Paintings by Nancy Wait
	The way of transformation is a difficult path.  It demands the courage to face the shadow side, wrestle with the lower self, and re-orient to light and higher purpose.  First the purifying waters of experience test and nearly drown the seeker; then the fires of “the burning ground” cleanse and burn away that which hinders light.   The awakening soul presses onward, braving the fire, balancing the opposites, treading the “narrow razor-edged path.” As consciousness expands, the portal to a world beyond opens before the inner eye. Nancy Wait is an artist, a writer, and a seeker. Her paintings—born of deep inner experience—capture the trials and triumphs that mark the spiritual quest. In brilliant color, shape, and form she expresses dimensions of the path in a way that words alone cannot do. Beneath each painting,  Nancy offers captions describing their essence.

	Transformation Facing the disparate selves of the personality, "the dark night of the soul" becomes a burning dance.
	Song to Jung On the journey within, the masculine and feminine energies, Jung's animus/anima, become integrated, forming a new wholeness.
	Evolution As consciousness grows and evolves, the soul frees itself into a world of light and energy.
