Twos Day
Happy Twosday.
Today is 2/22/22 and one of the first US Pluto Returns. One of the first? Yep. Pluto is a slow-moving planet and it retrogrades for 6 months every year so it will return to 27 degrees Capricorn a couple of more times until 2023.
Don’t let it get to you though. Just because the US is falling apart doesn’t mean you have to.
Today, I pulled The Lovers. If I pulled this two years ago, I would have felt completely different. It use to be my less favorite Major. Why? Because I never really understood the feeling of romantic love. I have had many friends who fallen in puppy love, love, and lust and I have always been so confused. When I was younger, peers and families members always use to say “oh you will just know when it happens to you.” and I never have. So whenever I pulled The Lovers if felt like the universe was mocking me.
I suffered for 4 years in an all-girls school. Suffered. I hated it. I am still exploring the many reasons, but something like The Lovers made it worse. It seemed that there were a ton of girls who were falling in love. Falling in lust. Overcome with all these emotions that are so completely foreign to me. Peers and family members saying things like “Oh you’ll know it when it happens to you.” “You’re just a late bloomer.” “You just have to meet the right person.” It made me feel like there was something wrong with me. weird. broken. Now there’s a better word aromantic.
Some people hate labels, but having a name and knowing that I am not alone is very freeing. I don’t care if you fall in love 20 times a day. I don’t care if you fall in love once. I don’t care if you don’t fall in love at all. This is all normal. Younger me needed to know that she wasn’t strange or broken, but there’s a ton of people who feel the same way.
Now the Lovers card means something different to me. It’s not the universe mocking me. Feeling romantic love isn’t important to me and that’s okay. It is much more about how I am treating myself. How am I partnering with the universe to be a better person? How am I being partnering with my other non-romantic partnerships? Am I being a team player? Am I being the best me?
As someone who is notorious for taking care of others instead of herself, it is actually an important card for me. A check-in. What can I do today for me so that I can feel harmonious?
I took a nap and had food that made me feel good.
What can you do for you?
