Born Today?
A reading for your birthday. Taurus season.
He switched off the light, came back and sat in the chair. In the darkness, Liesel kept her eyes open. She was watching the words.

What scares you is the possibility of success, and how much of yourself you might have to give up to keep what you fought so hard to get. The fear lives right next to the ambition because they are looking at the same future from different angles. One sees the arrival, the other sees the price of staying arrived. You have spent months or years building toward something that would change your life, and now you are close enough to see that it would also change you in ways you cannot predict or control. The wanting has already begun to reshape how you move through your days, what you pay attention to, who you call when you need to think out loud. The year ahead will ask whether you can hold what you have been reaching for without letting it hold you back from the next reach.
