Unlock the Door to Your Self Imposed Cage

by Rhonda

Greetings,
I’m an avid reader and I get a lot of inspiration from what I read. I’m also an astrology buff, so naturally I read a lot about the topic. Today, I was reading about the impending lunar eclipse that will occur on the 22nd. I won’t get into all of the details, but the basic premise is that whatever was started 19 years ago is now coming to completion. At the end of the article is a quote by a man named, Charles Tart, “The key is always within the cage. It takes prolonged self observation to see how attached we are to our own suffering”. If you’re interested, you can read the article here: http://www.mountainastrologer.com/pdfcontent/806Lunations.pdf
Its on page 4 of the PDF file, entitled, Virgo Solar Eclipse – September 22nd

I thought about the quote and acknowledged the truth in that statement. We all hold the key that will unlock the door to our troubles, yet we (me included) tend to ignore it and continue to remain in our cages. We may need to lose weight and have the means to do so, yet we don’t make the effort, or we start and then slide back into our old eating habits and states of mind. This is not limited to fitness and weight loss, but to all of those things that keep us in a negative frame of mind, like our jobs or relationships or whatever. So, in light of the lunar eclipse, its time to take out our pens and paper and write down the things in our lives that we wish were different and really think about what we can do to change them. Today’s affirmation is I will not remain in my self imposed cage. Say it 10 times and mean it. Peace - Rhonda
