Today’s Oracle takes us to the Libra monthly of Feb. 1, 2006
It’s true that even at the best of times, you’re often hemmed in by the influences of others. Lately, your destiny seems to be under the control of recent developments or discoveries over which you have little influence. But history sets no limits, and you are the one who both interprets and controls the effects of the past on you today. You are the one who gets to decide what it all means, and you are the one who can decide to have new experiences — nobody else can, nor will they ever. It would appear that you’re making amends with some source of pain that influenced your past or shaped you as a child. As you view these things with compassion and see the viewpoints of all the people involved, you’ll slowly free yourself from the emotional conditioning that seemed so overwhelming. And this is a much greater gift than you can imagine.
