The Sky Speaks — An Astrological Story About Bob Weir and the Grateful Dead

Hey everyone. This is Adam Elenbaas from Nightlight Astrology [https://nightlightastrology.com/].

Happy Sunday, everybody. It's a bonus episode today, and I'm going to tell you a story about Bob Weir and the Grateful Dead, a really meaningful encounter that I had with Bob Weir back in 2014, the astrology behind that encounter, and then the next time that Bob Weir would enter my life was when my wife initiated me into the fantastic cult of the Grateful Dead and their music.

Bob Weir recently passed, and in his passage, I have thought a lot about the astrological synchronicity of his appearance in my life and subsequent appearance of the Grateful Dead's music in my life, both beautifully paralleled along astrological timelines that I'm going to tell you the story of today in his memory.

He has been something of a sage mentor to me, though he has no idea and never did. He doesn't know who I am. But this story, I think, illustrates some really beautiful points about astrology itself. And it's just this kind of storytelling that, if you know me, you know I love. So I hope that you'll enjoy this today.

Before we get into it, remember to like and subscribe, share your comments, share your reflections. You can find transcripts of any of these daily talks on the website, that's nightlightastrology.com. No promotions today, because it's a bonus episode. Let me tell you the story.

So in 2014, I'm going to try to present this as carefully as I can. In 2014, I was... we were... my wife and I were engaged to be married, and I was in the process of writing the book that I just finished a couple months ago. The first draft of that book I abandoned in 2014 after I hosted an astrological retreat with the late, great Jeffrey Cornelius in upstate New York.

At that retreat I was writing this book, and he said, "Focus on getting married this year. Get like 10 more years of experience and then write that book." At the time, I didn't like that, because I thought I have a lot of experience already. I've already written a book about ayahuasca. I should write another book while the window's open for me to establish myself as a writer. You know, like all of these reasons that I thought I had to write the book right then and there.

I didn't like that he was saying, "Just wait, let it cook." But I followed his advice, and I stopped writing that book. And I thought, at some point, the muse will lead me back to writing this book. And for some reason, even though I was resistant to Jeffrey's advice, it made sense in my heart eventually.

And as more and more of our year became about planning our wedding in the fall of 2014, that same spring, little did I know that there was a documentary film that was released, and I believe it debuted at a film festival. I don't remember which one, it was in April, same month that I had gotten this advice to table my book. And that was a documentary film about Bob Weir.

And it was really a film that, in many ways, established him as an equally important, but somewhat less seen or known, iconic, front-facing member of the Grateful Dead. If you've ever seen the movie, it's called "The Other One."

And again, it's interesting, because Bob Weir, one of the things that I think stands out about his chart is that he has Saturn in Leo, along with a lot of planets in Scorpio. And in many ways, although he was thought of as the heartthrob of the band, he was never given the same kind of status that Jerry Garcia was while Jerry was alive, for sure.

I mean, I think a lot of Deadheads were pretty sensitive, and that I've met would probably agree. They'd all love all of them. Deadheads are really sensible, interesting, egalitarian people in my experience. But Jerry was definitely like the front-facing Leo of the group. Bob had Saturn in Leo.

And in many ways, that year, that film did a lot within the whole arc of the Grateful Dead story to really show how deeply central and important he was. And I find that really interesting, because as that film was gaining popularity that year, Jupiter went through the sign of Leo.

And my meeting Bob Weir happened to coincide with Jupiter going right over Bob Weir's Saturn, which is interesting, I think again, just in terms of someone maybe being seen a little bit more clearly, where their light was not as seen. That's a very Saturn in Leo archetypal experience that many people have. Not that Bob Weir wasn't famous or anything, but just seeing a bit more of his light clearly, out of the shadow of Jerry, was something that that film really did a nice job of.

So anyway, that's happening in his life that year, and I'm getting this realization that it's not time to write my book, time to just focus on getting married and so on. Well, in November of 2014... well, just prior to that, I was invited to take part in a gifting suite at the American Music Awards.

I was invited to come and do tarot and astrology readings at a gifting suite where people who were attending the American Music Awards, a lot of celebrities, bands, honored guests and so forth, go to these gifting suites. And basically it's a place where they're gifted a bunch of free, expensive stuff. I don't know how else to put it. That's just what it is.

