Maria, I’m amazed and grateful how your posts seem to pinpoint something I’m going through or contemplating (or struggling with!) Thank you for being here…what you’re doing does make a difference.

Thank you for including the Libra Sun, an oblique reminder that the Sun's sign is also planet Earth's sign. Which we don't think of often enough. I appreciate your work, Maria!

Thank you for pointing this out, Susan! It seems imperative that in order to achieve a Libranesque harmony/justice/beauty here on Earth, we must correct the over muscled Aries individual archetype.

One of the lessons of my life, as you know.

Mine as well!! With an Aries moon in the 6th house, I can make daily chores into a competition 🤣

I always value your honesty, Maria, and I look forward to your posts, both written and audio. Your invitation to ask "what any of those things we are so busy with mean to us, and if they will mean anything to future inhabitants of Earth," is refreshing. To communicate with and take action for the descendents is an aspect of our potential that not many in our culture cultivate. You are building the capacity for that, and modelling it. I'm inspired by your example.

This resonated deeply with me because I too have been questioning the most important change I made in my life 15 years ago. I lost my way the last few years, bearing the burden of unresolved family ills. This past week, I realized that I was missing the creative energy and determination that is the root of my lifestyle and thinking.

A recent conversation revolved around legacy challenged my committment.

I am back in the business of a life that mattered.

Thank you Maria!

Thank you for sharing, Sue! Yeah, so many of us have had significant personal work to do, and that takes a lot of energy. I am glad more people are doing healing work in community, and sharing their stories, because it eases the burden (at least in my experience!).

I am grateful you are here 💕

The Cancer haiku resonates with me because I like to try new things.

Yay! May we never stop trying new things 🤩
