I was taking some things out to the compost before our guests arrive and through the bank of trees I heard music. Now, I have heard music through the woods before, having once been the near victim of faery abduction, so every time I hear a tune of unknown origin I have to stop and listen. 

Trees create a natural filter for noise and the way the ravine dips in our neighborhood creates an odd kind of distortion with echoes bouncing back on each other before it reaches the person on the other side, so parts of this song seemed familiar and parts of them did not. 

Notes were like short-long-short, low-high-mid. But I knew I’d heard it before somewhere because it was a very distinctive sting. 

And that’s when the lyrics started and I realized that the neighbors across the crick were playing “Come on, Eileen.”

All helpful self care. worth to save.

Self-care is any activity that we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional, and physical health. Although it’s a simple concept in theory, it’s something we very often overlook. Good self-care is key to improved mood and reduced anxiety.

I really feel this!

Palmistry

🖐 🖐 🖐 🖐

*sorry I only did one minor line (marriage line)*

Palms

* For females, the right hand is what you're born with, and left is what you've accumulated throughout your life.

* For males, The left hand is what you're born with, and the right is what you've accumulated throughout your life.

* Another way would be you can choose whichever hand is dominant to be your present/past life hand (the non-dominant hand would then be your future life hand)

* Earth - broad, square palms and fingers, thick or coarse skin, and ruddy color; length of the palm equals length of fingers

* Solid values and energy, sometimes stubborn

* Practical and responsible, sometimes materialistic

* Work with their hands, comfortable with the tangible

* Air - square or rectangular palms with long fingers and sometimes protruding knuckles, low-set thumbs, and dry skin; length of the palm less than length of fingers

* Sociable, talkative and witty

* Can be shallow, spiteful and cold

* Comfortable with the mental and the intangible

* Does things in different and radical ways

Hand Mounts

* That's what the fleshy bit below your fingers are called, on the opposite side of your knuckle.

* To make them visible, cup your hand just a bit.

* A high Venus mount (the one under your thumb) indicates a predisposition for hedonism, promiscuity, and the need for instant gratification. A non-existent Venus mount indicates little interest in family matters.

* The mount under your index finger is called the Jupiter mount. If this is well-developed, it means you are dominant, possibly self-centered, and aggressive. A lack of one means you lack confidence.

* Under your middle finger is the Saturn mount. A high mount shows you're stubborn, cynical, and prone to depression. If it is low, it's an indicator of superficiality and disorganization.

* The Sun mount is under your ring finger. You're quick-tempered, extravagant, and prideful if you have a high Sun mount. A low Sun mount means you lack imagination.

* The Mercury mount is under your pinkie. If it's protruding, you talk too much. A low mount means the opposite -- you're shy.

Heart Line

* This line can be read in either direction (from the pinkie finger to the index finger or vice versa) depending on the tradition being followed.

* If the two lines running parallel with different lengths, you are easy to fall into love-triangle situations.
