2020 has been the darkest night, of a very dark year. Somehow, we made it. There appears to be no respite in sight, so we must make time for more...0 Spiritual succor. Light a candle, flashlight, lantern, firepit, etc., to defy the dark, and let our neighbors know we are with them. Immediately after the lighting, people can look up and see the very rare conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter. There light, so close together, has been known as the Christmas Star; hasn't been like this since 1226. I can send a press release if you send me an address. Thank you!
