Each of us incredibly unique. Myriad ways of perceiving the world, so many different ideas about what we should be doing. Awesome diversity of voices and philosophies. An infinite number of realities, trying to relate to each other. It's a wonder we can communicate with each other at all.
And yet, for all your absolute uniqueness, for all your special You-ness, everything about you is a combination of the same universal qualities that we are all made of. You have a mind and an intelligence and so do I. You have a heart that wants to share love, and so do I. You have your talents, your history, your dreams. So do I, along with every person who walks this earth. Completely unique, we are at the same time essentially the same. Like a diamond with different facets, cut differently, we are made of the same stuff. If there is God in you, there is God in everyone. If there is fear in you, so is there fear in me.
Venus and Uranus are joined in the sky, celebrating the great paradox that we are completely unique, and fundamentally the same. We are separate and totally connected. The art of life is knowing and appreciating the difference.
