This psalm is one of fifteen (Psalms 120-134) that were said during temple times when our ancestors ascended the steps from the lower courtyard to the upper courtyard. Psalm 121 is commonly called Eso Enai.
According to Kabbalah, this psalm should be close to a new mother to protect her and her baby as she goes through labor and delivery.
In this artistic expression, the image of the cradled newborn is superimposed
over the image of a hamsa, resembling a hand with the thumb and
pinky finger shorter than the rest. This ancient amulet is considered to
be a talisman for good luck in many situations besides the birth of a child.
The umbilical cord, containing the life blood, wends its way toward the heavens to connect with G-d, the source of all life.
Sacred Intention is a collection of 28 paintings, 1/1 edition. Delving into the meanings of various prayers, blessings and psalms, has led the artist to the creation of this series, “Sacred Intention.” "The process of painting has always been my emphasis as a professional artist. That process, when focused and meditative, is a perfect fit for an authentic expression of prayer." Marlene Burns, 2022 Each of the 28 paintings is accompanied by a text that expounds upon the sacred intention in prayer and the painting process.
