Giddyup bitches. It’s Monday and that means it’s time to get ready to ride. I mean, let’s be real. Are you even living if you’re just sneaking into Monday? Storm that bitch like you’re storming the castle. Let Monday know who’s the fucking boss around here. Guess what? It ain’t Tony Danza.
As it goes, I’m feeling all sorts of energetic which is par for the course for a Monday. I got big plans! Which is also par for the course on a Monday. This is the week I’m going to try to get back onto my daily schedule. I feel like I’m off to a pretty good start considering that I’m actually getting to this blog post at the time that I’ve allotted for doing so. Yay me!
This past weekend was the first in a while that I had no classes to either teach or attend. It was weird, lol. But in that free time, we went for a little jaunt out to Marie Selby Gardens. Quite lovely although there were a few mosquitoes or no seeums that had quite the feast on my yummyness.
I do believe that I’m starting to find some focus once again. Perhaps it’s due to the gummies I’ve been taking, perhaps not, but finding the focus is all that matters, regardless of where it’s coming from. It’s right on time also as I really need to be getting right back into learning all of this WordPress goodness. Know why? Because I can. It isn’t difficult. It’s truly just applying myself and not being lazy. And not being scared. For once, stepping into my power and owning what I’m good at and monetizing it. I really have to stop standing by and watching other people do the things (and get paid for them) that I know that I can do. Come on, Stuart! You’re good enough, you’re smart enough, and gosh darn it, PEOPLE LIKE YOU!
We had stepped away from the natal chart stuff for a bit because I had some other things to chat about, but let’s get back to that now, shall we? Today’s planetary overview includes Jupiter (my ruling planet), Saturn, and Uranus (insert your own joke here). So, Jupiter is about how I expand (not my waistline, lol) and grow. A recurring theme is that I value freedom pretty much the most. So some good:
- Open to new methods
- Intelligent
- Tolerant
- Sincere
- Generous (seriously, you can have money, but don’t waste my time)
- Work hard, play hard
But on the down side:
- I get discouraged trying to live up to my own visions and high ideals
- Cynical
- Self-contraditctory
SHOTS FIRED!!! If you’ve read this blog for more than this post, then you know that this is true. I live this every single day. Like, right now, I’m thinking about the things that I “should” be doing. Shoulding all over myself. Is it all bad? No, probably not. I push myself and then I push back against myself. It always varies which part of me wins out. But I suppose that too is a part of my personality. From whirling dervish to slug in an instant!
Ok, next up is Saturn, our hula hooping planet. Saturn is all about structure and my inhibitions. How I challenge authority. In my head, I’m way tougher than in real life I’m pretty sure. This one is heavy on the emotional baggage which I’m really not here for, but on on anyway. Quite possibly the most “off” of the planets as it regards to me (I think):
- Determined
- Practical
- Empathetically authoritative
But when the day is shit:
- Feeling fundamentally unloved and unsupported (monkey brain says this)
- Fears being without money (nope, not this one)
- Not always open to others’ ideas
- Egotistic
- Will freeze you out physically and emotionally
Yeah, well, nobody’s perfect. Notice me not holding on to this planet. Not trying to hear what it says. LOL. Moving right along to Uranus and more about my swelling ego. Let’s talk about my individualism and creativity. Funny place for it to be shooting out of, right? Uranus? I crack myself up. What you got for me, planet?
- Independent
- Creative
- Spirited
- Freedon-loving
Ohhh, this is a tough one. There are simply more things that I need to work on, or there are more things that I embrace as negative, lol.
- Inconstant work efforts (see also, this blog)
- Undisciplined (see also, any flow art I’m not practicing)
- Rebellious
- Indecisive
Yeah, look. I can recognize my issues when they are pointed out to me. Of course that doesn’t necessarily mean that I’m going to work on all of them at the same time. Or any of them at any time to be totally honest. Surely I’m a work in progress, but I progress at my speed – no one else’s. Fuck all that noise, for real for real. Just do you, boo!
Ok, that’s what I have for today. Maybe tomorrow I’ll come back and tell you how I did so many things today and felt so accomplished. Maybe not. But I do gotta get a few things done, so see ya!
