Two year cycle, is this related to Mars?

[PhillyGurl]

Something slapped me upside the head this week, like a bolt of lightening called down from above -- a good positive change for the better. Any ideas what this could be from? Mars related or?

It's like I went from being ok with a delusional "situation," to suddenly NOT being ok with it any longer, and making a decision to bust out. Whatever happens seems to fit in line with my desire to cast out fate to the universe (of course not blindly but in a trusting way), exercise patience, being alright with the fact that I am growing and not fearing it. And most of all calming my inner child, who I have learned is much more needy than I ever would have believed.

Thoughts?

1. While Mars does do a 2 year cycle

It was not Mars. It didn't have the earmarks of Mars. Mars slaps you, but not to wake you up. Mars slaps you to ACT.
Uranus AWAKENS.
Uranus crossed your descendant a few days ago. The ascendant/descendant line is you entire attitude/way of being in all relationships. You simply became READY. You weren't quite before.

Congrats.

It could have kept slapping you, or worse. It's a REAL GOOD sign that you paid attention to YOUR OWN inner-promptings. After all, it's not the planet.

I believe that's what it was.

2. Wow Rick,

I'm feeling the same kind of thing...I had a really strong feeling today to act on something pending. Like all excuses were gone.

3. you got it

I suggest you flip your way of looking at it: What I find is: you're READY to act now. Look at what you said to yourself before you were "ready: that kept you "stuck". That's what Uranus is always trying to do - free us from our own blockages which can take many forms.

Uranus makes us FED UP. I.e., if we wait too long, that's how it manifests.

Always best to be proactive with this planet if we can. good luck :hi:

4. Isn't it an amazing feeling?

Like OK, life is not a dress-rehearsal kiddo -- you need to act on this NOW, the whole two weeks before this happened, I felt a rising sense of urgency in my soul. Have you been feeling this way too kimmer?

5. Most Affirmitive!

I believe everything is assembling now, quite ready and in place.

So, you go, girl, and I will, too!

7. It's a deal

Today I started reading Louise Hay's "The Power Within You," -- I didn't intend to buy it because I am on such a limited budget, however I found her way of thinking so profoundly self-nurturing that I decided I would treat myself.

Interestingly enough, since I have adopted this new attitude of "you will make it through this, OK you might have done it sooner, but you weren't ready, now you are, be kind and supportive of yourself..." all sorts of opportunities are opening up for me, it's like I've tapped into some deep wellspring, a Universal source of goodwill. I've been in counseling before, so this negative self-talk (I am really hard on myself, from the standpoint that I am highly educated, but I beat myself up because I am not where I 'think' I 'should' be in life) that I had been indulging in for awhile is nothing new. It just needs to be reframed, and once I remembered how to look at things from another angle and be good to ME, think positively everyday, talk to and calm my inner child, I feel more capable of taking on just about anything that comes at me. Every night before I go to bed, I thank the Universe for changing me, although at times it has been so hard and painful, and I ask for help (this is another area that is hard for me, I always wait until it is almost too late to reach out for assistance).

When I look back at my life, I have had so many varied experiences and challenges, I've met all of them head on and emerged victorious, albeit sometimes a little bruised emotionally, however I realize that I am very strong at my core. And during times that rock me, I need to remind myself that this too shall pass, and I will be just fine. It has caused me to totally examine every aspect of my life, make financial and living decisions differently, live more simply, and learn to trust the abundances in the Universe, they truly are there, if we just believe.