And it's cool, though, insofar as it supports a lot of interesting designers and kind of boutique, interesting brands. And it was cool. It was a little... what's the word? It was very glamorous, and it was a little bougie. It was like very rich stuff happening. But I was very glad to be there and found that a lot of the celebrities that I did work for... all of which, you know, I've only had permission to really talk about one, which was Wyclef, because he allowed me to get my picture taken with him.

Did a reading for Wyclef. That was pretty sweet. He's a very nice person, to me anyway. And a lot of people were really nice. So it was interesting, because I had done some readings for celebrities before, but it certainly changed my view that there's just one simple way that all celebrities are like. Celebrities are just humans. And that was kind of a worthwhile experience.

So I want to show you what was happening in my chart at the AMAs, because backstage at the AMAs... so backstage, I don't know, it's just in like a space that's adjacent to the theater. Anyway, while I was sitting there doing readings at the AMAs in 2014 in late November, I got the dates pretty well located, but I was sitting there doing readings, and Bob Weir came and sat down.

It's like, if I was sitting here, imagine this couch right behind me was like, right up against my back and facing the opposite direction, with the back of his head to the back of my head was Bob Weir. And for about 30 minutes to an hour, while I think it was his wife and daughters, maybe just his wife, I know for sure it was his wife, they were like shopping in the gifting suite and just being offered different things to try and all this stuff.

And he just sat there, and he had this plastic bag of granola, and he was just munching it. And I remember looking over a few times; he just had granola in his beard. I was like, "Who's this guy?" Because I didn't know who he was. And so eventually someone sat down to have a reading with me who was... I'm not going to keep this anonymous, but they were working for him in a capacity. We'll just put it that way.

And she said, "I'm with Bob." And I said, "Who's Bob?" And she chuckled. And I just thought that, you know, I will never forget that, because he could hear me. He was sitting right there. She said, "Bob Weir. He was part of the Grateful Dead." And I was like, "Oh, that's amazing. I go, my wife, my wife is a big Deadhead."

And I was very respectful not to try to talk to him, because we were given very specific instructions as staff in the gifting suite: you do not approach any of the people. If they approach you, that's fine. If they approach you and engage in conversations, it wasn't considered polite to ask for pictures. Some people were doing that anyway, which is weird. It was like watching people trying to eat celebrities. It was... anyway.

So I was very respectful. I did not ask for any pictures from anyone, except for when Wyclef sat with me, someone was taking pictures and it was like a photographer who was there and said, "Can I get a picture of you getting the reading?" and he said, "Yes." And I said, "Do you mind if I get a copy of that?" And he said, "Of course." And I was like, "Thank you." That was the context anyway, whatever. Just trying to make sure I don't want to be one of those vultures.

So I did the reading and just sat there and was taking it in. And I thought of my wife back home, because my wife is a Deadhead. And let me just be honest, I could never get into the Grateful Dead. I tried many times. My wife would be like, "Let me show you this 1972 June..." and I'd be like, "What the hell is that like?" You know? It was so weird to me. It felt like a weird cult that I couldn't understand.

I didn't have any access to it. I even love music. I play guitar. I like a lot of the same bands that were in the same milieu. So why can't I get this? Like, what is the block? And clearly I'm not getting something, because a gazillion people not just love the Grateful Dead, but are worshiping at the Church of the Grateful Dead. Like, what the hell is this? You know what I mean?

But anyway, I knew my wife would be over the moon to hear that I was sitting next to Bob Weir, and she would be tickled to hear that he had granola in his beard and everything else. So I just called her on a bathroom break and I told her, "I'm sitting next to Bob Weir. He's literally got his head like inches from the back of mine, sitting on this couch while I'm doing readings." And she was like, "This is totally ruined on you." She was like, "You have no idea who you're sitting next to." I was like, "No, I don't. But you know, well, I..."

So that moment came and went. Now I want to show you the astrology of that moment, because it's pretty cool. So I was telling you earlier that that year Jupiter was in the sign of Leo. This is Bob Weir's chart. It's a rectified chart with Capricorn rising, but it's just... or it's not rectified, set to noon. Sorry.

Now you'll notice that Saturn is at 20 Leo. Well, Jupiter was at right around 22 Leo. So Jupiter was conjoining his Saturn, right? Well, my ascendant ruler is Venus in Leo, sitting at almost exactly 20 degrees. And so the synastry between my chart is that my ascendant ruler is at the same degree in sign as Bob Weir's Saturn in Leo.

