Today's Horoscope
All signs:
The stars want to remind you that there is still plenty of magic left in the world. Sometimes it seems like life is a grind, and that there's nothing new or exciting or even good anymore. That's never the case.
Most of the time when we feel this way, we are in a bad state of mind overall. We are overworked, or brokenhearted and lonely, or we're unhappy with the state of the world. Maybe we just hit a bad stretch of luck, or we lose someone close, or we're just in a rut. We tend to retreat into ourselves, or build walls when we have to deal with things like that.
That's human nature, that's how we feel safe and like we have some control, but it's not good to stay there for long. Soon, we won't be able to see any magic in the world because while closing ourselves off from the bad, we also keep out the good.
Magic doesn't just show up when you need it, like in some fairytale or movie, most of the time you have to search for it. It's usually not a long search either, you just need to pick yourself up and get out there. The thing about magic is that it's hard to define, so most often we don't even know what we're looking for. Our idea of magic is hardly ever realistic, so we should not go looking for a specific sign or occurrence. One of the biggest aspects of magic is surprise and wonder, and how are you going to get that if you spend your life looking for something you've already envisioned in your head?
The secret to finding magic is to experience as many things as you can, and there are endless things out there to experience. Travel, try new things, even if it's just shopping at a different store or eating at a new restaurant. There are books, movies, music, art, a million things you haven't exposed yourself to. Science, history, museums; classes you can take that might open your eyes on a whole new way to see the world. There are people out there that can inspire and astound you, and they live right in your hometown. No matter who you are, you have only met a tiny, minuscule fraction of a percentage point of the people in this world. And if you have decided that most of them are not worth your time, perhaps it is because you are traveling in the same circles you have been your whole life. Maybe you are closing yourself off from others because you are insecure, and don't think you'll fit in with other people that you perceive as smarter, or more refined or successful, or more talented in a certain area than you.
That's just fear holding you back. You're never going to know who you are or where you belong until you experience as much as you can. By doing more and getting out there, you will find wonder and stumble on magic everywhere.
The stars want you to know that magic is all around you, just waiting for your to discover it. It's in nature, in people, in art, in many places you might never think to look. The more you do, the more you'll find, and in doing so you might just create your own magic along the way.
Because every single one of us is magic, whether we can see it or not. We're just waiting to discover it and be astounded along with everyone else.
