Mirrors
As part of taking stock of ourselves this week, if we’re struggling to figure out what behaviors need our attention…start noticing the people that trigger us or bother us the most. They offer us the first clues as to where to look within ourselves…because they mirror that which we can’t see or don’t want to see in ourselves.
For instance:
If we’re triggered by dishonesty…where in our lives are we being dishonest…with others as well as ourselves?
If we’re triggered by injustice…where in our lives are we being unfair…with others as well as ourselves?
If we’re triggered by rudeness…where in our lives are we being inconsiderate…with others as well as ourselves?
See how that works? It’s annoying, I know because we’d like to think that the “other person” is in the wrong…and yet if we allow ourselves to go there, we just might find a nugget of insight that reveals to us our variation of the the trigger…now we can begin the process of healing it.
How about you? Ready to start looking in the “mirror”.
BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day
Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.
Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.
Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.
