Gate 10, Gate of Behavior of the Self – Treading
December 19 - 24
WILL YOU DISCOVER THE PLEASURE OF TREADING IN LIFE’S MYSTERY?
Could it be a time to look deeply at small things, to feel at home in the world and to be exactly who you really are?
This transit brings the energy of loving yourself and the way you behave in the world. It can bring a focus on your behavior and the behavior of others. And, the grounding forces calls for balance and adaptation. Will you find the balance between learning from experience and being open to the unknown?
So, if you don’t love yourself how is it possible to find meaning and the correct direction your life should take? Perhaps it’s time to align your behavior with who you truly are and express that in the world.
Tread softly … and express your unique code of behavior that invites successful relationships under any circumstances and no matter what else is going on around you.
And, when your path isn’t clear you can stop, breath, and look around to see where you’re currently headed. How is life speaking to you in nuances and serendipity?
The small decisions you make today will shape your tomorrow … mindfully observe the signs. If you’re walking around with your head up in the clouds, you may miss what’s right in front of you.
Each of you has an entirely different purpose, so looking at someone else’s path may get you lost.
Use what talent you possess; the woods would be silent if no birds sang except those that sang best. – Henry Van Dyke
Is it time to look at where you’re going in life?
In times of difficulty, you may need to sit with your emotions. Can you observe without acting? In this way you can allow your feelings to have life within you without labeling them good or bad.
Can you be compassionate, understanding and accepting of the diverse and opposite tempos that are a part of humanity? Each day and each way reveal a piece of the puzzle of life that reveals your character and moves you toward your destiny.
And so, may this transit allow you to be more conscious of your steps and coax you to reconnect with ‘your’ way.
Discover the pleasure of treading in life’s mystery.
Love Yourself,
Ruth Brennan
