This week we return to Hartford Connecticut for the second set of the band's performance on April 17, 1982.  This set starts out with a smokin' 'Shakedown Street' featuring some exuberant Brent runs and interplay with Garcia. They then go into a top version of 'Sailor>Saint' which culminates in a bit of a Spanish Jam before leading into Drums and Space. 'Uncle John's Band' comes out of Space, not a usual occurance, and leads too into a hot 'Not Fade Away'. 'Wharf Rat' takes the ballad spot, and they rock out with 'Around and Around'; into a killer 'One More Saturday Night'. You might notice there are no stops between these second set songs on this night. The encore, "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue' has some great Garcia vocals..   Grateful Dead Hartford Civic Center Hartford, CT 4/17/1982 - Saturday Two      Shakedown Street [15:03] > Lost Sailor [7:20] > Saint Of Circumstance [7:07] > Jam [5:28] > Drums [5:28#] > Space [8:50] > Uncle John's Band [9:00] > Not Fade Away [7:58] > Wharf Rat [9:41] > Around And Around [3:59] > One More Saturday Night [4:21] Encore      It's All Over Now, Baby Blue [6:59]  You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod050225.mp3   hope you have a wonderful first week of May!! 

It's the night before our epic Dos De Mayo Fiesta, Uncle John gets the invite he didn't know he needed, and we (sort of) learn how to do a backflip—emphasis on sort of.

The biggest lessons I learn in life,Have to do with my heart.They teach me to care, be fair, and share,Very carefully from the start.☉Come join me in Africa! https://bit.ly/into-the-wild-2025With both the Sun conjunct Chiron (in Aries ruled Mars) and Venus conjunct Saturn, you can bet that the lessons these days (and there are many) center around our relationships. As I discuss in this report, this is an important week in that Venus, who has been going retrograde since March 1st, descending into the underworld, symbolizes a time for us to dig deep down without our hearts and "die" or strip away any and all false notions, beliefs, or realities.That she "bumps" into Saturn during her death/rebirth indicates an even greater purge, until finally, we have the Sabian symbol of "PURIFICATION" at the degree of her station! On the same day as the full Moon with the Sun conjunct Chiron (opposite the Moon)! We are getting the italics, the underline, and big, bold letters saying, "Put your relationships in order!" and that involves some deep reflection before the conversation.As I also mentioned in the report, this can have to do with your personal values and/or money. As we can see on the global stage with the tariffs and trade wars, the whole collective is going through an analysis of what it is needing, wanting, making, and trading and needing to ask the question, "Is it worth it?"I believe this weekend can be a beautiful time of sharing sensitive moments, conversation, and caring. With sympathy for ourselves and each other, we can create safe spaces for opening our hearts, sharing our needs and fears, and, with some grace, find a deeper spiritual connection with those we love.It's time to raise the bar on our relationships, which means opening up and going deeper with those who care and of the same heartmind and leaving behind those who don't get us anymore, despite how old or deep the relationship was/is. Either way, we can be experiencing a time of emptiness and sorrow, either for what we have done or not done, or what we are being called to let go of in order to move on. Just remember there's no hurry, as class isn't over until the last breath."Well the first days are the hardest days don't you worry anymore. Cuz when life looks like easy street there is danger at your door. Think this through with me, let me know your mind, wo ho what I want to know is are you kind."This week's song is Uncle John's Band!  https://youtu.be/Qj8Q3o2J4A4?si=uBZYiQlyPeX3R3u0So Much Love,Kaypacha☉
