The Astrology of the Week Ahead
Science is the art of creating suitable illusions, which the fool believes or argues against, but the wise person enjoys for their beauty, or their ingenuity, without being blind, to the fact that they are human veil and curtains, concealing the darkness of the unknowable. – Carl Gustav Jung
