Today’s Mandala
Mysterious
“The most beautiful thing
— Albert Einstein
we can experience is the mysterious.
It is the source
of all true art and all science.
[One] to whom this emotion
is a stranger,
who can no longer pause
to wonder and stand rapt in awe,
is as good as dead:
[their] eyes are closed.”
“Today is the first day
— Kat Lahr
of the rest of your life.
The past is history.
The future is mysterious.
Then tomorrow—
this starts all over again.”
“The mystery of human existence
— Fyodor Dostoevsky
lies not in just staying alive,
but in finding something to live for.”
Today’s MotD inspires us to embrace the energies of the Octopus totem. From WhatisMySpiritAnimal.com about the octopus it states: “On a spiritual level Octopus represents our willpower and focus. Octopus Spirit is very wise and smart, having the skills to get out of sticky situations. Octopus looks at circumstances, adapts, flexes and then finds a strategic way to fix things or make them better.”
Our challenge becomes tapping into this higher vibrational energy for insights and guidance instead of trying to do everything ourselves. From Kristen M. Stanton of Uniguide.com she states: “octopus spirit animal also reminds you that while you may be a natural caregiver, it’s important to take time for regeneration, to heal your depleted resources so that you can be renewed…[it also] reminds you that you should never focus on your limitations. There are infinite ways you can transform your life to achieve your dreams.”
