9.9.19: A recent accomplishment with an ally makes you more appreciative of your solid relationship. However, your success is only part of the good news; developing a harmonious collaborative connection is the true prize. Friendship is a treasure in itself. It’s easy to forget how challenging it is to coordinate even the most mundane tasks with another person, much less a grand purpose. It’s perfectly acceptable to pat yourselves on the back and celebrate your work. Helen Keller said, “Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.”

9.8.19: Although blue skies seem to be heading in your direction, they are not as cloudless as you wish. Self-analysis may be fruitful if you are feeling disappointed because things aren’t turning out as planned. However, there’s no reason to sulk and be salty about how reality is falling short of your expectations. Perhaps your hopes weren’t as grounded as you believed. You might wonder whether to grant an endeavor or person another chance. Fortunately, critical new information is likely to reveal how to best proceed. Nothing is gained by impulsive negative judgments; give others the benefit of the doubt.

9.7.19: Exploring nostalgic times or rediscovering sentimental items with a friend could prove emotionally fulfilling today. It doesn’t matter if you attend a retrospective art exhibit, pour through old photo albums, or comb through a local vintage clothing store. A blast to the past can be a thoroughly enjoyable experience, especially when you journey back with a companion who sympathizes with your feelings. Ironically, a fascination with bygone times might lead you to cherish the present. You gain a better understanding of where you’re going by knowing where you’ve been. History is your most poignant teacher.

9.6.19: Your time and energy are finite resources. The truth is you’re not sure if you can come to the aid of an associate or ally today. Someone may request your help financially or emotionally, and you might not know if you possess the bandwidth to respond sufficiently. If your comrade becomes too clingy, be patient yet firm as you encourage them to fly on their own. In the final analysis, all you can do is to generously contribute what you can and wish them the very best. Muhammad Ali said, “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth.”

9.5.19: Networking proves a valuable investment now. You have a lot to offer the world around you; but you can give even more if you’re also willing to receive without the fear that ensuing obligations could restrict your freedom. Although you might prefer to accomplish everything on your own, only so much is possible before you need help to undertake larger endeavors. In spite of your self-sufficiency, involving others enables you to reap even sweeter rewards. An Ethiopian proverb states, “When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion.”

endeavor 【自動】〈文〉〔何かを達成しようと〕努める 【名】 〔決然とした〕努力

9.4.19: Clearing up a lingering misunderstanding is your top priority today. Sidestep your ego and all the indignant emotions that it could churn up to validate any posturing. The funny thing is it won’t ultimately matter who is right or wrong now. Your heart may be singing a different song very soon. Taking responsibility for your part in the current situation opens the door to reconciliation. Mystic poet Rumi wrote, “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right-doing there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about.”

9.3.19: A friend may need to receive some pointed advice from you today. However, you might be reluctant to give any because you don’t want to hurt their feelings. Thankfully, you can be kind as well as clear while you try to make a lasting and transformative impression. Usually, molding someone toward your vision of them leads down a road to negative consequences. Instead, support the best possible image they have for themselves by validating their worth. Be a partner, not a parent. Treat others with the same love and respect you wish to receive.
