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.

The 21st is a Good Day To . . . see the benefits to be had from the wound, the missed opportunity, in things not going the way you thought they would. It’s a day of blessings disguised as recent denials or misses or hurts that, when you step back from them, will either currently or in the near future reveal how really rewarding it was that you didn’t get what you were after. Maybe hard to see (or believe) now, but it will become glaringly apparent very soon.

The 20th is a Good Day To . . . stick with what’s solid and real, no matter how you define it, because what’s truly beautiful is what’s real–and that tells you that anything frightening or ugly is actually an illusion. Knowing that may keep you from overreacting to the unpleasant, as its unreal nature is a tell that it’s someone’s effort to control you or channel your energy. There are only two factors that may help someone succeed in fooling you: one is if you provide unhealthy thoughts on which they can build, or if you reject your own uniqueness and originality; being ashamed of who you are opens the door for someone else to steal your energy, time, or talents. Otherwise, you have the chance to see Venus in some real-world form, delivered directly to your doorstep.

The 19th is a Good Day To . . . make things happen in the material realm. The only hitch is: base your choices on physical reality, not on your wishes, imagination, fantasies, or delusions (that last really hard, because, how do you know it’s a delusion, right?) Creative needs may leak out, especially in communications, but it’s in manipulating the material surroundings that we can control and excel. Rebellion when we try to go on instinct or auto-pilot is a distinct possibility, with the feeling a signal that we are in dangerous territory, in terms of effective decision-making.

The 18th is a Good Day To . . . excavate what’s really on our minds, delve into what we really care about, and to ‘shake the tree’ to make sure the roots are deep and securely grounded. Today our power and ability to affect our surroundings comes directly from having clear values, operating with Love, and communicating with Truth (the kind that just is, that carries no ill intent, not the kind that gets a wee burst of delight from shredding others!) Pure intentions, and acceptance of reality without a negative emotional judgment of it, will take us much farther than we think we can go.

The 17th is a Good Day To . . . ask ourselves why our instincts and intuitions seem to be so unreliable today? We’re sensing change, trying to parse it out through intuition and instinct, and yet the conscious messages we’re receiving tell us things are set in stone, going nowhere, and even that our values are flawed, and need modification–and that causes us to doubt our senses and our feelings, and makes it seem that we’re called to fight every issue that enrages us or that we’d hoped to ignore. Let’s just say these assessments are inaccurate. But there are two things we can count on: attention to relationships and financial realities will ground us, and that in reality, our thoughts/ communications can change worlds–just be aware of their power, and know that this shaping can’t be consciously driven; we’ll be lucky if we can dodge any unanticipated ill effects, while at the same time we have an equal chance of taking advantage of serendipitous ones.

The 16th is a Good Day To . . . know that our rewards, the treasures, the pay offs, and the Love are all to be found today by dealing unflinchingly with those matters we’ve previously ignored, denied, or that have enraged us. What we’ll discover is that many of the things we’ve been avoiding are specters, illusions, untruths, and the haunting embroideries spun by our own imaginations–and what a relief, then, to find that for the most part there’s nothing so bad to be dealt with, after all.
