Things may feel out of balance, out of flow, not as symbiotic or sympathetic as usual.  If this works for you, yay!  Otherwise, slow down.  Going faster will NOT pull things together.  And, oh yeah, breathe.

******************************************

I've been out of town for a few days, so it's been awhile, (hi!), but I totally remember this one.  Because it worked backwards.

Instead of slowing down, in order to accomplish my goals, I would have done better to go faster.  But every time I felt the urge to speed up, I instead sat down (figuratively - well, and literally once, when I was waiting for something. *G*.)  So, I lost an opportunity I had been waiting for, to have a long conversation with someone.

So while it is true that going faster will not pull things together...  because I do tend to lose things, and I don't multi-task well... it is perhaps time to practice moving with more purpose.  Taking a step back or a deep breath does not mean losing momentum.

Of course, the optimist in me says it turned out the way it needed to be.  Perhaps more conversation would have been ended up putting too many ideas in my head, and I wouldn't have remembered what I wanted to.  (They made the note taking phones just for me!)  Or...

Wait, no second guessing.  No back tracking.  From this point of view at this time, I would like to have had more time for conversation.  So my lesson is, if it says things may feel out of flow, I might want to check twice about what I think the flow is.

Recalling a past success or focusing on a goal nearing completion will help bring feelings back into balance.

I hope you have a great day!

Is the energy you're putting out there what you want to put out there?  Is your influence in line with your truths?

***********************************************

Well, the last two days, I have been pretty UNenergetic.  Perhaps the cold (which is extreme in my perception) has tapped the ancient urge to hibernate.  So I cannot say I brought this reading much to mind.  In fact, my influence has been missing the last two days - at least in doing the readings - because I was so focused on whether I was actually warm enough to get out of my chair.

I still desire to do the readings.  I enjoy them.  But I seem to be stumbling over (or playing with) the delivery of the readings.  Video camera on tripod, phone camera, quick snapshot; with intro or summation; wordiness of written reading... the question may come down to, how much work do I want to do related to the readings?

The answer may be, not that much.  Hmm.  So, I may be pondering this reading a little while longer.

Be patient, be attentive; be still.  The balance, the inspiration, will come to you, but it has to be able to find you.

I hope you have a great day!

Things may feel off kilter today, and attention is pulled to one side.  Is it because that side needs more attention?  Or do you prefer to focus on the other side to restore the balance?

****************************
 I did less work yesterday than I would have liked, but I really enjoyed my rest times.  I did, obviously, do the rune readings.  And I managed to get some writing done.  But, I didn't do any bookkeeping work yesterday, and now I feel like I'm pushing myself and berating myself because of it.

Or maybe it's simply the push of productivity is back today.  Do do do!  Which is wonderful.  However, that's no reason to jump on my past self with both feet.  I enjoyed the time I wasn't feeling the push.  And it did make me very happy, to lollygag a little.  I didn't sit down and read a whole book all at once... sigh.  Which shows me I did accomplish things yesterday.  And yes, I do consider interacting with others an accomplishment *G*.

So, to sum up, the imbalance was the lack of logic and "practical" work.  (though I did get 1 load of laundry done.)  Yesterday I was happy with my choices; today I am feeling a little panicked.

But, what do we say?  There are no mistakes.

I was happy.  So.  Yay me.  Now I can just get off my back.

Yes, it's possible you missed something today.  So stop and check your work.  Then move on. Don't let the fear of mistakes be the driving factor today.

I hope you have a great day!

It's okay to be emotional, impatient, exuberant in our nurturing today.  To be human is to be passionate (& occasionally pissed off.)

**************************
I did keep this reading in mind through my day, as I interacted with others.  Trying to remind myself I didn't have to just sit aside and let others vent; I could put in my two cents of truth.  But instead it seemed to come down to my body putting its two cents in.

By the end of the day, all I wanted was to stare at the television and whine a little about how poorly I felt.  Which is a big no-no, in vocabulary terms.  But, the truth was i didn't want to play anymore.  So, when my partner suggested I take a day off from electronics (which in essence meant not to any work at all), my first thought was - phhssshhhhttt.  How dare he think he knows what's wrong with me?  (and yeah, my second thought was, but how do I take a day off without television, e-reader, or video games?)

Then I thought, since taking health advice from him would be the exact opposite of what I normally do, maybe Berkano and MannazR are saying I should listen.  The epitome of cranky nurturing?

So yesterday I had an interesting day NOT using any of my electronic communications devices.  It was rough, I must say.  These days I don't even write unless I'm sure it's going onto the Sky Drive; because Fates Forbid I should lose one precious scrap of wisdom that falls from my ears.  And today is more of a day I'd like to take off.  After all, the washing machine isn't working, so that's a sign to take it easy, right?  So, I don't quite know if I "applied the reading correctly".  Shrug.

Interestingly, MannazR is showing again today.  Makes me wonder....

Today, the balance between physical & spiritual energies may feel off kilter.  Is this good?  Or is it time to redress the balance?

***************

All I can tell you is my physical balance was so off kilter, I sat on the couch, watched a movie, then went to bed and read.  (I did not post this on it's day.)  Was it good?  Not so much.  

I hope you had a great day.