The potential for someone to be a bit of an elder in any capacity is there in synastry when there's such contacts. It is also possible that a person with Saturn synastry to your ascendant ruler could be someone that is sort of like a block, or like sometimes people who are prohibitive or restrictive or harsh will sit as their Saturn sits on your ascendant ruler.

But also, quite frequently, that synastry will show connections between a soul and someone who acts as an elder. It's a Saturnian kind of thing. So first of all, when I got home and I looked at the transits and I looked at his chart back in 2014, even though I wasn't into the Grateful Dead yet, I thought, "Well, that's fascinating."

Jupiter in Leo was on my Venus at the AMAs, which makes sense, right? Jupiter in Leo transiting my natal Venus. I go do readings at the American Music Awards for like celebs in the arts. But it was also on his Saturn around the same time, all within three degrees at the same time during a year in which a documentary was really shining light on him as "the other one" next to Jerry Garcia.

Doesn't that make sense for Jupiter on Saturn? It's a beautiful symbolism. So simple. Alright? So that was the connection. At the time, I really tried to get into the Grateful Dead again. I gave it a go. Didn't work. Couldn't happen. In the meantime, I tried to start writing my book again, and I couldn't do it. It just wasn't happening.

So I want to take you forward in time. I think this is so interesting. Now I'm going to show you an astrological transit that was taking place in 2023 when my next connection, my next meaningful connection with Bob Weir and the Grateful Dead took place. And I want to show you the sort of astrological synchronicity. These are so magical.

And I have some things I'll say about them afterward, because it's not just a "ooh, cool synchronicity," but there's some real takeaways here that I want to share once we get there. So in 2023, in the spring of 2023, I caught wind of the fact that Grateful Dead... Grateful Dead and Company was going to... they were on their final tour.

Now, subsequently, they ended up doing a few runs at the Sphere and one final show in Golden Gate Park, but this was their last big tour. And I heard about it, and I was like, "Oh, there's Bob Weir again. That's funny." And so let me show you what was happening in Bob Weir's chart in the spring of 2023 as they were launching into their final tour.

Uranus was squaring Saturn in his chart. I find that so interesting because that's for someone who's reaching, in a sense, the beginning of the end of their legacy as a heralded musician who, over some recent time, has also stepped forward as the front person of the band in a way that previously, when Jerry Garcia was alive, they really didn't.

It's a very Uranus thing. The whole thing speaks to an arc that's very Saturn in Leo. But anyway, apart from that piece, again, here's a transit in Uranus and Taurus activating that Saturn. At the end of a long legacy, the pattern's changing. Something long established and held is beginning to loosen.

And it would just be within three years later that he would pass in early 2026 here, less than three years. So you can feel it. This is the end of a kind of legacy and a pattern that's loosening and releasing. So Uranus was squaring his Saturn as the final tour was coming to pass.

Now, at the same exact time that Uranus transiting in the sky was squaring my natal Venus in Leo, same exact contact between my chart and his, obviously. And again, I'm not trying to make any grandiose claims here. I'm not at all. It's just the conclusions are actually quite simple, but I think no less profound.

So anyway, in May of 2023 when I caught wind of that, something in me said, "I'm going to give it one last try. I'm going to try to get into the Grateful Dead." And I really tried. It just was landing kinda... it was like a door was starting to open, but I knew that my wife really wanted to see them before that tour ended.

And it was, and she knew that the only limit for her doing that was really like her husband's reluctance, because he's not so into it. And she doesn't have any girlfriends who are into the Grateful Dead who would want to go since she was like 20, you know? So what to do? And we were scheduling our very first vacation together alone since the kids were born.

Very Uranus squaring my natal Venus, like, "Hey, let's get back to our married life a little bit," you know, awakening that romantic spark that can get a little tamped down when you're in the long tunnel of early child-rearing. So anyhow, I said to her, "Well, what if, for our first vacation away from the kids, for my birthday, we go to the final concerts from Dead and Company at Oracle Park in San Francisco?"

