You Can’t Start A Fire Worried About Your Little World Falling Apart
Eclipses always denote intensity. Expect the next two weeks to bring swift, sudden and shocking news. Events unfold quickly and intensely so be mindful to very deliberately ground yourself over the next two weeks. Use grounding practices like meditation, ground yourself by walking barefoot on the earth several minutes (or more if it’s not too cold!) and ask your crystal friends like Tiger’s Eye, Smoky Quartz and Hematite to help stabilize you. Otherwise you may get swept up in this lunar swirl of events. The stories and happenings that occur the next two weeks will take six months to unfold. So write down your observations and events the next few weeks and then set a calendar reminder to go back and review them through the information that comes out in September time frame. Secrets and wrongs always want to be revealed and righted. Universal law.
