“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”

E.E. Cummings

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: Although the popularity and acceptance of knock-offs, dupes, and reproductions have steadily increased in the world of commerce, a counterfeit life doesn’t offer much value. This week, circumstances compel you to fearlessly reexamine where you’ve been, where you are, and where you might go if you don’t allow old, fearful habits that make you doubt what you’re doing and trick you into playing an inauthentic self. Situations will tend to stimulate the awareness that on some level, you haven’t been living your best self or your best life. Despite uncertainty about the future, now’s the time to consciously choose the path that’s right for you instead of the one that seems likely to draw you in or the one you feel you ought to walk.

You’ve come as far as possible with an illusion and must now develop the will to leave the past behind so that you can direct energy to new interests. This may require that you first address what’s been avoided or held off on completing, whether it’s important paperwork, attention to your finances, changes in business, or concerns related to emotional, mental, or physical health. Alternatively, it may be positive action toward others in need. The point is to stop putting things off in favor of taking the steps that are sure to create potent momentum with many new possibilities.
