Today’s Oracle takes us to the Taurus weekly of Feb. 1, 2008
Keep your perspective wide. Keep your plans loose. Climb (take the stairs) onto a high building and get a perspective of your environment. Focus your inner work on taking down the barriers that divide you from yourself — there is a lot you don’t know, and a lot of energy trapped inside this vicious thing called “belief.” Most of these involve ideas you have about the world, and what you want to do in it. You have an odd relationship to the past. Some days you may think, if it hasn’t been done before, it can’t be done now. Other days you think, if it’s been done before, why bother? And yes, in that case you may question if you’re capable of anything original. I assure you, what you do already is original. If you don’t see it that way, you’re not looking from the right perspective. Try again, then close your eyes and look in the other direction.

When I first discovered the oracle I disregarded it, reminded me of the “daily dips” in the Novel Running With Scissors…but the other day (when I wasn’t attending to the paperwork I’m behind on because every time I would start something would take me away from it) I decided to give it a try concerning some personal insight I was seeking; strangely, not only was the “message” helpful, but the date was meaningful concerning the person I was asking about!
Agree wholeheartedly apainter26, have stopped using it on the site because this is working just fine!!
so often the oracle amazes me by being uncannily apropos for that day; today it feels apropos for today and yesterday and on and on! i almost want to have it tatooed on my arm for repeated reference.
