Venus passes between Earth and the Sun 5 times every 8 years, and those 5 points trace a near-perfect pentagram.
8 Earth years ≈ 13 Venus years. 5, 8, 13: consecutive Fibonacci numbers.
The pentagram is built on the golden ratio. The Maya tracked this cycle in the Dresden Codex.
The planet of beauty draws the proportion of beauty.

#Hecate, Queen of Witches, Goddess of the Crossroads, is closely associated with her sacred dogs which herald her arrival at the crossroads by barking or howling.
They are depicted as black, and belonging to the Ancient Greek #Molossus breed.
The dogs are symbols of loyalty and protecters for those traveling at night or those seeking guidance in liminal spaces.

57 years ago today, Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Fortunate Son" was released as a single.
Yes - my grandmother used to make them for us - English ancestry - I didn’t realise till I moved here that all her cooking was English - not American! As Americans we did mince and pumpkin pies and I always did kahlua cake - and tons of biscuits - why thank you! 😘

A great way to see Van Gogh's "Starry Night" is to stare at the center of the spiral for 20 seconds and then look at the painting.

"I'm an introvert.. I love being by myself, love being outdoors, love taking a long walk with my dogs and looking at the trees, flowers, the sky."

CITIZEN KANE (1941) gave cinema one of its most jaw-dropping tracking shots, gliding through space with a fluidity that still feels astonishing 85 years later. Technology has evolved beyond recognition, but the sheer ingenuity of this shot remains untouchable.
