Kingston 12/31 ANOTHER YEAR and we live to tell the story. What was yours about? Was it different than so many others, or will it, too, blend into the landscape of history, barely to be remembered? It's interesting -- most people are only conscious of the passage of time when the year changes and on their birthday. We reserve just two days a year to respect our most precious resource, time on the Earth. Astrology is the study of time: the shape of time, the theme of time, the correspondence between events, time and symbols. Astrology is about the search for meaning and understanding, and it's also a potent tool for visioning our lives and assessing our place in the world. Astrology has an odd way of being part of the culture (tonight, 55 million returns come back, if you type that one word into Google) but also standing apart from the culture (most people don't take it seriously). At Planet Waves, we take it seriously, and we stand out from the 55 million. I am here today to thank the thousands of people who support this website through your subscriptions, memberships and product purchases. I know we are doing something different here, and you are helping us make it happen. Your contributions are an investment in a project that is designed for the long-haul, the journey through time. Each person who purchases a membership covers the costs of about 10 who do not, and that means your participation is vital. Currently about 40 people from more than a dozen nations contribute to Planet Waves. We are in truth a global project, serving the world as best we can in a time of profound transition. Thank you for being part of this. It's good to be with you. Please -- have a safe and sane holiday. Yours & truly,
