So today we write again and speak of the unease of universal uncertainty. Uncertainty because women are looking for more. And as you look for more so that which you fill your days with, your occupation, becomes of questionable worth to you. Is this what you really want? Is this who you really are? Or is it some slight of fate that you find yourself counselling / selling / cooking? Take time and study the responses from your body as you move through that daily occupation. Yes, take time - quite a feat to just take TIME to listen to your body. What is happening in your body as you respond to a customer / to a child / to a partner? Does your body levitate or does your body deflate? If it deflates you will feel overwhelming tiredness, despondency.

So look at these negative emotions, emotions that make you feel sad. Ask yourself for what purpose you are doing the task. For self gratification? To make yourself feel important? For financial reward? For an opportunity to be busy?

Do you respond yes? If so, look at the effort you place around those questions. Ask yourself, do I receive joy from my occupation or do I receive satisfaction that I have been needed? If the latter, that you received satisfaction from being needed, then that is singularly destructive to you as a burgeoning woman.

You may well maintain the occupation, but do so without attachment of feeling that you have been needed. Instead, feel personal joy at your ability, at your glow of satisfaction. With any occupation, serve yourself first and foremost. If not, the occupation will take energy from you and so you become immersed in overwhelmment and negative emotions.

Any occupation can be achieved if you intend to complete the process for your personal joy. This is important as this will enable you to grow in all you do. Some occupations are not your ultimate choice but they are the destiny, that is, they are part of what you must work at and endure to proceed fully on your journey - trust in this process.

Remain in joy, observe the feeling of joy in your body, the glow of satisfaction that it brings.

Go well, take time. With love, Athena.
