My grandson turned 7 yesterday.  I am 77 today.

I was feeling a little shocked by that number,  but then I read that  “as a repeating sequence or “angel number,” 77 amplifies the core traits of the number 7—intuition, introspection, and a search for higher truth. It signifies that you are aligned with a higher consciousness or divine guidance.

Ah, the wisdom of age.

On my 60th birthday, my brother said: The bright side of getting older is the more candles you have, the more cake you need.

On another note,  I read that Hegseth insisted the historical Eisenhower globe be moved to his office. Usually such a process is overseen by trained curators, but he couldn’t wait, so he had his people move it. They dropped it, and now the globe is cracked and gashed, like the damage this administration does to the planet the globe represents.

The full moon this month is on October 26. The election is November 3rd. I think of these words of Hazrat Inayat Khan:

Full moon, where will you be going from here? – Into a retreat. Why do you take a retreat after fullness? – To make myself an empty vessel in order to be filled again.

May this election lead to the change we want to see and be.
