Quiroga - 199

 EMPTY MOON

Rest, avoid forcing yourself to be efficient today, nor try too hard to achieve your desires, declare that today is a day out of time, in which you intentionally grant yourself the same peace that you would experience at the beginning of a long holiday, freeing yourself from any tasks and routines, without making you feel guilty for straying from your responsibilities.

Take advantage of the fact that today, in addition to being an Empty Moon all day, is also Saturday, and do as the Hebrews did, for whom Saturday is the sacred day of rest, in which the abandonment of effort is ritualized, however, take care that the behavior is not just formal, but an intention embodied by the way of thinking and feeling as well.

Only one thing is certain during the Empty Moon, it's better to deal with everything carefree than to let anxiety take over.

Carelessness is an intention put into practice, it is independent of the circumstances, which can eventually be torturous, but it reminds you of one important thing, you are not the circumstances, you are the inner being that chooses how to deal with the circumstances.

For those who just observe and make guesses, everything seems simple and easy to do, but for those with their hands working, there is no guess or observation that helps, the situation only evolves thanks to concrete effort. Nothing but that.
