Retirement Day #2424

It’s a big day for the Cosmos: Mardi Gras [aka Fat Tuesday] heralds the onset of Lent, the Lunar New Year welcomes the Fire Horse, a comet [31/Atlas] is passing through our solar system and a rare New Moon Annular [ring-of-fire] Solar Eclipse in Aquarius is rumored to begin an 18 month cycle focused on innovation and social change. We’re talking self-discipline & sacrifice [Lent], combined with rapid, transformative change and creative energy as Aquarius’s innovative, forward-thinking nature ignites the fiery, independent and dynamic power of the Fire Horse.

In a world already crazy, tighten your girth and hold onto your ponies -  I just saw smoke curl out of StarBucks’s nose.

Yeehaw!
