Beltane Grove Poster
Beltane is an ancient holiday that is still celebrated in many parts of the world. Beginning on the eve of May Day, it marks the bright half of the year. The festival is named after the Celtic God, Belenos, who is a Sun diety. At this time of the year cattle were driven between bonfires for purification and fertility, in parts of Europe you can still see bonfires atop the hills at Beltane. The celebration of Beltane is one of fertility and ensuring that the eventual harvest will be abundant. A springtime "greening" ritual, dancing around the Maypole, honors the female and male principles of regeneration and creation. The May Queen and King represent the Goddess and God. This is a depiction of "The Great Rite", a beautiful symbolic ritual celebrating the joining of the God and Goddess. Priest and Priestess met in a quiet grove on a joyful Beltane evening. The chalice represents the life-waters of the Goddess, the blade represents the vitality of the God. When the two combine, the land is fertile and green. Some modern versions of this ritual have the roles reversed, with the Priestess presenting the chalice and the Priest the athame or blade. The version shown here is very old, going back to the roots of ritual nature worship in Europe, and points to the duality of man and woman, for each of us has both masculine and feminine aspects to ourselves. This piece was created for the good people at Children of Artemis (U.K.) for their third issue of Witchcraft & Wicca Magazine. It appeared on the cover of that issue. "Here where Lance and Grail unite, And feet, and knees, and breast, and lip". 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor Pencils on Illustration board By Mickie Mueller

Blessing of the Triple Goddess Poster
Many ancient cultures recognize the Goddess in a triple form, Greek, Roman, and Celtic to name a few. The concept of the Triple Goddess is a representation of the divine feminine reflecting three phases of a womans' life, Maiden, Mother and Crone. In the form of the Triple Goddess, the feminine principal is celebrated in all three forms, each equal in importance, and each with an significant part to play in the cycle of the year, as well as the cycles of the moon. The Maidens' season is the spring, her color is white, her phase of the moon is the new, waxing crescent smiling down in the early evening sky. She is new beginnings and possibilities, she is the awakening earth, fresh and new. The Mother is the growing bounty of the earth, the height of summer and the early harvest. Her color is crimson to represent the womb from which all life is born. She is seen in the full round moon high in the sky. The Mother is nurturing and encompassing, she is powerful and giving. She protects her own like a mother bear. The Crones' time of the year is the end of the growth cycle, when the leaves turn, then fall, and the earth sleeps deep in winter. Her phase of the moon is the waning moon that you may see rising in the eastern sky very late in the night. Her color is black, protecting and deflecting negativity. This Grandmother figure brings wisdom and teachings, she is tough yet reserved, she takes all that dies into her cauldron of rebirth to be born again. All three Goddess archetypes are known individually, but when the three aspects come together in the triple form, their power multiplies. She reminds us of the beauty of all the parts of life and the cycles of the earth. We all come from the Goddess, unto her we shall return, like a drop of rain, flowing to the ocean. 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor Pencils on Illustration board By Mickie Mueller

Brighid Poster
This ancient Celtic Goddess known as Brighid, (Brigit, Brid, Bride, etc...) is beloved to Ireland and the British Isles, as the keeper of the home's hearth, patroness of healing, smith craft, fertility, poetry, and midwifery. Legend says that when she was born at sunrise, a tower of flame reached from the top of her head to the heavens. Her birth is said to have given the family house the appearance of being on fire. The household fire is sacred to Brighid, and each evening the woman of the house would smoor the fire, (cover it over to keep the fire overnight)' asking for the protection of Brighid on all its occupants. Brighid's festival is Imbolc, or Candlemas and falls on February 2, and is the in between time after the winter solstice and before the spring equinox. It is the time the very first signs of impending spring become apparent, as the ewes and cows come into milk and prepare to give birth. This festival is usually celebrated by keeping a flame burning in the home, either in the fireplace or with candles to honor this fire Goddess, and invite her to bestow blessings upon the home. Traditional foods served during this time include dairy items such as milk and cheese. Many Irish households proudly display a Brighid's Cross, an ornament made of rushes and hung in the home for protection, and to honor Brighid. She is one of the best historic examples of the survival of a Goddess in Christian records. During the time when Christianity moved into Celtic areas, her followers refused to give up their worship of Brighid, so the Church had no choice but to bring her into their fold by making her a saint. The most popular folk tale being that she was midwife to the Virgin Mary, and thus was always invoked and prayed to by woman in labor. There had been a shrine dedicated to the Goddess Brighid at Kildare, Ireland with a Perpetual Flame tended by 19 virgin priestesses called Daughters of the Flame. Their tradition was that each day a different Priestess was in charge of the Sacred Fire and on the 20th day of each cycle, the fire was miraculously tended by Brighid herself. When Catholicism took over Ireland, the Shrine became a convent and the virgin priestesses became nuns, but the same traditions held, and the Eternal Flame was kept burning. For over a thousand years, the Sacred Flame was tended by nuns, and no one knows how long before that it was kept by the priestesses. 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor Pencils on Illustration board By Mickie Mueller

