" The more I think about it, the more I realize that there is nothing more artistic than to love others."
Vincent van Gogh
"Sensual pleasure passes and vanishes, but the friendship between us, the mutual confidence, the delight of the heart, the enchantment of the soul
, these things do not perish and can never be destroyed." Voltaire"The human mind treats a new idea the same way the body treats a strange protein: it rejects it."
P.B. Medawar
Forty years ago, the lyrics of a song called "Aquarius" brought the dawning of the new age into our collective awareness:
"When the Moon is in the seventh house
and Jupiter aligns with Mars.
Then peace will guide the planets
and love will steer the stars. . ."
At dawn today 14th February the Cosmos actually embodies this perfect alignment!
Some folks believe that this event will help us to actualize our collective longings for love, and true peace.
That it heralds the actual dawning of a real "Age of Aquarius!"
Astrologers, and others, believe that this alignment carries the opportunity and energies to help us to heal the schisms that have separated us for so long; That it favors collective humanitarian movements and the co-creation of social justice.
Perhaps we can finally begin to experience this "Shift" throughout our world.
Finally, the old paradigms will really begin to give way to hope, to practical altruism and to the inspiration that each of us cherish. . .
At 7.25am on 14th February - and for the 18 minutes of the alignment - you are invited to add your own best intentions for love, peace, and cooperation; To be a co-creator of the dawning of the Age of Aquarius in whatever way feels appropriate for you.
You may choose 7.25am (UT) or 7:25 am your own local time to join the energizing wave of intention that will surge around our Earth.
I'm so happy to share this with YOU.

Hello Cloudia!
It's been ages since I have read the Medawar quote; he is such a fantastic essayist.
You never cease to astound me with your quotes.
Although Voltaire...
Voltaire always gives me the willies as he had sarcasm rather than blood flowing through his veins. Not for the wrong reasons, mind you. He was a critical thinker in a time of dogma. Divergent dogmas, but still... dogma.
He was exiled from Geneva, you know (long after being cast in the Bastile and then being exiled from Paris).
He didn't go far, not to England as he had done after his first Parisian debacle, but just across the Swiss border back into France, to Ferney-Voltaire.
But still.
He couldn't come back in.
It always astonished me how the Genevois lauded Voltaire as one of their own on the 230th anniversary of his death.
No doubt they will do the same this year on the 250th anniversary of the publication of Candide, which he wrote immediately after being forced out of Geneva.
Tschuess,
Chris
If I try to align my energy with the cosmos at the proper time according to my clock here in EST, I will try again later in the UT zone. {;-]}
The moon shot is lovely and I just love the dogs flowery collar! :)
The quality you manage to maitain with such variety is truly impressive.
Impressive quotes as always. Sometimes a bit too difficult for a simple mind like I have! Ha, ha,... Anyway I love your moon shot, and the harbour is wonderful. Cloudia, I wish you a great weekend and a wonderful Valentine's Day.
Happy Valentine, CC. I didn't know you believed in astrology.
Cloudia,
Right, and I meant to say, that, whatever one chooses to believe, it always seems good to aim for peace and happiness and new ages...
Tschuess,
Chris
Thanks for this great post and info, and the nice note, too. what a perfect day to join in with the world!
Happy Valentine's Day
Aloha Cloudia - I dropped in too late for the 7.25am alignment today, but I meditated at the same time, so I hope that counts a little toward that event :). Even though I don’t have time to visit every day – I read and enjoy every morsel of your writing (you are so darn productive). Btw, that “Jelly Fish” on that patch of grass – priceless! And glad, Houdini found a homeJ
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY YOUR WAY!
Now, hopefully, with the arrival of the Age of Aquarius we will all be working towards healing ourselves and the planet.
Well, I was sleeping at 7:25 a.m. Missed the whole thing.
hope the age of aquarius has finally and thankfully dawned in all its glory!!
Thanks, Chris!

I was busy "sleeping in" at 7:25 this morning. Is it too late now?
You have a great blog. And how lucky you are to be living in Hawaii!
If the alignment of the stars helps, superb. But the real energy comes from within. And what you do with your posts is create a conduit through which all that energy can flow into a sea of wonderous change. Beautiful post and beautiful request. Aloha, Cloudia, and happy belated Valentine's Day.
