The Matterhorn is a mountain of the Alps, straddling the main watershed and border between Switzerland and Italy. It is a large, near-symmetrical pyramidal peak in the extended Monte Rosa area of the Pennine Alps.
Sometimes referred to as the Mountain of Mountains, the Matterhorn has become an iconic emblem of the Swiss Alps and of the Alps in general.

Switzerland: ‘Starry Sky in the Music Room at the Villa Stuck'
After all the holiday craziness and traveling, I received four postcards in my mail few days ago from Switzerland, USA, Poland, and Germany.
This is a beautiful and really cool postcard that shows the horoscope cycle. I love this postcard because it has the sign Gemini on it and that is my horoscope :) This is also the first card I've received with Gemini on it :) So excited about this card
<Postcrossing ID: CH-270917>
The sun transits Gemini between May 21 and Jun 20. People say that Geminis are kinda crazy and never know how to calm down...which I agree to some extent..haha
