Feel like Arwen this morning 🤍✨ Grand rising everyone!
Water is really underrated as an offering, especially for ancestors. Think about how hard it was to get clean water, historically. Water clean enough to drink! The fact that it's relatively easy for modern people to get our hands on doesn't take away its value for our ancestors.

This [stand against the Oppressive Israeli regime] is the duty of every Muslim, every Christian, and every human being. You thought we were deceived by these man-made borders that were established? Our destiny is one, our goal is one, our battle [against injustice] is one. "Israel" is our enemy, too. Just like the butcher who takes one group of sheep for slaughter today, leaving the others to be happy and thank God they were not chosen—but their turn will come tomorrow. — Sayed Musa al-Sadr [quoted by Sayed Hasan Nasrallah, Secretary General of Hezbollah]
House-sitting for friends in Vermont and feeling blessed. It was a big and exhausting week to say the least but I’m settling in now. Exhausted but fulfilled and enjoying the solitude of this beautiful space for the next week…Just me, the cat, two little sheep named Leon and Fern and tons of plants ❤️

Aquarius energy naturally disrupts the energetic field with pure chaos.. it’s necessary for clearing out the bs, the facades & get along to go along energy!
Casilda Sanchez — As Inside as the Eye can See, video, 2009
The video installation presents two eyes trying to see each other as close as they can. The avidity of “seeing” the “other”, of entering in his/her space and trying to understand, or even share, the other person’s intimacy through the gaze turns out to be an effort in vain because without distance we cannot see. We find ourselves in a paradox: so close but unable to see more than a blurred image. The gaze becomes now more of an haptic sense, perceiving the other not through the sight but through the rubbing between the eyelashes. The resulting image embodies a physical eye that beats, touches and relates intimately.
Lately I smell like my favorite sandalwood soap, tulsi rose and lemon balm tea, attar oil (palmarosa, rosewood) and lingering Japanese incense smoke. Sanctimony on the skin.
