This equinox lead up has been a melting pot of fiery sunsets, a huge and glimmering moon for three nights, and an unhealthy dose of insomnia.

May you find balance in your life, on this day when light equals dark. Feel the joy of the spring’s return, as a warm glow inside.

In equal measure
Equal; key term here.
The key that turns
The lock that grinds then gives
Under pressure
Of will, skill… Continue Reading “Holding Pattern”
