Lunar Lore

“Moon-Drop,” in Latin, virus lunare, a vaporous drop supposed to be shed by the moon on certain herbs and other objects, when influenced by incantations. – Brewer, “Dictionary of Phrase & Fable”.

“Make friendship with the stars.”

Now the day is spent, And stars are kindling in the firmament, To us how silent, though like ours, perchance, Busy, and full of life and circumstance. – “The Lady’s Almanack” for 1852, London

When the Moon is in Libra or Scorpio, dress your Garden, and prune small Trees and Shrubs. ~Leonard Meager, “The English Gardner”, 1699.

(another beautiful poem by our adopted Poet, T. J. WhiteWolf)

Sphere

I am ever grateful to that which has given life

Too the one that started it all

Too thee I give thanks

for such beautifulness

In all of the variety

Which can be called the spice of life

Maybe not by all

Round and round

Which the wheel keeps spinning

And so it goes

It has no beginning

Nor has an Ending

Forever meeting

Round and round

We go

Spinning in a circle

In a spherical motion

Just going with the flow

There is a rainbow

And a perfect halo

With wings being optional

Ever sweet music always plays

Too charge the soul

And stir emotions of expression

Ever causing movement

Always moving completing a cycle

In many different forms

Making such bedazzling sparks

Such a pretty light show

I love the glow

And no I can never stop

Being amazed and in awe

Of such wonders

Always leaves me feeling lost in all

Caught in this space

Which is everything

Knowing nothing could ever compete

Or duplicate nor replace

And so I always have a hold

Fitting in the fold

Living in this beautiful sphere

That we call home

Good morning, my sweets! I hope everyone is doing great today. One quick word (I promise, lol!) about yesterday. We were abruptly cut short in our postings yesterday. It surprised us, I swear I paid the bill. No seriously, everyone knows we use a Co-Op for our internet service. This is an effort on our part to save money. HA, we were promised one thing and ended up getting another but that is not the point. They were hacked yesterday. Fortunately, all that happened to us is that we lost our internet service. We have a firewall on our router plus two anti-viruses. I remember talking to the main man at the Co-Op about their protection. When I told him what we had, he thought we had went a little overboard. I wonder if he thinks that now, hmm.

Anyway, that is what happened to us. Hopefully, they have their protection up and running. I guess they do since we have internet! Stopping to think about it, most of these people out here don’t realize how dangerous it is to have a provider that doesn’t take security seriously. I only hope the attack didn’t go any further than the Co-Op’s office. I know there are some mean viruses out there right now. So be careful on what you click and make sure if you are buying online, buy on a secure site.

Ok, that’s the internet safety lesson for the day, lol! I am off to work….

Have a very blessed Wednesday,

Love ya,

Lady a
