It's a cloudy day, so I'll add some dreams.

It's a proper rainy season this year, isn't it?
We say that while looking up at the rainy sky.

A clear, sunny sky is nice, but a cloudy sky also seems to be telling me something.

Suddenly,
"Am I really making progress?"
Thinking that, I opened and looked back at the
100 things I want to do this year that I wrote down at the beginning of the year.

Looking through them from the top,
I was moving forward, little by little, but surely.

That made me happy for some reason.

But halfway through, the pages stopped.

The dreams I intended to write 100 of ended at about 50.

"Ah, that's right."

I couldn't think of any more,
and I had put it off, thinking I'd write them later.
A little disappointing...

Half a year has already passed.

Well, that's fine too.

There are surely dreams I can only think of now.

The scenery that I couldn't have imagined half a year ago,
I should be able to add a little bit of that to my list now.

July 7th, the night of Tanabata.

Neptune in Aries has begun its retrograde.

Neptune is the planet that governs dreams, ideals, and sensibility.

Usually, while softly wrapping things in mist,

it expands the world of imagination, saying, "There's a future like this, too."

But when it goes retrograde, that mist gradually clears away.

What are the dreams I truly want to cherish?
What is the direction I truly want to head in?

It quietly returns that question
to myself.

So, rather than feeling disappointed that I couldn't fill in all 100, let's get excited about the new dreams I can encounter because of who I am now.

There are some views that only become visible precisely because it's a cloudy day.

This is the season when Neptune gently clears away the fog.

Why don't you also,
try finding a little something you 'want to try' in your heart right now?
