Make Good Choices "Make good choices" is a phrase I use frequently in my daily astrological forecast, Astro-Weather. I use some variant of it when the energies are of the difficult persuasion. But making good choices is an option in all circumstances, difficult or positive. Oftentimes the hard part is remembering that we have choices. For most people most of the time, life just seems to happen. The good, the bad and the ugly parade past us at no apparent bidding of our own. If a comet hits the planet or if Dad gets that big promotion, then our life is affected for better or for worse through no action on our part. It is clear that we have no choice in some matters on the physical plane, but we should not let that obscure the choices that we do have. We may not be able to stop some vexing incident from occurring—but we can decide to get angry or to forgive. We can withhold or we can share. We can cry or laugh. Hinder or help. Look east or look west. I don't recall where I read it, but I remember a quote that goes something like: The sage has two prized possessions. He has his yes and he has his no. As we walk the Path and enter more into union with the One within, we become more aware of the choices before us. I love it when I catch myself in the middle of a habitual negative behavior and say no to it. In mid-emotion, we can choose the higher way. I am also learning to laugh and to go on when I realize I've screwed up. Even better than saying no to the negative is saying yes to the positive. We can choose to be happy, to be loving, to be well.
