What you say makes complete sense. Thanks for saying it. As we become more
of who we are... more whole, we become more balanced in every area, which is
the whole purpose of kundalini (imo). You spoke of balance, and I do see we
have to honour our boundaries in order to be at peace and in balance.
Everyone's boundaries are different -- someone with a much larger extended
boundary is no better than a smaller one, although the larger one may be
irked by the smaller one that they need to be less disciplined, more open.
and the smaller one may be irked by the larger one that they need to be more
disciplined, more closed. This comes from within also, because we do not
know who we are in a particular area yet.
Knowing our own boundaries are what brings us peace. Boundaries do not make
us 'limited'. They represent who we are right here, right now. For many,
other's boundaries represent an action taken that we approve or disapprove of
because it is/isn't within our own boundaries. I see that our boundaries
are not based on what actions we take by the moral majority, but 'does (what
I am doing/saying/eating/drinking) bring ME peace?' Peace is the boundary
line. Peace has no limits, and is what is limitless. Find your boundary
lines (who you are), and you are limitless in every area.
My daughter was a stripper, and she got such joy out of it! She got to wear
beautiful evening gowns (to take off!), fancy accessories she loved, got
loads of attention that she literally was paid good $$ for; she got to travel
the world with the money she made. As long as she was happy and doing what
she loved, I was happy too. :-) There came a time where she became totally
stressed, and was no longer happy doing what she was doing. She was now
doing it only for the money, found an absolutely maniacal controlling man to
*save* her, and was creating illness in her life. I metaphorically grabbed
her by the ear and told her to 'stop the madness!' ... to quit, and find her
joy again. Luckily she listens to me since I do not judge her actions, but
I will judge her for not honouring her own self and not noticing her
boundaries and what makes her happy. She moved back to Hawaii which she
loved and once again found her happiness in a successful art career, writing,
and now is married to THE most beautiful man that I would have picked for her
myself.
There are certain things that we say, we do, we eat or drink, that make us
feel better or worse, or the same. If we are balanced, the same is good! If
we are unbalanced, better or worse are our guidelines. I know two wines are
pretty much my limit. More than that, and I either fall asleep, dance on a
table, or throw up. Like you, El, when I write a sarcastic post in humor,
at times, it brings me out of peace if I think I may have hurt someone (even
if I didn't!) no matter the applause I receive. I knew I had to find a
better way of saying something, or not say it at all until I was balanced in
that area. As I begin honoring myself like you speak of, more truth comes
forth, because I am becoming truer to myself, and to others. This post of
your observations of your transitory occurrances in your life is a way around
'not speaking' -- just going with the flow, speaking your truth of where you
are right now. It is beautiful and makes for great reading. Thanks.

I used to absolutely hate Saturn transits... ewwwwwww. Now I've come to love
them, especially going through the houses, as it balances me so much more by
the time it's through with the house.

LOL! I can certainly understand that. Astrology is fasinating to be aware
of the energies that we are facing and just allowing them to flow. I can
see you are observing them well. You can observe them so well because you
are beautifully balanced already, despite Mercury/Saturn voices.
For me, it was wonderful seeing the humorous part of you come out too since I
love humor so much. I hope to see more. But definitely not at the loss of
your serious side which we have come to love and enjoy too -- we learn much
from both. I'm sure by the end of this 'fun' transit, you'll find the
balance in that particular area and be able to post (whatever!) in peace. In
the meantime, I'm enjoying your posting your observations of this madness.
Thanks for bringing up this subject of balance, wholeness, boundaries, which
all make up who we are... it is kundalini at work!
Love,xxxtg
