You can learn from the past and imagine a beautiful future, but you must live in the here-and-now.
Whenever you set your sights too far ahead, you run the risk of losing your footing, for rarely do the present and future match up exactly on the Enchanted Map that is your life story. The future has no substance right now; it is a place that has no grounding as of yet. You can’t live there, yet you can take measured steps towards a goal or a dream. These steps are important now.
The same goes for nostalgia. You can look into the past wistfully and remember the beautiful moments or revisit lessons learned. However, you can’t live there, nor can you go back and change what was. Yesterday is gone forever. Live fully in the present. The “now” is the most powerful place to put your attention. It’s magic reaches out in every direction, further than the heart and soul can see.
It seems that we’ve been getting reminders to stay in the present a lot lately and it really does make sense. Honestly as a Mom it’s one of the biggest things that I keep telling my children when they come to me with worries about the future. We have to take this day by day because the situation is changing day by day. Stay here, stay present and just walk through things minute by minute, hour by hour and day by day. We don’t need to try to predict what’s going to happen in the future or change the past. Right now it’s important that we are able to enjoy where we are right now. <3 Spend some extra time today focusing on the moment and things that you can do to enjoy today. Have some fun! It’s Saturday!
Have a magickal day!
Much Love and Many Blessings,
