weekly scorpio

It’s been a couple of months of deep inner soul searching, getting at the core of your issues, much of it all by yourself. There’s nothing more scary than going into the dark alone, but after all, it’s what you do best. You can say you really dislike it, and that you prefer to be with a companion on a mission like this, but it isn’t possible to face the darkness when someone else’s light is changing the way the darkness appears. You’re here for a reason. Mercury completes his retrograde journey this week in the same conjunction with Pluto that began the whole thing. You have come full circle. Now all you have to do is admit it to yourself.

The light you’re seeking is within you, and if you don’t recognize it all the searching in the world will turn up nothing

impact of opium


AK Kimoto had immense talent but his humble nature prevented him from trumpeting his insights. He spent considerable time in Badakhshan, Afghanistan, documenting the impact of opium production and addiction. In this way he photographed parents administering opium smoke into their children’s noses to dull the pangs of hunger. JW Delano

After years of civil wars, the international community which is always focusing on nearby Darfur, has forgotten Chad and in 2011 the United Nations military forces are going to abandon the country.

weekly scorpio

You experienced something of an explosion in your life prior to the two eclipses that just took place, and though you didn’t know it at the time, that event sent you on an inner journey to the brand new center of you. You were caught off guard, which is never easy, and then the wormhole delivered you to a place you never expected to go, even though just where that is may not be obvious to you yet. No matter what, you’ve been profoundly focused on your own well being and that’s never a bad thing. The Truth is, while you weren’t looking ‘out there’ you were restored to that place in your heart where you can access your most significant feelings. You know what you want and how you feel as you never have before.

From the series: Antartica


From the series: Antartica …And that is what tells us the brilliant blue of the iceberg, the sea under the black sky full of clouds, the incessant wind which stirs a tear from a corner of your eyes, the cliffs of volcanic rock that emerge from the water with violence, the reflecting white of a boundless glacier. The great white continent explains what life could be without us, the land before it knew man.

Fabiano Busdraghi, photographer

Merl Saunders - Wondering Why


Album: Merl Saunders
Label: Fantasy
Year: 1974

hole - Clouds


Rows and flows of angel hair
and ice cream castles in the air
and feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
the dizzy dancing way you feel
as every fairy tale comes real
Ive looked at clouds that way

weekly scorpio

The major relationship upheaval of a couple of weeks ago has disrupted your life in ways you never expected, but you have to admit it’s turning out to be pretty fortunate after all. That total lunar eclipse to your partnership sector may have seemed to change everything, but in truth the shift is only just beginning. Tuesday’s solar eclipse occurs in your communication sector, and is ruled by Saturn, currently transiting your house of hidden agendas. It’s time to start talking, sharing whatever comes up without filter. Sure, it’s not your style, but then that wasn’t exactly getting you where you wanted to go was it? You’re going to be amazed at what one well placed word can do for you. The Jupiter Uranus conjunction marks a major revelation where creative possibilities are concerned. Run with whatever occurs to you.

You’re in charge now.
