A hymn to the waters. A surrender to the moon. A portal into the mystery of the Divine Feminine.

A luminous, dreamlike vision of feminine surrender and alchemical transformation, Opus Lunae is a painting born of ritual and reverence. The figure: nude, moonlit, and weightless, leans into the watery abyss as if dissolving into the Great Mystery. This is not mere art; it is invocation.

Opus Lunae, “The Work of the Moon”, draws its name from Latin alchemical tradition. While less commonly referenced than Opus Magnum (The Great Work), this phrase poetically symbolizes the lunar path of transformation: emotional alchemy, intuitive wisdom, dissolution of the ego, and the rebirth that occurs through softness, surrender, and cycles.

This painting embodies the essence of that sacred lunar work. A moonlit woman, weightless in water, appears to dissolve, not in loss, but in transmutation. She becomes the current. She becomes the myth.

Each stroke was created as a form of living ritual. Hermetic alchemical symbols, charged with intention, were energetically inscribed into the work as part of a silent invocation. These symbols, unseen but deeply felt, align the piece with archetypal forces of elemental balance, spiritual initiation, and inner transformation.

The painting is crafted with sacred materials that carry their own story and resonance:

✧ Holy water from the Sanctuary of Lourdes – for healing, purification, and grace
✧ Pastel Flower of the Cathars – an echo of a forgotten lineage of feminine mysticism and resistance
✧ Lapis Lazuli pigment – stone of the priestess and seer, honoring the mystery of the moon
✧ Coffee – for embodiment and the deep root of earthly awareness
✧ Charcoal – symbolizing shadow, death, and sacred rebirth
✧ And prayer – softly spoken, woven into every layer of the painting like a blessing

Opus Lunae is not just a work of art.
It is a talisman. A sacred mirror.
A piece intended to bless your home, altar, or sanctuary with the energy of the Divine Feminine Mysteries.

Let it guide you toward the waters of your own becoming. Let it initiate you into the lunar mythos, to live not just a life, but a myth:
A life shaped by cycles, soul, intuition, and the hidden alchemy of the heart.
