Going To Be Messy

OK, so we all know the next several days are going to be messy. Not unlike many planetary configurations we endured in 2020, there are going to be a number of intense aspects occurring this week that, if they occurred all by themselves, would portend a challenge. But piling up on, triggering, and otherwise instigating each other this week, the squares, eclipses, retrogrades, and T-Squares (to name a few) taking place could very easily make the days ahead especially stressful.

Hence I thought we could use a little humor as we greet this morning of a blood moon.

Of course, it’s not exactly light and airy humor. What do you expect? I take my laughs where I can find them. And I found this one last week, outside of the courthouse in Doylestown, the county seat of Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

Messages Everywhere

Last week I was ordered to serve as an arbitrator on a three-attorney panel to hear cases in matters in which disputes are for amounts of $50,000 or less. While this is a service I bear as a member of the bar, I’ve always enjoyed the responsibility and taken it seriously.

My colleagues and I broke for lunch and I took that time to bask in the wispy-clouded, breezy spring weather and strolled into the center of town for a coffee. Walking along the sidewalk, I noticed a white piece of paper amongst some scattered tree detritus. Me being me, I thought, “I wonder what the message is?” The paper looked even from afar as though it might have something hand written upon it that could, indeed, harbor a message I could interpret for shits and giggles.

Yes, well…

Ask and you shall receive, I guess.

Probably Not Arbitration

Something tells me this was not a note passed across the table in a routine arbitration determining the value of injuries in a car accident. No, from my experience, this definitely smacked of a domestic relations case. Probably a support case.

Ah yes. This message took me right back to the good old days of my law practice. It made me laugh when I approached it as a message from Spirit. But the actual tone and intention, and the likelihood it was between two people who used to love each other…

A reminder: things may get messy this week. Let’s try to be kind to ourselves and each other – and keep a sense of humor!
