Be sure to do all your chasing around today because tomorrow, or even later today, you won’t feel like it. You move into Ferdinand the Bull mode where you just want to stop, eat, and smell the roses. For a while today your diplomatic skills will be put to the test.  Hear out both sides, and be prepared to satisfy no one.  But later they’ll come back and thank you.  A discrete and perceptive woman can help you out today, and a man will push through your agenda in a way you are too timid to think of.

 You have a special aptitude for jokes today, for saying the “bon mot” that cheers you and others up.  Singing, poetry, and pleasant writing or conversation enhances the day.  Call a happy friend; enjoy siblings or partners with whom time passes agreeably.  Remember that a happy voice is the vehicle of love that we listen to the tone of voice more carefully than to what is said.  Watch your tone when speaking.  We all need comfort, and comfort often comes from sound…lullabies, whistling, and singing. cheerful greetings. Love and communication are intermingled.  Make someone happy today.  You may just change a life.  Remember the man on his way to commit suicide that was smiled at and greeted by a stranger.  And he decided to live.  Love makes the world go ’round.

You are back on terra firma and you don’t especially like what you see at first glance.  You must deal with a discouraging situation that you wish would go away.  Higher ups or governmental bodies will vote you down or ignore you, so don’t look for help from them.  Help DOES come from energetic activity, a can-do attitude, and enthusiasm.  Take the attitude that life is one problem after another and consider the good things you have achieved.  There is a specific tendency to narrow your attention and focus on the problem.  Widen your scope; look at the blessings in your life.  Think of the things that make you happy, the real accomplishments of your life, and how you have grown and changed over time.  Looking at the big picture gives you perspective.  This too shall pass.  You can handle it!

Someone comes up with a task or idea that you consider nuts, and you will probably tell them so.  Try to be kind to an enthusiastic airhead.  Give the person a chance, listen to the ideas.  You just could have something to learn about inspiration.  Or perhaps you are the enthusiastic airhead.  Be aware that your audience holds this opinion and be careful in your presentation.   If both sides listen well and incorporate the views of the opposite side, something can come into being.   Neither side is correct, strictly speaking.  Women or household units make a change in the way they do things that puts them in sync with the times and has far reaching implications for success.

Congratulations, you have successfully negotiated a tricky time.  Now is the time to relax.  A bit of housework or gardening, some fixing up of things needing repairs, will be pleasant.  You could find something you forgot or thought you’d lost for good.  As you putter around with your tasks be aware that you are actually engaging in archaeology.  What you find can solve a problem.  Pay attention to your ideas, a bit of archaeology is also going on in your thinking.  During the course of the day an “aha” or a “eureka” moment can occur.  You can put together the pieces of a mental or emotional puzzle that had you stumped.  This can turn into quite an amazing day.

Hope is present in the form of a happy woman or child, or a nurturing person.  Intelligent decisions are made and loving conversations take place.  You feel cheerful again and you have the confidence to tackle work that seemed overwhelming.  A canny intuitive intelligence is driving the day, and this force is enormously encouraging and helpful.  People in charge, leaders, are compassionate and inspiring.   Diplomatic speech results in close relationships and good friendships.  Go to the movies or a theatrical production.  Tell jokes, be happy!  But be careful not to overdo.  Dorothy Parker warned “Drink and dance and laugh and lie. Love, the reeling midnight through.  For tomorrow we shall die! (But, alas, we never do)”.

A definite ending or completion of a situation occurs today.  This coincides with the appearance of something brand spanking new on the horizon that is stimulating and a confidence builder.   Yudhisthira, when asked what is the most amazing thing in life, replied “That a man, seeing others die all around him, never thinks he will die.”  Something has come to an end.   Accept this with grace and look to the new that appears to take its place.    Think of everything that changes shape; the cocoon to butterfly, the kernel to popcorn.  What seems to be a death could be a change of form, a transformation..    Remember the cycle of life, stay open to all possibilities, and you will be happy.

It Takes Virtue

An excerpt from a teaching by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo from the Vow of Love series

You only have to consider the suffering of sentient beings long enough to help you create within yourself a virtuous mindstream. Once you have created a virtuous mindstream, you no longer need consider suffering. It is not useful to suffer considering suffering. It is only useful if it compels you on a path that ends suffering. That is the point.

Having heard this teaching, I hope you never become weary hearing your teachers talk about suffering. You will only hear about suffering long enough for you to soften your mind and change the way you live. You will only hear about it long enough to fill your life with virtuous and compassionate acts. If you are not completely convinced that all sentient beings are suffering, you can’t help them. You won’t help them. You won’t have the strength or the fortitude to persevere. But once your mind is stable in the practice of compassion, once you are moved by compassion to where it is a fire in your heart and you can’t do anything except that which will end suffering, that which will bring enlightenment to all sentient beings, you don’t need to meditate on suffering anymore. You are already on fire. Once you are convinced of the infallibility of cause and effect, to the extent that there is no more non-virtue in your mindstream, you don’t need to think about suffering anymore. There is no point. You are already doing what is necessary to end suffering. However, once you are so filled with compassion that your whole life is virtuous, your whole life is a vehicle for nothing but compassionate activity, and once you are convinced of the infallibility of cause and effect to the extent that there is no more non-virtue in your mindstream, you are also enlightened!

The point is this. You are receiving this teaching for a certain reason. You might think you are just curious, or interested in Buddhism and would like to explore it a little further. Or you may think you would like to deepen, or you would like to learn all things from all places. Or you may be interested in becoming a Buddhist. Whatever your particular format, you do have a reason, and I bet that reason is based upon the fact that you want to find a way out of suffering not only for yourself, but for all sentient beings as well. When I say ‘out’, I don’t mean that you want to get enlightened and then leave. I mean that you want to find a way out of the kind of mindstream, the kind of phenomena that causes suffering in both you and in all sentient beings. You want to see if there is another option.

Even if you haven’t faced that fact exactly in your heart, you are looking for something, and you are a good person. You wouldn’t be receiving this teaching if you were not a good person. You must be interested; you must have karma with the idea of compassion. Because of the infallible way that karma works, you could not receive this teaching if you didn’t have the karma of compassionate activity. You must have a tremendous amount of virtue squirreled away somewhere. I am not claiming I am such a virtuous teacher that you have to be particularly virtuous to hear me. That is not what I am saying. I am saying that in order to hear the word ‘compassion,’ in order to hear the word ‘Bodhicitta’, in order to even hear these ideas from any source, you have to have a tremendous amount of virtue, because that is the Buddha’s teaching.
