We’re drifting towards the Full Moon, fiery skies ahead. But right now, it’s okay to float and dream and wonder. Laid on a little boat, fingers trailing connections between the stars in a glorious night sky, giggles at silly asterisms, breath puffing in the dark, the arm of the milky way a reminder that we are part of something so much bigger. And then the realisation that we are just one tiny galaxy amidst a trillion other galaxies. A wave of awe, impossible to comprehend.

Neptune rocks us gently, a cradle for the soul. We can go to him each time life overwhelms. Sleep, escape to the woods, meditate, doodle. And if tears threaten, let them come, for all returns to the Ocean God who will one day send them back to the skies to return as rain to grow your garden. Everything is in perfect order, even as it slowly unravels. Trust the alchemy of the heavens. Within the collective pool of imagination, all things are possible. Dance at the water’s edge.
