Dog..God spelt backwards
In my Kaizen Muse Creativity Coaching
Zapped again with the Higher Purpose question. That lovely song Jill played
Stimulated this for me;
God is Energy, God holds the space for all Purposes inviting the evolvement
of purpose.
In the quiet of the music, I am reminded of my `Essential Self', and what
about that is essential to my unfolding. Remaining Authentic and shifting
negative thinking. Having FUN. Letting what I love enter my heart and soul.
Seeing the Joy in others joy.
When asked who was my guide. My `cutest-dog-in-the-Universe. tucked his
sweet self into the side of my body during our session.
He reminds me to love unconditionally. Let the shit go that doesn't matter.
Live as if `being' is all there is. How do I give my life to living?
DOG… God spelt backward. (Read the above again)
When I look to my Dog, I will remember.
The power of tenderness and unconditional love.
I am my `truth' in every moment.
Where my Joy lives is my power.
ICEBERGS OFF COAST OF NEW ZEALAND
So,... this morning I'm ambling through the news. I have to say I avoid most of the news, most of the time. I find it painful. For some reason, this article on yahoo about the icebergs floating their way to the coast of New Zealand caught my eye. Little Ice bergs, 11'-12'; big enough that running in to one would make a big hurt. Maybe 100 or more of them. Big alert.
Look out. "Warning warning Will Rogers." (side note, To tell those of you who don't know this quote and inference to Will Rogers give it the good old Google)
Anyway, I was thinking about the effect of 'small steps' that are incredible powerful and important in my Creativity Coaching. How a series of small steps can lead you to your greater intention. When it looks, feels, to be too big of a project, an accomplishment, a plan,etc, take a small step to get there. Don't let the 'overwhelm' take you down and leave you doing nothing. Break it down into little icebergs.
Back to the icebergs.... This is a serious metaphoric thing here.
I'm not going to go to the dark place of holy crap look what global warming is doing? DAmn..Please recycle and care. (I mean it) No, what I want my point to be is; when you break your deep and abiding chunk of inner Arctic ice in to smaller bits... Think... a project you desire to do, a book you wish to write, a job you want, that thing you desire that sits largely below the surface of what you believe you can see and do; You have a better change of navigating it. Smaller pieces of the grand 'thing' are more navigable. (you with me here)
So what if you can't see some of it. So what if it's going to hit the coast of you and beach itself there. Melt into you. (that could be a good thing)
Right now...It's floating along in your dreams, in your imaginings. Remember, it is way smaller than that big thing you conjure up to get in your way of joy. You can surf on it now.
And, to further the metaphor of it all. If you have global warming happen around you, you might look and notice what your own global warming is doing to you. For me, it's that 'as above so below' concept. It's not necessarily biblical and it might be for you.
I'm going to discuss in here in the near future...
Have any thoughts about this?
Hail... (now how about that for little pieces of iceberg) and Fair-well mates.
The curious case of occurrence
I have no/know idea why I have titled this 'the curious case of occurrence'. It fell out the thin air between my ears
this morning and my fingers tapped it out with out giving a further thought.
I have to say I like it. It has a special flow to it and .. What the heck does it mean?
Moment ago, the Fool in the tarot cards appeared on one of my frequently visited Websites, The GAia community.
My browsers opens to this website.
Below is what they have said about it. As an Tarot enthusiast myself, I inhaled the discription and found my own
following quickly behind.
'how curious this occurrence' is for me today. Ahhh... there is it... the answer.
This is the quote from Tarot.com.
"Pamela Coleman-Smith's artful rendition of an "innocent Fool" archetype (Rider-Waite deck) is often used to represent Tarot in general. Early classical versions of the Fool card, however, portray quite a different character -- a person driven by base needs and urges, who has fallen into a state of poverty and deprivation. In some instances, he is made out to be a carnival entertainer or a huckster. In others, he is portrayed as decrepit and vulnerable -- as the cumulative result of his delusions and failures. Not until the 20th century do you see the popular Rider-Waite image of the Fool arise -- that of an innocent Soul before its Fall into Matter, as yet untainted by contact with society and all its ills. Modern decks usually borrow from the Rider-Waite imagery. Most Fool cards copy the bucolic mountainside scene, the butterfly, the potential misplaced step that will send the Fool tumbling into the unknown. Don't forget, however, that the earlier versions of this card represented already-fallen humanity, over-identified with the material plane of existence, and beginning a pilgrimage towards self-knowledge, and eventually, wisdom. The Fool reminds us to recognize the path of personal development within ourselves -- and the stage upon that path where we find ourselves -- in order to energize our movement toward deeper self-realization.
