As the sun and the moon merge together,
May the dualistic mind of the beholder,
Be that which is eclipsed, for even just a moment.
May those watching in the Americas and those around the world be greeted by waves of epiphanies as the dark shadow of the moon appears on the Earth, our secret skin.
As countless millions share rare silence and awe, may we recognize that we're part of something much bigger and truer than the tyranny of individualism and the illusion of separation.
As the Sun's veil is removed and one circle appears again as two, may the light-rays of this new sun imprint in our memories, the possibility of renewed vision and sight, even in the darkness.
