Choosing a New Way
Sagittarius Daily Horoscope
You could feel restless and ready to make changes in your life today. Perhaps you are reevaluating your life’s direction or focusing on a few key areas that could use improvement. If you’ve been feeling bored or dissatisfied with any part of your life lately, you could benefit from introspection. Examining the main facets of your life will likely reveal the areas that need a breath of fresh air. You also may want to consider how your previous actions have contributed to your situation today. While you may not be responsible for every situation, your choices have most likely played a role in creating your current circumstances. If you can take responsibility for your life and become aware of the connections between your actions and their results, you can make beneficial decisions.
By gaining a clear understanding of how our actions create our results, we can learn to make wiser decisions. It can be easy to make our decisions on autopilot without thought to the consequences. Our decisions can take on new depth and meaning, however, if we can consider the outcome we wish to create and take the steps that can bring it about. We become cocreators with the universe and gain greater control over our circumstances. By understanding that each decision you make today contributes to a specific result, you can let your choices lead you down an exciting path of growth and fulfillment.

Letting Life Unfold
Present In The Progression
by Madisyn Taylor
Present time can be hard, but life unfolds as it will and the universe will wait as we make our way into the unknown.
Our lives are guided by natural rhythms that are particular to each of us and cannot be altered by force of will alone. Life itself is a journey made up of processes and events that manifest before us only to be swept away when time marches on. Whether we envision ourselves creating a career, building a family, or developing the self, we instinctively know when the time has come for us to realize our dreams because all that is involved comes together harmoniously. When the time is right, the passage of destiny cannot be blocked. Yet as desperate as we are to touch these beautiful futures we have imagined, we cannot grow if we are not fully present in the evolutionary experience. The present can be challenging, uncomfortable, and tedious, but life unfolds as it will, and the universe will wait patiently as we make our way into the unknown.
The fate that awaits us is not dependent on our pace, which was preordained before we ever appeared in human guise. Therefore there is no reason to rush through life to reach those pinnacles of development associated with the paths we have chosen. Enjoying and fully experiencing the journey of life is as important as achieving goals and reaching milestones. There are lessons we can learn during those moments that seem immaterial or insignificant that we cannot learn at any other time. Appreciating these takes patience, however, because human beings tend to focus on the fulfillment of expectations rather than the simple joys of being.
Like many people, you have no doubt longed for a device that would give you the power to fast forward through certain periods of your existence. Yet haste is by its very nature vastly more stressful than serene fortitude. When you feel yourself growing impatient because the pace of your development is deceptively slow, remember that everything that will occur in your life will occur in its own time. Quelling your urge to rush will enable you to witness yourself learning, changing, and becoming stronger. There is so much to see and do in between the events and processes that we deem definitive. If you are patient enough to take pleasure in your existence's unfolding, the journey from one pinnacle to the next will seem to take no time at all.
