The Moon and Venus Got Cozy!

In my recent concern about the state of our nation, my friend Wilma shared a quote with me that is so true...

"The real issues of life aren't the ones in the national headlines but the ones in our small personal spheres of life." Jan Karon

The illness and resulting death of our dear friend brought this straight home to me. In the past couple of weeks I haven't even thought past our own personal sphere of life. This includes, what I assume, has been big news in the headlines, astrologically speaking.

Moon and Venus got cozy last night!!

Thanks to our up-to-the-minute, astute son-in-law, it was our pleasure to witness the coziness of the moon and Venus. What a revelation!! I don't have a very high-tech camera, nor would I know how to use it if I did, but the picture is my attempt to capture the wonder of nature.

My thanks to Al for keeping us on top of things. It would be pretty dull around here without him.

Psalm 8:1-4 (NIV)

1 O LORD, our Lord,

how majestic is your name in all the earth!

You have set your glory

above the heavens.

2 From the lips of children and infants

you have ordained praise

because of your enemies,

to silence the foe and the avenger.

3 When I consider your heavens,

the work of your fingers,

the moon and the stars,

which you have set in place,

4 what is man that you are mindful of him,

the son of man that you care for him?

Peace to your household...
