🌀 Jeanne Marie Martineau - Dream Tending 🌀

Have you ever felt like the only real unfiltered peek into your psyche is through dreaming? Dreams are prismatic and evanescent: with their own intelligence and desires they offer us a portal to somewhere perhaps otherwise hidden. Everyday joys, hopes, and fears often make their way into our dreams inviting us to enter into deeper relationship with our waking life patterns of relating, our complexes.They also give us direct access to the imaginal and symbolic field that exists between dreamer and world, self and other, the entire world dreams through us.

100 days since Josh Nguyen, my soul family, last walked this earth. 2400+ hours without him in the 3D.Here are some excerpts, moments of writing to him. Thank you for reading 🙏 💗

My body is on fire, I don’t really know how to write this, but I do know how to write a thank you note.

Dear Josh,

Thank you for being you. For stretching my heart and moving and changing me in so many ways down to my DNA–on a cellular level.

The way I couldn’t perceive the gravity of the sun, I didn’t imagine when I first met you in middle school, the capacity of the heart I was standing in front of. The embodiment of love, kindness, non judgment, generosity, and compassion was right there.

And your joy! The sparks of life! The dynamite of your humor! The sweet connection to your childlike wonder, innocence, and unrestrained goofiness. The tenderness of your gaze. The loving accuracy of your perception. The purity and presence of your aura.

Everything you wanted to be in life, you were, you are. You are perfect. In the alchemical and root sense. Complete, as is. And passing through all 6 perfections on your way to serenity as I sit and continue to learn from you as always.

Through you I practiced a true love and acceptance that I believe is the object of the game to experience and spread. You drew out of me a type of grace that freed us both. You supported my growth so beautifully and strongly I'm queasy conceptualizing your impact.

I don’t actually think words quite begin to put form to my gratitude, limiting subtle yet powerful sensations and deep layered emotion to language is frustrating and prickly– it almost hurts to write this. So I'll attempt to practice my gratitude with my life:

Every moment a still life
A vignette

Sun on my face, bare feet on the earth, can I feel you in this moment?

Remembering to always turn towards.
Face to face.
Eye to eye.

All I can do is return to you, to your nature: peace and love. To allow myself to see you in everything and everyone. To honor your radiance by reflecting it. To attempt grace once more. To sink into serenity.

Josh, I love you so much.
Thank you.

100 days since Josh Nguyen, my soul family, last walked this earth. 2400+ hours without him in the 3D.Here are some excerpts, moments of writing to him. Thank you for reading 🙏 💗

My body is on fire, I don’t really know how to write this, but I do know how to write a thank you note.

Dear Josh,

Thank you for being you. For stretching my heart and moving and changing me in so many ways down to my DNA–on a cellular level.

The way I couldn’t perceive the gravity of the sun, I didn’t imagine when I first met you in middle school, the capacity of the heart I was standing in front of. The embodiment of love, kindness, non judgment, generosity, and compassion was right there.

And your joy! The sparks of life! The dynamite of your humor! The sweet connection to your childlike wonder, innocence, and unrestrained goofiness. The tenderness of your gaze. The loving accuracy of your perception. The purity and presence of your aura.

Everything you wanted to be in life, you were, you are. You are perfect. In the alchemical and root sense. Complete, as is. And passing through all 6 perfections on your way to serenity as I sit and continue to learn from you as always.

Through you I practiced a true love and acceptance that I believe is the object of the game to experience and spread. You drew out of me a type of grace that freed us both. You supported my growth so beautifully and strongly I'm queasy conceptualizing your impact.

I don’t actually think words quite begin to put form to my gratitude, limiting subtle yet powerful sensations and deep layered emotion to language is frustrating and prickly– it almost hurts to write this. So I'll attempt to practice my gratitude with my life:

Every moment a still life
A vignette
A diorama
A sketch
An étude
An essay
A dance
A song

Sun on my face, bare feet on the earth, can I feel you in this moment?

Remembering to always turn towards.
Face to face.
Eye to eye.

All I can do is return to you, to your nature: peace and love. To allow myself to see you in everything and everyone. To honor your radiance by reflecting it. To attempt grace once more. To sink into serenity.

Josh, I love you so much.
Thank you.

💗JM

💗Please excuse the podcast voice, ive been crying allllllll day.💗 This is a very big week. One day I will share more but today I will just share this.

Today Josh completes 49 days in Bardo, a journey between death and rebirth in the Buddhist tradition of his family lineage.

Today I completed the third and final certificate in my study of @dreamtending

This is the first module, since starting early 2022, I won’t be telling Josh about face to face. The unfolding of this experience is beyond what I can bring to you now as a I am wrapped deep within the arms of the great mystery, communing with the keeper of the magic of the house of grief.

and

Tonight is also the closing reception for Adorned Spaces at the @snagmetalsmith conference in San Diego, where my work is on display among other @baltimorejewelrycenter community artists in “Charms from Charm City” an exhibit curated by @jdiamondmetalsmith

The work I created on display in this show is a product of Josh’s love. His love drew me to Baltimore and the love he held for Baltimore in his heart spread to mine. It was this love that led me to create work as an expression of community care for Charm City and its people, to pick up bags from the streets, wash them, and invite the youth to infuse them with well wishes and mold them into Baltimore-shaped Charms for Charm City now displayed here.

This is a big week

☁️ DREAM DROP 🫧 Kept open during the day and closed throughout the night, the “Dream Drop” is a meditative object that neutralizes pesky bedtime thought loops: Every night, at lights out, I whisper open thought loops into the box. The gem on the inside neutralizes these thoughts overnight for deep and restful sleep. Once I set the box down and close it, I visualize any further thoughts leaving my mind on a ribbon and entering the box. In the morning I open the box to release the transmuted mental residue. Plants lap it up like CO₂. 🫧🌱

It’s time to grow some peace! 🌱Join me Sat Nov 4 for an immersive experience of connection, reflection, and co-creation during the Baltimore Peace Movement Weekend! 
✌️
Come tap into your own inner peace in community and help create something special. 
✌️
We will delve into what “peace” actually feels like with local history, sound, and a Metta (Buddhist Loving Kindness)-inspired sound meditation. And from that meditation, art will be made!
✌️
This event is a part of my @Baltimorejewelrycenter residency  “Charms for the City” series, a collection of Baltimore-shaped charms crafted from plastic waste I’ve found on city streets. Baltimore residents have meditated over these plastics, infusing them with mantras of hope, peace, and care for our city.
