In the chaos of life - enjoy this annual end-of-summer holiday weekend in Virgo Transition - highlighted 22 years ago on 9/11.

Here in the city things are quiet with great weather especially for tourists many of whom come to the city to honor the fallen and remember events on 9/11. Very few people realized at the time - or remember - that on September 11, 2001- the weather was perfect - a factor that helped save lives. Had there been a heat wave or storm - as this is the peak of Atlantic storm season - things would have had a far more tragic ending.

We've had enough tragedy and political chaos this year with more to come as humans are restless and quick to anger - mental health showing what has always been - but often ignored in the past because we didn't have the tools to deal with it.

In the early days of Crystalinks I used to blog that end times come out of the blue so even though this is Preparedness Month - fate will show us the way and dictate the final outcome. Preparedness to me this month involves getting masks and whatever else you might need as Covid and flu season are starting. To vaccinate or not to vaccinate that is the question for many. I have no answer for anyone only to go by their lifestyles and guidance. Existing in an algorithm always means that it will find another way to reboot the same issues for dramatic effect as we return to the beginning.
