The first new moon of the year -- which means it is also Chinese New Year -- the year of the Dragon. I don't know what that means, but fortunately, I have friends who do.

Doorways. Go through. Don't look back --that door is closed. All things are new here. Moon-day, bless the mothers and the earth, rock the children gently with those tides, sing us lullabies in the night and wake the world with words of encouragement when morning calls.

Doorways. Here there be dragons as the rabbit returns to her burrow. Go through into a new day. Learn what you will. Do what you can. Be who you are.
