The sea serpent bakunawa tries to swallow the moon, and people once banged pots to make it let go. Tradition reads it as something trying to eclipse your light, and the power of a collective voice to push it back.

My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
