Taurus Horoscope for week of February 23, 2006Verticle Oracle card Taurus (April 20-May 20)
The greatest gift you can give right now might be the gift that you yourself were never given. The most valuable service you have to offer your fellow humans may be the service you have always wished were performed for you. An experience that wounded you could and should move you to help people who've been similarly wounded. You now have the power to heal yourself by healing others.
i told summer a long, drawn out story masquerading as a synopsis. and it was good to get it out. good to have some dramatical climaxical validation of the story i enjoyed telling myself about those funnytimes and the state of affairs that is now.
so this unfolding, this steadily uncoiling of strings and ropes and such allows me to see that all i've got here on my hands is a big(ger), (more) complicated mess than before. well, not really. i've just come to understand that there is no power in the storytelling. it's in letting go of the story and just being with what is. no attachment. no investment in anything being different. instead i get to swallow the whole pie, digest it for good and move away from the scene.
true power comes when i'm no longer invested in the ideas of power/lessness, in/exclusion, right/wrong. the power is only in accepting the big picture and then moving on. because at the end of the day, the real question is--so (the f*ck) what? what does that have to do with any choices that you are making in this here moment? (nothing.) what does this have to do with who you really are? (nothing.)
letting go is the only option for liberation. it is the only road of freedom. and so, in this here moment, in this wrinkle in time, i am committed to fully loving all parties involved for exactly who they are. i am committed to keeping the past of the story in the past and being present to my love for all that is.
this is such a beautiful, magnificent gift.
blessings.

sending you atl-love,
i listened to one of your music favs--christa bell--and oh my-- first i listened to "archetypes" and it brought me to tears then heard "too much" and felt all sexy and celebratory-her voice really is her gift--i'm glad you had her in your favs l'.
reading your current post reinforces something i read earlier this week:
"I will practice Acceptance. Today I wll accept people, situations, circumstances, and events as they occur. I will know that [i] this momentis as it should be [/i], because the whole universe is as it should be. I will not struggle against the whole universe by struggling against this moment. My acceptance is total and complete. I accept things as they are in this moment, not as I wish they were."
--Chopra's "Seven Spirtual laws of Success"
i know, i know--you've read it but had to write, merely for me.
peace l'
