Basic artistic representation is an ancient pastime-think of the cave drawings of Lascaux. Simple toys are the best, those that call out the creativity in all ages. Crayons marry these two truths in a most colorful and powerful way. Consider the myriad ways crayons can be and are used in our modern world. A study has shown the scent of crayons to be one of the most recognizable in the world. How can such an object not be infused with magic? Coloring books and crayons are enjoyed by children of all ages and are used as therapy for many ailments.
Whether you grew up with many crayons or few, honor your magickal inner child today and purchase a box of these marvelous waxy sticks. Treat yourself to drawing paper or a coloring book. Lose yourself in the rainbow. Say: "I will play today, And let my mind relax Back to childhood. Iris, goddess of rainbows, Inspire me as you did Those inventors of crayons." |
