For the girl with a decision to make: Now is not the time

After the shift in our cosmos last week, it feels like everything has changed.

For the girl with a decision to make: Now is not the time

I've always been super curious about the shifts and changes that are happening in our universe and I've wondered about how the changes may directly affect us. But, more recently, in the last year since the solar eclipse in August 2017 I've felt everything immediately change.

Though mostly in positive ways, speaking for myself.

But then, last Friday happened, and I've felt my world go haywire. Last week, a shift in the cosmos occurred, involving a lunar eclipse/ blood moon and the start of a mercury retrograde. And, if you haven't felt everything shift... well, lucky you.

All of the changes have had my mind spiraling and being pulled in too many directions. My thoughts are running ramped (more than usual). I feel that things are coming to an end, some are beginning, relationships are shifting and I just can't keep up. With all that's happening, I feel confused with the urge for decisions to be made. Deciding on which way to go, what to do and how to do it.

Before Friday, I had already felt like I needed to start making some decisions, but being an unbearably indecisive person, I've put it all off. Now with everything feeling completely out of control and completely out of my grasp... I feel even more inclined to do something even with the complete and utter confusion.

I was hoping I'd come to a conclusion or even be able to help anyone else feeling these changes to make a decision. But, I've read that this is actually the worst time to make decisions. That right now with the energies being out of whack and everything all over the place, not doing anything, ironically may be the way to go.

So, if you've been feeling like your world is upside down and you feel completely insane. It's totally not your fault and it may be a good time to just hang back for a while until things clear up. Take time to let the craziness run its course and wait for the clean slate that should be washing your way to make the hard and easy decisions.

Until then... definitely hide.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
