Today I inserted the ball of sun yarn and the ball of moon yarn in this crystal ink well.
It had for many years contained only dried red ink.
I washed it well.

This the William Blake Tarot of the Creative Imagination (Revised Edition) Created by Ed Buryn featuring the art and ideas of William Blake.
I first received 00 Eternity followed by 2his of Music - Contraries. The image was lost in the handling.
I tried again and received 00 Eternity followed by XXI Union.
I uploaded this image and found two. Cool.

Cherry blossoms are synonymous with spring in Japan. This girl is swinging into spring in a neighborhood park in Japan.

Cherrystones must be thoroughly cleaned and dried before they can be sewed into pillows for warming your toes on a cold winter's night. First, pile the pits in a large pan — or use your kitchen sink — and cover them completely with fresh, cold water. Then rub and squeeze the stones together to loosen any remaining pulp. When that's done, rinse them and repeat the process several more times.
Once the cherry seeds look clean, simmer them in a pot of water — stirring occasionally — for about 15 minutes, after which you should dump the cooked stones into a sinkful of cold water and rub them again. Then rinse your bed-warmer stuffing a few more times (it's absolutely essential to remove all the pulp) before draining the stones and placing them on clean dish towels to dry. You can finish the dehydration process by spreading the pits in one layer across a shallow pan and baking them in a warm oven. Stir them now and then so they'll dry thoroughly. The pits will be evenly colored when "done", and ready to be stored indefinitely in jars, plastic bags, or paper sacks. (The last are the best choice, because they'll absorb any moisture that may still be present.)

You may be wondering why I didn't take an easier route and use pebbles in my bed-warmer. Well, the truth is that cherry pits have a much lower conductivity and about three times the heat capacity of pebbles. Gravel may warm up fast, but it soon cools off.

It's called the Futuro House, designed by Matti Suuronen in 1968.

From a satellite in an Earth-trailing orbit, the Moon may appear smaller than the Sun.

The Moon is... the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System. It is... a quarter the diameter of Earth and ¹⁄₈₁ its mass. The Moon is the second densest satellite after Io. It is in synchronous rotation with Earth, always showing the same face; the near side is marked with dark volcanic maria among the bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters. It is the brightest object in the sky after the Sun, although its surface is actually very dark, with a similar reflectance to coal. Its prominence in the sky and its regular cycle of phases have since ancient times made the Moon an important cultural influence on language, calendars, art and mythology. The Moon's gravitational influence produces the ocean tides and the minute lengthening of the day. The Moon's current orbital distance, about thirty times the diameter of the Earth, causes it to appear almost the same size in the sky as the Sun, allowing it to cover the Sun nearly precisely in total solar eclipses.
The prevailing hypothesis today is that the Earth–Moon system formed as a result of a giant impact: a Mars-sized body hit the nearly formed proto-Earth, blasting material into orbit around the proto-Earth, which accreted to form the Moon. Giant impacts are thought to have been common in the early Solar System. Computer simulations modelling a giant impact are consistent with measurements of the angular momentum of the Earth–Moon system, and the small size of the lunar core; they also show that most of the Moon came from the impactor, not from the proto-Earth. However, meteorites show that other inner Solar System bodies such as Mars and Vesta have very different oxygen and tungsten isotopic compositions to the Earth, while the Earth and Moon have near-identical isotopic compositions. Post-impact mixing of the vaporized material between the forming Earth and Moon could have equalized their isotopic compositions, although this is debated.
The large amount of energy released in the giant impact event and the subsequent reaccretion of material in Earth orbit would have melted the outer shell of the Earth, forming a magma ocean. The newly formed Moon would also have had its own lunar magma ocean; estimates for its depth range from about 500 km to the entire radius of the Moon.
An exoplanetary system has been discovered in which two planets share the same orbit. Such co-orbital planets are thought to be the origin of the impact that produced the Earth-Moon system because models suggest the collision was low-speed.

Flying Saucer









It was made in the 1680s in France and the design on one side certainly looks like it could be a flying saucer in the clouds over the countryside, said Kenneth E. Bressett of Colorado Springs, Colorado, a former President of the 32,000-member American Numismatic Association and owner of the curious coin. Is it supposed to be a UFO of some sort, or a symbolic representation of the Biblical Ezekiel's wheel? After 50 years of searching, I've heard of only one other example of it, and nothing to explain the unusual design. Bressett said the mysterious piece is not really a coin, but a "jeton," a coin-like educational tool that was commonly used to help people count money, or sometimes used as a money substitute for playing games. It is about the size of a U.S. quarter-dollar and similar to thousands of other jetons with different religious and educational designs that were produced and used in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries. The design on this particular piece could be interpreted as showing either a UFO or Ezekiel's wheel, but little else. Some people think the Old Testament reference to Ezekiel's wheel may actually be a description of a long-ago UFO, he explained.
The legend written in Latin around the rim is also mystifying. 'OPPORTUNUS ADEST' translates as 'It is here at an opportune time.' Is the object in the sky symbolic of needed rainfall, or a Biblical reference or visitors from beyond? We probably will never know for certain, said Bressett.
