A SYMPHONY OF 13 MOONS is a co-creative tour de force uniting the multi-media artistic talents of Teresa Wild and Dwayne Edward Rourke. As an ongoing lifestyle choice these two artists set aside two to three days every New Moon for ritual co-creation of a painting that represents yet another stage in an ongoing journey of personal and social transformation they call The Lightning Path. On The Lightning Path, thirteen numbers and twenty hieroglyphs of the Mayan Sacred Calendar combine to constellate 260 distinct codes of transformation. A Symphony of 13 Moons reveals how Rourke and Wild were inspired by using these codes over the course of a Lunar year of 13 Moons.

a quintessential, spiritual and musical journey
author: Kelly Gerhart
A Symphony of 13 Moons offers the artistic emergence of a quintessential, spiritual and musical journey with Dwayne Edward Rourke and Teresa Wild. The Lightning Path journey opens doors to mystic elements that we all intuitively understand.
I've been fascinated to witness these two very individual artists collaborate so successfully. Their love has set their canvas with rewarding heart and many blessings. Their images and music both deepen our breath and awaken us while shaking bones and tapping the roots of who we are.

A spiritual/emotional journey that must be felt.
author: Bruce Martin
Following the Mayan Calendar thru a 13-moon (1 year) cycle, Dwayne Edward Rourke and Teresa Wild have fused interpretive painting and music into a stunning meditative experience.
What makes it difficult to write about is the fact that this is a spiritual/emotional journey that must be felt, and make no mistake, it is eminently worthwhile.
Exactly what you will feel is up to each observer, based on his or her personality and life experience. Innovative musical compositions and intricate, flowing dissolves propel the DVD forward in an effortless manner. Notes are included on the meaning of each of the 13 sacred signs. The two CDs allow one to enjoy the music by itself.
A distinct antidote to today's time-is-money mindset, this sublime artistic expression will have you arriving at the realization that no-time-is-art. And high art at that. Do yourself a favour and check it out!
