It's All in the Timing

As the local Adelaide Theatre Guide (ATG) prepares for their annual grand nosh-up and Awards night in August I was thinking about theatre and the stars and timing.

When writing reviews for the ATG I noticed that so many directors and actors seemed to get it right with the timing, and some got it very wrong. Like life, much of the success (even the choice of when to do a particular show) was all in the timing. Some of us get it right and others of us get it - well not so much wrong but more as if we drove off in the wrong direction and have to get back into the flow.

I often think of the air traffic over Heathrow Airport. Once when travelling to the UK I was caught in one of those holding patterns. Instead of flying straight to my destination something stopped me/us in mid-air, mid-transit and round and round we went in circles. Life is sometimes like that. "Aha I have been here and done this before, I have seen that emotion, known that person, understood that situation. Why am I back here again"

For me, this is where astrology helps. Sometimes our sense of timing is spot-on, we fly through our work and play with joy. Decisions are easy and fast and we are happy with our choices. Other times we wonder where we went wrong. I saw a post on Facebook today. The person said "Sometimes I just want to scream at the WORLD!!!!!" I guess that person is railing against the timing of an event, or the consequence of a personal choice, or perhaps the effect of someone else's choice.

When momentous decisions face us it is easy to hesitate, ponder, wonder about which is the right path. When we are overwhelmed it is also not surprising that we find it difficult to find our way forward.

Something I read really helped. The article advised...

When feeling overwhelmed, make a list of priorities and then delegate the ones that are not fun.

This then frees us up to get back on track, to re-discover the joys in our lives and to then make the appropriate decisions.

Astrology can also help. A client recently wrote and thanked me for helping her with a consultation. She said that it had really helped her work out the timing of decisions that she needs to make.

With the planet Uranus transiting into the sign of Aries, the time is generally right to consider new paths. The exact timing comes down to individual birth charts.
