Coming home from the Zen Center the other night about 10. The sky was crystal clear. Went inside to turn out the outside lights and haul out the binoculars to have a look. The winter constellations Orion and the Pleiades were setting in the west. The spring constellation Leo was rising in the east. Got a good look at Gemini and the Beehive Cluster overhead.

When you start to see the constellations and other night objects in relation to the seasons of the year, the universe becomes a part of your neighborhood; like the big blue house down the road or the sounds of the birds. The night sky is ever-changing and never changing, just like everything else.
