'IX The Hermit' and Using Wisely The Time We Have To Be Alone

Mostly a lazy day yesterday...did some laundry and then simply piddled around doing a whole lot of nothing, not paying much attention to anything.  We did go out for a late afternoon coffee and a walk which was quite nice...relaxing and refreshing.  Then we returned home watched a bit of television before heading out to dinner at Patsara Thai Restaurant as we were feeling that lazy and didn't even want to lift a finger to make dinner.  Great food, in our opinion, nothing for us to complain about.  We count ourselves very blessed that we can make such a choice considering that many people might not even have food on the table.  After dinner it was a bit more mind-numbing TV before crawling into bed.

Spirit Is and today's Gay Tarot Energy is and I am “IX The Hermit: To fully understand something, sometimes you must escape it.  Gaining perspective.  Solitude.  Study.”

I'll be a bachelor for five days next week and this card is a reminder to me to use this time of solitude wisely, not to waste it and throw it away.  I have five days of opportunity to delve into the depths of my being  so I can gain a better perspective of who I am and how I can best move forward with my goals.  As I mentioned previously, my website is now a much better reflection of who I am and through a bit of solitude and study I will gain the knowledge and wisdom to take it that one step forward where I'll be rewarded beyond my wildest dreams for my efforts.

So, “IX The Hermit" today is warning us not to squander our time of solitude and instead put to good use and really make something happen with the time we have to spend alone, by ourselves and without interruption if we only choose to shut ourselves from the world for awhile.  And for many this will be a big challenge as some of us have become very wrapped up in the instant communications that today's technology and social media have to offer us.  Remember the choice is ours to make, no one but ourselves forces us to think that we need to be in constant communication with each other and the rest of the world.

“IX The Hermit" is telling us to take a break from that today, so do it!  Challenge yourself to mute your phone and put it in a drawer and spend the next couple of hours with your own thoughts, in meditation, with Spirit.  Discover a new, fresh, and deeper connection with the world around you...the choice is yours to make.

Thank You Spirit.
