WEST: water, the power of intuition and emotion - the ability to dream, love, grieve, cleanse, heal, refresh, the qualities of fluid - mutability, purity, depth; blue, turquoise, purple, silver; fish, cetecea, crustacea, water-birds; shells, seaweed, blood, tears, sweat, THE MOON.

I WANT TO TALK TO EVERYBODY I CAN AS DEEPLY AS I CAN 
I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SLEEP IN OPEN FIELDS
