My guest post looks at my contemplative practice of Photo Lectio...reading the visual text of your photographic images. It is the heart of my practice of using photography to inform my meditative writings. It is based on the monastic practice of Lectio Devina and the Jungian concept that the soul speaks to us through images.
I hope you take the time to follow the link below to Abbey of the Arts to read the post. For those who have followed this blog for some time, Photo Lectio will be familiar to you but a quick review is always a good thing. You might even consider trying the idea of Photo Lectio yourself this year. The landscape is just waiting to share it's wisdom with you! Your soul will let you know what is important for you to photograph and, with practice, you will be able to read the images you create as easily as you read this post.

Patricia, your guest post was great. I love how you are using photography as a means of expressing your connection to the Divine, it is so refreshing! The way you describe your process is inspirational, I can identify with much of what you are saying...I think we have a privilege here online at this time of our evolution in promoting practices that encourage and up-build ~ well done! x
Thank you so much Susan! The messages and inspiration I am gifted from the landscape is my way of communing with the Divine...all I have to do is just sit still and listen!
