Halcyon DaysHappy Full Moon! At 1:53 pm EDT on the 19th, the Sun opposes the Moon in Leo/Aquarius. In a way, summer emotionally ends. The turning is felt. Harvest is ripening; there's a dying to fruit. Then just like that......... it's Virgo with the Sun entering that sign on the 23rd at 8:48 pm EDT. Number two pencils dance through your head like sugar plums. The end and the beginning are near. The light is waning. The work approaches. We've told tales out of school too long. The principal of it all harkens us to the hallowed halls....... What did you do with your summer vacation boys and girls? Do you have any innocence left? How's your play quotient? Didjya have a roll in the hay? Scrape your knees for the fun and adventure of it? Capture lightning bugs in a bottle? New clothes? There's a bittersweetness permeating the collective. A sense of peak and pathos, getting ahead and getting the dread, halcyon daze going bye bye bye.... You may notice that in some respects, in some moments, these are the most beautiful days of your life but, even that is not enough. The scenery, internal and external, is tattered. A wind moans in the scaffolding. Murmur murmur. There's something right in front of our knowses. What has come of our begottens? You seek yourself. All beings in the Dream seek their self. They work hard for it in struggle and strife, god and glory, love and longing. Is there ever enough? What would you ever get that could fill the whole, the hole, the holy, the wholly effort of It All? Do not jettison your playfulness in the face of suffering. The mind wants your attention, your identification. It wants you to be a soul proprietor embodying an aching heart looking for the Other. The Other is a projection at every level of Creation. You cannot be complete in that Game, but you can be. You can be met. You can express. Share yourself for the hell and heaven of it. Reach out and be touched. Craft your work and offer it for our enrichment. Let your loved ones love you. Embrace the unlikely. Glide while you sing your song that doesn't have to be right. The transition between Leo and Virgo is fine, fierce and shy. The courage of Leo is made manifest in Virgo but Virgo is often little heard. She demures; she aches for having been hurt too much; she sees and knows. But in Virgo what must be sifted out is what happened and what is. The past is long felt and the cud of it is more than chewed. What happened is what you know. Knowing is not real. It is pre-tension from wounding and cover-up. Don't believe in it. Discern. This is Virgo's speciality. Discern. The pattern of victimization is held in this sign. Slavery and compulsion haunt its worried way. All manner of competency and craft, perfection and culture adorn her. She is the best while feeling she is not worthy. How unmet is Virgo? Aren't we all unmet in the Dream. Doing something won't solve the problem because there is no problem and solving it bedevils more problematic manifestations. Letting be, exercising one's self, cultivating any old or new thing you want to cuz you want to is natural to Virgo. Putter, patter, proffer. May all Virgos share their wonderful selves. And get off of the pity pot. You won't miss it. With Mercury gone direct, life is a bit easier. Worms still rattle around the machinery a bit but that settles out. Get on with things despite anxiety and ennui. You are karmically tired. If you recognize this have a session with me. I can be helpful to your dilemma. It is not about what you do in your life. It is about what you choose. Choosers can't be beggars. You have every moment to enjoy yourself. The rest comes and goes and always all ways will. Have fun with it and expect nothing more from it. It's glimmers in the mirror. I understand your weariness. Drop the burden of being something/somebody. Attainment spiritual or material is distractive and as destructive as it is creative. Just do what you want to do! You won't finally harm any one in that, despite what the mind, what the higher highfalutin mind tells you to do. You are brewing a brand and clear new true you.
Rest in the peace of your being,
