"A book is like a garden
carried in the pocket."

The palest ink
is better than the best memory.

Do you believe in astrology?
If 'believe' means that the stars rule us,
no matter what we do;
Then no, I don't believe that.
But I'm always interested to look into
the collected wisdom of generations,
confident of finding
some useful 'intel'
therein.
Few useless things
hang around for very long.
(No mother-in-law jokes here please!)
In fact,
learning a bit about lunar
(Chinese) astrology
has been helpful
if only
in reminding me
that we live amidst a constellation
of ever shifting influences,
wherever they come from.
It has been helpful by
reminding me that:
while we may feel a certain way
right now-
it is never a permanent condition.
To often we think of ourselves as "fixed'
in who we are;
But we are actually becoming
every minute.
As long as there is life,
there is choice.
And fixed thinking
does not well serve us
on our merry way. . .
Tomorrow we will look at things
with new and different eyes.
Thank you for sharing my lazy spirals!
