Somebody didn't sleep enough lately and that might very well be us. So let's not be overly enthusiastic this day and let us try to work a little rest into our schedule. Just a nap in the afternoon might be enough to get us through the day. Followed by an early night, and tomorrow we'll be as good as new. (confession: this is about me, this is so about me!)

The leader of yesterdays daily cast can finally move on! No more contemplating or weighing pros and cons: they have come to an conclusion. They know that not taking action is also a choice, but one in which agency dissipates, leaving no other option than to follow somebody else's decision. So instead, with our help, they have taken matters in our their hand. With the Ally on the table to empower our sword, this is the right thing to do! And do not forget: this leader we are talking about might be us!

We are looking for somebody who can take the lead. Not a bully that uses scare-tactics to pummel their people into submission, but a benign, intelligent leader who will do their absolute best to facilitate the people into becoming the best versions of themselves. A leader who concerns themselves about the wellbeing of the community. And we might just find such a person one of these days. The Raven Coins are optimistic about it! 

Our physical health requires some extra care today. This cast doesn't necessarily alert us to a major issue but it does make us aware of a potential problem. So let's make time to have some healthy food, take our vitamins and make sure we find a balance between relaxing and exercise. Maybe a little stroll through nature if we are able. Don't worry about it to much; worrying itself is bad for our health. ;)

The Crystal Skull has a clear message for us today: if we want to know more about anything, we need to get educated. Not by Tik-Tok or Insta, not by you-tube, not even by our friends or family, but simply by going to school en get ourselves a formal education. So, how about finally enrolling in that course we wanted to do, or going to that series of lectures we had our eye on? There is so much real knowledge in the world that we can access, it is amazing! So let us enjoy some.

Stuff needs to be dealt with this weekend and we know exactly how to do it.  We know the job, we have the skills and we own the necessary tools. So let's not get entangled in meetings and deliberations on how this task is going to be approached. If everybody just leaves it to us, it will get done and we can enjoy the rest of the weekend. So let's not be shy and just say to people; "don't worry, I will handle this". 

In every situation there are two distinct positions we can occupy: either we look at it up close, maybe even from the inside, or we take a step back and observe the issue from a distance. The cast of today urges us to do just that: to detach ourselves from the situation we are in to gain a different perspective. So let us shift our position in order to find new input from there. 

Most of us are familiar with the idea that it is sometimes necessary to shed the old to make way for the new. Whatever it is, it has to come to an end and, if we are honest about it, that is not altogether a bad thing.  Sometimes things can drag out too long. In the ending of it there is the seed of a new beginning. So let us mourn for that what we lost and than rejoice in that what is yet to come. This is going to end and it ends well.

Let's not be shy and just see the job through. 

We know what needs to be done so let's just take the lead in this project; someone has to do it and we are perfectly suited for the job. It doesn't have to be big and world-changing; organizing the local BBQ or collecting a contributions for a friend's birthday present are good examples of smaller projects we can take on. But if we want to tackle a bigger task, today is a good day to put ourselves in the spotlight for it. Our leadership qualities are without challenge.

"If only I had the talent", or, "I will never be as good as..." We are our own worst critics, we don't dare to take up painting, or to sing or to dance and constantly worrying if the result is aesthetically pleasing to others. If only we could be playful and creative like a child every now and again, enjoying ourselves without holding back! It is important to create moments in our lives in which we can express ourselves, unencumbered, without boundaries, as free as a the Gods intended us to be. Let's find s moment of creative joy today and let making moments like that into a hobby! 

We need the Sun to warm us and make our crops grow. Which hemisphere we live in doesn't matter: either the Sun is a radiant presence in our lives in height of summer or the Sun is greeting us briefly in a season of coldness, either way we welcome it's life-giving warmth. Let us use today to celebrate the simple pleasures in life; the sun on our face, the song of a bird, a glass of clean water. Don't over-complicate life, just try to enjoy it today!
