So this happened.

Solstice 2022 with my sister’s family.

With my sister’s ashes. With my sister’s lingering presence.

Shell Beach on the Sonoma Coast.

Some powerful interactions, moments, insights, like this one:

My brother-in-law buried his portion of her ashes. Turns out (we realized later) he’s a Virgo — earth sign.

My nephew scattered the ashes he held to the breeze. He’s a Gemini — air. Hmm.
