Today’s Oracle takes us to the Sagittarius monthly for May 20, 2008
One of the most difficult lessons to learn is not to take things personally. This difficulty, and it can be considerable, is matched by a comparable reward. Let’s start with the first part, the challenge of remembering that what people go through is what they go through and what we experience is something else. The connection is entirely overstated; people bring the whole unfinished business of the past into even the most casual encounters with others. While it’s true that relationships imply a shared experience, typically unless the most stringent precautions are taken (and this is exceedingly boring), the boundary between one person and the other can become so blurred that many practical points of discernment disappear. This experience is complicated by guilt and obligation, two subjects that are high on your agenda for what to rebel against in life. However, when people care about one another, it’s not so simple. One of the best ways to start the process is to practice the yoga of awareness that people are responsible both for their perceptions, and for how they interpret them. This includes being responsible for how they perceive you. By all means, act ethically, but drive your own car.
