To Chronicle....

Serendipitous Coincidence?
Looking forward to starting this blog: Crone Chronicle, I searched the web dictionary for a deep definition of Chronicle. And there it was, in all it's splendor, the Word of the Day: ca·non·i·cal
1.pertaining to, established by, or conforming to a canon  or canons.
2.included in the canon  of the Bible.
3.authorized; recognized; accepted: canonical works.

Searing further I found this quote:
The Canon
Literature takes shape and life in the body, in the wombs of the mother tongue: always: and the Fathers of Culture get anxious about paternity. They start talking about legitimacy. They steal the baby. They ensure by every means that the artist, the writer, is male. This involves intellectual abortion by centuries of women artists, infanticide of works by women writers, and a whole medical corps of sterilizing critics working to purify the Canon, to reduce the subject matter and style of literature to something Ernest Hemingway could have understood.
Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929), U.S. author. Bryn Mawr commencement address, 1986. Dancing at the Edge of the World (1989).
 
and this quote from Pablo Picasso....
Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs. 
 
My thoughts.... I'm not sure where this journey will take us. There is much unseen, unexpressed, yet to be discovered and brought to light.
 
I do fully embrace my early years as Crone... here to help, guide, presence...
To make a difference, 
To offer spiritual support. 
To be simply empty, 
At the same time full. 
Basking in the Void. 
Primordial Oneness.
