Ralfee Finn: For the Week of August 17, 2006

[rumpel]

It’s a fire walk, all week long. And no matter how blistering daily life may become, no one is likely to back down or turn around in the midst of this heat. Five planets in Leo—the Sun, Saturn, Mercury, Venus, and by Tuesday, the Moon—concentrate the intensity, and while Leo is famous for its dazzling passion, Leo is equally infamous for its imperious authority.

Most of us almost always define creativity as an art or a craft, but that’s too narrow a definition to satisfy the Sun. From a solar perspective, life is the ultimate creative act. Every word, feeling, thought and action I have creates my life. And I don’t mean that in a preposterous way. The sentence that followed the New Age adage “you create your own reality,” and the sentence hardly anyone heard, was “and so does every living being on the planet.” That combined creativity produces collective reality. But believing that one human being can have an effect on the collective requires believing in yourself, which is also what Leo is about—having the confidence and the courage to be.

In a world saturated with critical messages about the way each of us should look, smell, eat, think, worship, or love, believing in the possibility of personal power seems a bit mad. But that’s nothing compared to the insanity of believing in the possibility of thee and me united in our efforts for the greatest good.

This week’s planetary fire walk is journey of selfhood. And while we take that walk everyday, consciously or unconsciously, this week we have a chance to make it conscious and purposeful. So do your best to move skillfully through the heat. Be you—all of you—and be passionate about your life. Have vital opinions, but also respect the opinions of others. As always, be kind to your fellow firewalkers. Remember, every heart is powered by the Sun and the Sun’s light shines equally on all sentient beings.

3. This week's astro backdrop has a strange literal significance for me.

I just took a new job that involves working around a lot of heat. My daily work environment and its responsibilities give new meaning to the term "playing with fire." How appropriate.

4. Wow, this daily is RIGHT ON.

" "Leo: You may be seeking more meaning from your relationships now. You are being drawn into your own emotional world, but it may actually be in response to someone close to you who is giving you mixed signals. Perhaps the signals are not as jumbled as you think. Perhaps it is the receiver that needs tuning and not the transmitter. Look beneath the confusion for the real meaning. "

5. This part here ...

The sentence that followed the New Age adage “you create your own reality,” and the sentence hardly anyone heard, was “and so does every living being on the planet.” That combined creativity produces collective reality. But believing that one human being can have an effect on the collective requires believing in yourself, ... is what I've been dealing with for months now.

I'm so glad you posted this so I could see!
