Space & Time 151: Light the Beacons gathers bold new speculative fiction, poetry, and features around the enduring power of hope in dark times. Inspired by the guiding light of the Tarot Star, this issue explores beacons both literal and symbolic: signals across impossible distances, voices that refuse to be silenced, strange survivals, cosmic mysteries, ecological reckonings, and small acts of defiance that may yet change the future.
Featuring work by Linda D. Addison, Gabriele Micozzi, M. Frost, Debra Tillar, Sali Andiamo Siyaya, Chris Nelson, Dean Schreck, J.D. Strunk, Frederick Stansfield, Isha Jain, Kendall Evans, A.J. Parker, Preston Ham, Kelly Murashige, Josh Pearce, Micha Rogers, A J Dalton, and Angela Yuriko Smith, this issue continues Space & Time's long tradition of publishing imaginative voices from around the world.
With cover art by Kyra Starr and a theme rooted in renewal, resistance, and creative illumination, Light the Beacons invites readers into a constellation of stories and poems where darkness is real, but so is the signal calling us forward.
