UH: My Mother’s Decree: See the tail of the kite, was a dream that I had, and the horse was dead on the floor, no life. I would say that that work is part of a calling, the mother figure, the Great Mother, orientating the heroines, vision to life, to new beginnings. In A Call Answered the horse is also bowing down. The instinct, the energy, is also saying yes. It's the unification that the body, the ego, is saying yes, but also the instinct behind it is there to propel the heroin forward, to go on this journey as well.
