"One day I was living silently in a personal hell, without anyone to tell what I felt, without even knowing that the feelings I had were possible to have; and then one day I was not living like that at all. I had begun to see the past like this: there is a line; you can draw it yourself, or sometimes it gets drawn for you; either way, there it is, your past, a collection of people you used to be and things you used to do. Your past is the person you no longer are, the situations you are no longer in."
- Jamaica Kincaid

Memory is not an instrument for exploring the past but its theatre.
It is the medium of past experience, as the ground is the medium in which dead cities lie interred.

Walter Benjamin-- Excavation and Memory, 1932

The Full Storm Moon in Taurus during the early morning of March 23 (complemented by a partial lunar eclipse only minutes before) encourages us to look within ourselves and heal any emotional tumult that may be weathering us... Both past and present.
We have all been experiencing much inconsistency in moods and temperament, and rightfully so-- This is a time of drastic change which will ultimately lead to the healing of old wounds... If we have the patience and perseverance to delve deep into our conscious and subconscious tempests. The reliving of former sufferings at this time is only to strengthen us. If we are able to be honest with ourselves and truly examine where we are weak and troubled... Negating denial, avoidance of reality, playing the victim, deception of self, (and so forth).
If we practice gratitude and self-reflection methods everyday-- every moment it is necessary-- Paying careful attention to avoid regressing into self-destructive behaviors... We will truly be able to make a worthwhile transformation and finally set calm to our storms.

"Dreams of flying signifies a move towards independence; leaving home or friends; success.
Also leaving things behind, rising above, or finding a way of escaping the difficulties of a former life.
It is a way we move beyond the limitations of any one locality. It is the power of the mind to move along and learn from or experience these many states of being. It offers a much wider or inclusive view of where you are, or where you are going, in life."
