“ No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”

Buddha

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: The need this week is to put more focus on emotional security and self-care. Practicing deeper concentration brings an understanding of self and your own needs in order to heal, make better decisions, and more effectively work with life. As you love, cherish, and nurture yourself, you’ll begin to identify the small details that make a big difference in matters that mean the most to you. As your own best friend, you become the change you’d like to see in others. However, as long as your attention and energy are drawn to (or drained by) the outside world, you’re not refining your inner self. Following your own path helps you maintain perspective and prevents problems from overwhelming you. Trust your intuition to lead you to what enriches your soul, as this enables you to breathe new life and hope into matters that appeared dead.
