You may need a wilder, more intense sweetness

In order for you to be the best seeker of right view, I suggest that you combine a rigorous and dispassionate curiosity with a skepticism that is out of the question. Driven by broader pursuits rather than bad temper.

To do this, you have to be willing to suspend your brilliant theories about how the world works from time to time.

humorously accept the possibility that what you have learned in the past may not be a reliable guide to understanding the new phenomena before you now.

is suspicious of your biases, even rational and well-intentioned biases. When you strip away the explanations that come with your emotional tendencies, your heart will open more.

My teacher Ann Davies writes: "Before we can accept the unbiased truth about everything, we must be prepared to skip over the things we really want to be true."

At the same time, don't become a rigid person , a poker-faced robot. Maintain your tenderness and acceptance. Remember your natural affection for all creation. Enjoy the power of gentle compassion as it prompts you to explore the unimaginable revelations that each new moment brings.

Receptivity

Receptivity is not a passive state. Nor is it a blank void, waiting for anything to happen. In urging you to cultivate your sensibilities, I am not saying that you should become a goalless lazy person who reacts blindly to everything in life.

Receptivity is a powerful state of readiness to be surprised and moved. It is a strong intention to stay awake to everything that is beyond your control. When you experience acceptance in the Right View style, you have powerful ideas and a powerful will, eager to spread your unique blessings, but you are also inspired by a humble assurance that you still have so much more to offer. Need to learn.

Most people confuse innocence with childishness. Conventional wisdom holds that innocence is reserved for children, fools, and novices who lack the mature experience to understand the hard truths of life.

But the Beauty and Truth Lab endorses an entirely different kind of innocence. It is based on the understanding that the world is always changing and therefore deserves to see something new and different every day. This alternative innocence is fueled by an active determination to continually purge one's imagination of all preconceptions.

Clarissa Pinkola Estés wrote in the book "Women with Wolves", "Ignorance is knowing nothing and being attracted by beautiful things, while innocence is knowing everything but still being attracted by beauty." "

Aries Frank O'Hara , who was born under the zodiac sign of Aries, wrote in his poem "Literary Autobiography": "When I was a child, I was playing alone in a corner of the campus. If someone came looking for me, I would hide behind a tree and yell, ‘I’m an orphan’. Over the years, however, O'Hara underwent a startling transformation. This is how his poem ends: "Here I am, the center of all beauty!" Write these poems! Imagine that! "Over the next few months, Aries, I suspect you will also be able to move beyond past sadness or embarrassment. The shadow of an old source of pain may not completely disappear, but I bet it will lose much of what weakened you. Power.

Taurus William Blake (1757-1827) advocated “seeing a world in a grain of sand.” See a paradise in a wild flower. Hold infinity in the palm of your hand. "According to my interpretation of astrology omens, Taurus, you are ready to do just that in the coming days. You have the ability to discern the divine in mundane events. The magic and mystery of life will emerge from what you encounter." Shine out in every little thing.Therefore, I would be happy if you could convey the following message to the people you care about: "Now I understand that the beauty I cannot find in this world is in you."

Gemini Philosopher Bert Lan Russell said: "Time you like to waste is not time wasted.". I would add that the time you like to waste is often crucial to your happiness. For the sake of your sanity and health, you need to periodically give up your ambitions and avoid your responsibilities as safely as possible. In these refreshing emptinesses, you recharge your precious life energy. You are like a piece of land left fallow, allowing fertile nutrients to regenerate. In my astrological perspective, this is one of your rejuvenating phases.

Cancer Cancer writer Emma Lazarus (Emma Lazarus, 1849-1887) wrote: "My own curiosity and interest are insatiable.". Inspired by the rich influences she absorbed, she wrote a series of poems, plays, novels, essays, and translations, including the famous poem that graces the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty in the United States. Cancerian, I suggest she set an example for you in the coming weeks. I think you are mature enough to expand and deepen your curiosity. You will benefit from cultivating a passionate pursuit of new information and new influences. Here’s a mantra for you: “When I live out the teachings of my soul, I am profoundly innocent.”

Leo blogger Scott Williams writes: “There are two kinds of magic. One comes From heroic leaps, upward surges of energy, arcs of explosions blazing across the sky, the other is the slowly increasing effort: water spells on stones, soft roots of plants splitting the pavement, a steady wind sweeping the mountain clean. "Leo, can you guess what kind of magic will be your specialty in the coming weeks? It will be a hard, slow accumulation of effort. This is the perfect place to complete your most important tasks.

Virgo "Now that I can be myself, who am I?" Virgo-born Mary Oliver posed this question as she began one of her poems. She spends the rest of the poem speculating on possible answers. Ultimately, she concludes, what she longs for most is to be a "vessel of emptiness, waiting, purity, and wordlessness." That might be fine for a poet with a lot of time on his hands, but I wouldn't recommend it. Do so in the coming weeks. Instead, I hope you will be rich, active, busy, experimental, and expressive. It’s the best way to celebrate that you’re now freer to be yourself than you were before.

Libra Ursula K. LeGuin, born under the sign of Libra, wrote in her book "Tales From Earthsea": "Things that remain unchanged for too long will destroy themselves. The forest is eternal because it dies and dies, so there is life.” I believe you are embodying these truths right now. You're at a stage in the cycle where you can't afford to stay the same. You need to participate passionately and purposefully in dissolution to pave the way for rebirth in the weeks following your birthday. The process may feel laborious at times, but it should be fun in the end.

Scorpio As a Scorpio, novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky rarely made the mistake of simplistic. Like any intelligent person, he can keep contradictory ideas in his mind without feeling compelled to seek more superficial truths. "The reasons for human actions are often more complex than our subsequent explanations for them," he writes. I hope you can draw inspiration from his example in the coming weeks, dear Scorpio. I trust you will resist the temptation to reduce colorful mysteries to straightforward explanations. Every story has at least three sides. I invite you to savor glorious paradoxes and rich mysteries.

Sagittarius Writer Zadie Smith Praise for Sagittarius author Joan Didion.She said: “One day I picked up Joan Didion and walked listlessly towards Bethlehem, and I am still grateful that I realized that a woman can speak without hesitating, without hemming and hawing, without having to please, without having to listen. It doesn't have to be submissive or even unquestioning. "Over the next few weeks, I encourage Sagittarians of all genders to take inspiration from Didion. This is a great time to ask for more power. Speak your kaleidoscope of wisdom without apologizing or watering it down. Embody your high ideals more strongly than ever before and show how they play out in the rhythms of daily life.

CapricornCapricorn Novelist Marcia Douglas has written several books about the history of the people of Jamaica. In one article, she wrote: "My grandmother used to tell stories about women who turned into birds and lizards. One day a man who went to church dared to laugh at her; he said it was too much for him to bear. My grandmother looked at him and said, 'I bet you believe Jesus turned water into wine.' "Capricorn, my purpose in telling you this is to encourage you to cultivate and celebrate your own fantasy stories." Life is not all rationality and pragmatism. You need myth and magic to thrive. You need imagination and artistic talent, as well as a lyrical imagination. This is especially true now. To paraphrase David Byrne, now is the perfect time to avoid explaining too much.