She was over the moon, and she was so touched that, you know, for my birthday, I would choose to go do something that was really for her. But I said to her, "You know why it's going to be a gift for me? Because it means so much to you. And maybe everyone says that you have to see a live show to really get it. And I'm trying here, but I'm not quite connecting. So maybe if we go see a live show... but either way, it'll make me so happy that you're happy. It'll be so much fun. For my birthday, we'll be out of town, we'll be away from the kids, like it'll be great. Let's go."

So we went to those final shows in San Francisco, that final weekend, which was my birthday weekend in July of 2023. Uranus was exactly squaring my natal Venus at the same degree that Jupiter had been conjoined in Leo back in 2014 when I met him, sort of sat next to him. And Uranus was squaring his Saturn in the final show.

I want to also mention that in that month of July 2023, Venus turned retrograde in Leo and came right over his Saturn and right over my natal Venus at the same time as the final tour completed. Really interesting, right? So, first show, first night, this is my experience. Now, remember, Uranus is squaring my natal Venus, and I'm seeing Bob on the stage and having these memories of sitting right next to him.

And okay, here's the thing is, I'm a sober person. I struggled with some drug addiction in my 20s, so I am very selective even about having a drink. But something in me was like, you know, people might be like, "Well, you did ayahuasca for like 10 years, doesn't that kind of make you a druggie?" Well, you know, kind of, but not really, because it's a very intense meditative ritual that's very healing and not something you do for fun anyway.

But recreational use of things like marijuana or mushrooms really has not played a role in my adult life very much since ayahuasca came in. And I have no judgments. It's just that's where my psyche is at. So anyway, but I was like, everyone was smoking. Half the people looked like they were tripping. I was like, "Well, when in Rome." And so this guy offered me some of his joint. I partook, and the door opened.

Maybe... I don't believe that you have to be high to get the Grateful Dead, because there are many people, including people who meet for sober 12-step programs during the middle of set breaks of Grateful Dead. So don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you have to be high to enjoy it. But I did. But once... I didn't have much. I had a few puffs off a joint, right?

As soon as that happened, and this is legal, right? So nothing wrong with it. There's my... I somehow was able to be like, oh, when my state was altered, I could perceive that the jam band mode is like listening to people converse. It's like listening to birds sing with each other.

I remember in the Amazon, when I was in the midst of ayahuasca ceremonies, that there was a very powerful way in which I could perceive the cacophony of frogs and animals and insects as a kind of language of the jungle. And perceiving that in like colors and sounds and tapestries of meaning was one of the most profound experiences of my entire life.

This was like that, although it was in the form of music, a musical cacophony of sounds that seemed to completely capture the spirit of American blues, American jazz, American gospel, American folk, American rock, and just fuse it all together, and then just bring it out like the intelligence of the jungle just moving. And I was like, "Whoa." I was not hearing this before, but now I'm hearing it.

And I feel like I could be wrong about this, because a lot of people that are in the Grateful Dead, they get into the Grateful Dead end up sounding like they're in a cult. So right now, maybe I'm just in a cult that I don't know. I've joined a few cults in my life, so maybe I just did another one.

But it was like a key that turned and something that I didn't have access to before then, that seemed to me like, "What is it with all these people? How do they even like this?" all of a sudden completely made sense. Not only did it make sense, but it was the most joyful, beautiful, interesting, intellectually interesting, and just aesthetically pleasing experience of music that I had ever had in my whole life.

And I'm not kidding when I say that I love a lot of music. So don't get me wrong, I'm not myopic. But this hit me differently. It has since that time inflicted itself upon how I hear all music, and it has completely reshaped my relationship with my guitar. And that was just night one. And all of a sudden I was like, "Oh, I get it. I get why people travel all over the country following these guys. You know why? I get it. Oh, wow."

Okay, there's still some real nutso stuff that happens. Don't get me wrong. Like, some of it's like... but that's interesting, because if you know anything about where the Grateful Dead came from, and I learned about this along the way, they came out of the acid tests in the 60s in Haight-Ashbury and in San Francisco.

We're talking about the Merry Band of the Merry Pranksters, talking about Ken Kesey. We're talking about Timothy Leary. They were music at the forefront of acid awareness in the American psyche. And I never quite... I knew that was like a historical fact, but I never quite... it wasn't until those shows at Oracle Park that I stepped into the stream of that kind of psychedelic cultural, artistic lineage, and I was like, "Wow, this is so amazing."

