If you crossed Coelho with Vonnegut, wrapped it in Botticelli, added a touch of Dumbledore, peppered it with Tommy, and sent it on a Magical Mystery Tour, you'd be dancing on the brink of the world.

Dancing on the Brink of the World is a collaborative work of art. This “Star Waltz” is a glorious blending of art, fiction, astrology, and music for each of the twelve zodiac signs, including:
Dancing on the Brink of the World is a stunning multi-media orchestration that delights the imagination. Through art, music, poetry and story-telling, astrology comes alive—inviting us to contemplate our starry sanctuary through vivid metaphors, sounds and imagery. Evelyn and Sven combined with Steve and Chemystry Set have made a most original contribution that engages heart, mind and soul. Equally creative and authentic, this compelling collection is an illustration of how astrology is expanding, and returning to the wisdom of all the senses.
–Eric Meyers, M.A., author of Between Past & Presence
Astrology is so much more than dry, academic words on a printed page. It's a delight to see the symbols coming alive in Evelyn Terranova's luminous paintings, and speaking straight to our hearts in Sven Eberlein's stories and song lyrics. Then, for dessert, we can bring it right down into the cells of bodies dancing to the planetary rhythms of Chemystry Set, listening as the ancient symbols blossom into modern music. I am very excited to be part of this project. It's time for the astrology world to laugh, to cry, and perhaps — to boogie.

May the light of your soul guide you, May the light of your soul bless the work you do with the secret love and warmth of your heart.
May you see in what you do the beauty of your own soul.
May the sacredness of the work you do bring healing, light & renewal to those who work with you and to those who receive your work.
May the day never burden. May dawn find you awake and alert, approaching your new day with dreams, possibilities and promises.
May evening find you gracious and fulfilled. May you go into the night blessed, sheltered and protected. May your soul calm, console and renew you. ~anam cara~
May you recognize in your life the presence, power and light of your soul.
May you realize that you are never alone that your soul in its brightness and belonging connects you intimately with the rhythm of the universe.
May you realize that the shape of your soul is unique, that you have a special destiny here that behind the facade of life there is something beautiful, good and eternal happening.
May you see your self with the same delight, pride and expectation with which God sees you in every moment.
May the nourishment of the earth be yours, may the clarity of light be yours, may the fluency of the ocean be yours, may the protection of the ancestors be yours.
And so may a slow wind work these words of love around you, an invisible cloak to mind your life.

With Jupiter stationing direct, blessings to you and yours, my friend. :)
