Hair issues...
In memory of Mary Travers of Peter, Paul & Mary fame, who passed away this week, I searched out "If I Had MY Way", a song written by the Reverend Gary Davis.
Peter, Paul & Mary perform a rousing version of this gospel song that sings of Samson, the biblical hero whose strength lay in his hair.
Samson was so strong, others conspired to find the secret to his strength. When they knew it lay in his hair, they cut his hair off while he slept.
But the point of the Biblical story in connection with the Sabian symbol Virgo 28 "A bald-headed man", is that Samson's enemies forgot that hair grows back.
Fertile and resilient, thick, rich and unperturbed at the natural cycle of seasons, "A bald-headed man" knows deep down that his strength will return as surely as a fertile garden will flourish again in spring.