Not everyone... still not for everyone. It's still a taste that isn't for everyone. You know, it's like some listening to this might just go, "Yeah, I still don't get it." That's fine. However, I accessed that experience till two things happened: I willingly took a step toward my wife and her interest, making it more important than my own taste, and I entered into a live experience of live music, real music happening.

Which I think in some ways we've lost touch of with all the recordings and listening to music on headphones. And there's nothing like live music, though. Live music and slightly altering my state... I wasn't profoundly crazy high or anything. I just had to slightly alter it. And it's like, "Wow, now I'm experiencing it differently."

So the second night we went, and now we decided to deliberately alter our state, but also very modestly, because both of us are real lightweights at this point in time, especially me, having done a lot of ayahuasca work. People frequently think that if you drink a lot of ayahuasca, it's going to make you insensitive to psychedelic stuff. It's quite the opposite.

It makes you increasingly sensitive to psychedelic substances of any kind. For me, for like herbal medicines, acupuncture, qigong, any of it, I'm much more sensitive to now. Anyhow, so night two, we decide to alter our state, go into the park, Oracle Park. And during that night, the experience was... it was the only time in my life that I could ever say that something like the medicinal healing adventure of an ayahuasca ceremony, which feels very ritually held, felt held by a musical experience that was designed to be like a kind of ritual container for insight and healing and growth.

And I'm not kidding when I say this. A lot of their concerts are really known for that, that they became like a band that had the power to hold space for a lot of internal work through art and music, but still in a ritual space. Like, I know it sounds really cheesy, but they're a bit like musical shamans. I really don't mean to cheapen any of that language.

It's true, though. The way they shape experiences, the way their sets work, the way they play, the kind of intentional journey that the music carries you on and then sets you down very gently at the end. There's a reason that a lot of people go to those concerts like church. And I know they're not the only band that's like this. Phish, for many people, is like this. And there's other bands too that aren't necessarily even in the same genre. Do you get what I'm saying?

And the second night was much more like that. And all of a sudden, from deep within me, I started thinking about the year 2014 when I happened to be sitting next to him, and it started feeling a lot more synchronistic to me that now he's acting as a kind of musical shaman for me on this evening of my life, on the eve of my birthday.

And I'm there with my wife, the first time we've traveled for years. I'm getting back to something of myself before kids, right? It was all sort of concreting like a wave. And all of a sudden, a series of insights and scenes flashed in front of me that I knew were going to be the starting point of the book I had abandoned in 2014.

And the title of the book came to me like that. It's called "The Oracle Speaks." And I was just tickled by the fact that, first of all, I loved the title. I absolutely loved it. But it was only like a few beats later, a few minutes of traveling with the music later, that I realized I'm in Oracle Park. Like, of course that would be the title, you know, as I'm reconnecting with that lost project. Wow.

So my book that I just finished, I finished the final round of creative editing (it's different than line editing or proof editing) the day before Bob died. So when Bob passed away just recently, I finished the final creative round of editing. He died the next day. Isn't that just magical? It's a magical, mysterious synchronicity.

The writing of that book, "The Oracle Speaks," I started the first chapter not long after I returned from Oracle Park. Over the past couple of years, the Grateful Dead has been not just a part of my life in terms of music I love, but a part of how I see my life as both a spiritual person and an artistic person.

It's like there were two parts of me that knew they had something in common, but didn't know exactly how they fit together. There was the spiritual, actual kind of monastic part of me that reads Vettius Valens and practices astrology and meditates and goes on pilgrimage to India. And there's a part of me that loves guitar and grew up listening to like Radiohead and the Smashing Pumpkins and whatever the 90s and loves interesting film and art.

It was right at that time that I feel like these pieces of me came together, the artistic and the spiritual. And those parts of me weren't yet ready to be fused together when I was trying to write the first iteration of the book back in 2014. "Wait 10 years," Jeffrey said. Well, it happened to be almost 10 years exactly, unconsciously, without any intention that I would start writing this book.

It would be a synchronicity later, under the same exact planets getting activated in my chart and Bob's, that he would be on his final tour, and I would catch him in his very last shows. And then, of course, we went and saw him with the Wolf Brothers. We went to the Sphere a couple of times. We went to the IMAX theater to see streaming of the last show.

