So here is my Astrological horoscope for today for Pisces –
“As a calm comes over your emotional life, look for other areas of your life to grow more peaceful as well. For any social outings today, try to choose an intimate spot that’s conducive to private conversations. Avoid crowded places with loud music or a raucous clientele. Even your wardrobe should reflect your inner calmness, and should feature neutral colors and comfortable fabrics that frame your face and let your personality provide all the color.”
I laughed as I read this because I am calmer today and there are definitely other areas that a calming. And my chosen colors for clothing today? Neutral – khaki green slacks, white blouse, khaki vest, and khaki shoes – this before reading my horoscope. I am in the flow today!
The factors that brought out the chaos has not changed much, but my response has. Why? I went back to basics and have spent more time in meditation. At least, that is part of the reason. But here is the main reason:
In one life changing event, we found ourselves driving our youngest daughter to work in Calistoga each and every day. To make this trip less stressful and more enjoyable for our grandson, I take him to different places each week to give him little “science” lessons. This past Monday I took him to the Petrified Forest which he loved. We hiked the small trail and took in the magnitude of the petrified trees. On Tuesday, we decided to visit the Napa Valley State Park. And we took one of the smaller hiking trails.
Now as most of my closest friends know, I have severe osteoarthritis in my left knee. I should have had knee surgery several years ago, but without insurance, it is still not a possibility. Anyway, we hiked and found this amazing creek. How peaceful it is to discover absolute serenity.
And this is why my emotions are calmer and I am responding rather than reacting. I recommend getting back to nature, of course. But this was amazing!
