Against the Current
Oct. 18th, 2011 06:23 pmGEMINI (May 21-June 20): As I was meditating on your horoscope this afternoon, I gazed out my window at the creek flowing nearby. The tide was coming in, which meant that the current was surging swiftly south. Row upon row of small waves were coursing through the water. Then I spied a lone duck swimming north against the tide. I couldn't imagine what her motivation was. Why not just relax and float downstream? She wasn't in a hurry and wasn't in the least flustered. Ever forward she went, determined to push on. And then it struck me, as I thought of your current astrological omens, that her approach would also suit you quite well right now. Go steadily and casually against the flow, Gemini.
As has been true of late, this is quite spot on for me though I don't feel terribly clam. At the moment, I feel like the calmness is a facade and I'm madly paddling underneath the surface to get where I'm going. I need to keep reminding myself that I do know where I'm going, its just the map keeps changing on me and what I have to do to get there.
It started raining today on my walk back from a late lunch and the getting heavier rain made me think of Wellington and walking around the city by the Cook Strait on many days. One thing I was good at in Wellington was being social as I was lucky enough to really connect with the Gaming club at Victoria. When I was doing my degree, it was hard to find the time to be social with other SI students as our schedules were so busy, but I'm trying to go to more events and do things.
Since I'm having a low moment, I'm going to see if I can try and finish one of my fics and possibly post it later.
