The downside of a schedule is that we often follow it to a “T” and allow it to lead us absolutely. We focus on what we “should” be doing - many times totally losing touch with the present moment and what’s happening right now. Emotions are stuffed until a better time (which usually never comes around until we are forced to face it). People are often pushed aside for tasks that seem to require attention. A more whole approach to time would be to dance with it. If you think about dancing and reflect on the analogy of it, it’s very easy to see.

I always love playing with life and the exploration of it. A classic Sagittarius, some say… In recent weeks I’ve been working on my biggest projects (both work and creative endeavors) and developing them greatly. What I am doing now is more heartfelt than ever before. However, it also brings an overwhelm of things to do… This month brings the opportunity to push these projects through on a new level.

Keep consistent open navigation. Notice new ideas and methods. Create regular space to receive creative ideas and fresh opportunities. Nurture energy with healthy conditions and cleanse excesses. Go toward where happiness is felt in the heart. Autumn’s harvest is just around the corner… what are you harvesting? Enjoy the last two weeks of ...
