Bonito Living

Getting down to Easter week emotions run high. You make plans, holidays carefully planned and expectations of a slower time. But sometimes things don’t go as planned, long lines of traffic, plans altered and all look a bit chaotic. In those moments is where love needs to be invoked and “shower them with love”. I mean, in this times of pandemia (we are not really out of the woods) is so important to shower people around us with love; not only it is a nice thing to give, but emotional investment Pat high dividends.

Many of us are going through changes: big or small. It can range from changing habits to moving homes, starting new projects or redefining our career or emotional paths. We may be feeling: “it’s now or never” in order to gather the energy to take the plunge. Although there is always a “tomorrow” this attitude can be a good propeller for those changes.

This week the astrologists are talking about ab auspicious conjunction of planets in which every encounter counts: “dates with destiny”. By the same conjunction, it seems that this is a time for rewards and recognitions: at work, in o it social group or even our own self “recognition at last”. It’s all about “searching for sparkle” in our everyday lives. Which ties nicely with last week homework of keeping a diary of joy.

This time the idea is to consider every aspect of our lives as “material” for creative endeavours. We are a rich depository of experiences and emotions, all unique and special. The talent of writers and other creatives is to find that sparkle in the quotidian, in conversations and in our own perception and experiences. These materials are all about us: the experience of the spring light shining as it was a new solar star; the tender conversation between friends you spied in the bus stop; the images of a colourful dream; the phrase that can inspire an entire new project; the emotion awaken by the memory of a smell…. It’s all material!!

So the creative oracle homework today is to have a diary of “materials” . Just keep your eyes and ears alert, everything counts. Keep your diary and take notes. A tip for this is “do not judge”, this is to stop your inner judge/editor from disposing of what could be a good morsel, just because at first it looks I significant or even silly. The purpose is to gather material: phrases, images, our own feelings, conversations, everything counts!

As ever, please share your “material”‘in social media with the #creatiBeoracle #crearibehomework
