A focus on the good things in nature will enrich life. This is a springboard for appreciation for natural science. That is a good balance to electronics and non-human entities. New Moon Phase
  • September 22: An equal balance between light and dark hours happens today. This inspires a quest for ideal harmony and summons courage as we move towards winter in the Northern Hemisphere. Autumnal Equinox
  • September 24-29: An active super nature comes by active ESP or vivid dreams. Magical methods are big players and special fantasy features emerge.
