La Luna Neptuna

The 360 micro-essays of La Luna Neptuna: A Pacific Rim Prayer Wheel form a loosely arranged moon-and-tide calendar. This mandala of perspectives on our largest ocean's geologic Ring of Fire finds oblique allegories and parables bubbling up from the elemental interplay of Land and Water. The word Pacific implies peace but the region is also a site of protean turbulence. La Luna Neptuna reads omens in a gull's cuneiform footprints oracles in a foaming wave's fractal lattice and axioms in a water molecule's triad of atoms. Along the rotary circuit of these meditations quark-like sand grains undulating currents and a teeming marine biome inspire a liminal coastal way of seeing and writing.