It became like a musical artistic pilgrimage for me over several years. And to get to see... I think it ended up being like nine or ten shows total. I will never, ever forget that, and forget what an impact Bob Weir, the Grateful Dead, and the music, even more than the people, had on my life.

And you know, what's so interesting is that in 2022, just a year prior to my getting back into the Grateful Dead, I had just come out of the Bhakti yoga world. In the 1960s, the Bhakti yogis that came over from India, broadly recognized as the Hare Krishnas... sometimes the caricature of the Hare Krishnas is a bit cult-like and weird, but they're actually very, very sweet, and there's some real normal pockets of participation in the Hare Krishna world that I had very meaningful, beautiful experiences with for a while.

And you may remember me as the bhava when I took initiation. Well, what's interesting is that one of the main reasons I came out of that lifestyle was because it was a little too austere. And I kept recognizing, as Uranus was closing in on the square to my natal Venus, that a part of me is really artistic and sensual and physical and really embodied and not quite ready to take on a total monastic path, which involves a lot of renunciation.

So within a year of that decision, I had begun working out and started a path of bodybuilding, and then very gradually, over the next year, found my way to the Grateful Dead and through the Grateful Dead art and so on and so forth, as I just explained.

Here's what's so remarkable to me about this. Did you know that in the early 1960s acid test movement, one of the most popular, well-known concerts that the Grateful Dead gave featured the leader of the Hare Krishnas, who was at the time fusing his ministry as a teacher of Bhakti yoga in the West to the hippies? He taught everyone mantra meditation at a Grateful Dead concert in San Francisco.

Yeah. And so I think about that fusion between the Hare Krishnas and mantra meditation in the 1960s and the Grateful Dead and LSD. And I see how the heart of all of those things were co-present possibilities for these people, these people that have meant so much in my life to me.

That those same possibilities can coexist, that they don't necessarily have to conflict, that I don't have to choose one over the other. Somehow, all of this was brought together for me during that weekend of shows in San Francisco, because we went down on Haight-Ashbury, and I was like, "Okay, like, this is it. This is where all of my interests make sense to me."

Something was brought together so beautifully, so magically. And even though I don't consider Bob Weir any kind of literal guru or elder (he doesn't know me, these were all just interesting synchronicities), he has also been a kind of guru in my life, a totally different kind. I don't even know how to describe it, but a totally different kind of spiritual light.

The way he carried his masculinity, he worked out, he did yoga. He was someone who believed that following the music was a spiritual activity. He quite clearly talks about it all the time, that the process of channeling the muse in a collective musical setting is not so different than things like Zen or yoga.

I couldn't be more thankful for having connected to a voice like that at this stage in my life when I was trying to figure out how to bring certain parts of myself together. So I made this today in tribute and memory to Bob Weir and the Grateful Dead and what they've meant to me. And I promise you, the music will never stop.

If you're into the Grateful Dead, then you know the music doesn't stop. I feel like such a rookie and such a... who am I to say that? I haven't earned it with a million shows like a lot of you have. But if you know what that feeling is like, then it requires no authority. It's just the simple truth. The music doesn't stop. The creative flow doesn't stop. And I'm just so grateful.

Dead people, by the way, are some of the sweetest, best people I've ever known. And what was so cool to me was realizing my wife was one of them. It was like a gift waking up on Christmas morning to realize that there was a part of my wife that I didn't know. She's a Deadhead, and I just had no clue how special that is.

Because the way that Deadheads show up at the concert for each other, in support of one another's journey and experience, is also really profound to witness. It is a kind of collective shamanic container that happens because people really love and care about each other at these shows. Not perfectly, but I saw it. I felt it.

And knowing my wife was like a part of that, I was like, "Oh, you're... you were hot. I always thought you were hot, but now taking it to a whole 'nother level of goddess fantasticness." Anyway, so just my sharing of love. I hope that you, if you're into the Dead or not, that this was a fun story. So many takeaways.

The simple insight, astrologically, is this: these little moments, the fact that they are available for us to track out the connection between our little life happening over here and someone else's life that we have actually no real personal interaction with... but interaction with one another doesn't always require literal connections. And the astrology can help us see that. And that is a beautiful thing.

I encourage you to track it yourself with the bands and people and thinkers and encounters you've had in your life, and look for those overlaps, because they're there. And they can do nothing but shed more light on the fact that we are guided and held at every step of the way. Alright. Much love, everyone. Bye.
