In fall of 2018 I began work on the "Cycles of Time Oracle". This will be a collection of forty five images based on combining the ten main planetary energies together in pairs. I am working with the inspiring teachings of psychotherapist, astrologer and teacher Jessica DiRuzza, specifically from her "The Planetary Pairs: The 45 Archetypal Combinations in Astrology" class as my main inspiration. I also want to give credit to intuitive guide, teacher, astrologer and tarotist Matthew Stelzner who initiated me into astrology and whose work is also an inspiration to the project. 

I have approached these paintings with humility and an open heart. I know that it is impossible to circumscribe or illustrate the power, multivalence and dimension of these cycles of time. I think of each piece as an altar/ a prayer. I watch the current transits as I paint, bringing in journey work and other modalities as well.

For very occasional updates feel free to follow me on instagram @contessamagdalena. If you are interested in using any of my images in any way please contact me to ask first.