What comes up for me;
Often the Fool reminds me to Jump into life. Free myself, give myself to the innocence of the moment. Notice the
wonder of it. The limitless possibilities that creativity has to offer. The Joy of giving into curiosity.
One small jump. Not a big one. One small jump into the unknown. Maybe, it's a teeny little step that invites another
teeny little step.
On this late October morning is here is a little guided imagery for you to partake of . Do this at your leisure and see
what happens... Give yourself to the muse of pleasure and creation. go ahead... let the Fool embrace you.
Take a few breathes. Nice even breathing. Relax where your sitting. THis will only take a few moments. Keep your breath steady. Feel yourself simply be in the moment. What do you notice? Don't hold that 'noticing' just notice and let it go.
Feel yourself at peace in this moment.
Today, open your self like the lens of a camera, giving yourself to a deeper awareness of your surroundings.
What if... a curious occurrence happens for that inspires your creativity? What if.. it Inspires you to take gently action on behalf
of it. Nothing threatening, nothing over the top, simply curiosity seeking to inspire an opportunity.
What 'curious occurrence' can you open yourself to...give your awareness to, that might shift you into a place pleasure and joy? Sit with that possibility for a moment. Gently breath into it.
Have a glorious and curious day...
ASTRO PACK RATS... scorpio 20009
ASTRO PACK RATS…. SCORPIO… 2009
It’s autumn in the Northern Hemisphere; a time to gather and harvest; a time to prepare for winter’s austerity and rest. I believe we are of the seasons, with our own Spring, Summer, Winter and Fall that live within us. In spring, you can feel the vitality of life rise within you as your yard greens and tulips greet the sun. Summer heats you up and Fall invites you to see what that heat/energy brought into fruition. Winter, asks that you relax, go into the silence, wait, and stay steady as you go. Get those projects done that need doing inside.
With that said:
What in your life last spring did you dream into being? What seeds did you plant in your life as that greening began? And now, with the spice of autumn ending the cycle of life to prepare for the next spring, what of those seeds that you sowed are ready for gathering? Was it work? Love? Was it a new idea? Maybe, it is a dream that sits on the edge of your desire waiting for your action. You do have the winter to cultivate it.
What ever it may be, the Pack Rat in us has desires that need sustaining. Right? When winter comes for us Northerners…Where are the garage sale? Do we rush off to Florida or the South West to sooth our need for sun and junking? I hit the local antique malls. Dealer to dealer sales seems to be what I do. How about you?
As always, the planets are busy. The new moon on the 18th of Oct. in Libra, invites you to consider nurturing what gives you pleasure. What beauty and balance might you design into your life’s pattern that expresses your best self?
Oh.. and please let us not forget, Halloween, All Saint’ Day, and The Day of the Dead. ooooooaaahhhaa. A time when the veil between the worlds is thin. When we can honor what and who has passed into the Great Beyond. What memories rise for you from those that have gone before you that are positive reinforcements for your life’s journey? What wisdom comes from what lies invisible to you yet lives in your heart?
To help you out… here is some Pack Rat-tish Astrology for your entertainment. And remember… all of you… this is your time of year… hoarding and collecting is necessary for winter survival. So… get out there and find your treasure and be assured that you are doing yourself a service. <wink>
Consider this…
SCORPIO… Passions rise. Maybe you’re feeling a little extra sexy. Maybe… a little too aggressive. It’s restless energy that needs direction.. Be mindful of your impact. Contain that aggression. Use it for exercise or a day trip to an auction. The beginning of the second week in November, might really stir you up. Be mindful of what you say and how you say it. Not much of a casual nature rolls off your tongue. Give pause before you speak; the results of that achievement will serve you way better than impulse and the desire to have what you want right Now. Play nice.
