I am a sag rising, Leo Sun but I have come to love the dark more and more. I love the idea of climbing into my mama bear hibernation cave in the winter... but, alas, the outer world calls with its demands. I do plan on doing a retreat between for the week of yule!

That's a nice combo! My friend is also a Leo Sun and Sag rising, I believe. Yes to caving, when the outer world allows it. xo B

You know I LOVE the dark. I do not turn lights on either.. I have a few small lamps with orange low bulbs in them. I am surprised I am not guessing what the H word is 😆.. don't tell me. I want to guess. I ended up with a migraine today and I am blaming it on that. 🤭 it will be swirling around until I guess it. Xoxoxo

Oh, the dark! Such a popular topic of discussion today. I would do better if we just stayed with one time setting or another. I agree that we are in a better place if we inhabit cycles and seasons, but flipping the clocks around doesn't work for me. I'd prefer to keep it at one setting and embrace the days and nights as they come and go. So let's keep it right where it is today. I don't have a preference other than let's make up our mind and stay with it.

Your photos are stunning!

Thanks for sharing.

Exactly, MJ! But, I think they already have a DST date set for the spring. :( This weather is wacky but I guess I shouldn't complain. Soon it will be back to hats and coats. I just realized it's pitch black already! Time to light the candles. Sweet dreams! 😴
