Gemini New Moon, June 15 – The Things That Remain, my new post at The Polymath, is not an ordinary astrology post.

It starts with real every day life things, a song – The Irish Goodbye by Bernard Butler – conversations, a exhibition – Sentimento Monocromático (Monocromatic Feeling) by Gustavo Sanches de Castro, a poem – Na Spailpíní Fánacha (The Wandering Spailpín) read by Ian Duhig – a radio show – RTE Arena 100 – to arrive to what, for me, endures.

There’s pigeons, swings, sliders, ice creams, conversations too. You can read the full post here.

Why Sessions at The Listening Room HQ Matter

Flora Bowley – I Will Stand By You

Why Sessions at The Listening Room HQ Matter. Reading can open a door, but insight needs a place to live. The Listening Room HQ – my men’s practice – sessions offer men a rare space to speak freely and discover clarity through deep, attentive listening. You can book a session at: https://www.thelisteningroomhq.com/p/sessions.html
