Last ditch attempt


 Never heard of the constellation COMA. A cluster of named stars in the sign of Virgo in the northern sky. Bernice, the wife of Ptolemy III cut off all her hair as a sacrifice to Aphrodite for her husband's safe return. For her attempt to garner her husband's safety she was immortalized in the heavens. Also might do with the fact that Ptolemy was one of, if not the first Astrologer. Sometimes we will do almost anything to get what we want, when patience might be a better option.  For me it reminds me not to get antsy in my early pre-retirement stage and jump back into the work force. I still need time to settle and figure out what that next thing is.  Doesn't cutting off all your hair make you vulnerable and weak?

Be Well

 My thoughts today are with a friend that is undergoing a major surgery, one that impacts her life. Sending healing energy and loving though...
