'I am interested only in expressing basic human emotions – tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on.' - Mark Rothko, born #OnThisDay in 1903

Amazing perception of the human spirit, methinks.

My September Horoscope

Cancer the Crab

September invites us to slow down just enough to notice what really matters. The 10th is a big day: Venus moves into Scorpio, bringing the honesty and courage to deepen relationships; Mercury enters Libra, encouraging meaningful conversations; and changemaker Uranus turns retrograde in Gemini, enabling us to review and reflect. By the time we reach the Equinox, having questioned old assumptions and gained faith in our insights, we'll have the power to reshape the future.

Almost the end of August

Drought conditions in the UK right now, apparently. 

Hopefully a bit of rain will fall before we arrive. 

So many deaths around me, recently.
