Today we see the Moon continue its descent into Taurus, reaching its lowest point on the horizon in its sidereal rhythm. Sidereal comes from sidus, meaning star, and the word consider once meant to consult with the stars. This reflects the ancient world’s intimate relationship with the glimmering heavens, long before the Industrial Revolution drew people into cities and away from the night sky. Our connection to the stars and the wider cosmos was once inherent in our culture and carried in our hearts. Today, a conscious effort is needed to reconnect with the stars — to remember the vastness of space, its beauty and majesty, and to rediscover the Earth as our shared home within it.
