In this week's episode, we look at the super-lunar 4 of Cups, where the moon presides over the final decan of Cancer, waning and waxing to the full.  A high tide of luxury washes into shore, amplified and reflected by its silver mirror.  Yet there are also "seeds of decay in the fruit of pleasure" - the grit that causes the pearl to form, layer by layer. Here we consider blue nuns and vehicles of conveyance, emotional peaks and troughs, the sea as nurturer and destroyer.  We consider First World Problems, and the contest of dissatisfaction and adequacy.  We consider crabs and camels, lotuses and waves.  And we wonder, some of us not for the first time, what on earth a 'celhafe' could be.
