Taurus Balsamic Moon
—June 23

It was a historically controversial American defense lawyer, Clarence Darrow, who once stated,

When we fully understand the brevity of life, its fleeting joys and unavoidable pains; when we accept the facts that all men and women are approaching an inevitable doom: the consciousness of it should make us more kindly and considerate of each other—this feeling should make men and women use their best efforts to help their fellow travelers on the road, to make the path brighter and easier as we journey on; it should bring a closer kinship, a better understanding, and a deeper sympathy for the wayfarers who must live a common life and die a common death.

Today’s energies are more or less subtle, which is to say almost thoughtless, or without doubt, or struggle… though quite profound if truly tuned into—a sense of actual cosmic ease may be experienced: try to participate in all you can if you’re on the frequency.

❝What we hope ever to do with ease, we must first learn to do with diligence.❞
——Samuel Johnson
