Dear friends & family,

Greetings from Spain! Right now we are in Barcelona, where there are more motorbikes than cars.  Where shops really do close up midday and people nap. Where dinner starts at 9. Where every few blocks is a flower shop, selling pots of rosemary, mint and jasmine.  And where the architecture makes this one of the most beautiful cities in the world. 

If you have kids (or maybe you are one, yourself), make travel abroad a priority.  Become familiar -- if not fluent -- in another language. Let us all be amazed at each other's wonders. 

To see the April issue, click here. Or pick up a copy on the newsstands. And thanks for reading.

From now until the beginning of May, astral activity allows a lucid view of how the past intersects with the present to create the future. Pay attention: It's important to walk between these many worlds carefully, not because the path is particularly dangerous-although some will say it is-but because during times such as these, the gods have little tolerance for hubris, and an arrogant misstep could take a long time to repair...(read more).
