...beyond what?

....beyond meaninglessness---into becoming a "meaning maker." An astrological guide is simply something that helps you see patterns unfolding in your life, and a way for you to see yourself as part of the larger cosmos.
Most important, however, is to find ways that help you sense that your life has meaning and that we live in a meaningful universe.
I believe there are ways to do that. The articles that are on this blog will be thoughts about that process of meaning-making and deep connection to the Self. I invite your comments.
For today, here's a thought by mary Oliver:
"Ten times a day something happens to me like this--some strengthening throb of amazement---some good sweet empathic ping and swell. This is the first, the wildest and the wisest thing I know: that the soul exists and is built entirely out of attentiveness."
Oh, I can't help it! I have to add one more favorite quote, that was such a sweet surprise when I came across it:
"There is nothing more truly artistic than to love people."
Vincent Van Gogh
