When the dust settles, it is the divine light of the Star that
        elevates us up and out of the rubble. The  Star  bears  the
        gifts of inspiration and the promise of a better tomorrow.
         When our trip seems to be going smoothly, and we see the
        sky as cloudless, that is when our journey takes us to the
        Moon.

        The light of the Moon reflects our anxieties and illusions; it
        reveals the shadow self that we try to suppress. The Moon
        encourages us to remove the mask that conceals our inner
        nature,  and  not  only  confront  our  true  self,  but  also  to
        allow our shadow moments some freedom.

        We awake to a rising Sun that revitalizes the soul with its
        radiating warmth and comforting glow. It is in the brilliant
        light  of  the  Sun  that  we  dare  to  stand  center  stage,
         allowing ourselves to be seen.


        As the journey enters its final leg, we must face Judgment.
        It  is  during  this  encounter  that  we  are  called  to  reflect
        upon  our  lives,  to  honor  our  history  as  a  whole  story,  a
        complete account compiled of the good, the bad, and yes,
        the  times  we  wish  we  could  do-over.  Combining  our
        experiences create a comprehensive picture of who we are,
        not solely as a human being, but as a spiritual being. To
        advance,  we  must  accept  ourselves  as  a  whole  and  take
        responsibility for who we have become.

        Our trip concludes with the World, and much like the end
