The Moon
“The moon does not hasten on its way around the world.”
Symbol of Steadiness, Peace and Patience
“This, too, will pass.” A reminder that patience is required in awaiting any outcome. It is necessary to know that everything must run its course in Divine time. Even the nightmare of the Middle Passage and slavery had to end in its due time, but it was necessary to remain strong, resistant and patient throughout its duration.
