Month: December 2010

You need to step into it, but there is still a tendency to foot dragging. You know what has to be done but you can’t quite get there. You are frustrated with ruminating about it but this feeling of indecision will probably last for another 3 months or so. Try to go easy on yourself as this is a process that has it’s own time table. You have to be patient.

We learn through repetition and in life situations will continually repeat themselves until we discover how to effectively deal with them. Once we find the solution, we can move on to the next phase of development. This just seems to be in the nature of things. It’s not some omnipotent authority designing problems for us to solve. It’s just in the nature of things.

We spend most of our waking hours working on problems of one form or another. This happens unconsciously as well as consciously. So even when you don’t think you are doing something, you are. We are constantly evolving toward our higher self. Not just those people who would like to evolve but those who could care less. It’s happening at every moment in life to everyone.

We cross paths with many people and places and things all for the sake of evolution. It’s that thing that you cannot prevent from happening. You are evolving toward your higher self, like it or not. Remember that the most peaceful path is the least wearing. You can be peaceful without losing your identity. You can be yourself without harming others. You can express your values without regret. You just have to be patient.

The week starts out with Mercury conjunct the Sun in Sagittarius. This results in a subjective way of viewing the world. It doesn’t matter if you are subjective or objective you can be wrong about your perceptions. Then even objectivity got a lot of people into a lot of trouble. It is difficult to know when you are seeing things as they really are. I suppose it requires trial and error. Your thinking is always accompanied by a lot of emotional attachments. When you free yourself from these attachments, you are more likely to have the right perspective.

Unfortunately or fortunately you have passed by the pivotal decision making point. Things will now be determined by whatever perceptions you have acted upon. In the future, your purpose is to find the most accurate perspective. Suffering comes from having the wrong thinking. It is in your power to choose the right way of looking at things.

You should always have hope. If you take your hope away, then you will be depressed and uncertain. Optimism is absolutely necessary to good mental health. If you don’t think you can do something, then you can’t. Take a critical look at your skills and objectives and make the necessary adjustments to fulfill your dreams. Only you can change yourself. You cannot change other people. Do the work that will get you to your destination. Take a chance on yourself.

Finally you find yourself focusing on the details. You are able to create a “to do” list and actually get it all done. This gives you the sense that you are actually making some concrete progress. Although, you have been getting things done up until now, it has just seemed like a big jumble. Now you see that things are finally starting to take shape and you feel good about it.

Still there are events that are beyond your control. It is hard to make rigid plans when so much still remains up in the air. You don’t know whether to make a commitment or to remain on the fence until you are sure which direction things are headed. Take small steps and go forward even if you are not sure of the outcome. Doing something takes away from the anxiety.

There are opposing factions at work. Both sides are extreme and polarized in their views. You must be the bridge that allows others to view the reality of the situation. Don’t try to influence others with your point of view but remain steady in your purpose. People will notice that you seem to have an objective. If we all stick to taking care of our own business, then everyone else, hopefully, will do the same.

A guiding light appears to give you direction. Trust your own instincts.

Death is not worth dying. Difficult as the times have recently been, there is still cause for hope. Although the news seems to get worse and worse by the moment, there is apparently an astrological light at the end of the tunnel. People seem to be argumentative or just outright rude. This is a passing phase. Do not despair, circumstances will soon give way to a more cheerful and jovial attitude.

Ordinary people are not currently well informed. There seems to be an information gap that is leaving them behind the “eight ball”. Nevertheless, they can voice their point of view and not feel the least bit guilty about it. Spit it out. You need to give expression to angry and hostile feelings. However, try to unwind these feelings slowly. Don’t blow a gasket.

Like the “eight ball” would say “Ask again later”. If you don’t get what you want, show that you are persistent but not insistent. Persistence requires that you integrate time. Keep trying but don’t overdo it. Knowing the right measure is not easy. You have you make mistakes before you can develop the right approach.

Better days are ahead…really. Just remember to stay focused and don’t ever give up. If other people think you are wasting your time…that you should give it up, follow your own instincts. It’s your time to waste. It’s your life to live. Learn to use your own power.
