THE BEST YOU CAN BE

There is so much talk about being the best version of yourself.  That would be ideal, but realistically, we are human beings, with flaws and shortcomings.  No one is perfect and those that believe they are can take a second look.

 

You will make mistakes along the way.  You will do things that you wish you had never done.  You will say things that you will regret later.  There is no doubt about this. The more we work on ourselves certainly the less frequent these events occur.

 

Are we supposed to get caught up in trying to do everything perfectly?

 

Are we supposed to live our lives for the sake of the judgement of others?

 

Life is about learning and sometimes we learn the greatest lessons from things that we may have done in error.  “Wrong” is a judgement.  You have to recognize a mistake as being incorrect.

 

According to merriam-webster.com a “mistake” by definition is “a wrong action or statement proceeding from faulty judgment, inadequate knowledge, or inattention”. There is no calculated intention. It just came about without a concentrated effort.  Sometimes things just happen.

 

We are not perfect beings, but we can pay closer attention to how we live our lives, to the way we receive others and our interaction, especially with those we love.  We tend to allow our worst when in the company of those we are comfortable with.  It is not malicious intent (at least unless we are provoked). When provoked it is certainly not acceptable to use violence or intend to emotionally hurt others.

 

Live your life to the best of your abilities.  Know that you will make mistakes along the way. You are human with emotions, but also recognize the fact that others do as well.  Even those that do not show emotion have sensitivity that is either not easily brought to the surface or is held back.

 

In the heat of the moment, most people think that anything goes, but we must take responsibility for our words and our actions.

 

Pick your battles and gauge what is worth arguing over and in some circumstance whether it is important to be right. 

 

Physical violence is inexcusable and so are hurtful intentions (whether words or actions) with or without provocation. 

 

As it is said “sometimes s*&t happens” so don’t be too hard on yourself. Learn from your mistakes and be the best you can be. With the right intent and self-control, we can be compassionate and understanding even in the heat of the moment.

COMMITMENTS

We have recently touched on the important of keeping our promises.  This topic has been brought up quite regularly of late.  So, we will continue.

 

How do you feel when someone promises something and then does not follow through with what they promised? 

 

Our own feelings and experiences help us to understand just how important it is to adhere to our commitments.  We know through experience just how it feels to be on the receiving end of this issue (or should I say “not receiving” end).

 

If you make a promise, it is imperative to stick to it.  Your word is important. If you don’t follow through, your word starts to lose its value and validity.  Don’t make a promise unless you are able to follow through. 

 

Sometimes we speak without forethought and say things without thinking about the consequences if we do not do what we promised. 

 

Most people are not in the habit of making promises they do not intend to keep. In most cases, the promise comes from the heart and is made with good intentions, but intensions are just that, not viable outcomes, just intensions. 

 

Next time you are ready to make a commitment, be sure that you can and will follow through.  A moment of contemplation can be invaluable for both you and those you are dealing with. 

 

Intensions are good, but can you follow through?

NEW MOON JANUARY 11, 2024

This New Moon falls in the sign of Capricorn at 20° 44” on January 11, 2024, at 6:57 am EST. 

 

A new moon is a Conjunction of the Sun and the Moon. This Conjunction of the Sun and Moon also makes a Trine to Transiting Uranus which is at 19° Taurus. 

 The energies of Uranus are known as the awakener and the driving force behind change that is required at the time.  Uranus pushes us in new directions because our current path no longer suits our evolutionary process.

 

If you have planets or angles within 3° of this placement either by Conjunction or Opposition and to a lesser degree Square, Trine and Sextile, you will be influenced by this New Moon’s energies.  Check the houses of all planets and angles involved in your chart to get a full picture of what areas of life will be influenced.

 

The object of a New Moon is to set your intensions for a long-term goal that will manifest its energies by the time we have our Full Moon in Capricorn some six months from now.  Prepare yourself for what you deem important at this time.  It might be advisable to write your intensions or goals down. When we write something on paper, we set our intensions beyond just a mental concept.

 

There is a degree of indecision or hesitation when we are talking about Capricorn (which is ruled by Saturn).  Saturn is overly cautious and worried until its energies has been committed to something.  Due to Saturn’s influence, focus your goals around business pursuits and long-range plans. 

 

You must understand that you will have to work towards these objectives and there can be no half measures about this.  What you put into your goals will be scrutinized when we have our Capricorn Full Moon. Sometimes we can make changes along the way that better suit the situation although with Capricorn these changes may not come easily.  Uranus, however, will want you to jump but Saturn will want you to resist.

 

You will have to consciously plan your route of intension often bringing something new and exciting into life.  If you already had made plans prior to this New Moon, then you can look to see what is left to do to attain your goals.  In many cases, however, we begin something new under the New Moon energies. Capture these energies and use them to your advantage.  It is always more productive to work with the energies at hand, then to fight them and struggle with something unrelated.
