Born Today?
A reading for your birthday. Gemini season.
He meant doing things not because we were expected to do them or had always done them or should do them but because we wanted to do them
Joan Didion
You have a private rule that no one else knows about, something you follow without explaining it to anyone, and this year is asking whether you still want it or whether you are just tired of defending it. The rule made sense when you made it, but rules that live in secret have a way of hardening into habits that serve no one, not even you. Some of them were never rules at all, just reactions to something that happened once that you decided would not happen again. The year ahead will show you the difference between the boundaries that still fit and the ones you are keeping because you forgot you made them. The interesting discovery will not be which rules to keep, but how quickly you can let go of the ones that stopped making sense without having to justify the change to anyone else.
