We go through many cycles in life: days, months, years, seasons, lunations, transits, schoolyears, lifestages, etc. One I mark, in line with my spirituality and connectedness, is the cycle of the moon. Currently la Luna is in the new phase, particularly, according to Western astrology, in Capricorn, which is a creature of Earth, a bull, but often illustrated with the tail of a fish. I used to think of Capricorn as the sign of the business man, until I met one of the most spiritual women I know, my friend Jamie, who was born in the sign of Capricorn. I have also learned that in addition to business and other earthy embodiments, Capricorn is a grounding, a start of new things, a fulfillment of previous intentions and a re-alignment with Terra Firma. In warmer climates, I have planted seeds at this time of year; currently I am in a colder clime, and mostly plant seeds of intention: 1abc) to keep following my daily commitments to balancing, keeping, and tracking my mate...
End of first week and month...I should have some summary, which may happen tomorrow. In other news, I erred/"cheated: a couple of hours ago.

The last of the tech 'difficulty' days...not all due to lack of power, like Friday, but for 1 reason or another...difficult to post in a timely manner. So, this one's only the next day. It was a pretty mellow day...woke up early (last few I have! which is NOT typical) & started with the 'talking heads' of Sunday, and got in some extras, and had coffee and a decadent cheese danish that I picked up the day before; a fave 'treat' breakfast, I haven't had one in AWHILE. But it was a limited treat, only 3 servings for 3 people. Then did some cleaning of shelf-stable previous shopping trips, planted some tomato starts, got dinner together (mostly an easy set of reheats, plus cleaning salad of mesclun and watercress, avocado and tomato), then Sunday night PBS Masterpiece stuff...watched something about Queen Anne, then started on Beechham House but got interupted, then went back to an old 'Call the Midwife' (hadn't watched the last 4, now last...
