Day 12 ☼ The Age of Aquarius

When the moon is in the Seventh House 
And Jupiter aligns with Mars   
Then peace will guide the planets  
And love will steer the stars   

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius 
Age of Aquarius    
Aquarius!  Aquarius!    

Harmony and understanding  
Sympathy and trust abounding 
No more falsehoods or derisions 
Golden living dreams of visions 
Mystic crystal revelation  
And the mind's true liberation 
Aquarius!  Aquarius!   

When the moon is in the Seventh House 
And Jupiter aligns with Mars   
Then peace will guide the planets  
And love will steer the stars   

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius 
Age of Aquarius    
Aquarius!  Aquarius!

Day 11 ☼ Panoply of Peace

Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.

Buddha

Buddha has it right, I've spent too much precious time staring at others. It's time I lean in toward the voice that whispers within. I must trust myself, my ideas, and my creativity.
