“Some birds are not meant to be caged, that’s all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure.”

Stephen King, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption: A Story from Different Seasons

—

We may encounter rough roads today with a tendency toward nervous tension, irritability, and impulsiveness. All this will create a chaotic feel to the start of the day. Rather than trying to “fix” anything — especially if it isn’t broken — allow this chaotic energy to play out. Energy shifts continually, and there’s always a lessening of intensity the longer the energy remains active. It’s the natural entropy of universal energy. Despite this somewhat messy beginning, there are aspects that are helpful, too.  For today, though, let it be.

Tomorrow is another story.

THE WEEK AHEAD: There are numerous combinations of planet energy this week that will bring a mixed bag of events. With Jupiter’s square to Neptune, we feel exceptionally inspired with a far-seeing vision that guides us on our path. We’ll look to pragmatic, process-oriented Virgo for ways to put our vision into action. There are two sides to Virgo energy, though, and we may see the overly critical and picky energies creating insecurities and doubts in our minds.

This Friday’s Pisces Full Harvest Moon (9:32 PM PDT 21° Pisces/Virgo) brings the crux of the Pisces-Virgo opposition to a peak. Basically, in order to bring our Piscean vision to reality, we need to follow the orderly process that is outlined by the pragmatism produced by Virgo’s analysis. There are likely to be some ‘bumpy’ spots in this week’s road. Nervousness and insecurity are likely to surface when our faith becomes thin. Just because we are being asked to follow an orderly process doesn’t mean that we must only follow conventional paths. This week offers profound opportunities to break new ground and bring about meaningful change but, of course, this is exactly when we begin to feel the most insecure.
