Your inner child is asking you to take care of them. This is an opportunity to heal old, deep wounds. Senseless, cyclical pain can wither us, but when we find meaning in our suffering, we can be transmuted by it. Release those parts of you that are tense or rigid -- you are making room for new influences, new guidance, new truth. By releasing those parts of you that are tense or rigid, you are making room for new influences, new guidance, new truth.

Allow yourself space to welcome & celebrate the good, even when it comes in equal measure with difficult emotions. Be discerning in your responses. What comes from greed, what comes from jealousy? What comes from old wounds, that may actually be healed by facing them? And what truly comes from your intuition, your inner self, indicating a need for change? You can’t know what the next chapter holds until you’re in it. Accept this chance for a new beginning.
It is difficult to address conflict head on. Remember not everything can be resolved quickly or easily. Be easy on yourself and take your time. Focus on the short term, the next step, rather than the destination. Trust that the clarity you seek will come when you’re ready.
Listen to your own needs, and trust yourself. Take your time. You don’t have to run on anyone else’s schedule. When you do find the clarity you need, act on it. Don’t hesitate to speak the truth.
Be gentle with yourself, and stay in the present. Give yourself space to recognize old patterns when they arise, so they no longer rule you. Avoid fortune telling, but relinquish what is ready to fall away so you can fully embody what comes next. This is your moment to take a leap of faith -- trust yourself.
You have so much to take care of -- be intentional about including yourself on the list. Just pushing through isn’t the answer. Take rest when you need it. Ask for help when you need it. Center your focus, and slow down. You’ll get there.
It’s a fool’s errand, trying to stand still in the face of change. Nothing can stay the same forever, but that doesn’t mean nothing can last.
You may find that your emotions seem to follow a cycle. Allow them to flow through you, communicating and informing, without hijacking your center. Remember: you get to decide what it means to come full circle. Are you right back where you started? Are you drilling down into your reactivity, undermining your own balance? Or are you climbing a spiral staircase that you build for yourself with every step you take, and that offers you, from each new height, a fuller, more compassionate perspective on all the people you’ve been along the way?
