The 11th hour is ruled by the Moon after the Sun sets on a Wednesday. It's said to be 'auspicious to speak to dream-interpreters and healers of the heart.'

Ali A Olomi translates al-Isfahani and adds how dream interpretation may transmute heart illnesses of envies, hatreds, fears.

—Andalus—

Andalus’s gardens
unveil bridal beauty
and sweet breath.

Its mornings glint
teeth-white,
its sunset dark as lips.

The east wind wafts in
and I cry out—
my longing for Andalus.

—Ibn Khafāja (Valencia, d. 1139)

they uncovered a mass grave in Gaza where children had their hands zip tied before being executed so naturally our entire media machine is working overdrive to make this all about campus protests

The massive faculty walkout at Columbia right now in solidarity with the student protesters is incredible. Faculty everywhere should follow suit.

They are more upset about college students protesting a genocide than a population of millions being starved to death.

I've always wanted to know more about my Moon in the bounds of Jupiter given my Ascendant is in tropical Cancer. Great translation!

Gestures to the soul's inclination are fascinating to me because they get to the quiddity of us: what is inherent to each of us in particular?

Absolutely groundbreaking work, I feel I say that every time, but truly wow the scholarship is 🤯, this ongoing series on the terms/bounds is going to be one of my favorites of all time I can tell already by this first entry.

Each of the zodiac are further divided into five segments known as Egyptian Terms. These bounds are likely Babylonian in origin and have specific interpretations. When the Moon is in a bound it inclines to soul.
