A Poem.
For the August new moon.
Early morning after midnight.

August new Moon
Flowers are fragrant
The moon waxes and wanes.
Before long
the sounds of cicadas
will cease.
Open the gates
let the moon shine in
–(Basho, Haiku poet, 1690, Edo/Tokyo)

New moon in Leo in the early morning.
2:38am west coast time.
New moon at 23 degrees Leo (1, 5 2 at the heart).
Sun & moon in Leo – the royal sign.
Soul & personality fusing & blending.

We guide, direct, lead & rule under Divine Will (Ray 1).
We speak the truth (Ray 5) of all things.

August is the month of Leo & of Sirius.
Ray 2 flowing into the sign of Leo, into Regulus, into
the the Three Fires of the Sun, into the hearts & minds of humanity.
The Burning Ground. We are sensitive to everything
inside, around, above & below us.
Our Will, Love & Intelligence
are refined in the Burning Ground of the Three Fires.
New Moon tonight. Risa
