Big weekend ahead, right? Especially Monday. I'm sure you've heard many perspectives from an array of sources about the impact and meanings of this weekend's highly anticipated celestial event; a total solar eclipse with a path of totality crossing the U.S. coast to coast. This hasn't happened in almost 400 years. So, yeah, it's unusual. It's exciting.
I'm an optimistic realist; pragmatic, logical and analytical while simultaneously expecting the best and embracing the most hopeful, magical and pleasurable approach to life. I want our human experience to be chock full of meaning and positive purpose. So something like a total eclipse gets me going. There's the base science (astronomy and astrology) and the wide spectrum of applied meaning and interpretation. Me? I figure we're here on this wild, wacky, wonderful ride. Let's enjoy all we can.
