Born Today?
A reading for your birthday. Cancer season.
Nobody knows what another person is thinking. They may imagine they do, but they are nearly always wrong.
Agatha Christie
There is a particular quality of quiet that comes not from the absence of something but from the presence of something you are finally ready to hold. You have been carrying conversations in your head with people who are not in the room, filling their side of the dialogue with words they never said and feelings they never showed you. The year ahead asks you to let those imagined voices go quiet so you can hear what is actually being offered and what is actually being asked of you. This means sitting with the uncomfortable truth that you cannot know what someone else needs from you until they tell you, and you cannot give them what they need until you stop giving them what you think they should want. The silence that opens when you stop filling it with your own guesses is not empty. It is the space where real conversation becomes possible.
