Be In The Space

In many of the annual readings I give to clients, there is always a “sleepy period” in their forecast, i.e., a low energy-cycle that can manifest as depression, sadness, lethargy, or simple exhaustion. While this is a natural part of the rhythm of life, most people do not like these periods. They beg the need to go off the radar and focus on inward pursuits, and as human beings, living in a world where poor internet speed can be a deal breaker when choosing a Wi-Fi network, our tendency is to fill the space with something. There is always something to do; why waste time resting?

It is when life slows, and there is no place to be, that our minds, hearts, and bodies can begin to integrate what has been “downloaded” in the whirlwind of daily affairs. We reflect on our lives. We consider next steps. We contemplate important decisions. We hunker down. We connect to Source in preparation for what is set to unfold after exiting our sleepy period. That is why these are natural junctures – whether seasonal or personal. It is a time to pause and work through an internal process that desperately needs our attention.

This week, give yourself permission to pause, to reflect, and to be. If you are tired, break for a power nap. If you are experiencing inner stress and turmoil, talk to someone. If you need down time from work, or people, or activism, take it. Align with your own biorhythm. Let your energy ebb and flow like the ocean tides. Breathe in and breathe out, allowing your Soul to wake as your mind rests. Rest hard. When you come out of your sleepy period, have faith that faith will be restored. The cycle continues.

Check your horoscopes to see what’s in store this week ahead, and don’t forget to read for your Ascendant sign too.
