VisionariesLab shares space with the Pic
du Midi Observatory in the French Pyrenees. And while
they don't yet know I have taken up residence in the
basement, I am soon to let them
know : ). It is a great spot to survey the world,
contemplate the heavens and be reminded we are not
"flatlanders."
There was a time when belief systems
were so limited, i.e., the capacity to process the
unknown was so limited, that visioning beyond the
horizon was impossible. VisionariesLab recognizes the
Unknown to be the source of all solutions, the
place of everything of interest and a perspective that
reminds us that the Unknown is our greatest ally.
While there are a number of reasons I
love this photo, one includes the fact that the
observatory appears to be voyaging across the top of
the world. Not only is
this photo an awesome vantage of the Pic du Midi
Observatory with the La Mongie ski
resort in the foreground and the distant glow
of urban areas in
southern France
and
Spain on the horizon, it also showcases
the constellations of Orion and Gemini with a bright planet
Mars very near the top edge, left of center.
Having an extensive background as a
sailor and past owner of a large diesel pusher
motor
home, Pic du Midi seems to wrap them both up as one,
i.e., a land yacht" cutting through the
mountain tops of the world, not so different from a yacht moving through the water
with the attendant bow and quarter wave.
Try to be discrete (for the time
being) if you wish to come by to
say hello.
Wishing you well.
Namaste
