Lean into facts

Late July seems like a long time ago now and in some ways it is. Much has changed on many fronts collectively, personally and of course, astrologically.

One cycle has come back to remind us of something we may have got lost in for a while — facts! Remember those? Those things that are all around us, yet seem so strangely rare. Those things that sometimes do hurt, but more often than not we are better for knowing.

Then there are also logistics, general communication and the ideas that you may have had that somehow got waylaid. These very things may be back on the table this week and if they are, you have cosmic permission to go all in on them.

In a world full of misconception, illusions, half truths and downright lies, do your best to lean into facts even if they don’t feel so great at first. With clear facts and straight talk you know where you stand and can make better choices.

If you value X, Y or Z, then let your behavior reflect that. This is what principles and ethics look like. Talk is not enough and there’s a lot of talking going on now. Don’t allow yourself to be hoodwinked.

“How much longer until we get to where you are taking me?” I hear the voice reach out from behind me. We’d been skinning (or climbing uphill with our skis on) for about an hour when my ski sister finally decided to ask where we were going. We had started with some work road and…
