Today’s Oracle takes us to the Leo monthly for Oct. 26, 2010

Your notion of safety involves being grounded in your emotions. You could be standing in a hurricane and feel safe, if you’re emotionally centered; you could be inside a fully stocked fortress with a paramedic team nearby and feel insecure if your emotions are off-kilter. So this is the time to tend the center. Your emotional life now has a central organizing principle, and that is where to focus. One image is the hearth at the center of a home. Tending the hearth is the central activity of keeping the home warm, safe and lived-in. There seems to be some kind of 24-hour-a-day devotion involved; the more you commit yourself to that, the better you will feel. You’ve done your share of emotional questioning the past month or so, and there seems to be one particular matter that is a source of doubt; you’re likely to forget about that, and it’s likely to take care of itself. What you can focus on, from your centered and grounded state, is making direct progress on what you want. This is likely to come in the form of a highly focused strategy that includes a wide-reaching plan and deducing a series of direct steps to making it real. Keep your optimism vividly in mind. Aim your intentions. Remember the many lessons of past generations, and be thankful you don’t have to go through any of that again.
Note, The Oracle is a random selection from the Eric Francis horoscope archives. Each day we publish one entry from among the 10,000 in our database. It’s a little slice of horoscope history — but chosen by our Oracle program, which always speaks to the present moment. New horoscopes are published each Friday plus twice a month in Planet Waves subscriber edition and Planet Waves Light. And for your 2012 annual reading, you’ll find Revolution. Revelation. Reality Check.
Thank you, Eric! This oracle is almost 2 yrs old to the date, I remember that week so well. I had just started at this current job, and after not having a steady reliable income for 2 years, it was like a godsend. I’d applied for so many jobs and ended up getting the best. I had been so “off-kilter” wondering how I was going to save my home from the bank, support my children through school, pay my debts from the business I was running, and this job gave me that “central organising principle” which changed everything, and set me on the path of recovery……recovery of my family, our home, my health, by taking those “direct steps”. Two years later, I feel in that “centred and grounded state”. I can see the progress I’ve made, but also clearly the next direct steps to take in order to continue to progress in a “real” way.
It’s sent shivers down my spine thinking about about where I was then, to where I am now. Soooooo grateful “I don’t have to have to go through any of that again”. And where to from here? Well, more “direct steps to making it real”.
Thank you again. Om Shanti
Love. It. (Whoot!)
Love the song Huffster! 😉
Oh, my, looking into my life again, eh, or lives, apparently!
“You could be standing in a hurricane and feel safe, if you’re emotionally centered”
Supposedly, I’ve had/have a rather dreary and loveless past/parallel existence in Oklahoma, and, in an effort to get to feel some passion, any passion and vibrant energy in that life, I would go out into the tornadoes, letting the wind flail me about. I was not hurt by it, nor was I afraid. Even my name then meant work, effort, strain – ugh.
In this life, when a teen, I’d go out and stand in rainstorms – a watered down version, no doubt, but then, in this life, I have passion and love, and don’t need to bash myself about in the wind, to feel alive.
“Tending the hearth is the central activity of keeping the home warm, safe and lived-in. There seems to be some kind of 24-hour-a-day devotion involved; the more you commit yourself to that, the better you will feel.”
Indeed!, I am tending my hearth all day and night, every day. Watching the vitals al day, keeping notes about supplement and hormone doses, and a plan in mind of how to get the adrenals and thyroid healed, not just managed or sublimated with lifetime external hormones, but healed.
Some say, unlike the adrenals, the thyroid can’t be healed. I don’t believe in can’t. To believe in can’t, one must be sure one knows everything there is to know, and since when did medicine know everything?
Thank you for this wonderful oracle, dearest Eric. Brings to mind an old Joan Armatrading favourite:
