Time Alone

Mercury Trine Moon

After an especially hectic period, it’s high time you spent some quality time alone with you. Tend to your nest, order some take-out and soak your poor tired feet.

Because my beloved and I live in different cities about 2.5 hours apart, I have built-in time to come back to my center. Sometimes it’s hard to see the beauty in that because I miss him when we are apart. Two wise women friends suggested that it might help to keep my heart spiritually connected, and still continue my practice of disconnecting all the other cords between us. I decided to try it out over this last weekend. I noticed that I became much more loving when we were together, and that now while we are apart, I still feel so much love, even though he isn’t with me. Not only do I feel more love for him than ever before, but I feel love for everyone and everything that is radiating out from my keeping heart connection to him.

So yesterday while I was looking at a photo of us from our blissful weekend, my beloved sent me a beautiful loving text message, and I realized I hadn’t even missed him yet, was just loving him. And reading his message just amplified the love I was already feeling. I flowed with that love into a whole evening of pampering myself, and it felt good after traveling and playing so much to anchor into being taking a hot bath, putting on my pj’s, reading a book, and spending some quality time with my closest girlfriends. This morning, waking up alone, I had the luxury of time to go on a shamanic healing journey, and then walk through the garden smelling the orange blossoms. What a delight.
