Little dabble in astrology, reset week and kiddo time.

This week has been a reset. It's been an odd week. Tackling a lot of inner feelings/emotions/re-assessing my life. All crammed into a few days. Today is a New Moon. Mars went retrograde last week in Aries. My moon rests in Aries. Depend on 2 charts I follow the first chart has it in my 2nd house of money/personal resources and the other it's in 3rd house of education/neighborhood/siblings (this one makes sense).

 Eitherway Our moon represents our inner world in a nutshell. Whatever your moon sign is this will often be the inner world your navigating that you don't always show the outside world. It's the workings of your mind/visions/way of thinking/perceiving the world. Our sun signs represent who we are in the outer world, what our outward representation of ourselves is.

 With Mars Retrograde in Aries any aspects in your chart pertaining to Aries may be feeling in kind of a funk right now. It's kind of creating a resistive pause, lack of movement, lack of direction, lack of knowing what the hell to do and no real motivation to make any progress right now.

(you can draw up your chart here: https://www.astro.com/horoscope?nhor=432608. 
Maya did a video in how to navigate this site and create your chart. She goes by Whole Sign house but the default mapping is Placidus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWXmyNhfU1Y&list=PL26dMraUeLWEFV4Q-HKimOvm6-xUstqV3&index=10
I bounce between sometimes. Whole house generally seems to be more accurate for me).

My finger is still tender at times and with certain usage. I should be cleared tomorrow to return to work sunday. I'm going to stay hopefully that it doesn't get re-injured like that again. It's my livelihood right now haha. 

I've had a little push again to devote more time to studying for the Mblex. I need to be committed to this and to passing it before I move to WI. Even if I don't plan to massaging full time or for main income I don't want to quit it completely. I'm also hoping to expand more on Craniosacral therapy in WI. This is ultimately an area I really prefer over Massage. But I think to practice Craniosacral therapy there I will need a massage license. To get my certification with my Teacher I also need to invest time to preforming it here. I have to get 20 logged cases, 15 cases with other practitioners and then i think 5 session with the teacher herself and read so many books to get an official certification with her. I have little certificates for the each class i've taken with her. But having a nice certificate through her would go an extra leg in my qualifications. Plus all the time spent practicing on people just ensures my strength in the field. 

I had a binder that I had created when I signed up for the Angel Studies course. 3 months in I realized that I didn't have the time nor interest to studying Tarot cards or specifics Archangels lol. Could have spent that money on better things but at the time I was really excited and invested in it. Then I had a sudden wake up one day that spending my time on that stuff was not my true calling and then I had a sudden urge to get rid of all my tarot stuff. 

So I was left with a binder that I had set up all nicely with dividers and so on. It felt wasted until I got the push to sit down and narrow in on what I need to study per the mblex guide. So I wrote out all the area i need to study and then divided those into the binder dividers. Just general organization for studying. I have this text book one of my teachers recommended years ago that she feels (still feels) is a great base resource for Massage Therapists. I'm going to be reading it through and using it as my main study reference. I got rid of all my books from massage school because I hated the organization of the books. The school created their own books and i felt they were lacking. 

So between this studying and using the ABMP test prep program i'm hoping by December i'll be able to test already. But I won't set up the test until I feel confident with it. One of my big things is The anatomy...specifically the specific origin/insertion points and then the biology stuff. Those are so detailed and not something i ever really got down. I know from a pictorial view where they are but by point names I don't. But I will.  



With this time off i've had all week with kiddo. We've been playing some games, mostly Uno and watching movies and shows like Mr. Bean. I've gotten the wave to decrease his computer time. He spends 4+ on the computer for school then was wasting the rest of the time on Youtube and Roblox. He was cranky, not moving much, and not playing at all with his toys. So now he only gets those on the weekends and for very limited time periods. The rest of the time he can watch PBS kids, netflix, play on his game systems or play with his toys or read books. So far it's going smoothly. This is how we lived (minus netflix) prior to Covid. Things changed once we got Internet at the house then it was just a slippery slope that i've been trying to rebound from. 


Parks finally reopened here. We have this park a few blocks from our house. They put new equipment in just before or around the time of the closures. It's been pretty hot here (90's-100's) so we haven't been outside much all summer/early fall but we popped over briefly yesterday after ice cream outing. He only made it  30 mins then we ran out of water and he got to hot. We were the only one's there yesterday.
