What a beautiful morning. This whole week, really, has been a beautiful one. It’s a bit chilly for August, but it's been a treat to see that clear blue sky every morning.
I'm still in a slump, though—a thick fog I’m blaming on Mercury being in retrograde. Yes, it’s still going on. This week, my morning walks have been consuming me. For the past few days, I've had to give myself a pep talk. I had to get firm with myself, talking to myself as if I were a client.
Almost five years ago, I had a vision that made no sense to me at all, yet the feeling of that moment was so real, so right. This is why I know I’m on the right path. I feel like I've achieved all the pieces of a puzzle, but now I need those pieces to come together. It's like I have the border done, but I just can't seem to get the rest of it put together.
So, what has my pep talk been about? It’s really just what I said August would be like: "to uncover what's not working, clarify what truly matters, and commit to growth that's grounded in authenticity." I know what isn't working, and I've identified what truly matters to me. Now, I'm trying to figure out how to grow it. It's like my Morning Whispers. I really enjoy doing this. I know social media is more about being on autopilot and scrolling than it is about reading. But I like making these posts, and if my "Seeds for Thought" helps even one person, it’s worth posting.
My mind then wandered to my blog on the Virgo New Moon: A Green Light to Begin, and of course, this new moon is ruled by Mercury. There’s a message here; I’m just not seeing it. I'm overthinking it.
Back to the pep talk: I need to get organized. I need to put the pieces into organized piles and work on one section at a time. I can revamp. There’s nothing wrong with going "under construction," as long as it feels right. Don't force it. Sometimes you have to step away from one section and work on the next.
When you feel stuck, it’s not always about finding a new way forward. Sometimes, the most important thing to do is to get back to the basics and get organized. Break your big goal down into smaller, manageable pieces, and tackle them one at a time. You have the vision, and you've already done the hard work of collecting the pieces—now, it's about putting them together with intention.
