Day 61: My purpose today is to forgive the world

Intention of the day: Do not carry the weight of the world on your shoulders. Forgive the evil, remember the balance of yin and yang and let karma deal with the rest.

Morning writing: This lesson reinforces my social media detox. All of the feelings described in the reading today were about the negativity that you take on when you are condemning some evil going on in the world. Even when you are being high and mighty and looking down upon some horrible criminal or story, you're still taking on negative energy. When you are a social justice warrior, fighting internet trolls online, you're still taking on negative energy. If I spend time reading about terrible things going on in the world, it will just add to negativity. It's not up to me to save the rest of the world. The universe has a balance of good and bad, I suppose. It evens itself out. Is this why bad things happen to good people? I can't say. But with my social media detox, I feel much lighter in my heart. I'm not reading about the latest presidential travesty or reading comments by right wing lunatics or russian troll factories. All of that brewing around in facebook land is toxic and I'm staying the fuck away. It feels much better!!

Tarot Reading:

VII Strength (strength, courage, patience, control, compassion)
0 The Fool (beginnings, innocence, spontaneity, free spirit)
XII The Hanged Man (suspension, restriction, letting go, sacrifice)

I just asked for general advice. I guess my spirit guides know that I'm searching for answers as to when I might be ready to date again. They continue to tell me to be patient. Focus on my transformation, focus on working on myself and not dating. Let go of needing a partner for the time being. I'm strong enough to go it alone at the present time and must work on being a free spirit instead of being tied down. It is a weird feeling to be alone like this but it might just be because I'm not used to it.

Day 62: I release the world from my control

Intention of the day: Meditate on releasing my need to be in control. Trust that things will all be taken care of by the Universe. Morning writing: I had a nice long meditation in my morning routine today. It's Friday and my boss is out for a vacay so if I'm a little late it's not a big deal. Besides, things will all be taken care of by the Universe! I have had control issues for a while. Insecurity makes you want to try to control everything that you can, as a defense mechanism. You think that if you control how people act or where they go, then they will act and do whatever you want and you will not get hurt. This is unhealthy and simply not possible. I can't control anything except for myself, my actions, and my reactions. My relationship with my ex was toxic because I wanted to control him. I wanted him to be the perfect version of himself that was inside my head. But that person isn't real and the real guy didn't want to be that perfect self, for whatever...

Day 108: I am the One who is experiencing itself as all of creation

Intention of the day: Always remember that I am made of the same divine light as the rest of the Universe. We are all of one, and one is within us all. Morning writing: I made it! The book is complete. This is the final lesson. It's a bit of a reiteration of some previous lessons but still a good one to end on. Remember that I am made of the same energy as other people. As the trees and animals, and inanimate objects too. This planet is made of atoms just like I am. This Universe is composed of atoms. If you zoom out far enough... this Universe looks like an atom. We are all the same oneness, energy and light. It is always moving and changing as it works to stay in balance. That is the yin and yang of this energy, the magnetism of it. There will always be bad with good, that's part of the balance. Without motion there is no life. So now the book is over. I am not sure if this blog will continue as frequently, we'll just see how that goes. I will try to check in, but I m...

Day 10: I invite myself to fully experience everything I feel

Intention of the day: Let my body be my sanctuary where I can regain my strength and feel grounded. Let my emotions be real but not control my entire self and not affect my entire day. Morning writing: This one is difficult for me. I get emotional very easily. I treat this with my self-medication to help me keep my cool. But as evidenced by the existence of this blog, I'm still not entirely "together." I understand what the book is TRYING to say, but I think I already feel all my emotions pretty well. So I delved deeper into the secondary message of today's ritual: my body is my rock. My body is a constant, silent warrior where my crazy head sits on top. If I need to get out of a bad head space or calm my incessant inner monologue, I can use my new meditation techniques to regain my strength and composure. The bigger issue is acknowledging when my thoughts are becoming toxic, and being cognizant of the tools I have to change my tune.
