below is the Fire-in-the-Earth. The name of this piece draws inspiration from the stellar/angelic nature of the Guardians, as well as from traditional Feri liturgical material.
