Greetings Brave Ones! Our current times are certainly unstable and uncertain. Of course, we want to know what’s going to happen, however, life has other plans. The KEY to navigating these times is “stabilization.” Not very sexy, is it? Today I was thinking about earthquakes and how the ground shifts, bends, shakes, and rolls. Buildings that are constructed to withstand earthquakes have the capacity to roll, bend, and sway to avoid destruction. This is how the buildings’ stabilize. We can do that, too! So, here are my suggestions:
1) Shore up your own foundation first. Like the flight attendants say: Put on your own oxygen mask first before helping anyone else.Are you ‘grounded’ in a way that helps you to stabilize your emotional, physical and mental life? Cooking, cleaning, simplifying your daily life are ways to ground.
2) Speaking from personal experience, I’d be crazy as a loon if I didn’t practice sitting meditation every day. It’s a way to directly connect to earth energy. Besides that, it gives you mental clarity.
3) Stop watching so much news on TV, or at least cut back. I find it’s better to read the news online, and bypass the greater emotional impact of watching it on TV.
4) Make your life as meaningful as possible. HINT: Help others who are less fortunate and vulnerable. You’ll find joy there.
5) We on Earth are experiencing the end of a 120-year cycle so, yes, there will be uncertainty, anxiety, and unrest. Stabilize yourself as much as you can. Change what you need to change in order to do that.
6) In your natal chart, in what house is the sign Aquarius located? This will tell you where to put your efforts and the gifts you can offer to the collective. Contact me for a reading!
7) VOTE! Your vote has power!
Take good care!
Til next time,
Yours,
