A fledgling great horned owl came to visit this morning! He ran around flapping his wings, taking off for short little flights. I got this photo when he rested for a bit on the lawn. Later I saw mama owl fly by. #birds 🪶

Hawk perched in a tree behind our house looking at me over his shoulder!

Pretty sure. The first bird flew off, and the newcomer stayed. It was the highest part of the tree, and I think it was about establishing who's the most dominant.

Thank you so much, Amanda! They're lovely! I'll enjoy spending some time contemplating what the mean for me at this time! 💖

What beautiful cards! I would love to see if they have a message for me! ✨️💖✨️

#birds #eagles Caught a mini-drama as one eagle decided he wanted the other eagle's perch!

#birds #eagles Just a cell phone photo, but I was glad to capture the moment!

Two eagles - one perched and one taking flight.

#birds #hummingbirds Here's a fun one I took many years ago. It just showed up in my Facebook feed as a prior post (FB is always asking if I want to re-post stuff from the past 🤷‍♀️), so I thought I'd share it here.

#birds #owl An owl triggered one of our Ring cameras by landing next to it, and then stood there and preened for a few minutes!

No thank you. But good luck with your project! 😊

I totally know what you mean! Even when I'm continuing to watch for something, it's disheartening how often it happens when I'm distracted for just a moment!

#birds #photography #baylands This just popped up in my memories from several years ago over on FB. Thought I'd share it here.

That with Moon in Leo (especially in the 10th) I needed to learn to be my own cheerleader. 😊

So nice to log on and see this familiar view from my younger days! (Grew up in Portland, many moons ago.)

Cool. Reminds me of one of mine from a few years ago...

How did you know I was slouching down in my chair?! (Quickly sitting up straight...)

At the core of all religions, and all mysticism, is the awareness that we are all One. Each of us is a focal point of the same all-encompassing being.

Tarot, astrology, and other esoteric ways of knowing all draw on archetypes embedded in our psyches - archetypes that have formed the basis for mythology down through the ages. It's how we pass on our understanding of human nature, and of natural human cycles, from one generation to the next.

I sent a message to the person who announced it being open without invite, but haven't heard back. Perhaps I'll ask again. (The company that runs BlueSky was incorporated a couple of years ago, but I figure that chart is for how the company does rather than the platform.)

Donnalyn 💫 @donnalyn.bsky.social · 28/11/2024

BlueSky became open to everyone (i.e. not needing an invitation) on February 6, 2024. I find it interesting that the Sun, Mercury and Pluto were all in Aquarius (the latter two conjunct), and when Pluto re-entered Aquarius about a week ago, BlueSky membership really took off!

Just trying out a new camera. The remaining roses at a local rose garden were all in advanced stages of decay, but just look at how beautiful and aged rose can become when transformed into a mandala! There's hope for us little old ladies yet! 🙃

It's a dismissal without prejudice to the DOJ re-filing the charges after the temporary immunity of him being in office is over in four years. His attorneys apparently agreed to it, rather than fighting for a permanent dismissal.

Just a suggestion... Take a deep breath, dig deep, and write down how you want to bring your ideals to life during this time. Your transits are giving you a huge opportunity to do so right now!

Glad you like them. My bird photos are not for sale at this point.

Here's a blank chart. The first house of self is in opposition tension with the 7th House of one's spouse. This reflects our innate human nature - tension with a spouse is to be expected, yes? (Tension isn't just conflict, it's also "chemistry"!) We can look at all houses' interplay this way.

Circle divided into 12 segments representing the houses of an astrological chart.

(Con't...) They are archetypal tensions upon which the interplay of our own personal house and planet positions within the zodiac are superimposed.

Donnalyn 💫 @donnalyn.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

A chart with no planets or signs. It's basically understanding the relationships among the houses: for example, how the opposition tension between self and spouse can be at cross purposes with the opposition tension between home and career (or your and your spouse's parents). ...
