action is the enemy of thought
posted in horrors by catherine“Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred. How did it find us? Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us…? That we now send our children into the world like we send young men into war, hoping for their safe return – but knowing that some will be lost along the way. When did we lose our way? Consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness. Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?”

our expansive phase could come to a premature end today as you grow uncomfortable with the lack of boundaries. Your need to define what’s going on, though, could create additional problems as you grapple with primal feelings that disturb your equilibrium. Talking about them won’t make them go away, but can diffuse some of your angst.

Slipping into a dark place isn’t as bad as it sounds; in fact, the shadows can be very comfortable and reassuring to you. But don’t let your eagerness for solitude needlessly separate you from someone’s unconditional support. Although you may be feeling more vulnerable than usual, push back against your fear of rejection and open your heart to those who love you.

Your key planet Venus is receiving conflicting instructions even now when she’s in practical Taurus, encouraging you to seek and enjoy simple pleasures. But a tense aspect from dark Pluto can complicate your life by luring you beneath the surface and into the mysterious realms of your subconscious mind. Face your fears and bring your buried feelings up to the surface where they won’t have as much negative influence over your life.
sagittarius
You may want to take care of others at work today, but you only want to do it on your terms. You don’t have as much inclination now to negotiate, for your intense feelings don’t make you feel very flexible. Nevertheless, it’s still in your best interest to listen to what someone else desires before you deliver unwanted goods.

You Fish are champions of swimming with the tide, yet today’s currents may pull you away from your real work. Don’t worry, though, if your goals seem to recede into the distance, for this is just a temporary situation. However, if you struggle against the prevailing tide, you could exhaust yourself without making any real progress. Relax and float a while to save your strength for when you need it.
I’ve made a habit of reading these after the day’s over, afraid they will or won’t happen, much like a birthday wish before blowing out the candles. “Shh, it’s a secret, can’t tell you until it comes true.”
They rarely ever do.
