Weekly Numerology: The 35th Week of the Year...

The thirty-fifth week of the year is influenced by the planet Saturn and the archetype of “Strength”. Saturn comes in after the eclipse season to slow us down and turn our hearts and minds inward. It is a week to put ourselves back together and get organized. Saturn always comes with deep lessons, as it is the planet of teaching and learning. We can attain mastery from learning the knowledge that Saturn brings us when we are listening and paying attention. There is a time to work hard and put out energy, and there is a time to pay attention to personal needs by taking breaks, moving slower, and taking the opportunity to reach a place of moderation. Saturn prefers to take time. "Strength" is an archetype that helps us find that spark inside that gently guides us through obstacles and away from self-destruction. It helps us unlock our hidden power and the unconscious parts of who we are that help us rise out of our fears. This archetype helps us release past conditioning in order to align the self with a sense of Love and understanding. We are stronger when we are patient, kind, gentle, and disciplined in our actions and behaviors. When we can find the middle ground between our animalistic and angelic sides, we are able to find harmony and strength to endure life's ups and downs. "Strength" is here to help us realize and embrace how powerful we are, and how we can use that power to help ourselves and others in the most profound ways. This week asks us to use less outward force, but instead to focus more on our inner alignment. When we choose how we wish to use our most valuable gift of energy every day, we are able to move closer to self-mastery and away from things we may be trying to force happen.

The waning moon offers us the opportunity to tie up loose ends. It's the best week to get organized, to clean, to finish projects that have been left undone, and to strengthen the very foundation that our most valuable creations grown from. It is also a great week to take the one to three things that feel completely draining and bring them to conclusion. This could be needed conversations, unfinished work, or any task that has been put off for way too long. We have to be able to make room for what is really important in order to help ourselves manifest more success, happiness, and inner strength. There is an opportunity available to us when we take a pause. A slower pace can help us produce better work than we might have created out of a rushed, more stressful urgency. To have discipline doesn't necessarily mean that we can do everything, and do it quickly. It is more about what we can do with consistency and integrity by showing up as our best that matters the most. This can have more to do with healthy boundaries, clarity, honesty, and being present. We don't gain more strength when we push ourselves harder, but instead from when we are taking care of ourselves from the inside out. Getting consistent rest, exercise, water, clean foods, and downtime are all ways to find balance and feel more energy with less depletion. True strength is applied to the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of the self. We can begin each day this week with one important question, "What does my mind, body, heart, and soul need from me today?". The answer to that question is the best way to decide how the day should go, and it is one step closer to cultivating true "Strength".
