The fate you're weaving.

Before I fell asleep last night, I spent time in my prayer room which I've spent sporadic time in the past few months.

When I'm in there regularly, candles lit, eyes closed, paying close attention to the sensations in my body, I'm way more calm and focused when I'm not in there.

Sometimes I set rules for myself: no phone in the prayer room. No overhead lights. No sleeping. Other times, I need to go with the flow of what wants to be. Last night I had my phone because it had questions in it that I wanted to ask myself, and answers I wanted to reflect on.

I have a fluid relationship with endings and beginnings — for example, I see my birthday as the main beginning more so than January 1. However, New Year's Day is a new day, a new month, a new calendar year. There's freshness to it which compels me most years to do some thinking and intention-setting.

This year I was in a pretty tender place, so I held the day loosely. I pulled a card, set it on my altar and moved through the last couple of days. I hadn't journaled or done any fresh start spreads. Until last night.

In my prayer room with candles lit, notebooks, a pen, and my phone — I read. The most obvious and somewhat embarrassing revelation is that I've been searching for an answer to the same question for longer than I care to admit.

Reading through journal entries from last year, two years ago, a few months ago — JFC, really? Are we still worrying about this?

You know what to do. So what are you doing to solve it?

The thing about fate, destiny, god's will, astral influence (I like this definition) — it really is in our control, and also totally outside of it.

What I mean is we have choice, right? Sometimes only a few, or maybe just one: stay or go, yes or no, in or out? The choice might not be exciting or leading to the promise land, but it's there.

Choices are actions, physically, spiritually, intellectually — and they lead to outcomes. Outcomes are the fate we are weaving.

The fate I'm weaving is based on choices I'm not making, and plenty I've made. And I get to choose again.

What is the fate you're weaving? What choices are you making? What choices are you not making? All of it is a choice after all.

This morning I went into my prayer room to see what wanted to be revealed. New answers were waiting for me. Refreshing, illuminating answers. But, I still have to choose.

Here's to new answers to old questions.

Love,
Annie
