Poem
My soul and my destiny were written in the stars, on the moon and on the planets that aligned on the day and the very hour and minute I was born. As a child I wondered why I was the way I was. Why I liked to be alone, reading, always reading, Why I did not feel I had to follow what many other kids did “just because.” Or why I was so very conscientious, unwavering in habits and routines I dearly loved. Why did my life destiny veer so unexpectedly to include a second pathway - one of relishing the many things in life I find so fun! And why is the shy Virgo self of my childhood able now to be so outgoing? Why am I so open with nearly everyone I meet? I feel myself to be completely authentic, and I love that about myself. I stumbled onto astrology and later – numerology when I was in my teens. It explained a lot about me and also about others in my life. Thinking back, I should have taken it more seriously! Understanding relationships has so much to do with understanding others’ charts as well. All my life, I understood myself so very well. Although to really know myself, I did not need the chart or numbers - it’s in being able to explain the “why” of all the different parts of myself that has given me a way to make my good friends realize why they and I share such strong connections. In college I took pyschological evaluations. They supported what the Zodiac and numbers said about me too. Even the colors I am drawn to are bright and happy like the sunshine. What little melancholy is in me I owe to my September birth, for when that time draws nigh I see the sunlight fading in the sky and I become a bit more prone to sigh. . . June 14, 2018 For Caren Krutsinger's An Inner Knowing, An Absolute Feeling, My Mystical Soul Self Poetry Contest
