Don’t take it personally.
They don’t mean it that way.
Does it really matter?
What am I afraid of?
Contributing to changes in behavior and irritability is the NORTHERN CORONAL HOLE: A hole in the sun's atmosphere has opened up and it is spewing solar wind into space. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory is monitoring the structure, which sprawls across nearly half of the sun's northern hemisphere. A coronal hole (CH), is a region where the sun's magnetic field peels back and allows solar wind to escape. A stream of solar wind flowing from this hole is expected to reach Earth on July 21st, bringing a 40% chance of geomagnetic activity. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras when the solar wind arrives. Details and picture at www.spaceweather.com. This is addition to the solar flares we’ve recently experienced. French scientist and doctor, Franz Mesmer, in his studies of magnetic fields on the human psychie, revealed how high concentrations of anions, which are negatively charged ions, dramatically influence the human body and brain.
The weather is hot and steamy, the solar flares and the Sun’s magnetic radiation intense. This means everyone’s aura is stimulated and compressed. Some react with fatigue, some with irritation, some with sleep. Some, though, are energized and are so busy with activities they wear others out. People can be more emotional than usual, meaning more touchy and taking things personally. Irritation is projected as grouchiness or criticism. Fatigue can be experienced as a desire to withdraw.
Some are prone to take the little things personally, when they may not be meant that way. Let’s say you tried to help a friend, and received a short, “no, I don’t need your help.” You could take it personally and become angry or be sad because you are not needed. What if you looked at what is going on in your friend’s life? Is your friend under stress or going through a difficult time? Was your friend trying to offend you, or thinking of their own circumstances? Understanding where they are coming from can help your feelings of anger or sadness. The Edgar Cayce readings counsel to help others when we feel sad or rejected.
Some people project their own misgivings or perceived shortcomings onto others, which takes prayerful attention. You need not take that personally, and understand it is their “stuff” projected, although it can be difficult.
The Course in Miracles has a philosophy that I’ve translated as “if I am not feeling love, what am I afraid of?” I’ve put this little exercise into action, with surprising revelations about myself. If you had a sad or angry reaction to anything, you could ask yourself: What am I afraid of? And does it really matter?
Does it really matter? In my long life, I’ve learned that most of what happens is not really important. When we pay attention to what is important, the little stuff takes care of itself.
This can be an interesting personal growth exercise.
