Intuition

Cultivating inner knowing

A question currently animating me about the inner life/spirit is:

what does it mean to miss someone but not let it consume me?

A question currently animating me about the outer world/universe/multiverse is:

What do different constellations look like from different cultures?

The practices I’m finding most helpful at the moment are:

Creating Music/Art, Time in Nature

A moment I noticed my inner light kindled this month was:

Reconnecting with old family friends. We played games and did tarot and I felt very held and seen by them.

A moment I noticed my inner light dwindled this month was:

I’ve felt very conflicted in this time where many of my friends are leaving for college. My family planned the large chunk of our vacation for this time, which means I am not at home and around my community. Many of my friends I won’t have proper goodbyes with.

Courage

Aligning action

Assumptions I'm examining right now are:

Time/Attention

I originally assumed:

I used to think I needed to give what was wanted from me in order to receive the time and attention I wanted.

These assumptions are changing:

Now I sense that there is a balance. I need to uphold the boundaries around time and attention that the people I care about want from me in order to continue that relationship, but I also need to listen to the places that spark the most joy for me.

A moment I stepped out of my comfort zone this month was:

Spending three consecutive weeks with my family was hard especially when I felt like I was missing out on a lot socially, but I know how much it means to them and having fun goofy moments with them has been very nourishing. It is interesting to see my parents as people.

Compassion

Engaged Empathy

A peer in The Flight School community I am grateful to is:

Edom Tadesse

My message of thanks to them is:

Thank for chatting with me and reaching out! I really love hearing about your drawing and boxing and I hope that they continue.

Something that is helping me build trusting relationships here is:

Calling as soon as I can with people who reach out to me.

Digital Detox Retreat

Number of days I've gone without technology
