It is incredible how as soon as a people become subject, it promptly falls into such complete forgetfulness of its freedom that it can hardly be roused to the point of regaining it, obeying so easily and willingly that one is led to say that this people has not so much lost its liberty as won its enslavement.

November 1, 2007
As the days continue to shorten, the sun moves into the sign of the scorpion on October 23rd and stays there 30 days each year. Scorpio is the most intense, passionate, penetrating and ruthless sign of all. It’s rough, following on the heels of sweet Libra, but as Cinderella can attest to, there comes a time when reality must be faced. Now is that time. Leaves fall, reminding us that physical death is the end of the journey here of all living things.
