Theme: Patience versus Haste
There is a emotional tension today which could produce poor decision making. Discipline is your friend. You will be proactive about the path you wish to forge. There is excitement in partnership and mental creativity. There is no transgression like hatred, And no fortitude like patience.~Shantideva
A spontaneous teaching on Bodhicitta by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo:
Be real. It’s not that easy. You decide and your will decides and your will has gotten you where you are. How superficial is that? You have to practice deeply and meditate. And correct yourself from judging sentient beings by practicing Bodhicitta. You don’t just stop yourself from doing it. You go after it with dragon teeth!
Practice deeply. Cut out the ROOT.
And try to practice with others. You are too isolated.
Jetsunma gave rise to this teaching during an interaction with a troubled student:
Oh and don’t forget- 2+2 ALWAYS make 4. No matter what you do, equations are real. Whenever you do “this” “that” will happen. Because they arise interdependently. Think about that. It’s not someday. It’s THE day that it ripens. The causes have already been created.
And that’s what you’re afraid of. It’s what you’re running away from. But you can’t.

Theme: Helpful Transformation
With Pluto, the planet of deep change, in good aspect to a range of personal planets, there is an opportunity for profound psychological insights. This enables change in a smoother way than usual. The Moon moves from the sign of Capricorn to the sign of Aquarius for a few days, bringing a focus on the future and personal freedom. Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.~Carl Sagan
Today the Moon is Void of Course from 4.31 am EDST USA until 5.25 pm. If you’re in another country check what that means for you time-wise. It’s best to avoid making major decisions or signing contracts during this time.

Theme: Appreciation of Beauty
Emotion and mind unite for the next 2 weeks. Appreciation of art, music and poetry is one manifestation. It is easier to communicate your feelings to others. The large number of aspects between planetary energies indicates a busy and productive time. Meditation and prayer can be very helpful if you are feeling confused. Wise men don’t judge — they seek to understand. ~ Wei Wu Wei
The chicks are helping me so much to walk more. And I’m so proud of their happiness and progress.
It’s so much better caring for other sentient beings rather than just oneself. #Happiness
How can you be happy? Take account for your life. What you did. And what the result is. You will learn to do things you never thought you would. Because growing up is beautiful.
Most of my students think they are old. I think they are hardly even mature.

Theme: Accepting limitations
Today there are unavoidable restraints and outcomes. It maybe that you have to choose a different way of doing things. But the bigger picture is that through discipline and hard work, there will be good results. There continues to be a lot of energy for spiritual advancement and growth. I came into the world under the sign of Saturn – the star of the slowest revolution, the planet of detours and delays.~Walter Benjamin

Theme: Confusion or Transcendence
There is opportunity and liability with Neptune, the planet of dissolving ego structures, opposing many personal planets for the next few days. Confusion will occur if you cling tightly to your needs and desires, rather than values which connect you to others. With the Moon in Sagittarius, it’s a good time to expand your horizons. Adventure is worthwhile in itself.~Amelia Earhart

Theme: Grandiosity and Generosity
There is a powerful connection between Jupiter, the planet of expansive optimism, and several other planets. The problem is that you will commit to more than you can handle. At the same time there is an opportunity for generosity, as long as it doesn’t come from a place of grandiosity. This tendency is offset by Saturn, the planet of restraint and discipline. To give up yourself without regret is the greatest generosity.~Bodhidharma

Theme: Going with the flow
With so many planets in mutable signs, there is more flexibility and flow in how you express yourself today. Situations are also more fluid. Communication is more subjective and relationships are amorphous and mysterious. Avoid getting distracted by activities with addictive components. If you have nothing to say, say nothing.~Mark Twain
