		<description><![CDATA[Last night, the drive home in a thunderstorm, the sky above dark rosy gray, split by threads of lightning, and in the west the eye of the sun blazing red through the clouds, turning them to carnelian: the fire of the goddess, dangerous, fierce, and fulfilled. Tonight, strong heka: a silver bowl filled with white [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another extraordinary sky this morning, a fleece-soft blanket of orange-rose drawn across half the heavens, patterned in cloud bands and wisps of vapor, shifting later to become the crisp blue clarity of a sunny near-spring day. The snow has already drawn back in places to reveal damp earth and flattened grass, a hint of yielding [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Monday, shoveling my driveway after the season&#8217;s first blizzard, I paused to look up into a sky of the most extraordinary blue, only a couple of shades lighter than lapis. I murmured a prayer to Hethert, the Lady of Heaven. Only a moment or two later, I glanced up again to see a hawk [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today&#8217;s joy was the sudden touch of sunrise light falling on my face &#8212; both the simple beauty of it, and the wonder of its uniqueness. Every morning on the drive to work is different &#8212; sometimes gray, sometimes gold, sometimes silvery pale, sometimes struck with piercing brilliance or with flushes of deep, vivid color [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today was such a beautiful day, I decided to take the back way home. I love that moment when I make the turn from the main road, and suddenly the sky opens up wide above the trees and the roadside weeds. The clouds sit seemingly motionless, suspended in the sky, like some perfect cloud-tableau. I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I was leaving the gym one evening last week, just getting back to my exercise habit after letting it lapse for most of the summer, the sky was an extraordinary spectacle, as if the Gods themselves were in procession, slow-moving sails of cloud-veil against a backdrop of palest blue and gold. And as I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rain all day today, drenching at times, so for the most part I did indoor things: dusting and vacuuming the shrine room, making my weekly offerings, catching up on the House boards and reorganizing my email accounts. A good day, a gentle day &#8212; not the most productive ever, but peaceful. Among other things, I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This morning, before getting in the car to go to work, I paused outside the garage to look up. Above the branches of the pine tree across the road, silhouetted against the gradually lightening sky &#8212; a pale swath of delicate cloud veil and a single star, golden and startlingly bright. Later, during the drive, [...]]]></description>
