I've always loved breakfast. Even more
than loving breakfast, itself, I've always loved being able to wake
up to the smell of someone else making it. It's a rarity these days.
I'm the breakfast chef around here. So, it's fairly uncommon to get
to wake up to the smell of already brewed coffee (unless I set the
alarm on the pot to brew before I get up) and breakfast goodies.
However, when I was a kid and would spend the summers with my
grandparents, I always woke up to the aroma of breakfast being
prepared. It's one of my favorite memories. Plus, my Mom used to make
homemade biscuits all the time. When she had cut all the round
biscuits she could out of the dough, then, she would take the
remaining scraps and make what she called a “monster biscuit.” It
was my job to declare what the “monster biscuit” looked like.
Some days it was a dragon. Other mornings a turtle. It was always
different. Always fun. My mother always encouraged and was
subsequently entertained by my imagination. She has a Moon conjunct
Neptune that totally “gets” my Pisces Moon square Neptune in that
regard.
As I got older, I started waking up
before my parents. So, I often made breakfast for them. Ironically,
the feeling, for me, was the same whether I was waking up to someone
making me breakfast or was creating that inviting aroma for someone
else as they woke up. That's just how a Pisces Moon works, I guess.
Which reminds me...
This morning we wake up to the Moon in
Pisces creating a trine with Venus in Cancer (7:18 AM). Not much will
tempt us out of bed...except perhaps the wafting smell of bacon that
lures us into the kitchen. But, oh, is this aspect dreamy! The
entirety of the day is fairly dreamy (and watery, and emotive, and
slippery). It's almost as if we are walking around in a daze. Half
awake. Half asleep. Here, but not here as clarity ebbs and wanes.
Memories float in only to float away again. A song reminds us of
something from long ago and, for a moment, we are there only to turn
around an instant later and feel a million miles away from it again.
At 3:05 PM the Moon is conjunct Neptune
and we are officially swept away. Shore unseen. At 6:29 PM the Moon
squares Mercury in Gemini. Where did the day go? It's dinner time
already? How did we get here? Don't bother trying to make sense of
it. Don't bother wondering how time moves so slowly one minute only
to disappear the next. Don't bother trying to get your ducks in a
row. Let them float. By midnight tonight, the Moon is sextile Pluto.
We are deeply steeped in our inward selves...deeply...what gems will
we find in the depths? The “pull” increases in intensity. Follow
it. Feel what you feel. As if you'll have a choice.
