In the Stars?

Although I have been fascinated for years by the moon and the stars, I have never been a believer in the idea of astrology. I do read my horoscope, however, at times. Last week I was told that a person I had not seen in years would come back into my life, someone that I had never had a complete break with. I said to myself, "That will never happen."

About three p.m. though, the phone rang. It was a young friend that I had seen grow up, but whom I had not seen for several years. She was writing a story she hoped to market and wanted my advice. Her mother and I had had an argument a number of years back, therefore, the silence for years.

Our book study group this fall is now reading a book together entitled Goddesses in Every Woman by Bolen. It has been interesting to discover the feminine archetypes and to realize that I am most closely related to Artemis, the goddess of the moon. I take it all with a grain of salt.

I guess it is our human nature that compels us to explore our self-identity throughout our lives. The more we know about who we are the more we can understand ourselves and those around us.
