Material Witness | Love Notes

December 6-13, 2024

“The older I get, the more I stay focused on the acceptance of myself and others, and choose compassion over judgement and curiosity over fear.”

Tracee Ellis Ross

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: While the material world can be a playground of enjoyment, be careful of being too attached to outcomes, especially if you fail to draw the line in excess of what’s good for you. Situations that stem from temptation can also prompt actions that are hurtful or dishonorable. If you’ve been on the receiving end or tempted to respond in-kind, the message is for charitable examination to understand the real cause of certain behaviors. Viewing matters more objectively helps you hone in on habits that are rooted in childhood experiences, unresolved emotional issues or lessons that need to be completed from other lives. If a particular pattern keeps coming up in your life, the answer to resolution is likely to stop repeating the same response. This might suggest forgiveness, confrontation or a time out for self-healing to develop a more compassionate attitude toward self and others.
