You may feel the weight of the world on your shoulders today. Or you might find it impossible to take your mind off a recent setback or loss. Nevertheless, all is not lost. In fact, your luck is likely to change sooner than you think. Let go of your unhealthy attachments to the past. Closing doors to a finished chapter of your life allows you to focus on the future. An exciting opportunity is waiting for you to open the window and let it in.
You're protective of anything that might increase your vulnerability, wary of sharing your emotions with others now. But keeping your feelings private is a necessary part of a larger healing process. Although realistic concerns may be the primary motivating factor in your current hesitation to open your heart, you're not apt to close down completely. It's reassuring to know there are people who have your back. If you're processing self-doubt, a supportive network of friends can boost your confidence and lift you to greater heights.
You experience resistance today from someone who usually rushes to your aid. Although your first impulse is to take it personally, there is an undiscovered treasure within reach if you're capable of stepping back and seeing the current situation from a wider perspective. The harbinger of apparently bad news is actually on your side if you're not defensive in your response. Facing a problem now is a blessing in disguise and you'll make great progress if you can move beyond your insecurity. Courage creates change.
You could be overreacting to the current situation, even if someone is telling you no. Experiencing rejection is never fun, whether it is personal or professional. But instead of retreating behind a wall of emotional protection, begin a dialogue about your worries. You don't need to start the conversation with a discussion of your fear of abandonment. Instead, stick to the issues and explore what can be done to bridge the gulf without severing all ties. There is a valuable gem at the edge of your awareness waiting to be found.
Your day feels like a rollercoaster as your plans for a pet project fall apart, only to be recreated better than they were. Unfortunately, prematurely throwing in the towel if you encounter a setback prevents you from reaching your goal. However, reevaluating your methods while remaining determined about your ultimate destination can turn temporary failure into lasting success. A Japanese proverb teaches, "Fall down seven times, stand up eight."
You wonder how long you can continue fighting an uphill battle, uncertain about reaching the summit if you already feel exhausted. However, you're likely much closer to the top than you realize. Holding your current course seems counterintuitive if you're prematurely tired, but the rewards are worth the extra effort now. Don't react impulsively; wait until the clouds clear and you can make an informed decision based upon rational perceptions. A more objective view eliminates previous doubts.
Pretending everything is fine when it's not seems like the appropriate thing to do today, but it may be best to express your true feelings right from the start. Of course, revealing your heart makes more sense when you're with someone you trust. Nevertheless, you might need to take a risk before you see any benefits from your disclosure. A leap of faith will likely lead to the soft landing you desire. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
It could be one of those days when you get up on the wrong side of the bed. But don't judge the big picture on your morning mood, for your negativity will likely dissipate as positive feelings blow in on a pleasant breeze. Adopting an optimistic outlook enables you to avoid the trap of remaining stuck in the past and ruminating on regret. Fortunately, it's your choice; many variables lie outside the realm of your control, but you decide your future by how you respond to external events.
You want to show your concern for others who are encountering difficult times, but it's nearly impossible to ignore the wonderful opportunities in front of you. Although the good news in your life may not be apparent to everyone else, you can see positive potential everywhere you look. Naturally, your pursuit of success is healthy, but don't use that as an excuse to avoid an unpleasant truth that needs your immediate attention. Carl Jung wrote, "One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."
You're willing to bypass the possibility of a pleasant experience today if you believe it could distract you from your goal. Your established priorities are your main concern and you won't jeopardize the gains you already made. Nevertheless, you still must communicate your decision to someone who may be negatively affected by your matter-of-fact attitude. Don't deviate from your path; emotional satisfaction is right around the corner if you can stay on track. Accomplishment soothes the soul.
Your moodiness may seem out of place today, but you can't help it when your emotions bubble to the surface. Your friends might not understand why you can't just let your disappointment go, but you would feel like a fraud if you did. Thankfully, being honest through your ups and downs is only temporarily uncomfortable. In the long run, your authentic sincerity helps to clear the air of unspoken tensions and enables everyone involved to shift gears into a more positive frame of mind. Your integrity is your greatest strength.
Insecurities about your ability to express your feelings today could attract a black storm cloud of despair. Fortunately, your self-doubt won't last long because there are too many opportunities coming at you from different directions. However, you might miss them if you're distracted by the past events that fell short of your hopeful expectations. There's no reason to fixate on the rearview mirror when there is an exciting adventure waiting for you on the road ahead. Activist Corrie ten Boom said, "Faith is the radar that sees through the fog."
