TRUNKS
15 JULY
SUMMARY
When everything seems to be falling apart around you, remember thatit is your perception that is changing, not the world itself. The worldcontinues its course with its ups and downs, and it is our internalstability that gives the sense of chaos or order. Reflect on theprinciples you have based your life on and recognize that they are partof a larger path. This journey includes transitioning roles, frommaternal to paternal energy, finding your true axis in this process. Byhonoring your roots and accepting both what you have inherited and whatyou wish to transform, you can find strength and balance, becoming apillar that unites heaven and earth.
