#Mesquite is a common name for some plants in the genus Prosopis, which contains over 40 species of small leguminous trees. They are native to dry areas in the Americas. They have extremely long roots to seek water from very far

[And this is the mesquite that you're running? Whereupon the hulk blinked to life, a robot with the juice switched on. How long do you let this run?]

I harvested mesquite seed pods from the local trees near the ranch. I’ll plant the seeds for the restoration project. I have a nice collection of healthy trees at my home garden so far. Some I’ve bought but most Ive propagated or have grown from seed. It’s almost time to transport them to their forever home. I wonder if I could finish the underground shade room before the year is up. That would be a game changer!

The Nine of Antennae card stands as a testament to resilience and the unwavering spirit in the face of adversity. It portrays a figure who, despite being wearied by life's trials, clings to their defenses, a sentinel guarding their realm. This card embodies themes of endurance, perseverance, and the courage to face challenges head-on. In this light, the Giant Mesquite Bug provides an insightful parallel. These distinctive insects inhabit the arid landscapes of the American Southwest, navigating a harsh environment where sustenance is scarce. Despite their challenges, they embody tenacity, serving as a testament to adaptation. Challenges are an integral part of life. Our resilience can be our greatest asset. The Nine of Antennae encourages us to draw strength from our experiences, to bear our scars with pride, and to stand tall when the odds appear insurmountable. Even in the most challenging landscapes of life, our tenacity and determination can guide us through to brighter horizons.

The Giant Mesquite Bug embodies the wisdom of using nature's offerings to survive and thrive. When threatened, the nymphs unleash noxious chemicals acquired from plants in their surroundings. Their ability to produce these compounds stems from a symbiotic partnership with a species of gut bacteria, underscoring the power of collaboration and mutual support. Additionally, these chemicals also serve as a means of communication. They function as pheromones, guiding these insects to form gatherings or disperse, a reminder that unity is essential for both survival and growth. Just as the Nine of Antennae underscores the idea of seeking help when needed, the bug's reliance on symbiosis teaches us the strength found in alliances and mutual assistance.

Ultimately, this duo teaches us to fortify our defenses in the face of adversity, draw strength from our inner resources, and embrace the power of collaboration. By applying these lessons, we too can weather life's challenges with resilience and emerge stronger, just as this remarkable insect thrives in the harshest of environments through adaptation, resourcefulness, and unity.
