The 31st is a Good Day To . . . proceed with care. Our New Year’s Eve temptation will be to indulge in something unhealthy that is specific to our past. This develops only because our instincts are off, corrupted by all those things we’ve been ignoring or in denial of. They’re like whispers urging us to backslide, give up, not love ourselves. We do best to listen for and be open to the genuine Love around us, and to offer this to others in our communications; the challenge is that what’s authentic may not look as we expect it to, and what we usually see as loving may take on a very different hue today. We have to be open to seeing interactions and expressions for what they are, and to seeing what they actually mean. We benefit by thinking–a simple formula, but one we may consider dodging for any number of reasons! Just don’t. Have a very happy and safe start to the New Year!

The 30th is a Good Day To . . . engage in radical and radically original thinking. Spontaneous communication is the most enlightening, informed as it will be by Higher Mind. Apply what’s most unique within a situation or even within yourself to understanding the present and its connection to the past. Carry on!

The 29th is a Good Day To . . . watch out! There’s a current, uncanny mix of actions and choices that ride on the over-confident shoulders of all those matters that enrage us, or that we are fundamentally in denial of, and that are consistently in disharmony with the instincts and what we ‘know but don’t know’ add to that thinking rooted in the complex of the wound, and a relatively incredible kind of luck, opportunity, and harmony with our opposite number or complementary part. Feels stressful only if we think about it too much; otherwise we are off to the races, for good or ill. Just try to be as conscious as possible concerning our own and others’ hidden motives, and be aware that whatever happens that stems from our place within the social order, it’s without question actually in our favor (that is, the social order may save us from ourselves!)

The 27th is a Good Day To . . . listen fully and completely to that wave of creative power, because it leads directly to Self-possession and full empowerment. Actions based on belief and/ or ‘the facts’, or that are attuned to offering aid within the social order, go brilliantly, and the Sun shines on us, bringing ‘luck’, resourcefulness, and access to opportunity. It all sounds great, right? The one thing we must avoid is overthinking, exaggerating things in our own minds as we look for mental justification of whatever comes at us via a search of our intuitive faculties; that will only take us into a place where we question our values and priorities, and that’s unnecessary, as well as unworthy of our time.

The 26th is a Good Day To . . . let go and follow our instincts for what to do, as trying to sort out the mental picture, the reasoning behind our choices, or the ‘correct’ way to go is beyond us, today. We’re confused about both values and our own level of empowerment, thrown for a loop by relationship or financial vagaries, and may take a brooding stance; with this latter we search the landscape for justification, rather than seeing the mood spring from realities. In some important way we’re ‘chasing the dragon’, lost in delusion or misunderstanding; though this energy is essentially creative, it will in this instance repeatedly take us to a dark place. So, act and choose without much mental preamble or emotional impetus, refuse to hold out for total understanding, and things will turn out better than we might otherwise think.

The 24th is a Good Day To . . . know that if we’re acting with the future in mind, we’ll screw it up–but if we instead stay in the moment and focus on what we value right now, we’ll find inspiration and express some of our most original and forward-thinking ideas. Let tomorrow go–it will take care of itself–you only need to be your best and most unique Self today–that’s something no one else can do!

The 23rd is a Good Day To . . . refuse to tie ourselves in knots! Our minds go to ambition fulfillment, but our attention is on hurts and how we’ve been wronged. It’s the perfect formula for spinning our wheels, getting nowhere, but managing to sling a lot of mud–and if we do, it will cover us as much as it hits anybody we’re angry or frustrated with. Unfortunately, we may think we’re making progress, but it’s almost certain that our efforts backed by emotion will fail. Relax. There’s a rhythm for things–listen for it.

The 22nd is a Good Day To . . . make change happen. Reform, reincarnation, remodels, and resurrections are on the agenda in just about any area you care to address. We need to proceed cautiously, though, need to know our own minds, so that we don’t turn on ourselves or on some aspect of our uniqueness. Our value really is in our originality, but that might be hard to see (or believe) today; instead concentrate on re-making something you care about into a better form than it now embodies.