SAGITTARIUS… Feeling like there is something bigger than yourself that needs attending to?? See where that awareness takes you Sag. It may be big and yet the wisdom behind taking small steps to get to where you want and imagine yourself to be has great benefit. What does your wisdom tell you? Uniquely, moody times require a uniquely great mind with a big heart. Think big, take baby steps.
CAPRICORN… A lot of airy and watery elements are interested in asking you to lighten up. A dash of fire and welll…. Go with the flow… blah blah blah… Don’t they know they need to stay grounded to get anything done??? geezz.
You know and therefore you and your fellow/lady Earth signs must hold the space for stability and getting things done in an orderly fashion. The full moon on the 2cd of Nov. in earthy Taurus does invite you to enjoy your senses and sensuality in a grounded calm way. Consider giving yourself to that energy right after a spooky, Scorpion-ic Halloween.
AQUARIUS…Aquarius has dawned and in full motion. Jupiter, the planet of expansion, optimism and good fortune shines through the eyes of Aquarius. Neptune, the planet of illusion, mystery, deception and spiritual growth, sits very close to Jupiter. Neptune energy is no stranger to you. Be aware of how big you make your Neptunian experience. Let the fortune of Jupiter expand your spirited and spiritual journey rather than illusion and deceptions. This isn’t all about you. How can you make a difference in your world? Give yourself a break… Find a mysterious treasure and expand your knowledge of it.
PISCES… Facing off with what has held you feeling responsible for the effect of global issues, is shifting. What have you learned in the last few months that you can take positive action on? Consider how it gives you joy. You can move on behalf of what inspires you to care so much for your community and the world. It is a time of harvest. Not just the land you live on; the inner landscape of you heart.
Feel the Full Moon on the 2cd. What message does it bring to you?
ARIES… So much talk about feelings. Whew. Let yourself enjoy it. Beauty and love has been right in front of you. Did you notice? Harvest your feelings of love and wonder and direct them back out into the world and to someone you feel special about. Speak of it. Know the passion of it. Be mindful of becoming overwhelmed or overwhelming. Take a breath. aaah.. that’s better. You have as much time as you need Aries. What magical thing did you find lately?
TAURUS… What have you been holding on to that requires you to let go of? Oh stubborn one… notice the flow around you and consider that it might work for you better going with it. “Resistance is futile.”
Be open to conversation. It all has to get discussed. Really.. it does. Let your time of harvest be in sharing the joy of a life well lived and a life that knows the pleasures of living it.
GEMINI… There maybe a new pull to how you experience your sense of responsibility and what/whom you profess to be in the world/community rising up for you. Take notice of it. It will rise slowly and tap you on the shoulder for attention. It will remind you of what you have been noticing in the global community and how that larger family impacts your immediate community. Harvest the information that you have gathered in the last months and see what part of it invites you to take action on it. This is a time of expansion of new ideals and ways of communicating in the world and within your family. What worked is passing.
CANCER… Hold the fort. Keep the flow going. Check in with loved ones to remind them that it’s all going to be OK. From your vantage point at this time, it’s pretty busy out there; mysterious expansion, deep conversations, a knowing that the way the world has been going … change is a gonna come. You also know that nurturing your family, home and community is what is really important. So… in times of chaos, you already have the answer, secure the homestead, be loving and caring, support your family and friends. You can be the model of that security for those who are in your sphere of influence.
LEO… Lots of energy is pushing your edges . It’s a sharp edge. There are those that do not move with the fire that moves you. Patience… Breathe in patience. See if you can take that energy and direct it to a cause or charity that you keep talking about and have yet to take action on. Just do it. The world is expanding in a new way right before your eyes. It is a mystery. The truth of it is for you to find for yourself. To better understand that mystery, engage it. Get to know it. Take action on behalf of the flame within you that is burning.
