It’s snowing here today, the first proper snowfall in years. Yesterday it was a mild 8 degrees and sunny. So I thought I would share this weather symbols pattern! Open up the chart image in a new tab for maximum size.

And that’s not all!

Original comic

[daphnedelights]

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone, Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone. Silence the pianos and with muffled drum Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come. Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead, Put crépe bows round the white necks of the public doves, Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves. He was my North, my South, my East and West, My working week and my Sunday rest, My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song, I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong The stars are not wanted now, put out every one; Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun; Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood. For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Funeral Blues, W.H. Auden (via aurelle)

Capricorn Sun and Leo Moon, submitted by a follower

I am the warmth on the cold top of the mountain. Not cold as all Capricorns, not glamorous as a typical Leo. I have double passion for doing things and a strong sense of justice. My challenge is the balance between the past and present, the melancholy and the joy, the child and the ancient inside of the same body. [info on sun and moon signs]
