Glad to have you back! I have missed your posts and poems and perspectives these last few months.

I too have found my eyes drawn skyward in this time, feeling the vast gravitational dance and our motion within it, watching blazing crescent Venus approaching her near point next month.

I never opened an email so fast. So good to hear from you dear friend 💜 I love your thoughts on Venus, I've been having similar feelings about the winter night sky in general and contemplating how our ancestors saw each celestial body as alive with the ability to wander, breathe, feel and die. Knowing our cosmic kin makes me feel more grounded in this chaotic world.

I love your words and the way you share them, Kate, as well as the beautiful Venusian wisdom you have given us. She has been bolstering my spirits lately, too, as I find solace in the vast Sky.

"when the world seems too hard, too fast

too cold, vain, lost to see clearly:

be Venus."

Thank you.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this land in my inbox. I was somehow able to wait to read it until this morning, as I cozied up with my morning beverage.

I am right there with you. I don’t want this hardness. Yesterday I cried feeling the walls that have been built up around my wild heart. Slowly slowly slowly feeling safe enough to crumble.

Thank you Kate. It feels so good to be back with your words.

Thank you for the lighting the way with your ferocious & fiercely soft heart

Here’s to the spiral of softening again and again and again all the way down to the bone.

Sending you all the softest love,

Kat 🐆❤️‍🔥

🥹🕯️☄️ I am so touched by the intentional space you held for this piece. Your reflection is deeply felt… the allowance of crumbling, in the same way that a forest knows exactly how to self-dissolve in order to regenerate. This wisdom is still blazing within us, like Venus shining from deep in the heart caverns… together we can keep reminding each other of this wisdom we carry. I’m so grateful to be connected, dear heart 💝

dear one! you have been in my thoughts often over the past few weeks and I’m so delighted to welcome your heart and your words - a balm, yes! - into my morning light kitchen. a sister reminded me recently of my star family in the dark night sky. I have been out star gazing in the middle of the night these past months. Your words are an affirmation of this beautiful and potent connection. sending you deep love and blessings. you are a gift to this earthlight planet and I am so grateful our paths have crossed!!! ✨💛✨