VIRGO… Not that you are not ever vigilant Virgo, you are when you are tuned in to the world around you. The feeling of being responsible for everything is shifting. If you have been paying attention….You have learned a lot about what you profess to be. You have a new awareness of what works for your body.
You may even have had an ‘ah ha’ moment, that what you have learned can actually support and sustain your immediate environment; be that family, friends, work, your passion. There is no time like the present to feed your passion.
LIBRA… You’ve been busy; gathering and readying yourself for the winter, meeting up with friends, figuring out how you fit into the larger scheme of things. There is a part of you that wants to keep things on the surface, not to serious and yet, you get pulled in to some drama or another, one way or the other.
Hold your own. Saturn is entering your sign and will ask you to consider; how do you set your personal boundaries? Who do you profess to be? What’s love got to do with it? I ask you… How do you give form to the wind? Breathe into your body.
Disarming the Overwhelm...
Yikes.. Feeling Overwhelmed. That feeling is vibrating right on through me right now. What do you do when you feel overwhelmed?
Here are some things I do...
First I slow my life down to a plop in a chair and take a big ol' breath. I do that breathing thing several times slowly, paying attention to each breath and letting each breath tour my body. I notice the tension in my body. Where it is and I give my inhale to that place of tension and my exhale to the release of it. I imagine a place, ( I made one up decades ago) that is peaceful, safe, beautiful and all mine; anything/else is allowed by invitation only. I don't usually share this place. Mine..
As I relax with easy breathing, I allow myself to just be in this place. NO worries, No stress, no have to's or pressure of any kind lives in this space I call mine. I can call this place up in a moment, when ever I need it to support my feelings of overwhelm. Voila... I'm transported there for a few seconds, several minutes,... as much time as I need to feel myself peaceful and in the moment.
I invite you to imagine a place that is alllll yours. Imagine it as glorious as you wish it to be. It is your place and nothing or noone can invade it without your direct invitation. Feel the joy and pleasure of having this place and that you can visit it anytime you desire. For as short or as long as you wish...
What does your space look, feel, smell, inspire for you?
Enjoy...
And I thought I had that one down...
Ok.. so... here's the deal... I didn't raise my hand (press #1) in my Creativity Coaching class last night to the question. "Do any of you feel you have Perfectionistic tendencies?"
Now.. why would I let my Wig Out on that one? Me? A perfectionist? I still don't attach myself to being the kind of perfectionist
I notice in others... such as...and maybe you see yourself in this list.
Examples of Perfectionist... Are you in this list????
***If I can't do it right I'm not doing it at all.
***No matter what I do, It's never enough
***I have to be an expert at this or what's the point.
***I have done this one million times and it is Still not right
***No one else can do it as good as I can. Why ask for help.
***I do not 'get' why people like this creativity thing it's just hard work to get
to the end.
***Enjoy the 'process/journey? You're kidding right?
***I can't fail at this no matter what it takes.
***I am unlovable if I don't get it perfect.
***Just this one more detail, just one more and it will be... Perfect??? argh
Anyone, have another to add?
What I do feel about the job of being a perfectionist is; that giving yourself to the possibility that a mistake
is a highly creative expression of being creative, might open you up to letting go of the persistent, critical voice
of the perfectionist that lives in you. (Whew, that was a long sentence.) What if... a mistake is a 'unfolding' discovery???
Consider that mistake as a door way, a path, a possibility that might lead you to something exciting and new.
Push the button in your brain that says... 'Refresh and Breathe' and imagine that mistake as you being very clever and
unbearably brilliant. Give yourself 10 seconds to feel that. Aaah... 10 whole seconds to notice the wonder of
a mistake well made. Yippee. A perfect mistake.. Can you let yourself believe for 10 more seconds, that all
your mistakes are Creations perfect way of inviting you to be the glorious self you have been working so hard to be.
Who do you know that revels in not being perfect? You know you know someone. What do you love about that person?
Could you choose one thing about them that you wish you could be and imagine being that way for a minute? 10 seconds?
aaah... good job.
See if you can give yourself to this process for a 10 seconds anytime you feel the failure of getting it purrfect rise to
pick at your brain.
You are all perfect as you are... Really.. I mean it.
