What would you do if you were not afraid?
Unknown

The stars are… I’m not sure. Like the word transition they are so obscure right now that pinpointing a real thing is not possible for my amateur self. I’ve used this quote before. I love this quote because fear is all that holds us back from our greatest dreams. It doesn’t matter that you may not be wealthy or a genius, you believe you are not those things therefore you are not. I realize to about 99% of the people reading this the idea that if you think it – it shall manifest is about as unlikely as (insert your greatest fear here).

Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain. Always always do what you are afraid to do. Always.

Fear is the strait jacket of the soul; it is not a real thing. It’s part of your dream of life. That is if you are one of those who believe that we are all asleep while we are living this dream. Any excuse made is really just you giving your fear a face. Yes some of the fears are very relevant, but that is still all they are is fear. When you’re in a safe place it’s the best time to slay your fears. Finally.

Since the stars are jumbled right now and all signs point to STOP. I’m paying attention. But for someone like me sitting still is a fate worse than death. Maybe sitting still is my fear, honestly I haven’t thought of that until now. Ouch. At any rate, the planets are taxing us this week in the relationship department. Last week was the start of what is called “the marriage breaker” trine. It doesn’t mean just marriages are affected, it’s any close relationship that can feel the weight. With that going on some things that have bothering all of us have come to head, some in very big ways. I suppose what I’m trying to get at here, is now that you’ve said your peace. Let things be for a day or so and take a look at your own fears that made that “thing” or “marriage breaker” come to a head. Because ultimately what we love or hate in another is really just your own fear reflecting back at you.

I am going to try for once to be quiet, sit tight and keep my temper in check. Which is something I’ve been trying to do since last week with not much avail. I will however sit with my fear and take a good strong look at it. I wish all of you the bravery to do the very same thing.

Until next time Arete.

Dark Horse The life and times of a meditative horse trainer. I'm a second generation born and raised Alaskan. I've very proud of that, my roots are here. While I want to see as much of the world as I can, I want to raise my children here. I'm a dedicated student of the horse, of life and I love to learn. I try to leave no stone unturned in my life. Nothing is good if taken at just face value there is always more, to people, an animal, a thought, a dream. I'm an intensity junky, I live my life with passion as if every action were my very last, and I love the colors that this passion has brought to me. It's my hope to share this small window of myself with my readers. If you surfed in please make yourself at home and stay a while, if your one of my loved one's who are here, I love you for all you have educated me in to make my life this amazing.
