Today’s Oracle takes us to the Capricorn weekly for May 27, 2011
You may be feeling like your professional life is all work and very few rewards, and that is partly the result of the demanding and complex times we are living in. But you’re also at the end of a fairly long spell where you’ve had to handle many serious responsibilities, and this has taken an emotional toll on you. You also haven’t fully backed yourself away from the sensation that you live on the edge of a cliff, even though you’re a lot further from that edge than you were, say, three years ago. It’s true that anything can go wrong at any moment, but as Lou Reed said, you can’t count on the worst always happening. And frankly if you don’t act like you’re always expecting the worst, you will live with a sense of potential that starts to feel stronger than your sense of paranoia. Potential means living with a sense of what is possible in the best sense of the idea; that is closely connected to your creativity, which thrives on love and appreciation rather than on fear.
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.
THIS is exactly what I’ve been experiencing…thank you Oracle for all your timely gifts, this one especially since today is Sun conj. natal Sun day for me!! 🙂 And thank you Planet Waves community for being an incredible reservoir for Truth and Beauty, in soooo many ways!!
speaking of paranoia, a new gem from The Onion:

Exactly, Huffy: timely. Just how I would describe it as well! And I love this: “Potential means living with a sense of what is possible in the best sense of the idea; that is closely connected to your creativity, which thrives on love and appreciation rather than on fear.” YES!
Finding that this Cohen line always resonates with me, “There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.” It always applies and fits to any situation. I’ve seen him live so many times, each one more amazing than the last. He creates his own light: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e39UmEnqY8
This is wonderful! So spot on, so timely. Thank you. In fact the famous Mark Twain quote, “My life has been filled with terrible misfortunes – most of which never happened”, is very much the case for me.