Now get out there and have some fun..
Shiftin, siftin, small steppin around
Wiggin' OUt... is shiftin', siftin' and small steppin' around. 'What?" you ask? "Exactly," I say.
Shiftin' through the minds busy surf of waves that crash in to the land of me.
Siftin' the grain of me to a more finely tuned being.
Small steppin' into the overwhelming everything that I let limit creativities desire to express
through me.
I did an exercise this morning... I invite you to give it a try...a
make 3 lists.. numbering 1 - 20.
The first 20.... I Think.... the next 20... I Sense.... and last.... I Know For Sure.... After you do this.. What did you notice about
these 3 lists?
here is one from each of my list. ok maybe two or three.
I think alot
I think my mind gets in the way of me
I think I am part of the solution to the make the me/my world a better place.
I sense things in the air
I sense that my senses need attunement and nurturing.
I sense the coming and shiftings of the seasons
I know for sure... I will die
I know for sure that I can't spell well at all.
I know for sure that I am loved.
What I noticed is that I am in a 'knowing' state when I don't make up a story about something in my immediate physical world
rather, I simply notice my physical reality. In physical reality, I am fully present in myself.
What might you notice?
Ya'll have a good day...
xo j
'Wig Out'? Whatz that mean anyway?
Not that I want to be attached to this idea... and... mercury is retrograde. It appears, in the sky, to be going
backwards tho' it isn't. In astrology, the thought is that Mercury Retrograde can inspire lapses in thought that get you
to your appointments on time if at all. or...Your car might give you some trouble. or..Your cell phone might blow you out... endlessly.
or...Trying to get where you want to get in a timely manner, might take an exaggerated amount of time. Travel delays.. Forgetfulness...
Brain cells go haywire.. YIKES...In other words... your communications with the world could possibly go Capooie. Technology might blow you off.
And... It might not happen at all like that for you. What have you noticed?
If you feel the need to 'Wig Out' with all this annoying break down in communications and getting to where you want to...
Consider this....
Instead of just glancing at your calendar of events of the next couple of weeks... give it an extra minute to besure you have it right.
Give yourself 5/10 extra minutes to get to your destination.
Bring a book to read in case you are at a stand still on the freeway... Be free on the way. bring water and snacks
Forgive your cell phone for not doing it's job for you when you're already late and can't get your call through to you appointment.
Remember to Breath... deep... inhales and exhales especially when your cell phone is done serving you in the moment and you're
late.. late late to your appointment.
YOU DO have as much time as you need. Really.. you do... How can you lighten your load of have tos and should dos
Life gets in the way while you're living it. Embrace it.
Bring a little note pad with you .. don't forget a writing tool, and list everything you're grateful for. OK.. One thing is just fine.
How might patiences be your friend?
Let slowing down be joyful... notice how you fill your day. How might you fill it with more creative enjoyment?????..
Peas n' luv...
Muse Creativity Coaching...
I have begun my journey into becoming a Creativity Coach. Down right thrilling. Here is Jill, my mentor/teacher's Muse Flash.
Be sure to visit Chris Jordon's site.. Really amazing. http://www.chrisjordan.com/current_set2.php
and... while you're at it... gather a picture of your 'inner critic' ... set her/him down and give them a big old talkin' to. I just did.
It's like... shut the F_ _ _ up.. Right.. oh by the way the big 'F' word.. is font... uh huh...yes it is.. OK.. Maybe not. tee hee.
if being harsh to the harshest critic you have... your own self... is simply too harsh. go take a bubble bath and tell her/him how much you love her and then duck tape her/his mouth... I'm on a roll her guys..
Anyway... this is from Jill...
Dear Inner Critic.... this is from Jill's newsletter.
Dear Inner Critic,
Thank you for sharing with me that I'm not good enough. Oh and that it's too late for me to begin a creative passion because I'm not 26 anymore. And that I'm wasting my time and money on my creative endeavor, because others do it better than me and/or/don't get, I never finish anything. Plus, I make a lot of mistakels so I'm reckless.
