Continuing on with my exploration of DAYS, Tuesdays are perfect days to harness fiery energy, helping you push forward, take action, and champion people and causes that inspire you. What lights your fire and how can you get closer to it?
I like to see if I can push a bit on this day – find some place where I feel a little (or a lot) stuck and see what I can do. When clients are feeling hopelessly mired I often suggest they just go ahead and take action, any kind of action just to get moving. Once you’re in motion you can course correct. And in the meantime you can get so much useful information. When you’re moving you rub up against what isn’t working – what isn’t a good fit any more. Where do the feet of your desired life rub against the shoes of your current situation?
I’ve got some house projects that need attention, and I haven’t made time for them all summer. And with summer winding down, I’m feeling a sort of internal pressing to get on with it. So I decided on a couple I’m willing to tackle; worked on one and bought the supplies for the other and blocked out time this weekend to do it. Yes! Forward action.
I like to think of Tuesdays as days to march openly under the banner of things you believe in. I can imagine myself in a crowd swept away in the collective enthusiasm of everyone moving forward. So it can be a good day to consider what causes you’re championing and take action on those as well. And because I believe that when we take action in many different ways that are vibrationally aligned to what we’re choosing to create we get there quicker, this can be a fun day to look at how you can be of service to others working on the same thing you are. So for instance, with my issue of the house needing some loving attention, it seemed like the perfect time to make a donation to Habitat for Humanity.
Tuesday is a great time to invoke fire energy as well. Just lighting candles can be nice, but it could also be a good time to do a fire release ceremony as well. It can be as simple as writing down what you’re choosing to release and burning it.
Thinking about fire ceremonies brought to mind that Burning Man begins next week. While I’ve never attended, there’s certainly something quite appealing about the whole concept. A week of art, costumes, a city that gets built and disappears in a matter of days, and of course, spectacular fire. Lots of Tuesday energy there. And thinking about Burning Man reminded me of another aspect of Tuesdays that often entertains my thoughts – superheroes.
If we’re busy moving forward, taking action, championing causes and people we believe in, doesn’t that just inspire thoughts of superheroes? Isn’t it fun to imagine what your superpower might be – whether it’s one you actually have or one you can imagine delighting in. And then of course thought must be given to your costume, because well who doesn’t want to have costumes?! I’m particularly fond of this one at the moment…
I’m not entirely sure what superpowers this costume expresses, but no doubt they’re awesome.
What did your Tuesday bring? And what did you bring to your Tuesday? I’d love the hear. And if you want to share your real or imagined superpowers I’d love to know those as well.
Thank you Deborah for these daily lessons….the fire in my day was creatively productive….as the temp outside rose to 115 I completed a project I have wanted to do for the fall season….my smile was bigger and my heart fuller having applied action …….I renewed my self …..thank you again for the jump start
I’m glad to hear you leveraged that fiery action energy Edy! And I also hope you managed to stay cool while doing it.
