Star date 77967.4. I write to you from my bed, where I will be resting a lot of the time now until things are in motion again. I will not force this process. Instead, I will take care of myself, take care of business, and take each day as it comes.
We are over the half way mark in the year, and anyone who pays attention is concerned and absolutely exhausted.
The number 6 is about harmonization of that which has dissonance. In this month’s video, I discussed how much that dissonance is felt with the unbalanced polarity of our times. The 8 is a serious karmic number. When combined with this month’s 6, which can often denote familial responsibilities and our relationships, I think July could mean taking responsibility for the role we’ve played in our lives in this context.
Aside from this, this message is also your reminder that when you take sick time, watch your favorite show, sleep, and simply be, you are not wasting time. These are investments that you make towards yourself. You are not a waste of time. When we nurture ourselves, we have more to give to our community.
I think many of us are battle weary in one way or another - no two instances are quite alike. My advice this month is simple: water what you want to grow. If difficult feelings or circumstances are creating an internal blockage, dont try to distract yourself, that will only prolong the inevitable. Let yourself feel what you are feeling until you are able to move through it.
A softer approach is called for this month, and I hope that anyone who is having a hard time is able to be patient with themselves as they navigate this chapter.
July is for rest. Let’s take a month to address needs that were placed on the back-burner, or that were overlooked, so that we may feel like ourselves again.
