The alchemical mixing of day and night takes place as darkness creeps out from under the rocks.
–––
At this time there is a peak of sheer livingness along the edges of these diurnal and nocturnal states.
The birds burst into their full magnificence like avian fire, as the dawn and the dusk approach, and even the wind dances during this time of mixing.
Indeed, it is at the edge of all the niches and habitats that the magic happens.
