As a child, and until about 30, I was 150% aware of others -  their expectations and judgments. I shaped my personality and responses to please others. I grew up in a family of daily verbal or physical violence. I protected myself by either being invisible or being sure I did not oppose or challenge. Another sibling's opposition and defiance resulted in
parental verbal and physical abuse.

Lots of spiritual and psychological growth and life experience - now at 60, I am aware of what others think, but almost never does that change the way I am or what I say.
Fairness is huge for me -  a libra moon and rising , and a life  focus which includes human rights. I would rather be fired than not report abuse or kiss ass - so I function as a protector/advocate for myself and others. Just emerged from a hospital experience of tremendous violatons of patients' rights. One nurse secretly thanked me for
reporting the violations - she said most had not. I know the issues and the system, so for me it is easy. Initially, was not so easy. I remember sitting on my opinions out of fear of rejection. My reference point then was other human beings only. Now, I report to my Higher Self, the Divine, and my standards and integrity  - the highest truth, light, love, wisdom, humor. Every time now I receive a negatve experence or opinon, it is followed up by an incredible postive experience. I care about my personal treatment as well as that of others who do not have a voice. Some who inspire me:  Ralph Nader, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King,Wangari Mathai, Marianne Wlliamson, Arundhati Roy, John Perkins, Lynn Twist, Hopi, Huichol, Bear Heart, Rolling Thunder, Carl Jung, Dalai Lama, Muhammad Yunus, Ashoka, Kiva, Barack Obama, Oprah, Guadalupe, Christ, All Religions of Compassion, Peace, Love, Forgiveness, Quan Yin, Earth Justice, Amnesty International, CARF, Afroreggae, War Dance, Amma.

Take a look at least at the Sun, Moon, and Rising positions to get a feel for the accuracy of astrology. My Sun Gemini, Moon and Rising Libra ,fit perfectly. Then,the aspects, positive and challenging, say SO much. Astrology is indeed a very importantand accurate tool. You can get a chart for about $5.00 (used to be $3.50) through the mail -and use books (library) to help you with the interpretations if you would like to do it budget style.I had an ARE (Assoc. for Research and Enlightenment) chart done for about $20.00 that was excellent. Astrology.com is a great site too.

FUNDING FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS

Half the time totally unstructured. The other half searching for and downloading additional music to use for my Dance Move Dance Event  -  Music and Dance for Celebration, Healing,
Transformation, Inspiration.

I am living my ideal day EXCEPT that I am not 100% honoring my body's need for
movement, exercise. Was 0% at the worst of late....now 60%....this is a recent
pattern. I am 60. For 20 years did the right thing (exercise,movement)....I KNOW that I must
fix my wiley ways or pay a price I do not want to pay. WHY I am not at 100%?
Momento...will shift gears and seek answer: ......OK... 1) Bad Habit 2) Flaw in
Persian Carpet Belief = All else is working - there has to be something wrong
with me since I am human......BOTH beliefs...OK, Put in the grinder of process:
When I have awareness of stress, tension, pain in my body I will assume my
body is trying to tell me something, ie: MOVE STUPID! When I think:
I will subject my body, my body can wait, I am better than my body, who cares
if I compromise my walking ability (I am a vVsionary doing important stuff that
is more important than my body - put my body on the cross after all....In the
face of all this mental chatter, justification, dismissal, I stand for
a balanced Body, Emotions, Mind Spirit to better serve my life purpose
and my Self/self. It is done.
This is a slight variation on the Vision Force process.
Oh yes, then there is nutrition...I am at 75-80% of ideal...True confessions.
