The turning of the Sun

Cosmic Catalogue

The turning of the Sun marks a significant turning point of light. In the Northern Hemisphere, the light of the Sun will embark upon its ascent of increased light that will peak in June’s Summer Solstice. While in the South, the Sun’s arrival in Capricorn sees the slow descent into shorter days and longer nights.

Regardless of your vantage point, it’s a celebration of light. Whether you’re preparing to celebrate the birth of a Jewish man, the festival of light that lasted eight nights instead of one, bonfires and pagan rituals, or all of the above or nothing at all – it’s a time to celebrate the light within you.

Sweet and sublime alignments flavor the week as the Full Moon begins to wane. So, what light are you emanating that can make the world a better place? Are you projecting your fears or insecurities, or are you trying to be the tide that raises all boats? 

A little bit of faith combined with kindness and trust can go a long way in healing a fractured world. Overwhelming or helplessness can be easily cured by changing your mind and taking action. In every moment, you can think differently and take a different path. The battle of dark and light begins with you!

Short poles

It never felt like this before. My chest was in the right position and wasn’t getting bounced backward every few turns. My right shoulder wasn’t getting jammed into itself with every pole plant, forcing my torso up and my entire body to stretch out. That beautiful extension that forces me to then retract everything while…

Only three people have ever cut my hair: There was the older gentleman that my mother brought me to when I was young. Then there was the son of my dad’s barber, who cut my hair for decades. And finally, there’s the guy I’ve been going to for the last several years. I especially liked…
