Tomorrow’s Full Moon in Cancer feels very sweet to me and also full of surprises. Should be a delightful weekend so relax and enjoy.

And from the book Imagine: Thomas Moore comments on our spiritual awakenings:

“But at the end of the 20th Century, a remarkable thing happened. People of all kinds became attracted to spirituality. On the surface, this would seem to run counter to the prevailing myth. And yet people are meditating, eating differently, forming new churches and communities, and looking to Indian gurus and Sufi poets for inspiration. Rumi is reportedly the best-selling poet in America.”

Later in his chapter:

“Many people today are waking up to themselves. Many tell me that they had been going along, living the American myth, when one day they realized that it wasn’t enough. They felt a hunger for more, a yearning for something that could really challenge and inspire them. A large number of people tell the story of how they decided rather abruptly to quit the corporate world or leave a job and career that wasn’t doing anything for them personally.

When people work too hard for rewards that are only material, two things may happen: They wake up to the realization that they want more out of life, or they find themselves plagued by alcoholism, or some other addiction, divorce, or depression. These are the common complaints of our time.”
