‘But Mum, why? This is what I want!’ Mercury stamps his foot.

‘You can talk to me when you have calmed down’ says Ceres smoothly and shuts the door.  Mercury kicks the steel, yelps, swears.

‘Hey son’. Mars emerges from hunting seahorses. ‘Sometimes you need to stop telling the universe what you want and just trust that you’ll get what you need. Softly, softly, my boy. We love you to the Moon and back!’

Mercury huffs, sighs, sits. The only hint of frustration his drumming fingers.

So goes the cosmic conversation today. Calm the mind. Don’t let your need for an answer, information, or conversation consume your energy. To all things a season. Wait with grace. Turn your mind to creative projects. Get excited about the endless offerings from your imagination. Feed your mind healthy material. Nurture yourself with comforting words. Acknowledge what you need without viewing it as a weakness. Find peace amidst the noise.
