2005-09-26 - 7:23 p.m. Cate told me today that she'd broken up with her partner of four years. It seems to be amicable, but it makes me sad. The end of a relationship that seemed so solid and deep feels like something dying. I think I want to grieve over it a bit. I drew some tarot cards last night for my week ahead, and was a bit puzzled by the outlook of pain, unhappiness and betrayal of trust (9 of Swords and 2 of Cups, reversed) - it wasn't the best outlook for the week ahead. Now, hoever, I have a feeling the reading wasn't referring to me, but to myself coming into contact with Cate's experiences. Which is a relief, in a way - I wasn't looking forward to a week of disillusionment and pain - although I'm not particularly enjoying experiencing it vicariously. Can you get any more 2 of Cups reversed than a broken relationship? I don't think so. Nanci Griffith has a really strange voice, and sounds very 80s, but I still like her. She's childhood nostalgia. And I've just been listening to snippets of Alison Krauss, which I'm enjoying enormously - excellent fiddling and a gorgeous voice. A couple of CDs are now on hold at the library. I'm going to eat sausages and raise my glass to connections, friendships, and relationships. May they break and reform to give us each our tangled circle of loves.
