Today I pulled the Five of Cups — Yesterday I ran Zoom tech for a remembrance ritual for a friend, a dear sweet man. It was intense and lovely.
Death has been a presence in my life since a young age, as it has been for many. I learned early in life that we all have a beginning, a middle and an end. I learned why the mourning doves in the neighborhood I grew up in were called mourning doves. This knowledge equipped me to better cope with the death of my first wife when she was 33. I was already comfortable with grieving following the death of both my parents when I was in my 20s. Their deaths prepared me to better handle her death and to better help our sons as they went through their grieving processes and together we moved forward.

Letting go — today I am invoking Death ∞ Rebirth. Life literally feeds on death and death literally feeds on life. This is part of the wheel and is how the wheel turns.
