TIMES OF OUR LIVES
 

The Sun enters March in Pisces a mutable (flexible) Water Sign. Pisces is the sign of the fish.  One swims up and one swims down. Pisces rules the feet.  Pisces people are highly intuitive, emotional and sensitive. They take care of others. Many times they are nurses, psychologists, and social workers. Because of their imagination and sensitivity they also love to act, and be creative.    
I seem to love all Pisces - maybe because I have a
Pisces son and Pisces Moon.

MIND - QUOTATIONS

The best way to predict the future is to create it.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.  Eleanor Roosevelt

Blessed are the Flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

BE YOURSELF - Everyone else is already taken. Oscar Wilde

 

BODY: MOVING INTO SPRING

As the days get longer, it is easier to lose weight.  We have more sunshine and outdoor time. March and April are the best months to start. Spring cleaning is as important in the body as it is in your house.   Many cleanse and fast in the Spring for a new start, rejuvenation and renewal. 
 
Spring is the greening season.  Nature awakes and we do too.  In Chinese medicine the organs highlighted for Spring are the liver and gall bladder. The emotion related to those organs is ANGER. Springtime is opportunity to look at old habits and old anger with a new awareness. Remove anger and angry situations.

Eat a lighter fare with whole unprocessed foods, lots of fresh fruits, vegetables and greens.  Eat less meat and dairy. Fried foods, oils and chemicals are hard for the liver to digest. Be aware of what you are eating, how you are eliminating and watch skin health.  Blemishes can be caused by what you eat and incomplete digestion. Don't forget physical activity.  It clears the mind and the body.

SPIRIT:   LAW OF SURRENDER - EMBRACE A HIGHER WILL
 
Surrender according to Judith Orloff MD, is the ability to be fluid, to bend like a willow in the wind during life's climaxes and lows.  It is not having to clench, obsess, over control or fight with oneself.  It is shifting without anger, moving toward that which gives joy and spiritual expansion.

Surrender  according to Dan Millman means accepting this moment,  this body, and this life with open arms.  Surrender involves getting out of our own way and living in accord with a higher will. More than passive acceptance, surrender uses every challenge as a means of spiritual growth  and expanded awareness.

When we stop resisting and surrender to a situation, exactly as it is, things begin to change. Resistance is the number one culprit in denying us our right to heal.  We resist out of fear that if we let go, if we surrender, our lives will go out of control or we be faced with circumstances we can't handle. When we are willing to look at the situation and admit we don't know how to fix it, we are ready to get the help. ASK the angels are listening.
