Retro August, Of August Nights
Along the forest path to more freedom
I endured the barbs of a few swollen caterpillars
As I became acquainted with the mysteries of a most vibrant butterfly.
Our night rests and rises a sure flow with coloured fury
As Fire Sky unfolds from unkempt forest beauty.
You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed
Our undomesticated Dusk sings it's untamed song
and creates palatial space.
What makes this wild dream beautiful
is that somewhere it hides an
infinte palette, deep, well.

"This week gave us no rest.
After the total lunar eclipse conjunct Mars Rx (square Uranus) on July 27th,
on August 1st Mars Rx completed its square to Uranus.
In simple terms, this astrology feels like an explosion with an earthquake
thrown in for good measure.
...
We’ll most likely look back on this time and note how important and meaningful the changes that we made are, but currently the way it feels can range from excitement to a total shock to the system.
And most likely a bit of both.
This kind of astrology tends to unearth the most stubborn of our issues as well as
bringing about swift and unpredictable change.
Because the moon is traveling through uncompromising Aries today,
and about to re-ignite the Mars Rx/Uranus square on Friday when it moves into Taurus,
this week is most likely going to continue its roller-coaster ways.
We are also in between eclipses, and deep in this Mercury retrograde.
Just a reminder that eclipses pull up the shadow, or hidden aspects of our selves and our lives. Mercury retrograde tends to trick us into making mistakes so we can learn a lesson, and Mars retrograde demands that we make our anger, potency, and power conscious
so that we might use it wisely instead of destructively.
All of this astro is evocative but without consciousness the changes we make
won’t necessarily move us. They just rearrange our problems.
Whatever is shifting for you, know that you don’t have to make any decisions until you feel right with them. If it’s coming from an authentic place, you’ll move mountains.
If you act out of fear or exasperation you’ll only make more chaos.
Give yourself the time you need to get to the bottom of what’s going on.
Love you."
