This Lunation will lead us through a lot of “joyous repair work” and actions that will help us reconstruct inner and outer “piers” where our “ship of personality” is moored. This one brings a lot of clarity and peace related to how we’ve allowed our inspiration to shape our lives these past 4 years, and why we no longer like many things we did as recently as Spring.
