Happy Fourth of July!

  1. "While yinyang strategy involves many elements, two orientations are most critical. The first is the skillful use of existing resources .... The second is a focus on the importance of yin as background and what is non-present or unseen."
    -- from YinYang, by Robin Wang

    Hmmm. Somebody ought to write a book about that.

    After the Winter's Solstice in December, I have noticed that I can see some movement, some stirring in plants by the first week of January, i.e., yang in the midst of Max Yin. It's the same now, around the 4th of July, two weeks past the Summer Solstice, the garden takes on a rangy, sprawling, "nearly spent" quality (unlike the growing "promise" of Spring), i.e., yin appearing in the midst of Max Yang.

    I feel fortunate to be entertained so easily. Happy Fourth!
