Settling in to a slower pace isn’t as easy as it sounds. Nevertheless, it’s a smart idea to relax while you can because the pace is going to pick up again later in the day. Try practicing reliable techniques such as yoga, t’ai chi or meditation. If you have excess energy, take a walk, work in the garden or do something creative. Just make sure you partake in activities that rejuvenate you rather than depleting you.
It might seem as if someone is pushing your emotional buttons now just to upset you, but your resistance is strong and you won’t likely get involved in other people’s dramas. Your stubbornness works in your favor when establishing your boundaries today. You can be bull-headed yet, thankfully, others won’t take your lack of interest as a personal rejection. Nevertheless, give yourself permission to change your mind at the last moment.
Your imagination is busy with captivating fantasies today, challenging you to stay focused on the events in the outer world. However, you may actually become single-minded as you mull the same image over and over again in your daydream. Don’t worry; your current obsession won’t last long and soon you will be back to your old playful and productive self once more.
Your mind doggedly pulls you into the future, whether or not you’re ready for it. However, your current thoughts aren’t just idle musings; you’re actually laying the foundation for what will unfold over the months ahead. Instead of cutting yourself off from the connections to your own memories, weave them into your dreams. Your subconscious will do the rest.
You might feel uneasy today with the expectations of others conflicting with your own ideas about how you want to spend your day. Try to avoid bringing a conflict to a head now, for it probably won’t resolve the tension anyhow. Instead, accept the differences between your needs and your reality. Discussing your worries with a good friend over the weekend will help to soothe your concerns.
It’s difficult to find satisfaction today because your plans seem to be getting cold while sitting on the back burner. But even if some larger pieces of the puzzle are out of place, enough of the smaller ones fit so well that the energy still flows. Nevertheless, you’re wise to take it slowly and use this time to rejuvenate and prepare for the next adventure around the corner.
It may seem readily apparent to you that others are attempting to influence your feelings in an indirect way today. Unfortunately, your friends won’t come right out and say what they want. Instead, you feel an awkward undercurrent and there isn’t much you can do about it other than recognizing it for what it is. It’s crucial to remember that you don’t need to sink to a level of retaliation. Moving ahead with your own agenda is your best course of action.
You might feel as if others are trying to make something appear less complicated than it is now. You are all too familiar with the truth, but cannot get anyone to see it from your perspective. Accept that there are totally different ways of looking at a similar experience. Multiple points of view bring much-needed awareness and choice. Seeking common ground increases your chances for success.
You’re off in your own world today, reminiscing about a recent trip or planning your next one. However, reality keeps calling you back to the boring tasks at hand. Although you might rather be somewhere else, it’s necessary to concentrate on your current work now. Take care of chores as soon as possible and you’ll be able to enjoy yourself without remorse over the weekend.
A gentle dance between your heart and your head can lure you into socially warm waters today. You might feel as if you are trying to overcome some old limitations that are based on an unpleasant memory. Fortunately, the past is over and you aren’t tied to yesterday. Your current truths are quite different now. There’s not as much risk in the present moment as you think. Just do what comes naturally and enjoy the ride.
Be cautious about your interactions with others today since complex emotional issues can drain you of much-needed energy. You don’t need to take someone else’s problems and automatically make them yours, even if you care a great deal about the people involved. Listen with an open heart, but keep some of your feelings private, nonetheless.
This relatively quiet day can turn chatty if a co-worker tells you more than you need to know. However, you cannot just ignore someone in need when he or she comes to you with a problem. Thankfully, lending a helping hand doesn’t mean giving up your own agenda. Let others know your limits and then stick to them.
