I watched the lunar eclipse last night – it was so beautiful – it was just after moonrise here – late in the evening – I made a point of seeing it, leaning out of my studio window watching her face sail across the sky veiled in sailing clouds – and I suddenly felt unbelievably happy.
I had been writing horoscopes and studying the astrology of this eclipse – and I knew it would lead to great emotional depth, a need to search for the oldest pains and meanings to see scars as true – to change the feelings – and I felt so incredibly happy about my life it was almost euphoric.
I must have got something right
It would be about time too
The thing is we expect to have it right, to get it right – when we are teenagers, or in our early adulthood – but it can’t be – all you can be then is the best balanced individual you can be – as you don’t ge to grow up till you are 40 or 50 – and around 60 and 70 you start to feel content with yourself, your life – with everything you have done and felt and thought – as it is all alright in the end – it really is – it all comes to rest – it all becomes beautiful.
At least if you are seeking the right things – and that is the question isn’t it?
What are the right things?
How can we attain this peace – and do we even want it?
What is it we must learn, do, feel, think – in order to know this bliss?
To be able to just look at the moon and feel euphoria at something so beautiful.
Perhaps we all need a muse, or a path, or a discipline, a trade, a craft or a vision – it is different for everyone
If we don’t have one – we will drift with the tides of life – of the moon – till we come to the shores of one – without even noticing.
WE have thus, let life lead us.
Not all of us are seekers or thinkers – but it does happen to all of us – and some of us even notice that it is happening.
The moon will always lead us – and she is beautiful – specially during the eclipse.
