February, already? January moved quickly around these parts, and I am not saying I’m glad it is over, but also I hope it can rest in peace. I will be recovering for a while from January’s shenanigans.

Here is the astrological and medicine reading of the month. The Earth Medicine is aligned with my desktop calendar for the year, but if you do not have it, no worries, I talk about it all in the Podcast, and will be covering the medicine each week in depth with ideas, meditations and what not. Our thought of the month is this:

A secret: I learned to hold my boundaries after many wild storms of tears and betrayal.

If you want to work with this thought of the month as a journal practice, I would ask these questions:

Which storms through your life have taught you how lousy you are at boundaries?
How?
What are the betrayals you have gone through in your life?
What lessons did you learn from betrayals?
How did your boundaries change?
How did trust change?
Have you learned to trust again once you had secure boundaries?
If you haven’t, how can you adjust your boundaries to ensure you feel safe?
