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.
