Māvamaññetha puññassa, “Na mantaṃ āgamissati.”
Udabindunipātena udakumbhopi pūrati.
Dhīro pūrati puññassa, thokaṃ thokampi ācinaṃ.
Think not lightly of good, saying, “It will not come to me.”
Drop by drop is the water pot filled.
Likewise, the wise one, gathering it little by little,
fills oneself with good.
Dhammapada 9.122
The Dhammapada: The Buddha’s Path of Wisdom, translated from the Pali by Acharya Buddharakkhita
It may be that you are ready to give up on something you’ve been working on for a while because you are not getting the results you hoped for. Instead of turning your back on this thing you’ve invested so much into, look for the lessons in your errors. Though you may be disappointed, it is likely that you’ve learned many things that will contribute to your future success. Perhaps you have failed to learn from past errors and are repeating the same mistakes again. Pay more attention to the results of your efforts so that you can learn and get better at this task.

The use of obscene or taboo language – or swearing, as it’s more commonly known – is often seen as a sign that the speaker lacks vocabulary, cannot express themselves in a less offensive way, or even lacks intelligence.

It has been a busy few weeks here at Wish Knots. I have been busy planning our new range of Aura Crystal Jewellery.
Aura Crystal Necklace
Aura Crystals are natural gems, usually quartz, which are heated in a vacuum. Real gold vapour is added to the vacuum and gold atoms fuse to the quartz, giving it an iridescent sheen. Although they are “man-altered” they are also natural as they are natural crystals, modified using natural materials. Other metals can also be added to the vacuum chamber, such as silver, titanium and copper.
Aside from their beauty, Aura Crystals are worn for their beneficial properties. Aura quartz crystals are known as the’ master healer’ they amplify energy and thought and enhance other crystals if worn together.

Full Moon August 18th 2016: Danger and Opportunity
We see both danger and opportunity in this Leo / Aquarius Full Moon. With Sun at 25 degrees Leo and Moon at 25 Aquarius, both are square to Algol in Taurus. That alone would be enough to give pause. But, a pronounced Thor’s Hammer pattern is present, and that is present with anger and temper and people, places, and things that go Boom!
Here is the FM chart, filtered for the Thor’s Hammer pattern:

A Rosetta pattern is present, telling us that we will need to make allegiances but they will tend to be short-lived and may turn to treachery:
