  | | Contributing To The Collective | Cancer Horoscope September 30, 2020 You may wonder today how you can lend a hand toward helping others expand their awareness. Perhaps you feel inclined to share your insights that come from your wealth of personal experiences. Doing this could help someone in need of guidance on how to move forward on their path. The things you could share might possibly bring them to a new level of understanding. Think about sharing your wisdom freely today, especially if it pertains to life matters where you feel blessed, knowledgeable, or grateful.
When we wish to help others expand their awareness, we can do so by sharing our insights and experiences with them. Personal growth is a product of experience. When we share our stories with others, we are contributing to their personal development. Our experiences give them additional insights that can help illuminate their personal journeys. We may even save them the time and effort of making the mistakes we've already made. Our experiences can serve other people's growth as much as our own, and we contribute to the transformation of the human collective every time we transform ourselves. We also can see how far we've come down our paths, when we see how much more we now offer to others. Allow others to drink from your fountain of wisdom today, and you will be doing them an invaluable service. |

 | | Bitterness |
by Madisyn Taylor It is natural to feel resentment or anger when life does not unfold as expected. We consciously or unconsciously anticipated one experience, and we grieve for the loss of it when the universe puts something else in our path. Most of the time, we work through these feelings and they pass. Occasionally, our anger and resentment do not fade and are instead transformed into bitterness. Bitter feelings allow us to become perfect victims in that we no longer feel obliged to work toward healing and choose instead to identify with our pain. Yet as unwholesome as bitterness can be, it is also a natural element of our emotional palette. When we acknowledge that it is okay to feel bitter, we reconnect with our hurt in a constructive way and can begin the process of working through it.
The nature of bitterness is rooted in the fact that the pain we feel provides us with a rationale. We may feel that we deserve to embrace our bitterness to its full extent. And to be bitter is, in essence, to cut ourselves off from all that is positive, hardening our hearts and vowing never to let go of our hurt. But just as bitter feelings can be self-defeating, so too can the release of bitterness be life-affirming in a way that few other emotional experiences are. When we decide that we no longer want to be bitter, we are reborn into a world filled with delight and fulfillment unlike any we knew while in the clutches of bitterness. The veil it cast over our lives is lifted, letting light and warmth touch our souls.
Divesting yourself of bitter feelings can be as simple as truly forgiving and moving on. Even when your bitterness has no concrete object, you can forgive situations too. Healing pain can be challenging but may be easier if you remind yourself that you are the only entity truly affected by your emotional state. In time, you will discover that letting go of your bitterness frees you to initiate the healing process and allows you to once again celebrate the possibility of the more wonderful life you deserve. |

| | Beauty of Diversity | Cancer Horoscope September 29, 2020 You could find it easier to accept others' viewpoints today, which may make you more tolerant of opinions and beliefs that differ from yours. Embracing differences could be a way for you to gain a deeper sense of connection with others, which then may help you to transform your own view of the world. Perhaps today you could watch a foreign film or delve into the literature of another culture in order to see your life through a different lens. You may realize that coming into contact with other ways of thinking through cross-cultural experiences can expose you to new ideas and give you enough perspective to appreciate what you most value about your own points of view and experiences.
Going beyond our own cultural experiences opens our world and expands the boundaries of our belief systems. By coming into contact with ways of thinking that are different from our own, we begin to see that often we limit ourselves, for our thoughts about the world are often derived by remaining within the confines of our cultural norms. Stepping outside our culture, however, lets us see that there is so much more to the world than what we previously had realized; the beauty of our world comes from the diversity that is contained within it, which in turn gives us a greater sense of empathy and understanding of others' differences. Opening yourself to the variety that exists in this world will bring you to a deeper acceptance of other ways of being today. |

 | | Belly Laughs |
by Madisyn Taylor As children, we laugh hundreds of times each day, delighted by the newness of living. When we reach adulthood, however, we tend to not allow ourselves to let go in a good belly laugh. Inviting laughter back into our lives is simply a matter of making the conscious decision to laugh. Though most of us are incited to laugh only when exposed to humor or the unexpected, each of us is capable of laughing at will. A laugh that comes from the belly carries with it the same positive effects whether prompted by a funny joke or consciously willed into existence. When our laughter comes from the core of our being, it permeates every cell in our physical selves, beginning in the center and radiating outward, until we are not merely belly laughing but rather body laughing.
Laughter has been a part of the human mode of expression since before evolution granted us the art of speech. Through it, we connected with allies while demonstrating our connection with people we didn't know. In the present, laughter allows us to enjoy positive shared experiences with strangers and loved ones alike. Yet solitary laughter carries with it its own slew of benefits. An energetic and enthusiastic bout of whole-body laughter exercises the muscles, the lungs, and the mind in equal measure, leaving us feeling relaxed and content. When we laugh heartily at life's ridiculousness instead of responding irritably, our focus shifts. Anger, stress, guilt, and sadness no longer wield any influence over us, and we are empowered to make light of what we originally feared. Laughter also opens our hearts, letting love and light in, changing our perspective, and enabling us to fix our attention on what is positive in our lives.
It is easy to laugh when we feel good, but it is when the world appears dim that we most need laughter in our lives. Our laughter then resonates through our hearts, filling the empty spaces with pure, unadulterated joy. We regain our footing in the moment and remember that no sorrow is powerful enough to rob us of our inborn happiness. When we understand that uninhibited laughter is the food of the soul, nourishing us from within, we know instinctively that life is worthwhile. |
