Thank you. Yesterday, I started my day by walking to Bryant Park to see a rare American woodcock that has been resting there in its migration north. This was a break from the daily episode of "The Donald Show." A couple that I met there said that they used this birding time to refresh and reconnect with the Earth's rhythms rather than the chaos. They had also done this when Flacco the eagle owl escaped from the Central Park zoo and mostly stayed in the park (they live across from the park). We all agreed this was so much more important and better for our health.
I've been a fan of yours for over 30 years and can't count how many times you've helped me feel seen thru your writing. This is one of those times....thank you✨
My new guiding animal is a soaring griffon vulture. My fresh initiation name is Matilda Winehill, mysterious namesake of a building in my neighborhood. The charged symbol to serve as my personal emblem is a tall revolutionary guillotine with my own head in the basket. ♌️
As always Rob your offerings are right as rain and is like a dash of fertilizer for the brain. I would like to share, also much for the same reasons as you share, Cancers are like that, its a gene thing. Letting Trump and his ne'er-do-well attitude and behavior live rent free in my mind and take up valuable space and energy sparked a need in me to evict without causing harm to myself. I did not want to wish him harm or get even which would only have his cruel behavior rub off on me. Instead I conjured up a curse. I wrapped my mind and heart around the energy of divine protection from negative energy and a reflective shield that would send all that darkness back to the sender. That way I am not responsible nor do I have anything to do with what happens to Trump. He is doing it to himself. He is getting back everything he is sending out. He becomes a magnet for what he is releasing. My end is repelling the negativity and at the same time recharging my batteries and becoming a magnet and at one with all the love, light, beauty and happiness we all share with each other. Big hug Rob as always.
It is very difficult finding the balance between what one experiences in their day-to-day reality, and how to change in a way that breaks out of that monotonous loop, and enter a more healing way of living. But I am so grateful, so very grateful, to be reading your writings which inspire me to find a better way to live with more dimensions. Love you, Rob ❤️
There is an astrology layer worth surfacing here. Chiron, the asteroid named after the wounded centaur, is exactly this archetype: the wound that became the teaching. In a natal chart, where Chiron sits is the wound you can not heal cleanly but can learn to integrate into how you move through the world. The trick Brezsny is naming is the move from why do I keep getting wounded here to how do I become the medicine I needed. The Chiron return at 50 is the structural moment when this becomes available, and Saturn return at 29 is the rehearsal. The ingenious, compassionate care framing is technique-precise. You actually get better at carrying the wound over time.
