STAY QUIET
“A bright mirror in which the Sun’s rays are reflected.” — The 360 Symbolic Degrees
It would be wise to listen to your feelings, even if difficult. Otherwise, you could force yourself to do something you think you should do – but don’t really want to do.
Courage and kindness will bring publicity, but also misunderstanding and criticism – which can be frustrating or confusing. Consider keeping your brilliance and hard work in the background for now.
You can show others that you’re committed, but without pressure. Anxiety levels may be unnecessarily high for all. Breathe. Tap into Cosmic Love.
Listen your feelings instead of desecrating them.
