Here was October, here
Was ruddy October, the old harvester,
Wrapped like a beggared sachem in a coat
Of tattered tanager and partridge feathers.

Inner Journey: ACCEPT CHANGE
“We cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning; for what in the morning was true will in evening become a lie.”
— C.G. Jung
Life continually evolves. We’re always moving into new experiences, new possibilities. This constant change unsettles the personality, which finds security in stability. But with life always in flux, that security is an illusion. We experience pain by tryingto hold on to things that are not solid.
Life becomes joyful when we can open to the constant flow and ride freely with it. This requires us to let go of the need to control. We need to learn to trust.
“Can it then be that what we call the ‘self’ is fluid and elastic? It evolves, strikes a different balance with every new breath.”
— Wayne Muller
“We’re never the same; notice how you’re called to write something entirely different about a topic you responded to weeks or months ago.”
— Patrice Vecchione

A Note from the Universe
It may seem a bit backwards for some, but the first step one might take towards rearranging the present circumstances of their life is to stop dwelling upon the present circumstances of their life.
But for you it’s probably a no-brainer.

“The knock at the door tells the character of the visitor!”
-T.K.V. Desikachar, (Patanjali’s Yogasutras: An introduction) 1987
Once again, a version of “actions speak louder than words.” Interesting! How do we approach people? What is the first impression we give? I’ve seen a lot of courtesy go flying out the window with some e-mails! People are in a rush, they impulsively hit “send” and the ripples are felt throughout cyberland. Think about that “knock at the door” and how we can let others know that it is okay to let us in.

Daily Tarot: The high Priestess
There may be moment or two when you feel responsible for everything in the world and like it’s your duty to take care of everyone. Relax, let this wash over you, and let it go. It’s not a burden so much as a demonstration of how connected you are to the people and things in your own life, and how much you care. That’s a good thing.
