caribou

caribou
are on the mind
tonight as i meditate on my
lack of meditation

     free the mind is the promise

just got to make time to prioritize
freedom. let the fog drift by.
drift through

     fog through the meadow where the
caribou graze listlessly, freely

caribou are on the mind

lost

today at 3:36 pm pacific time Jupiter moved into Pisces. i’m told this is a good thing.

themes:

  • psychic and intuitive development
  • spiritually motivated traveling
  • increase in meditation or prayer
  • collective compassion & empathy
  • dreamwork or astral projection groups

right around 3:36 pm pacific time i started to feel spent. stretched. empty. am i just tired? was it a long morning? am i being annoyingly contrarian?

hype: it bothers me. i get it when it’s for something that’s actually proven quality or somehow provides an authentic/genuine improvement to one’s life. but that’s probably why i’m not an early adopter. i do feel, though, that i’m perhaps early majority because new definitely excites me and i’ve purchased some wackadoo shit in my time.

maybe i have FOMO on all the folks high-fiving about all this Jupiter business. living their best in-Pisces lives. i’m just not feeling super plugged in at the moment. i’m really the only one that can address that but it’s easier to just think someone else will hand “psychic and intuitive development” over to me on a silver platter. that’s really what i want. if we’re honest.

but, brass tacks: if i want to nurture any such abilities, or increase my collective compassion & empathy, i have to look within. which also means i have to be alright with what’s going on in this moment. i have to be able to be grounded, self-aware, centered, at peace in order to be able to feel the outside vibes more intensley.

i have to be alright with the now. i have to be alright with who i am now. i have to be alright with where i am now. i have to understand that now is the destination of the past, and the starting point of the future. and out of those things, now is the only one i can control (even that is arguable… but let’s not, ok?).

first post: done. hopefully it’s alright.
