As long as we're breathing, we won't be leaving

For months I have been looking forward to the four-hundred-year great conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn, but the sky is as mottled with cloud as blue agate and looks unlikely to clear by evening. I am reminding myself that the planets dance whether I can see them changing partners or not, the sun returns whether it is a bright short day or a grey one, without my observation stars go nova and are born. Happy solstice! Whether it is the beginning of a new age or the last of an old year, let's keep being here to witness the light.

Cloudy here too, but I'm looking forward to (hopefully) catching them as they wave goodbye to one another over the next day or two.

Here for witnessing the light, for sure.

I hope you do! We'll be looking, too.
