Daily Motivator for Oct. 28 – The best of now

The best of now

Now is the time to make a difference. Now is the moment to do what you know  you must do.

Now is when you can transform possibility into reality. Now is when you can  bring your dreams to life.

Is there a problem that’s been frustrating you? Now is when you can take  real, focused action to work your way through it.

Sure, there are plenty of ways to waste this day. But you now have the chance  to choose to make good and valuable use of it.

Now is an opportunity to create value. And that opportunity cannot be delayed  until later.

Now is yours to use for whatever rich and fulfilling purpose you can imagine.  Stand up, step forward, and get busy making the very best of now.

— Ralph Marston

Daily Motivator for October 6 – You are successful

You are successful

You are successful at being you. Even if no one else acknowledges that  success, it is real and it is yours.

You can expand upon your success. You can improve upon that success.

You have endured every challenge that has come your way. Now you are in a  position to move forward in whatever direction you choose.

You are a survivor, and yet life is about so much more than mere survival.  You are a dreamer, and now is the time to live your dreams.

Give yourself credit for the success you’ve already created and for the value  you continue to create. Then give yourself a meaningful goal that is worthy of  the successful person you are.

See your success, feel your success, and make the commitment to build on it  right now. You are successful, and this is the moment to live and enrich your  success.

“THINK on THESE THINGS” for October 2

“THINK on THESE THINGS”
By Joyce Sequichie Hifler

Aim high, even though it seems at the moment you’ll never reach that cherished dream. It is your duty to lift yourself above mediocrity. And if you’re afraid your dream will sound foolish, then don’t talk about it, work for it.

Some dreams have gossamer wings, too fragile to discuss. We can be so zealous about our plans that we talk away the mystery and lose interest in the things we’ve begun. Zeal can burn itself out in one, quick, bright flame, or it can be nurtured into strength that is the basis for greatness.

If dreams have substance, then they may well come true. And if they are in line with the law of good, then there will be someone who wants to help. To have the desire to do something that will benefit others, the desire to serve, is to have a dream with solid possibilities.

The aims, then, must be deserving as to become duties. It falls to certain individuals to develop a gift and to use it in helping other people. As German philosopher Immanuel Kant has written, “What are the aims which are at the same time duties? They are the perfecting of ourselves and the happiness of others.”

Daily Motivator for Sept. 21 – Enjoy life itself

Enjoy life itself

The simple, common things in life can be just as enjoyable as the big,  impressive things. When you make the choice to enjoy life itself, you’ll find  yourself being lifted up by anything and everything.

Enjoy life itself, with all the ups and downs, and you won’t waste your  precious time worrying about what’s coming next. Relish the experience of life  itself, and every day will be filled with opportunities for true joy.

It’s great to have big, wonderful, meaningful dreams and ambitions. But you  don’t want to postpone your enjoyment of life until after those dreams are  realized.

Instead, find joy in the everyday process of bringing your dreams about. Find  your joy in the everyday moments of life itself.

You don’t have to wish or beg or hope or struggle for more. You already have  life itself, and the more of it you live, the more of its goodness you have.

Rather than putting conditions and judgments on your experiences, simply  enjoy life itself. And in that joy, you’ll find life getting better and  better.

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, September 11

We might choose security today over taking risks as the nurturing Cancer Moon tempts us to hide behind the safety of an emotionally protective wall. Thankfully, we might not feel as if we’re being constrained as indulgent Venus, the planet of desire, forms an otherworldly alignment with surreal Neptune. Weaving intricate fantasies helps us escape until we’re ready to re-engage reality when the Moon enters extroverted Leo at 11:01 pm EDT.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You have stepped into a parallel universe and memories of your dreams could be quite intense at this time. However, there’s no need to think that your fantasies will come true just because your recollections are so vivid. It’s always wise to give thought to anything that flows from your imagination. Working extra hard to actualize your potential is still your smartest move no matter how captivating your imagination may be now.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your key planet Venus receives an otherworldly kiss from ethereal Neptune today, lifting your desires from the physical world into the spiritual realm. Acknowledging your dreams is the logical next step to making your wishes come true. Metaphysical teachings remind you to focus your attention on what you want, but then you still must let go of your attachments and simply trust in the power of the universe.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You’re ready to share your worries with someone today, but you could inadvertently shift the blame on to the other person, creating a misunderstanding in the process. Unfortunately, you’re not feeling very motivated to work on your own issues now and may end up projecting your fears. Instead of being judgmental, consider taking some time off for contemplation before you get down to the serious business of personal disclosure.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You want to be as objective as possible today when telling a trustworthy friend about a problem at home. Your companion will probably be eager to listen to whatever you need to share, but he or she might not be able to offer you the advice you seek. Instead of expecting more from everyone else now, find what you need from within.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your love life may sparkle and shine today as beautiful Venus lures you into rich fantasies. Her connection to surreal Neptune replaces the reality of your relationships with whatever is in your imagination. Although an idealistic dream could bring a smile to your face, your view of the world is colored by your desires now. Be careful about assuming that things are as you see them. Enjoy the reverie while it lasts; just remember that this is food for inspiration and not the absolute truth.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You could experience a sudden meltdown today and then recover just as quickly. Obviously, your daily life isn’t unfolding as you expected. Your logic can only take you so far now, so set rational language aside for a while. Thankfully, your emotional involvement won’t lead you into dangerous territory. Instead, sharing your feelings soothes your nerves, turning this into a time to connect with others.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You are very sensitive now that the Moon is in empathic Cancer, tempting you to play a role as the artist or poet. Pull out your craft supplies or musical instruments and get busy. But this is more than just a reminder to create or perform; it’s also about contacting your subconscious through your meditations and dreams. Anything that keeps you in touch with your spirit guides will ultimately bring you closer to your desired destination.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You have a lot going on within your head today, yet you’re not so quick to share your fantasies with others. You can be very clever at avoiding a discussion about anything you want to keep to yourself. But don’t worry if some information leaks out because you will be able to handle the consequences in your own special way. Your charm is irresistible now so use it wisely.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It’s tough to find a place of balance that moves you past feelings of jealousy today. Naturally, you want to talk about what’s going on, but once you open your mouth, you could say too much. If someone seems to be pushing your buttons, you might become so reactive that you forget what you initially had to say. Spending some time alone now will give you the chance to gain objectivity on the situation.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You might not feel very comfortable today if you are confronted with facts that can’t be rewoven into a coherent story. You could have so much information at your disposal now that you aren’t sure how to best integrate it. Even if you try, you still won’t be able to make your point. Just do the best you can while also respecting everyone else’s right to do the same.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Don’t spend too much time trying to turn an assumption of yours into a political debate since it’s futile to defend your position with opinions rather than facts. Your smartest strategy now is to have all your research in neat and tidy packages so you can find it quickly when needed. Nevertheless, it may be necessary to change your mind once you consider the alternatives.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may express your heart’s desire today in a manner that isn’t exactly light and breezy. This is not the kind of day when you can forget about the complicated ramifications of passion, jealousy and control. However, there’s no need to worry about how others will respond to your feelings. Just make sure to be honest and kind when talking to those you love.

