horoscope craziness

i put a lot of stock into horoscopes.

really though, i put a lot of stock into things a lot of people might like to call “spiritual mumbo-jumbo” (uh, i have no idea who would actually say that).

rob brezsney continually blows my mind. he posts weekly horoscopes so freakishly spot on it leaves me sputtering and stuttering “but…what…how…i…what…?” for minutes. then hours. then days. like this week. this week left me covered in chills.

“Sentiment without action is the ruin of the soul,” said environmentalist Edward Abbey. The “ruin” doesn’t happen all of a sudden, because of a single small failure to translate sincere intentions into good works. Rather, it’s the result of long-running laziness or passivity — a consistent inability to do what one’s passions demand. If there is even a shred of this tendency in your make-up, Libra, now is an urgent time to shed it. According to my astrological analysis, you simply must carry out your soul’s mandates.

um.

can we talk about this for a second?

sentiment without action? talking about wanting recovery desperately yet not applying the effort needed?
long-running laziness or passivity? the “i’ll start tomorrow” mentality i’ve been carrying around for months?
consistent inability to do what one’s passions demand? like committing to health and happiness and wholeness?

i am thrilled and scared and enveloped in overwhelming awe.

today, i read my daily om horoscope.

Positive Surprises
Libra Daily Horoscope
News from your loved ones or close friends might take you off guard but could nevertheless make you feel excited today. It may be that you have heard the unexpected, and you feel that everything you have known and thought up to this point has changed in some way. Even if what you hear is not entirely positive, perhaps today you can look upon this surprise as a sign from the universe that some part of your life should change. Seeing the positive aspect of the unforeseen might help you understand that everything that happens to you and around you could be an opportunity to do something different and challenge yourself. This may even make it easier for you to accept that the things that occur out of the blue are not extraordinary but a normal and essential part of life.

um.

sign from the universe (my favorites) that some part of my life should change?

what i’ve cracked this all up to be is this: something is happening. i feel something changing, shifting, clicking into place. i feel differently each morning i wake up. it started on sunday and hasn’t stopped. i cannot tell you what’s going on because i cannot quite understand it myself.

all i know is this: i gotta carry out my soul’s mandates. and fast.

do you put any stock into horoscopes? or any type of spiritual stuff?

(okay, so, i’ve looked at a ton of different horoscopes today and all of them indicate things are changing, that i am realizing the need for change. no wonder i feel a shift!)
