A Rose Grew In Chaos: The Sequel
So, there was still one more major thing in my life that needed to be transformed before Pluto entered Aquarius on my glorious half b-day in 2023. The next area of my life that needed some Plutonian-transformation was regarding my career. Specifically, my relationship with my corporate employer. In my debut novel Journey Through Ascension: An Astrological Memoir, a major topic is that which surrounds my career as an accountant in corporate America for the last decade and a half.
“When people ask me if I’m happy with my career, I say that I enjoy being in accounting because I’d rather deal with numbers rather than people when it comes to my 9-5. My career in finance and accounting has allowed me to do just that. It always keeps me comfortable, which is great, but it will never get me on the journey towards complete spiritual fulfillment.” - Journey Through Ascension: An Astrological Memoir
My career ended up hitting a major crossroad on March 9th 2023.
So I finally decided to surrender.
“Surrender is the simple but profound wisdom of yielding to rather than opposing the flow of life.” – Eckart Tolle
I unapologetically had to put myself first in order for my Libra scales to balance the relationship I had developed with my employer.
“Sometimes we give too much of ourselves to others. When this happens, selfishness becomes justified and can carry a positive vibration rather than a negative one. Whatever energy we give of ourselves, we deserve to have reciprocated in some way, shape, or form. In our hearts, we all know when we are justified in our selfish behavior and when we are abusing our selfish behavior.” - Journey Through Ascension: An Astrological Memoir
I never stepped foot back into my former employer’s office or logged in remotely again. Not being completely sure of my next move, I prioritized my focus towards pouring into my cup rather than having my cup depleted by others. I was taking another step towards living in my truth.
“The truth is that all truths have an expiration date. Similar to our time on this planet. Many things that were true a thousand years ago are not true today. We all have our own truths to uncover and discover.” - Journey Through Ascension: An Astrological Memoir
