Turned out to be fairly accurate! Yay!
See, I suck at reading for myself. I can read for other people, but when I read for myself I'm WAY too personally involved, so its rarely accurate.
Things did fly out of left field at me during my meetings on Friday. Went to a networking lunch and was pressured to consider taking about three jobs! Its very nice to be offered, but I'm really happy where I am and don't plan on moving. Unless the museum refused to give me health insurance! (That was part of the pitch to me: "we can pay you more and give you more benefits") See, its really important to me that I can work from home in the near future. David and I are about to start trying for a baby, and I don't want to quit work after I have kids - but I want to work from home (and that is an option where I work now, but not at this other place). So, things were moving quickly and offers being made - but I kept my cool fairly well and stayed in control.
This week is Day Camp Week - so it will be long and tiring!
Today in church we talked about how important it is to meditate and pray daily to stay connected to God and to live in peacefulness. Doing a daily tarot reading is a meditation - it forces you to find a calm, quiet place and participate in a ritual - shuffling the cards and laying them out. Then you think about your life and how it pertains to the symbols laid out in front of you.
People who meditate daily are more focused, healthier, happier, and more satisfied with their lives. There are all kinds of studies showing that meditating can actually improve your IQ even!

I don't think I have any regular meditation rituals, though I should start playing scales again now that I have my trombone mouthpiece back. I do have the whole houkah cleaning and preparation and smoking ritual, but that's not nearly daily nor healthy (especially if it were done daily).
