Mosaic Head
Henry de Waroquier


Studies of architecture and mythology shifted the young de Waroquier away from a career in biology and towards one in art. From the latter, he learnt of Greek art, and its foundational idea that man existed at the centre of the universe. From the former, the ability and power to shape that universe, to respect it through the act of creation and the values that contributions to its landscape have in the right hands. As a child he had spent hours at the Natural History Museum of France, and was drawn to the minerals and fossils that seemed to speak of a unknown world hidden from public view; it was unsurprising then, that as he began to create images it was ones that spoke to a past, unknowable and often created world. His paintings combined the surreal imagery of the unconscious with the historical mediums of popular imagination, combining in a gentle cohesion that seems to transcend time.
Sunday 28th June
Today, the Moon rises in Scorpio, yet because it is also at apogee, the day takes on the quality of a flower day. In biodynamics, apogee is often associated with a light, flowering influence, making this a good time to tend to blossoms, flowering herbs, and plants that are opening themselves outward. The Moon also reaches its lowest point today, bringing the two-week transplanting window to a close. From here, the Moon begins to rise again for the next two weeks, drawing growth upward and outward. This subtle shift invites us to turn our attention from settling plants into the soil, towards supporting their expansion, flowering and expression above the earth.
