I like astrology. I don’t love it and I don’t make life decisions based on it, but I like it. It is a tool that I have found helpful at times and now is definitely one of those times…it turns out I’m smack in the midst of Saturn Returns, which sure explains a lot!
This has been a year to remember and it ain’t over yet! I started a new job, moved from LA to San Francisco, went to India for the first time and traveled to Guatemala with my new employer, CARE. I lived alone for the first time and learned more about myself in 6 months than I have in the 29 years prior. India opened my heart in ways I could never imagine.
It has been the hardest year of my life, but also the most transformative. I see why they say Saturn Returns is a ‘returning to your true self’. It’s like I was asleep and someone threw a bucket of ice cold water on my face to wake me up! I suddenly realized that I had forgotten my #1 desire – to travel the world and help people.
I am thrilled to say that despite the rude awakening, I am finally living life the way I want. By the close of 2010 I will have added 2 new continents and 3 new countries to my travel checklist (Asia: India, Guatemala and South America: Peru) and run my first 1/2 marathon…what’s to come in 2011? Hopefully a Himalayan trek and my first trip to Africa, including a climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro.
We all have different priorities, but it sure feels good to be true to them ~ for me, I want to experience life, help others and love as deeply as possible. Oh also; be healthy, so I can keep on truckin’ as long as possible! So bring it on Saturn – I got this!
Thanks for following your dreams, staying awake, and opening your heart! Pops
