Right now, what happens behind the scenes is more important than what the world can see. Even though I have much to show for my past efforts, what I am working on in private is potent and precious enough to need my protection. I serve it sincerely. I am devoted to it completely. I am learning the power of playing to the crowd while coveting what is still in rehearsal. 

It’s healing to know what to keep for myself.

The new moon/solar eclipse sets the stage for the next chapter of my journey. It reveals the hidden scripts my mind so often runs through. It exposes my less helpful habits. I makes the unconscious conscious. Though this can sometimes be a startling gift, I know that it is one not to be taken for granted. 

I am willing to love myself more than I fear being alone with myself. I am willing to embrace my less socially acceptable parts in order to embrace the power in them. I welcome any knowledge about myself as both enlightening and a way to praise the messy in me. I’m not striving for perfect, just a deeper understanding of my process.
