Today’s Oracle takes us to the Gemini weekly for Oct. 11, 2007
For a long time you seem to have been reaching emotionally for a certain kind of relationship. Now that you’ve come closer to it and have become acquainted with your feelings relating to this person, you are likely to be reconsidering everything. Check whether your hesitation involves the concept of the relationship or the emotional position of the individual you are considering encountering more closely. In any event, seeing things from both sides of the street is healthy, if you ask me. At a certain point we do need to dive into a situation to have any idea of what it really contains. Yet an important aspect of “readiness” is knowing ourselves well enough to have a sense of where we really stand — with ourselves, and then with the world around us.

There’s powerful stuff coming up right now, dear Daniel, to be worked through and ultimately, healed. As Amanda said, “you want to move forward but those demons keep popping up”. Be gentle on yourself, and trust that it’s all good, even when it doesn’t feel that way.
Nilou, thank you so much for your amazing input, that really resonated. I find that as soon as I connect with a deeper issue, my focus shifts and I become more relaxed. Lizzy, I so appreciate your support. Thank you both dearly.
I really feel like spilling my guts out here because there’s more here about fear and pressure that is causing me discomfort. It’s like, every time I’ve gained some ground, I feel later or during, like I’m on the retreat in a cold sweat hiding in my bathroom. Tonight we were able to talk it through and I felt better as the night went on, but I feel rattled and concerned. I want this to be empowering this time; I want ease and gentleness.
Daniel,
I asked a question for you and this is what came up; probably because I need reminding of the same…
– your imagination is more important than your knowledge (Einstein, i believe: totally cool)
– stay on your path and follow your inner guidance, it’s got you this far and this is good
– use your art, use your gifts – not only will you have the satisfaction of creation, it will help you keep relaxed
re your question, i see the desire to do things well – ‘get it right’ – as entirely positive; why not fill up your space with you for a while and see what happens? And there’s fixation, there’s commitment, and there’s devotion – i shall ponder the difference through the next few days in the hope that it will prepare mars energy for sign transition; must remember to check where venus is these days too. All best, nilou
The thing is i’ve spent a good few hours today researching on the theme “Embracing Chaos” and I found this in my notes from July 2012.
You have no reason to doubt yourself – why do you still doubt yourself? Show yourself the love and compassion and understanding you show everyone but yourself. You are lovely, you are beautiful, shine!

I also found some notes on ‘the honest expression of desire’ with the comment ‘my desire nature is like a volcano, with a time sequencer that i don’t know about’. How that manifests is that i can be quite convinced i desire one thing, and then suddenly find underneath that the desire for some completely different experience. Oh wow! I’m human and i’m alive! So, since then all the other projects have been secondary while i’ve concentrated on one: project integrity. Much easier to live with me, myself and i, than a multitude of sub-personalities playing self-protect and hijack…without asking!
(P.S. Obviously Mars hasn’t left yet…..)
“But my point is that I’ve learned so much about not worrying about a lot of things” yes, I have to come back to that one again and again. .Sounds great, Daniel!
Hey, Daniel, i know i mentioned i have a Scorpio sun, and while Pisces on the 8th and Gemini on the 11th loves lots of company, this water trine is like, well ‘Life of Pi’ is pretty close, perhaps my reticence to respond is because Mars is leaving Leo and about to visit my Virgo moon-land? and it would also seem a bit presumptuous. You could write me a note and i would be happy to tell you what i think on this particular subject. What say you?
“… appreciate that *than* to try…”
Well, this year has brought me 2 short “relationships” – a capricorn and a pisces – two lovely people. Both endings hit me really hard as I tried to understand my shortcomings and how I hold (or don’t hold) space – or more honestly, how I try to control that space. Okay, I’m being really hard on myself. But my point is that I’ve learned so much about not worrying about a lot of things. Every encounter is something unique and I’ve decided that it’s so much more beautiful to appreciate that then to try and mold things into an experience and image of a person that I am fixated on. Part of my problem is that I want to get it right. Allowing space to be filled is about leaving that perspective behind, and feeling joyful about what others can share on their own volition. Does this sound right?
