Have you ever had a bright blissful moment when you suddenly felt or knew something with clarity that had been beyond imagining? Perhaps you’ve seen something that seemed impossible? Or received kindness or relief from pain when none seemed forthcoming? I have.
Have you ever tried to describe your experience to someone else? I have.
It’s not easy to convey the complicated feelings and thoughts, sometimes worlds and lifetimes that one experiences in the moments of the miraculous.
The picture I present is an example of one such experience. It taught me that one can’t always share the extraordinary, when in making the picture (verbally or visually) it is a pale shadow of the actual event.
I wish you had been there so we could have shared it. I hope you saw it from wherever on the planet you were that evening.
About two weeks ago, Jupiter and Venus were in conjunction in the night sky and it was a spectacular sight for several nights. This particular night they looked like two bright eyes or enormous diamonds set in the deep velvet blue night sky. This is the picture: Please click on it so you can see it full size.
Here is a closer look. It was amazing. These two planets were like beacons. It was lovely. 
Laura,
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely awesome! And I missed it! But because of your kindness I get to experience it vicariously. Thanks for sending it.

I was in Santa Fe - out in the desert where there were no other lights for miles. Stunning. And then the moon was part of it one night - Strange, it was - but why, I don't know.
ReplyDeleteI saw this from my house too. To have the cosmic seem so personal is to find a spot of your own in the universe, maybe.
