Dear Lavender,

I am so very happy for your experience! we missed it because of the totally overcast condition... bummer.

*hugs, Cat

I knew that it would be an awesome astronomical experience, but I was wonderfully surprised with the overwhelming spiritual connection. I was taken aback, my heart was so full. The universe is so great and powerful, so astounding. It was such a surreal experience, what a joy!
Thank you for reading!

Such...

a great acrostic. I am not surprised that it was a spiritual experience for you. We had a 97% eclipse here, and the weather was a little overcast. However, there was enough of a break in the cloud cover to see at least the 97% part. I was also struck by the almost religious experience. It is very humbling to realize just how small and insignificant our part in the scheme of the universe really is. I was pleased to see that you were able to communicate this experience so effectively. Well done! ~ Geez.

Hello, Geezer!

Such an experience! The King of the Solar System, the Ruler, and most powerful being in our universe stood like a soldier in a most gentlemanly fashion while the Queen gently ambled herself across the vastness with such grace and elegance. Two devoted lovers, for certain. The gods must be so pleased! And our part in all of it? We just watched - pure magnificence! So humbling. Such an honor. I'm so glad you got to experience a big part of it, too! I am so stoked! :)
Thank you!
