While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired.

Tonight's December full moon is called the Cold Moon. The final full lunation of the year, this is one for deep reflection: what were the struggles and the successes of the past 12 months? How can you rest? What will you let go of, in order to make space for new things to come? 🌕

Last night there was a fire directly under us and we were evacuated. Thankfully the buildings in Germany are made of concrete and the fire department reacted fast. No one was hurt. But it was scary! My girls couldn’t fall asleep after. Watch your candles and cables everyone !
