In November, Expect the Unexpected

Your monthly metaphysical forecast by ANDREW KUTCHERA

This month we have the opportunity to learn about ourselves, with a particular focus on how we handle surprises and sudden change. Try to remain unruffled when presented with disorienting information. Prioritize a nimble outlook and a flexible schedule. As trite as it sounds, it's best to go with the flow. 

Rather than swirling in worry, take practical steps to fortify yourself and your home. Note your resources. Rearrange your furniture. Donate belongings. Dust off what you haven’t used in a while. Bake a cake! Appreciate all the abundance that you have.

In your career or with your finances, avoid grandiose plans. Focus on pragmatic and modest steps. Shelve long-range goals for the time being, working only on what you can accomplish in the coming few weeks. Work diligently, bypassing self-flagellation. Congratulate yourself with any modest victories.

Considering global and local events could be topsy-turvy, we will need to reflect on our reactivity. Make a habit of breathing deeply. Ground yourself as often as possible. Avoid snapping at anyone, and particularly at those who you encounter in passing. Our retorts will have more to do with our frustrations than specific people. Temper your mood swings. Have patience with yourself and others.

Now is the time to develop a disciplined routine with a creative practice. Do it for yourself, deciding to live authentically. In pursuing your passions, you just might find this flow impacts your relationships. Some might become fraught, which will require a reanalysis. Others will become healthier and allow for greater ease. You are finding your footing to speak with more confidence, as you bring your life into balance.

Finally, incorporate as much humor as possible into each day. Seek or observe what’s absurd, and giggle away stress. Make a point to find comedic YouTube videos. Watch a flurry of them, reorienting your perspective. Life can be painful but it also contains a bounty of joy. Take steps so that you reignite your happiness and sense of purpose.

Here are some questions to ask yourself: where am I feeling off kilter? Can I decide to remain calm even though change is on the horizon? Am I too rigid in my current schedule, and can I loosen my grip on my forthcoming plans? How do I feel about my home and resources? Can I take a tally and move things around? Am I fully appreciating what I currently have? What modest steps am I called to do? Can I release self-criticism, instead celebrating what is going smoothly? Where do I feel most anchored and safe? Can I spend more time there? Can I also breathe deeply, deciding to remain calm in tense interactions? Am I able to practice patience consistently? What creative projects are exciting to me? Can I prioritize them for my own joy? How can I incorporate more laughter? Am I able to embody light-heartedness, even in the throws of unpredictability? Wishing you a wonderful month.
