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.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
