Admittedly, this seems to have been dormant as of late. Perhaps because of winter and being more sedentary, perhaps because of the positioning of the planets in my chart, perhaps because I’ve been in judgement of and resistance to conditions of my life and/or perhaps because I’ve been in impatience of reaping “the fruits of my labor” after a transitional and often grueling 10 year period.

I’m reflecting on this as a result of what happened yesterday morning. I hired a new handyman and, after greeting me with a big smile, upon entering, he took notice of the art highly praising it and asking if I was a collector. I said yes and also I am an artist and what he was looking at was my art. We diverged quickly from the list of items that needed fixing and engaged in a conversation about art, music and the topic of salons. Turns out his partner organizes monthly salons for musicians and artists and, unexpectedly, I readily received an invitation for this weekend. So, in addition to getting my place in tip top shape, I was offered an opportunity to widen my network. Very cool, and I feel grateful.
