It is a big week.

Though the temperature is cooling down and days are becoming shorter, and less sunlight can make me struggle to stay positive, autumn is the season of metal, which, when healthy, is about connecting with the divine.   This week and weekend are filled with impressive reminders that life itself is divine.  Each breath brings the divine into our lungs.  And how about these brilliant showings of something special:
