Conscious Contact

Our focus this week — Dec 24-31: “The Puzzle of Love”

Today’s MotD: Conscious Contact. In the introduction of Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact: Meditation for Connecting with God, Self, and Others” she shares this:

”The impetus for this book came from Alcoholic Anonymous’s Step Eleven: Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.”

This whole year, I used her weekly and daily writings from her book as the impetus for the 365 Mandalas of the Day for 2025. For me, I know I gained more insight for having done so. I hope you found it insightful as well.

My takeaway from all of it ? To remember that I’m not alone and that, ultimately, love is the answer, beginning with loving myself and then with sharing that love with others—making it the greatest gift I (and all of us) can offer the world.

How about you ? Are you open to improving your conscious contact with God as you understand It/Him/Them ? What have you learned in 2025 ? What are ready to release heading into 2026 ?

BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day

Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.

Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.

Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.

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?
