The astronauts aboard the International Space Station, which was east of Madagascar at the time, captured this amazing photo as lightening was striking in the eye of Cyclone Bansi on the evening of January 12, 2015.
Actually you could say we have two mandalas happening here: the eye of the storm and the circle created from the glow of the lightening.
I love when art and Mother Nature play together. While I’m sure it was quite intense to be in this storm, from above, it created spectacular mandala art forms.
Happy Coloring!
If you would like your mandala to be considered for the “Mandala of the Day”, read how on the Participate page. It’s easy!  Or recommend one you’ve seen via my Contact page.
My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
