the laughing heart
Charles Bukowski

your life is your life

don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.

be on the watch.

there are ways out.

there is a light somewhere.

it may not be much light but

it beats the darkness.

be on the watch.

the gods will offer you chances.

know them.

take them.

you can’t beat death but

you can beat death in life, sometimes.

and the more often you learn to do it,

the more light there will be.

your life is your life.

know it while you have it.

you are marvelous

the gods wait to delight

in you.

It’s not all about you today, and if you try to make it all about you, the Universe will respond in ways you won’t like. You’re not listening, and that’s not helping anyone. Today is a day to right wrongs, make amends, and practice better behaviors. You are not above the laws of karma, and it will go quite badly if you pretend otherwise.

And sweetest—in the Gale—is heard—
And sore must be the storm—
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm—

I’ve heard it in the chillest land—
And on the strangest Sea—
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb—of Me.

The Giants’ Tarot, Raven Kaldera

Draw for November 2, 2016
Active Influence: Ganglati/Four of Wands
Rune: Ehwaz/Horse
Hidden Influence: Duva/Seven of Cups

You may not be sure what you want today. What you are sure of is the importance of treating everyone with kindness and respect (your own self included). Being a jerk to others (or yourself) doesn’t do any good in the moment, and doesn’t create any good in the future. If you must make decisions or take action today, err on the side of generosity and flexibility.

Well, this is a jolly start to the new year. You are coping with a lot of demands on your time and energy, many of which feel thrust upon you unfairly. Even if you are doing something that is supposed to be someone else’s responsibility, it’s yours now. Fulfill it honorably and efficiently. Be aware of your feelings about the situation, and don’t take them out on the wrong person. You are not feeling like yourself today, so breathe twice and think twice before replying to anyone. Even emails. Especially emails.