Cernunnos in Repose Poster
"Cernunnos is a very ancient Celtic God of nature. He rules over the forests and the beasts and is also represented by the sun. He is often referred to as the 'horned one' or 'lord of the animals' Cernunnos was the God of the hunt, and is also associated with the ecological balance of the land and the harvest of wild game. One of the oldest representations of him that exists is on The Gundestrup Cauldron, an artifact from the first century. He was a icon of masculine principals and fertile land. The early Christian church, in an effort to stamp out Paganism condemned Cernunnos to be used as a representation of the devil to discourage the popularity of the Forest God among the Celts. He is usually depicted sitting cross legged or lotus position. Some conjectured that this was evidence to eastern influence on early Celtic society, while others believe that it was just as likely to merely be comfortable position for early hunters to sit, yet remain alert. I have shown him here resting, at peace with nature. he is attended by the stag, boar, fox and badger. On the stone slab where he peacefully meditates are found pine cones and acorns which are associated with the God. The sun shines through the trees upon the shoulders of the Goddesses' divine consort. This place actually exists, it's at a creek near the home I lived in at the time this piece was created." 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor Pencils on Illustration board By Mickie Mueller

Crystal Dragon Poster
"Dragons have always been a passion of mine, and one of the first things I'm likely to doodle while I'm on hold listening to hits from the 70's. In the Arthur legends Merlin explains that the world is a dragon. One of J.R.R Tolkeins most intriguing characters from The Hobbit was a dragon named Smaug. The Chinese Emperors believed they were their ancestors, if you choose to believe Darwins theories, they may be right. We don't know why but dragons seem to permeate the worlds cultures with their presence. Perhaps they are some memory of great lizards we carry on a cellular level like Carl Sagan suggests, or a archetype common to all people of the world according to Jung. They do represent to us wisdom and magick, an ancient creature deeply rooted in our past. This dragon is the feminine "Yin" cool, nurturing and healing in nature. Hovering above a healing and enlightening crystal formation on gauzy wings, her scales glisten as she summons her consort, the Garnet Dragon to create balance." 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor pencils on Illustration board.

Dancing the Circle Poster
On the hilltops in the British Isles you can still see bonfires burning joyously away on Beltane or May Day, May 1st. Beltane is still celebrated as it has been throughout the ages as a fertility festival by farming communities in olden times. The awakening of the land was very important when peoples existence relied upon it in order to reap a good harvest in the fall. It is traditional not only to dance around a maypole and weave colored ribbons about the pole, but also to dance around, between, or leap over bonfires. This is for purification after the long winter. As the celebrants dance about the circle, sparks of energy that they have raised with their jubulant dance flow about the circle like fireflies. They are all dressed differently, representing different backgrounds and traditions, but come together in the circle in fellowship. One woman has donned faerie wings, a reminder that the first of May is a day of much faerie activity. The drummer keeps time and one man plays lilting airs on a flute. We are a circle, within a circle, with no beginning, and never ending. 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor pencils on Illustration board. By Mickie Mueller

Drawing Down the Moon Poster
"The moon has great energies, love, intuition, spirituality, healing and is related to the Goddess or feminine aspects of Deity. The Moon pulls the tides and also our emotions with it's cycles. The full moon is a time when it's energy and magnetic pull is at it's pinnacle. It is this time when the energy of the moon may be called upon to grant our dearest desires. She stands before the open sky, her blade held aloft as if an etheric lightning rod, and she draws the energy of the Goddess within her, that she might discover some ancient secret wisdom, lost long ago. The waves break on the rocks below and a gentle breeze dances through her hair as she becomes one with the Moon Goddess, in a communion of spirit. The candles flicker only slightly and the sounds of nature are heard all around as she joins the glowing orb that illuminates the night. My beautiful friend Dawn posed for this piece, as well as the Lunar Eclipse. Many reference photos for the setting were taken at Lake of the Ozarks in Southern Missouri during a perfect week spent relaxing and enjoying nature from wave-runners with my husband. I think the peace I felt on that trip transfered over into this work. " 11"x17" acrylic and Berol Prismacolor pencils on Illustration board. By Mickie Mueller
