creative.She transforms into Slender Grasshopper, facing the arch.Stairs intimidate because they take effort, they take time.Grasshopper is patient and waits.The challenges that lie ahead are simply steps toward the

goal, lessons for greater living.

One large hop toward the archway. Friends aid in the blossoming of the idea.The dream will manifest.Wait once more, sitting closer to the arch.Enlightenment is ahead.Change will bring harmony.Grasshopper hears spider whisper,

“It’s your web, weave what you like.”… and grasshopper leaps through the arch.Venus awakens…