And futhermore, thanks for reminding me that I shouldn't let my mind wander because it's way too small to be out by itself. Thanks for sharing that I blew it 20 years ago, that I might as well just watch The Housewives of Orange County, and forget venturing off into the blue of beyond-predictability.
Thank you for sharing all that but guess what? YOU'RE boring! You've told me these things over and over and over (and over) and it's just really getting old. You're a monotone meanie and you're still wearing high topped pants from the 80s (not that there's anything wrong with that). I'm starting to listen to the OTHER voice, the lyrical, soothing, and interesting one... So go write a letter of complaint or whine about the soup at the corner deli. Make an airplane out of flaccid vermicelli. Listen to the cracks in the sidewalk... you may hear the sound of concrete. Scram.
I'm listening to the voice deep within the recesses of my illustrious personal power that knows... I can defy gravity (.. just saw Wicked).. and that trust is a pair of wings (or a broom) or simply a feeling of inner peace, a breath, that lifts me above my fears and into the realm of the possible of inner peace, or participles waiting for a dosey doh. And GUESS WHAT? I am a little reckless, SO WHAT!?
Nevertheless.. never!
Jill
ASTRO PACK RATS... VIRGO 20009
ASTRO PACK RATS, VIRGO 2009.
Summer’s heat fills the month of August for those of us who live in North America. The planets whirl and twirl their energy in the space around us no matter where our bodies travel this planet. Astrology speaks it’s language through their relationships to each other, marking us all with some story that is ours to consider, to negotiate, to ponder, to laugh with, to shift our consciousness around; to better our days and give dreams to our nights.
It is Virgo’s ‘special’ month, tho’ whatever your sign maybe, the influences of the planets will lay their mark on you, pushing your edges and dazzling your days with possibilities. You choose how each day unfolds for you, not because each day is full of joy and wonder… more…because you can choose your attitude to what life presents to you. Why not choose positive thoughts?
When it’s rainy on the outside I like to go ‘junking’. When it’s rainy on the inside I like to rid myself of some of my ‘junk’, literally and figuratively.
Here are some things to consider this month for all of us.
The Moon is ‘New’ on the 20th of August in the sign of Leo. It’s a good time to begin a creative project. Set in motion something that inspires you, that needs to get a fire lite under it, something you have procrastinated on. Take a baby step. You don’t have to do it all at once.
The Moon is ‘Full’ on the 4th of Sept in the sign of Pisces. It is time to bring out of the ‘shadows’ that project you’ve been working on, that feeling you have hesitated to share; It’s a time to feel the fullness of yourself even if it feels difficult and mysterious to you. Let it flow.
Mercury Retrograde…in the sign of Libra, 7th Sept. till 28th Sept.. be mind-full of appointments, travel, contracts, communications. Technology has a way of goofing up during these times. Give balance, fairness, kindness and remember you have as much time as you need. Clear communication needs to have that kinda time during this Mercury retrograde especially when dealing with loved ones.
Consider this…
VIRGO … Are you feeling sort of mumbled and tongue-tied? Feeling like you can’t say what needs saying? Caught in the details??? I invite you to consider pushing past old habits and welcome some new innovated way to do what you do. It’s not like it’s not been pushing at you already, probably for way longer than you even bothered to notice and you notice most everything. It’s hard to not have “the Rules’ get in your way, even your own rules, that you preciously set for yourself may need reevaluation. It is your birthday months so take time to play. Get rid of some of that ‘stuff’ that’s been sitting around collecting dust.
Consider this…
LIBRA … Mercury retrograde traipses through your garden of beauty and delights; stirs the pot of communication for you (read above). Some of you Libras may feel the pull of something big and formidable drawing your attention and inviting you to take a chance. It could be a beautiful thing. Take your time during the retrograde, study and read up on everything and when the retrograde is ended on the 28th of Sept., make your decisions because you’ve done your research. Maybe you need to have that lovely piece of art you’ve had your eye on. Treat yourself
Consider this…
SCORPIO … Life ain’t all bad these days as long as all your deep and meaningful questions get answers. There is magic and suspense in them there shadows. Keeping company with an Aquarius might inspire a new direction for you. It wouldn’t hurt you to be mindful of those little details of life that need attending to. Maybe, it’s is coming to time that what you have professed to be in the world may now need to shift with the changing times. What do you want to be when you grow up Scorpio?
