Retrograde Gate of Descent

March 28, 2025: Venus meets with the moon in Pisces, still in Her retrograde phase.

The tool, the guide, and the gift:

In my hands was a drum. Practice, practice is needed to wield this well.

Across the pool I saw golden hawk’s eyes, big, bright, piercing. Within the pool I saw a golden shimmer.

I reached down, but it was out of reach. I reached, stretched, fell into the pool and dove down, down, down into the inky depths until my hand grasped this golden shimmer. When I climbed back up to the bank, I saw a liquid golden puddle, amorphous. I chose to keep this unformed gold, releasing my necklace back into the pool in exchange.
