Jupiter dominates the skies right now – ruling both Mars and the Sun, both in Sagittarius, and opposing Venus and the Moon in Scorpio. Under Jupiter’s influence we look for the blue skies that are just around the bend, and the faith and confidence to pursue any adventure.  In reaching beyond that which is familiar that we discover the truths that otherwise lie hidden in the mundane details of our lives. 💖

May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome,
dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

May your rivers flow without end,
meandering through pastoral valleys tinkling with bells,
past temples and castles and poet’s towers,
into a dark primeval forest where tigers belch and monkeys howl,
through miasmal and mysterious swamps and down
into a desert of red rock,
blue mesas, domes and pinnacles and grottos of endless stone,
and down again into a deep vast ancient unknown chasm,
where bars of sunlight blaze on profiled cliffs,
where deer walk across white sand beaches,
where storms come and go
as lightning clangs upon the high crags,

where something strange and more beautiful
and more full of wonder than your deepest
dreams
waits for you —

beyond the next turning of the canyon walls.
Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire
