POWER ANIMAL OF THE WEEK – TURTLE
TURTLE – RETREAT – STOP TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN
Intuitive Message – Release the outcome to the Universe. Breathe in love, exhale peace. Breathe in deep, into your belly and feel the abundant and loving support that is all around you. Stop trying to force anything. Instead relax, release, let go and flow. You will know when the time is right to move forward again.
Message from guidebook – There’s not a whole lot you can do right now to influence the situation you’re inquiring about. It’s best to back off and wait until it’s time to move forward again. There’s nothing wrong with that, especially given the futility of trying to make something happen right now. Patience is what’s called for. Eventually you can stick your neck out a little at a time to determine if it’s time to come out and make some progress toward your goal. A retreat is not defeat. Make it a conscious and intentional choice instead.
You could stand to spend some time by yourself in nature, away from the intensity of your usual life. Although we call this a retreat, it’s really more of a movement toward the peace and harmony you’ll find in the woods, at the mountains, or by the seashore. Doing so also help you connect with Mother Earth, and when you do, it helps put everything in proper perspective. The ocean’s been there a long, long time, and will continue to be. And every day there’s a sunset, no matter what else has happened.
