DON'T FORGET WHO YOU ARE

Sometimes we get lost in our everyday activities. Sometimes we get so caught up in existing that we forget to live.

We live each day, working, cleaning, cooking, and enjoying the pleasures that life provides. We focus on living in the moment, experiencing, accepting the lessons and then letting go. We connect on different levels with our inner self and identify with who we believe we are in the material, worldly sense.

Life experiences teach us and often opens doors that might otherwise have remained closed. Life certainly is a teacher, and we the students. This does not diminish as we age. There is never a time in life when we are not learning. Each time we feel stuck or stagnant, we are being taught patience and perseverance.

Have we forgotten our purpose which runs much deeper than just learning?

We get so caught up in the mind’s focus. Our thoughts do not define us. We are not our thoughts. We are the one listening to the thoughts. We run much deeper than our thoughts. Once simply listen to the mind instead of reacting to it, we can separate ourselves from the constant chatter that pulls us in every direction.

We are spiritual entities that have come into this life to experience and to learn, but we have also come into this life to serve and help. The talents we brought into this life suggest that we are here to go far beyond just sleeping, eating, procreating and working. Destiny is calling from its deepest realms asking you to reach within and recognize the real you and to connect.

You can do more than exist. Reach out and help those in need and move in directions that you never thought were attainable. The mysteries of life will unfold to those open to learning, giving and expanding.

Listen to the quiet voice. This voice and our acts of compassion, love and appreciation promote growth and truth.

LIFE IS THE TASK MAKER

Life does not move along smoothly without lessons. We live day to day embarking on our journey pushing forward with our own specific intent. We pursue our goals, build on our achievements, advance our causes and formulate an action plan for the future. In many cases we really do not know what lies ahead, but we do have to make goals. Our aspirations sometimes exceed our expectations and sometimes they fall short.

There are many lessons along the way, and we move through them at our own pace. Some work through challenges without resistance, while others have great difficulty moving through adversity. Life is not easy but it is not all problematic either. Attitude of course plays a significant role in how life feels and regardless of achievement or failure our attitude magnified whatever we focus on.

Important lessons are often taught in times of strife, and anxiety can build as we maneuver our way forward. Anxiety and stress can have profound influences on our health and wellbeing, and we must find ways to alleviate the worry caused by our expectations and anticipation.

Recognition that our focus on life is beyond significant is an important lesson and is a great tool to move beyond a hard lesson or to not make a lesson larger than it has to be.

When we move into the times between lessons (our reflection or rest period) it is important to recognize just how fortunate these times are. Be thankful. Appreciation is important.

There are many who do not live the lives we live in the Western World and their struggles are beyond anything we might ever experience. Recognize that we are fortunate.

Take advantage of the lessons that come your way. They are not punishment; they are growth opportunities. Take responsibility for whatever lessons you are to learn as on some level you will grow from them. In many cases, change, which is often a byproduct of challenge, places us right on path and moves us where we need to go, even though we may not see it at that time. Accept adversity and learn and then let it go. Nothing is permanent. The experience of anxiety or worry is human but it is a choice.

TRANSITING SATURN SQUARE NATAL MARS

The square aspect (90° of separation) has been known to create conflicts, tension, and strain. They are not considered an easy aspect and there is often a lot of push and pull with some degree of power struggle. It is best to deal with the issues at hand and cooperate, finding a compromise and resolution to the problem at hand.

In the birth (natal) chart, a square indicates that there is a conflict with two planets and we have to deal with the problem. A struggle with life’s balance is at hand and inner reflection often produces a resolution.

There will be a real push and pull when it comes to these two planets we are focusing on in this post. Saturn is quite comfortable with “the known” and seeks structure and reliability. Mars on the other hand wants change and pushes for action and resolution when there is a conflict. Starts and stops can be expected and concerns with direction and making the wrong choices are part of the energy. Saturn says I like things as they are and Mars says I want change and action.

Sometimes Saturn speaks about objectives that you have worked hard to obtain. This can be related to our profession, relationships and objectivity. Mars looks for action and although the energies of Mars seem to be blocked and even under attacked during this time it is due to the concern that change might not be a good thing. It is a time to give a little and make compromises. Perhaps you can hold on to some things but in reality you should be letting go. This will take energy and you may not feel like you have staying power right now.

Squares between planets are stressful and create tension and crisis on some level. However, the energies are frustrating enough that they force us into action to create a compromise or a viable solution to the problem. Moving ahead is likely what is being called for but holding on to what has proven to have value should also be part of the process. You are trying to find balance through concise action. This compromise may not be at all pleasing to you at first but over time you will find that this was necessary and the best route to take to avoid confrontation or misalignment.
