Beautiful the moon in her Gemini Holoku. Mahalo nui e Mahina
|
It's been awhile since I've been
here to blog about counting on the moon. I have been
here, and
here and
there paying attention to life on Earth while she travels around the sun with the moon, Mahina, always a constant partner.
All day yesterday the sky opened up with 'ua ka lani plenty of rain, thunder for extra elemental presence and humidity tempting 100%. So late in the evening when I could not quiet my mind and heart, stirred by thinking and emotions that wanting attention, I walked across the puddle-thick forest floor and sat at the screen. There was one beautiful message from our dear Margaret (Pete's sister). Her message was an unexpected birthday gift of stories and examples of how their parents' examples of "being a cover for the other" imprinted her.(Sun and Moon).
While I have been away from this blog the events and experiences of life on the planet have kept things interested. With a new solar year, beginning for me and a new Makahiki already begun I found my astrology newsletter for today from Elsa P. Here's part of what she had to say about today's Gemini Moon:
" We wake with the Moon in Gemini bothered by Saturn in Sagittarius and Neptune and Chiron in Pisces. Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto form a second T-square.
Heck yeah, people are scrambling.
- They are weighing options (Jupiter in Libra).
- They are considering commitment (Venus in Capricorn).
- They are thinking independently and may be open-minded (Mars sextile Mercury in Sagittarius).
- They are working to frame their story (Saturn in Sagittarius).
None of this is inherently bad, but it's certainly a lot to do. It may be time to retire the word "slacker". " ElsaElsa Newsletter
If the flavor of today's moon is a snapshot of what my new year will be like I will continue to be one busy old woman. Many blessings to you readers who count on the moon from where you are on Earth. May you be surrounded with people who share your values doing good work together having lots of fun. (Thank you to Aurora Levins Morales for that line which she put in her book
Kindling when she described her Cubana psychiatrist's final prescription. Now that is solidarity in a healthcare system!)
