Rat Moon Wanes
Can you feel it? This is a really special time we're in. Do you feel lost, or in the dark? Do you feel like the world is falling apart all around you? Good! It means you're in tune. It's not you, it's nature. Allow yourself to be ok with it. Don't make it wrong, that just leads to more suffering. We're currently in the little pit between the full moon and the winter solstice - this is the darkest part of the year. We all need to know what the bottom can feel like.
The trick to getting ahead right now is simple, do nothing. There's nothing to get anyway. The only gain worth getting is rest. Rushing around, making choices, taking actions, closing deals, whatever - save it for the spring and summer months. For now, just chill. Close up shop till February.
If you absolutely must do something, give yourself permission to dream. It's still dragon year, and even the tail has power. Let your imagination run wild and envision your absolute best case scenario in love, life, finance, home, and health. After that, tap into the rat and tackle the tree from the leaves. See your big goal as a bunch of little nibbles and know that you can have it all. Remember that anything's possible - then go back to sleep.
â§ Reverse Engineer your Destiny â§
Utilize the Dragon: Think big. Imagine your best case scenario!
Utilize the Rat: Make it real. Break your dream down to bite size bits!
Let it All Go: It's still winter. Let your vision incubate till spring!
Set it and Forget it!
