Astrologist Rob Brezsny describes himself as a recovering save-the-world addict, who took his good intention to help fix the world into the realm of obsession, apparently to the detriment of his well-being. However, despite being in recovery, he believes he can still occasionally try to save the world a little bit, without getting strung out.
This week, he urges Aquarians to pursue our own zealotry, suggesting that we winterborn can’t feel totally healthy without a bit of obsession.
This is true. I love a deep dive into a project or research topic, but often indulge my current interest to the detriment of everything around (and within) me.
I struggle with it, but I strive for moderation in all things. If I imbibe enough to feel sated but not so much I feel exhausted or hungover, I know I’ve hit the sweet spot.
