IX
The Hermit

A woman sits in contemplation at the edge of a still northern lake. The sky above her is heavy with clouds, and storms threaten, yet she remains under the lowering sky, thoughtful. She dwells here alone, one who has come away from the noise of the world and the comforts of companionship to hear her own inner voice, and to read the messages in sky, water and stone. Without distraction, seemingly without connection to the world, she is connected intimately with the universe.

This is the country of silence... the deep need of the soul for quiet solitude... Give yourself this gift.
