Gate 27, The Gate of Caring

April 22 - April 27

RESPECT YOURSELF, RESPECT YOUR OWN INNER VOICE, AND HAVE HEALTHY AND LOVING BOUNDARIES

This transit brings the energy of caring, nurturing and nourishing. At its highest expression this is the energy of compassion for others … and remembering that self-care comes first.

The current state of the world has brought this opportunity for us to find new ways to care for ourselves and others. While there is no doubt the situation has brought so many hardships to many … it has also brought an opportunity to go within and find out how to support your well-being and the well-being of those closest to you.

It’s usually easy to have compassion for those you care about. But how compassionate are you with yourself?

Consider finding something that nourishes your soul and brings you joy. Then, love yourself enough to make room for it in your life. Being full of joy can nourish everyone around you in the very best way.

There are so very many ways to nourish yourself and others … good food, loving touch, kind words … the composer of an inspiring piece of music also provides nourishment — to humanity in general — by caring deeply and offering their creativity to the world.

So, how do your thoughts shape and nurture your experience of life?

Can you look inside yourself to see if your thoughts affect what’s happening outside of yourself?

Do your thoughts focus on the belief that life is working for you or against you?

What you think about colors the environment you meet. This may be a time to examine your motivations, thoughts and actions so that you can move in sync with what you want to create to nourish yourself and be full of joy.

Smile and watch how the world responds.

Be open to life’s benevolence and allow it to fill you.

Love Yourself,
