TAURUS AND TAURUS RISING

You have a remarkably stable situation right now, not counting the Apocalypse . With Venus and Jupiter strong in your sign, and touching Pluto and Mars, even the New York Stock Exchange (another Taurus) is hanging in there. So why are you still feeling so shaky and uncertain inside? About five more years of this twelfth house Uranus transit will show you that there are hugely powerful forces that either you beckon you away from the path you thought you were on or blow you clean off.

GEMINI AND GEMINI RISING

You do seem to have a Guardian Angel or even several, all whispering in your ear, trying their best to keep you from committing self-destructive acts. Only thing is, what is self-destructive to some could be your way of saving your soul and your sanity. There is no question that the urge to break away and do something completely innovative and independent is growing in you daily. IS that a message from the Universe? Or is it to much caffeine? Should you change the world or should you just forget and go to the movies?

Okay, OKay!!! Been seeing enough reminders of THIS lately!

Today's thought from Hazelden is:

Perfectionism

Part of the ego reduction necessary to our recovery is the acceptance of the fact that we are not and never will be perfect. Perfectionism gets in the way of recovery because it imposes impossible, unrealistic goals which guarantee failure. If we do not think we have to be perfect, then we can accept our mistakes as learning experiences and be willing to try again.

Deepening acquaintance with our Higher Power is good insurance against perfectionism. We come to believe that God accepts and loves us as we are, and this gives us the courage and humility to accept ourselves.

We are not perfect, but we are growing. In spite of our weaknesses, we can serve others according to God's plan for our lives. Accepting our own limitations makes us more tolerant of the faults and weaknesses of those around us. Together, we progress.

I am thankful that I don't need to be perfect.
