• Toward Reoriented Companionship • "A widow at an open grave" is, like many of us, undergoing the reorientation that comes when someone important has been removed from this world known to the physical senses. We can transcend such disappointment through personal aplomb, self-discovery, and belief in the immortality of the loved one. "A man standing upon a lofty place with arms folded and head erect" sounds like Zelensky or Putin, and the former, at Donald Trump’s urging, has said he will be in Turkey on Thursday to meet with Putin face to face, the first such meeting since the war which has made hundreds of thousands of widows began three years ago. "An able friend and formidable enemy, cool and collected, yet frequently a victim to pride and self-love," is both Z and P. Let's hope and pray for solid steps toward a ceasefire and peace. "Implicit in the symbolism of 'a jewelry shop' is the kaleidoscopic capacity of the world at large for producing and reproducing whatever an individual may require in the way of immediate realities with which to deal." There can be luxury, or a path toward it. The keyword is Preservation. Intimates and neighbors help one to express oneself and discover oneself as a distinctive personality. There might be "an evening lawn party." The inherent normality of enhanced work with others makes for Companionship. • Monday • Toward Reoriented Companionship • Cosmic Piper Moon in Scorpio goes void-of-course at 11:38p PT
