Welcome to the spectacle that has captured human imagination for as long as we've looked up. The cauldron that stirs the solar eclipse is gathering speed now and ancient magic is afoot. We are one and all in the turbulent passage to its occulting new moon, the deep stultifying drawing out. All creatures fall quiet now, burrow and wait for the shadow to pass.

As Lady Luna, her crown of stars newly minted in Pisces passes between our earth and the sun, we have today's solar eclipse. The Ancients believed eclipses to be the hand of fate at play in our lives and truly they are an agent for transformation that cannot be underestimated for its power to push us forward. Resistance is futile as fresh opportunity and potent possibility is sprinkled about us like stars.
