birthday markers
July is the birth month for one of us in wonder | wonder | women and this holds a special place for our family here at wonder | wander | world.
It is an added boon that the Cancer New Moon is the most fertile Moon of the astrological year. The Mother Moon, the birthing Moon, the caretaker of the Soul. This New Moon in Cancer considers the family first — not just blood family but our tribe of like-hearted people.
The seeds we plant hold our intention for what makes a good, secure, sustainable, loving life and community. As it seeds a renewed vision of our culture, one that allows what is dying to die — so can Mother Moon birth the new collective life the world needs and deserves.
A society that takes care of our community as extended family.
As I turn 65, it’s a great time to review highlights and benchmarks through the years — personal and collectively. Fifteen years in the US. Over a decade in my current neighborhood. All the continuing education unfolding for a lifelong learner.
The constant surprises — changes or challenges, growth and expansion, discoveries to recoveries — are just like Forest Gump’s lovely box of chocolates. They ensure us that life is truly yummy!
