The Hadley mountain pics/vids were taken before I left, which is why there are leaves still on trees.

The weekend begins with warnings about military disasters and the spillover effects getting into one’s domestic life (Mars retrograde, waning moon, Earth). Midweek is eventful, with crossovers and a pair of (unrelated?) alignments involving domestic turmoil (Jupiter retrograde, waning moon, earth) and the very definition of “get lucky” (Mercury, Venus, Sun). Hmmm. Scorpio’s fortune begins to pass on to Sagittarius, with Venus crossing over on Wednesday and Mercury following it on Thursday. The back half of the week is astrally unimportant.

November is a great time for a mountain stream bath, because the water hasn’t gotten all solid yet.
