Description
A Black woman artist holds the top spots on country music charts and planetary bodies are coming into perfect alignment. Portals do open and things will change. After a week in the car listening to Beyonce's requiem for America, it's the song Just for Fun which sits in Risa's heart this week and offers its medicine. "'Cause time heals everything I don't need anything Hallelujah I pray to her I pray to her" You know those times when you try to do something good — like ready your garden for Spring — or something just for fun — like make music in a new genre — and you are met with so much resistance it breaks your heart or lays your flat out on your back? This week we resist the urge to see it as a sign, and we lean into the thermodynamics of it all instead. Bodies at rest want to stay at rest, systems, genres, and gardens have inertia and push back hard against attempts at change. But time heals everything, and we don't need anything. Just rest, and then another step, and trust that momentum builds. Bodies in motion want to stay in motion. Our gathering magic is a fundamental property of matter and energy in this magical universe. Amy injured herself while trying to build a garden to feed her family and her community, but bolstered by Cayelin and Zoe's Eclipse message that fear can be turned into strength, and Crosby, Stills Nash & Young's Carry On, Amy made a donation to World Central Kitchen and remains undaunted in the cultivation of hope. "A new day, a new way, and new eyes to see the dawn. Carry on, love is coming. Love is coming to us all." https://www.missingwitches.com/rx-carry-on-love-is-coming/