Consider this…
SAGITTARIUS … Philosophically, you feel the shift in consciousness of the world around you. It’s big and you like to embrace the big picture. How will you take action on behalf of the part of the change you feel compelled to give yourself too? Details … Details Details… Yep… those have to be addressed and dealt with too. If you’re talking the talk, you have to walk the talk. Stay grounded, go into nature and absorb the wonder of the natural world. Eat better.
Consider this…
CAPRICORN …You may not know what it is … and you can feel the earth shifting, rules changing, what people have professed to be no longer makes sense. Stay steady. Trust what you know is fair and true for you. Don’t impose it on others especially loved ones. Simplify. Simplify. Simplify. Keep your humor up. Give up on your strange imaginings and let life flow. It’s all just a story and you are the designer of your life. Make up a story that is rich, joyful, prosperous, and full of possibilities. If you believe it, it will come.
Consider this…
AQUARIUS … Does life feel like one giant mystery after another … after another??? Does it seem like some things go into slow motion right before your very eyes? Be glad, it’s at the very least, interesting and usually, quite different. Just like how you Aquarius folks like it. It’s in the air Aquarius. The retrograde might double the ‘pleasure’ of slow motion, so take time to go deeper into the mystery than to let it skim the surface of your life.
Consider this…
PICSES … A lot of Virgo activity is looking you straight in the eye. It wouldn’t hurt you to tighten up your exercise routine and watch your food intake. Stand up for yourself. Revolutionize yourself. Take up something that you have a passion for and yet still feel fearful of trying… Take BABy Steps; Little steps that won’t scare you away from your goal. Don’t be lazy!! Oh, and by-the-way, how has your dream life been? Are their any odd visions happening? Don’t stay attached to them and let them pull you into a place that is negative. Notice how they make you feel and notice how that impacts your day. Find humor.
Consider this…
ARIES … You get to be the boss of you. And remember… It is not all about you. A lot is shifting around you these days. Attention to more earthy challenges might be a good place to put your steamy, fiery energies. Be a positive instigator for a cause or project that needs your special input. Get people excited and then give them the tasks to bring it to fruition. It would be suggested to not finalize anything till after the 28th.
Consider this …
TAURUS … It’s an easy time for you to get sluggish and too overly invest in the little details of life that feed your sensitive, sensual earthy self. You need activity.. Physical activity. And … yes.. that too. What might you do that will make a difference in the way you do what you do??? Sometimes too much of the ‘woo woo’ and all that mysterious stuff doesn’t feel quite solid enough for you. And yet, you have the ability to feel/touch something/one and know the silence story of it. How might that gift help the world you live in?
Consider this…
GEMINI … It may have been a month for you that felt like you had to ‘defend’ yourself or others felt a need to defend them selves in your presence; a time to stand up for what needs saying. A competition of Frivolous chatter may have lead to riotous conversations. That isn’t a bad thing. and…That is shifting over the next month… only don’t be fooled… Mercury will have his way with you. Haste is best left to the marathoner. Take your time. Smell the air around you. Notice the unique qualities of where you live and what lives inside of you for this will keep you grounded in the moment. Pay attention to our breath.
Consider this…
CANCER … You were all busy making pretty your immediate environment the last month and as September enters, you have even more energy to get bigger projects done before the cold winds flow in. Get busy. You might feel a little moody and emotion as well. So, be mindful of making a mountain out of a mole’s hill with these bursts of cosmic energy. Relax in the comfort of your personal space and ponder the wonder of how great your life is right now.
Consider this…
LEO … Is there ever a month that isn’t for Leo? (wink wink) Duty calls and other’s need your great strengths and special entertainment value to get things moving. Be the inspiration you were born to be.
Take pride in the accomplishments of those that need you to notice them; it will be very motivating for them. Speak them out loud… Roar your pleasures. Bring some unique magic into the way you romance a loved one. To give is to receive dear Leo.
