Nature photographer and lover of Maratus speciosus, Jurgen Otto, captured this delightful photo of the Australian Peacock Spider (maratus s.). What an amazingly colorful creature. I love the vibrancy of its colors and the beautiful pattern on its “tail”. And check out the four green (mandala) eyes.
Jurgen also loves to video them as well. Here’s the direct link to this youtube video which also provides more details about the spider as well as all the credits for who/what made it happen.
With today’s MotD, it reminds us to add a little color and flare to our outfits every once in a while…to liven things up a bit! Like these lovely ladies…

My Mission: awakening our Creative Spirit 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?