Your Ancient Symbol Card for Monday, August 13

 

The Priestess

The Priestess is the Gatekeeper of the subconscious, the unknown. She travels in worlds which most of us only glimpse in our dreams. Her realm is that of unseen truths, untapped potentials, and hidden dangers. Purely Yin in nature, The Calling of The Priestess is to go beyond the obvious and visible to tap those powers which are veiled from normal vision. While she is passive by nature, she has the power to uncover unknown potential and is very aware of the infinite potential all humans harbor within them. She is also very patient. She can wait for events to blossom in their own time.

As a daily card, The Priestess suggest the answers you seek can only be found by looking beyond the obvious. This is a span in which you may do better by applying the power of your subconscious to your everyday actions. Your intuition should be very strong. Be patient, allow events to unfold and you will find propitious moments of opportunity.

Daily Motivator for Aug. 4 – Worth it

Worth it

A life of achievement and fulfillment is a lot of trouble and inconvenience.  Go to the trouble, and deal with the inconvenience, because it’s the quality of  your precious life that’s at stake.

Moving in the direction of your dreams can be complicated, challenging, risky  and tedious. Jump right in and do it anyway, because your real, authentic dreams  are worth it.

You must pay a substantial price to live true to your highest vision of life.  Yet that price is a bargain compared to the alternative of a life with meager  fulfillment.

Instead of avoiding the challenges and complaining about them, see those  challenges for what they are. They are pathways to valuable and meaningful  achievement.

It’s a lot of trouble to live with integrity and passion and purpose. And you  are very much worth the trouble.

A life that demands much of you is a life that offers the greatest richness.  For in meeting those demands, you immerse yourself in all that richness.

— Ralph Marston

Quiz of the Day – Are You a Tracker or a Dreamer?

Are You a Tracker or a Dreamer? Quiz

  • Annie B. Bond

Trackers and dreamers experience energy very differently and connect to the  world in very different ways: trackers plan and carry out their plans, where  dreamers jump into reality without regard for plans. See if you are more of a  dreamer or a tracker with this fun quiz:

Examine these pairs of statements and see which of each pair sounds most like  you:

I purposefully consolidate energy. I keep awareness open to radical  transformation.

I develop flexibility and fluency among different worlds. I am often  black-and-white, totally in perspective or totally out of it.

I tend to be lighthearted. I often become morose or obsessed, seemingly  lost within the energies of my world.

I find knowledge through shifting social identities. I find knowledge  through shifting the various dreams of reality.

I find meaning in stability, then hook dreaming into the physical and build  it from there. I take my awareness, fixate on it, then project that onto  others.

I have a difficult time accessing the full robustness of dreaming. I have  a difficult time relating to what I consider the limitations of the physical  world and the requirements of building something over time.

I isolate components of a problem, then apply strategic pressure to open  doors. I sense options, then open doors.

I need training to stretch my energy body. I need training to get down to  earth.

I may get lost in the nuances of my wondrous accomplishments. I may get  lost in the currents of my own dreams.

If you identified more with the first statement of each pair, you are a  Tracker. If you related more to the second, you are a  Dreamer.

Step forward with action

Start now, not tomorrow or early next week or when you have the time. Now is  when your time is, so use it now.

Sure, it’s important to plan and to prepare. What’s essential, though, is to  put your intentions into action.

Even if you’re not fully prepared, there’s something you can do right now.  Even if you’re unable to get it all done, you can get moving right away in a  productive direction.

Action accomplishes more than just the immediate results it creates. Taking  action seals your commitment and puts you in a state of solid, indisputable  effectiveness.

Action lets you see and know, without the slightest doubt, how capable you  can be. Though it’s great to tell yourself you can do it, action goes several  steps beyond that and shows you that you can do it.

Your dreams and goals and best intentions begin to be truly yours only when  you act on them. So stop just thinking about it or wishing for it, and step  forward right now with real, solid action.

— Ralph Marston
