and now, a word from our sponsor

There can be said to be a beginning and end when one chooses a particular point of time and calls it ‘the beginning, and another point ‘the end’.

Aries Blue Moon revisited

Ah, the Aries Blue Moon gathering on Friday night… it was a lovely time, as it turned out. Sweet rather than worldshaking, connective rather than shattering.
