Josef Neugebauer Stillleben mit einer Uhr (‘Still Life with a Clock’) 1873 {{PD}}
Black Moon Lilith sextiles Zeus and both inconjunct Chiron in a Finger of God; there’s also a Grand Water Trine that hooks into the Finger through Chiron (the other points are Venus and Saturn), making for an interesting possible effect: by standing up for ourselves and facing what we might otherwise avoid, and at the same time pursuing goals, we may end up healing some long-held wounds–and this, in turn, creates a Love-filled, rewarding, or prosperous reality. That sounds good.
Today’s image is a clock, the glass-covered face of which is unreadable in the glaring sun. What happens to our consciousness, and our perceptions, when we throw away the clock? If you can, go for a day without reference to time; you’ll almost certainly tune in more closely to your body, to the environment, and to your own needs. This image could alternatively suggest for some that though one may need to know ‘what time it is’, there is an inability to determine just how ‘late’ it actually is–the only option may be to do the best one can, without reference to timetables, schedules, or deadlines.

Julie, Once again (many more than just this once) your words enlighten, support, validate. Wishing you a wonderful last day of July. I am becoming a meditator. Trying to do two 25 minute sessions each day, but it is not there yet. I saw your post mentioning the deficit consciousness in the group meditation at 6 p.m., but somehow missed the original on this group. Whether or not I am in synch with the group, I am putting in meditative energy to your collective. Many thanks, Julie
Thank you, Julie! I think meditation is a real challenge for ‘doers’–who can sit still for very long? That’s why I only suggested five minutes in contributing to the Cloud (this was all in ECLIPSE, for those who’re wondering what we’re talking about). I’ve become convinced that no specific amount of time is needed, just the commitment of doing it, whether one is visualizing the Cloud energy or not–and I feel the same way about the effects for the individual, that the same benefit can be achieved in 5 minutes or 500. For some a longer session offers a time of conscious tranquility that renews–which is the point of it all, I think–or maybe I want it all too quickly: ‘Serenity now!’
