I spent the past few hours contemplating over what I think (which has been boldened) might be my zodiac sign. I used the Divine Chronicles to help me learn about the traits associated with the elements and animals - and I am certain that the Water Monkey describes me the best! As I poured over the scrolls, one word really stuck out to me <b> MISCHIEF I do love a good joke and poking fun at others. Of course, I never mean to do harm with those jokes because I also have a lot of empathy. Would I make fun of someone for something that would be hurtful? No! (Or at least I would not intend to do so.) A note on that empathy part - it also allows me to be a better healer. I am able to understand the mind pains and body aches. Or at least I am able to do so enough to help calm a person so that I can provide the services I am capable of. Resourcefulness is another aspect that I share with the Monkey. As you may have already noticed, I have taken a vow of poverty so I must rely on the community's charity in most case. Or, as a poet, go out and find a way to get whatever I might need through a more tedious method. This resourcefulness opens way to the water trait of fluidity. I may not always be able to get what I want, but I am completely capable of redirecting myself into another channel so that I might still be able to benefit from the blockade in front of me. The monkey is able to traverse the air, as it can be rather high up in the trees, and land. I do not think they can swim very well - but if they could; that would make this connection even stronger! The earth that yields everything to us and the heavens that inspire us. I like this dichotomy... it reflects what I hope to achieve during my druid training. On the topic of trees and the monkey; they often have to swing from tree to tree to tree to tree to tree to tree. I think you get the point. My mind is rather fleeting. I am often running from one task to one idea to one job to one whisper to one meditation session back to one idea but then run back to the task before I got what I was doing. And then I need to get my soup off of the stove before Yunsil yells at me... Wait. I lost control. Bring it back in. Yes, the water monkey is what I believe myself to be. I hope that is what my birth charts show. | |
